Community rules (click to expand)

1. Follow the site-wide rules

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 sudo in 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.
    • 5. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§ Language/язык/Sprache
  • This is primarily an English-speaking community. πŸ‡¬πŸ‡§πŸ‡¦πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ
  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.
  • Titles and post bodies written in other languages will be allowed, but only as long as the above rule is observed.
    • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe 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.
  • We are never in possession of all of the facts. Defamatory comments will not be tolerated.
  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.
    •  

    Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    Important: never execute code or follow advice that you don't understand or can't verify, especially here. The word of the day is credibility. This is a meme community -- even the most helpful comments might just be shitposts that can damage your system. Be aware, be smart, don't remove France.

    Never have seen any .exe that logs anything. They're literally black boxes.

    Got to love the installer that requires a GUI

    [–] pogmommy@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 1 month ago

    And it helpfully installs a scareware antivirus that changes your default search engine so you don't have to go through the trouble!

    Debugging requires hard liquor.

    [–] earphone843@sh.itjust.works 17 points 1 month ago (1 children)

    I've found that 3 beers over an hour period is my sweet spot for debugging. But I would definitely need liquor to debug wine.

    [–] ignotum@lemmy.world 5 points 1 month ago

    If I had to pick bugs out of my wine I would probably also switch to drinking liquor instead

    [–] ikidd@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

    Way ahead of you.

    Just don't write bugs LOL

    Tried to debug a flatpak

    downloads 6GB of devel stuff, tries to open a file in gdb, cries

    Finds out it is a kernel bug.

    Tries to get debug logs, even though that stuff is disabled "fOr sEcUrItY hArDeNinG"

    (Kernel 6.13 is a mess)

    .13

    Well there's your problem.

    (Not 13 specifically. Just the odd numbered sub-version in general. But 13 if you're superstitious, I guess.)

    [–] boredsquirrel@slrpnk.net 13 points 1 month ago

    Lol

    Btw the issue was fixed upstream, Arch and Fedora have updates

    "Is this 'Critical Error' the reason for the crash, or just another ill-labeled exception?"

    I love WINE and it's forks, but man, how can any program produce so many errors during optimal operation? (A rhetorical question, as I believe we all know the tragicomedic reason being Microsoft)

    I'm more of a beer person myself.
