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.
    • 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.
    • 6. (NEW!) Regarding public figuresWe 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.
    •  

    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.

    honest question, because i use windows and i shut down every day. is 20 seconds really "too long" for a full boot up?

    [–] Lv_InSaNe_vL@lemmy.world 4 points 1 week ago

    I think a lot of people are still stuck in the HDD days where windows could take 15-20 mins for a cold boot.

    But I only sleep windows because I like to get game updates while I sleep.

    boot hardly takes any time at all. it's all the programs on the computer that take forever to start.

    [–] SolidShake@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    Ctrl shift esc. Turn off start on boot up programs that you don't want to start.

    [–] tyler@programming.dev 1 points 1 week ago (1 children)

    … that just means your computer is useless when you start it up. And anyway I’m talking about things like your browser with previous tabs or your IDE.

    [–] SolidShake@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

    I sit do that either lmao. My browser loads just the home page after closing

    no, i was joking about the windows part there

    i'd say too long is 1 minute or more

    [–] purplemonkeymad@programming.dev 0 points 1 week ago

    Look, I used to work with computers that would take 5 minutes to turn on. I'm done waiting for computers to boot, I want it to take the least time it can. If hibernation takes just 1 second off, I'm gonna use it.
