Community rules (click to expand)
1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
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 of any kind will not be tolerated. This is an LGBTQ+-friendly community -- if that is a problem for you, you should leave.
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.
5. π¬π§ Language/ΡΠ·ΡΠΊ/Sprache
- This is primarily an English-speaking community. π¬π§π¦πΊπΊπΈ
- 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 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.
- 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. Β
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.

I tried to check if this was true, but some guy was all like "sir, you're not supposed to be back here" and "please step away from the cash register" π
I kinda miss living in St Louis
The real arch store would be pretty basic. Everything in plain cardboard boxes - basically just the self-service area in IKEA.
At IKEA they put the whole kit with instructions in one box.
At the Arch Store there would be a bookshelf full of instruction sets and bins of loose parts that you'd have to collect after reading the instructions.
Which would be pretty cool cuz you could build just about anything.
That's basically a Home Depot that also gives out construction plans for stuff...
There would be people wandering around saying things like 'hey I'm a total noob can I use this as a home server? β. And greybeards muttering insults under their breath.
Looks more like a rectangular store to me.

You found the arch nemesis
I don't even run arch but I'd be thrilled to stumble upon a Linux store this size. I now realize how much I want a stuffed penguin!
How do you know a Linux user has been to the Arch store? Don't worry, they'll tell you.
... people relate to this incident, right?
I just use rEFInd because I never donβt have problems with grub.
I do don't have problems with grub because
