- 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.
- Don't come looking for advice, this is not the right community.
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.

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.

Because of the two 7s, right? I saw the thumbnail and thought it was neat, but then looked closer and think the small 7 should go away.

Is there a Linux XP wallpaper?
Not wallpaper, but Chicago95 makes me very happy
Here
Make sure to pair it with a KDE XP theme
And you can also add the Activate Linux watermark with this app
Anyone know if it's true that with an older laptop it's better to wait a few months for bugs to be found before upgrading?
It's a mix, and not necessarily limited to older laptops.
You want to stay up to date with security updates as much as possible. Feature updates are not as important, especially if you want the least bugs.
On windows you can defer security and feature updates separately, I typically set 1 week for security and 1 year for feature updates (Assuming they haven't changed that option again). That's been enough for me to dodge the data-deleting updates.
For Linux, I don't think it's separated as a quick user option so cleanly. You can install the LTS (Long Term Support) version of your distro. The maintainers of that will do security/bug fixes as needed and slowly push feature updates when they are very well tested.
No. It's better to update as soon as possible and find those bugs and report them. With older hardware you increase the chances no one else will have your unique hardware to trigger the bug, so it's better for you to encounter it sooner when it's fresher in the dev's mind for a quicker fix.
Are you running a rolling release distro?
I have Nobara on my audio production PC and I typically wait a few days before pulling the trigger on any significant updates. A quick glance at your distro's discussion boards and a bit of patience is all you need if you're hoping to avoid issues.
