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!


    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 fork-bomb your computer.

    "I want everything on my computer to look shiny and fake and rendered and if i cant have that with linux then microsoft will just get to keep raping my data. Because when im watching my YOUTUBERS i dont want to see people i want them to look like filtered upscaled animations."

    ^ See this is the other issue I have with Linux users. $20 says you hate 24/30Hz to HFR conversion as well. You probably hate 3D audio too. You're all the same.

    Call it "shiny" and "fake" all you want, but it looks a lot more real to me than the dull, stuttery, pixelated video we've all been fooled into believing is superior because Hollywood told generations of people that it was, simply because the technology wasn't there yet.

    Now it's here, and you people call it "shiny, fake, and rendered" because you're old and stubborn and unable to accept the fact that technology evolves. Hate to burst your bubble, but it doesn't actually look the way you're imagining it does. I wish I could show you in person. You'd become a believer, like everyone else I've shown my HTPC setup to.

    If the point of video is not to capture a slice of life, then what is the point of video? 1080p SDR @ 24 FPS does not look real to me, but 4K HDR @ 120+ is much closer, even when upscaled to that.
