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.

6. (NEW!) Regarding public figures

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.

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.

I deleted Galaxy Store on my Android through adb but still the meme holds its point.

Can't proper AOSP delete system apps? I know essentially all phones come locked down but is there anything in base Android itself that precludes this? Just grab the su binary and Bob's your uncle.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Any rooted phones can delete system apps, at least I've been able to on older Android versions, I've heard newer Android versions make it harder but I haven't tried on those because I haven't had the need to.

Try running two applications that require different versions of a package on linux. fun

Like Linux might be the best for choosing when to update, but everytime I've HAD to update, it's more because of a new hellish problem that I need to resolve, where as Windows/Apple works as expected.

Add to that the forced update on Windows are security updates. Linux doesn't force security updates which means if you're not keeping on top of it, your linux system has security issues that have hopefully been patched already, but you're not on the latest.

Also same reason I'm ok with Android not allowing roll back, but I DO fucking mind that my 64 gig phone had 10 gigs of System space... and now has 22 gigs of system space because of updates/bloat.

And that's also before I start talking about Python and assholes who don't use virtual enviroments, and requirement files... Sorry sorry, not technically linux specifically, but god damn that's a huge pet peeve.

And people still use python2!!!!!!. Ok I'll stop now,. But holy shit that bothers me.

Try running two applications that require different versions of a package on linux

Either you use your distribution package system, or you don't. If you're using it, everything should work fine. Outside of that, it's actually really easy to manually cherry pick one or two dependencies for a specific application. Of course these days people have made off the shelves solution to address that, too.

Linux doesn’t force security updates

Well, Linux doesn't force anything. The userspace running on it, on the other hand… Well, it still doesn't force it on you. But on a fresh ubuntu install, unattended updates for security patch do run automatically by default.

Python

Python.

“Windows works as expected”

Except that my network drive is no longer accessible, forever. Oh and 2 of my printers.
