2. Be civil
- Understand the difference between a joke and an insult.
- Do not harrass or attack users for any reason. This includes using blanket terms, like "every user of thing".
- Don't get baited into back-and-forth insults. We are not animals.
- Leave remarks of "peasantry" to the PCMR community. If you dislike an OS/service/application, attack the thing you dislike, not the individuals who use it. Some people may not have a choice.
- Bigotry will not be tolerated.
3. Post Linux-related content
- Including Unix and BSD.
- Non-Linux content is acceptable as long as it makes a reference to Linux. For example, the poorly made mockery of
sudoin Windows. - No porn, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
4. No recent reposts
- Everybody uses Arch btw, can't quit Vim, <loves/tolerates/hates> systemd, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

We all have our opinions, and certain public figures can be divisive. Keep in mind that this is a community for memes and light-hearted fun, not for airing grievances or leveling accusations. - Keep discussions polite and free of disparagement.

The child already looks tired of the bullshit that happens with Linux. A few days ago I discovered that I had either a 6 or 8 gigabyte swap file. I have 20 gigs of ram already, and was running out of a 32 GB SD card...
What?
you're using an SD card as swap space? not sure how to interpret this
I'm using an SD card as a temporary main storage. I could technically put in an ssd, but I lost/broke the part where a screw would go to hold it in place (it's a strange laptop...), so the only option I would have is to tape it, and I don't feel comfortable letting it potentially flop around in there... As for what a swap file is (that's the name I found for it), it is virtual memory. It was reserving that space to use as RAM if need be, when I already have 2/3rds as much ram as storage.
You don't have to make a swap partition while partitioning your disk π
