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!

    I have a Linux Mint running on a intel atom CPU with 256mb ram and no graphics card and it kinda works.

    macOS is a UNIX OS and is far better than Windows on resource management.

    [–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 day ago

    Sure, but you can't run it on anything but Apple hardware

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 14 points 2 days ago (1 children)

    The problem is that Apple doesn't seem to care. They willy nilly change things and restrict basic functions with zero regard for those who want to support or develop for there platforms.

    What Apple does with iOS and macOS developers is straight up extortion.

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

    The same thing with the desktop. They make major changes without telling a sole. Then the loyal Apple fans blame the developers.

    You need to show a better computer for windows

    [–] Honytawk@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

    Why?

    You can run Windows 11 on 200MB of RAM, a 8GB drive, and a CPU of last decade. Check out Tiny11

    I have Linux (OpenWRT) running on a router with 64MB RAM and 16MB of flash storage. And it works flawlessy. Also have Linux on a second WiFi router, my TV (LG WebOS), one phone, a laptop and a computer. (And I forgot about the Raspberry Pi and the VPS.)

    Ah, I see Linux supports breadboards now!

    [–] possiblylinux127@lemmy.zip 2 points 1 day ago

    I does if you have a supported architecture with a MMU

    [–] BonerMan@ani.social 13 points 2 days ago

    Nah sadly thats a potato custom. The generic breadboard isn't supported yet due to problems with the closed source of the chipset.
