        Speedcubing or racing games? That’s where I know that term from

      Thanks, i might start using that so i can continue work while it’s installing. Even if I’m going to reboot later, i won’t have to wait for it to install before using the system.

      While that works, it sometimes might break things: https://fedoramagazine.org/offline-updates-and-fedora-35/

        Crashes are just the system telling me to restart. As god intended.

          Except if you ran the update from within a graphical session and your session crashed, as this will kill DNF, making the update incomplete and potentially corrupting files. I recommend you either:

          • use the graphical updaters
          • run dnf from a TTY
          • or use some of the atomic spins, having atomic updates on btrfs subvolumes

            Switched to nix in the meantime.

      You need to “sudo dnf clean all” first to make sure you get the freshest index!

        You can do that, but it is not necessary.

          It’s not necessary but you’ll get updates quicker. And I’m a chronic updater, even pick and choose stuff from updates-testing.

            I recommend “dnf automatic” to fetch the latest package index in background

  • 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.
5. 🇬🇧 Language/язык/Sprache

  • Comments written in other languages are allowed.
  • The substance of a post should be comprehensible for people who only speak English.

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.

  • Discussions that get too heated will be locked and offending comments removed.

 

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.
