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.
  • These rules are somewhat loosened when the subject is a public figure. Still, do not attack their person or incite harrassment.
  • 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. Even if you watch it on a Linux machine.
  • 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.
  • Β

    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.

    Reminded me how Windows would set the hardware clock to different timezone that Linux uses, can't remember which.

    It would make my blood boil, that's when I decided to never boot it again. 100% Linux everywhere, I get it on routers when I can.

    Windows sets the hardware clock to local time, Linux sets it to UTC. It's possible to tell one to respect the others preference

    I will never expect Windows to respect any preference. Updates burnt me too many times.

    Linux for life.

    Linux for life.

    Then you're clearly not dual booting and this advice wasn't for you

    [–] msage@programming.dev 0 points 10 months ago

    Not anymore I'm not, you are correct.

    Also wrote that earlier.

    So that's why windows always has the wrong time after I've been in my Linux install...

    [–] the_crotch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 10 months ago

    It should change it back eventually if you didn't disable setting the clock from Microsofts ntp servers
