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 members of the community for any reason.
  • 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, and wants to interject for a moment. You can stop now.

  • Please report posts and comments that break these rules!

    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

    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...

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