Community rules (click to expand)
1. Follow the site-wide rules
- Instance-wide TOS: https://legal.lemmy.world/tos/
- Lemmy code of conduct: https://join-lemmy.org/docs/code_of_conduct.html
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!

Is the 9 pertaining to permissions like chmod uses them? I'll have to look it up sometime. Been awhile since I've ever actually needed to force quit something in a Linux os
No, it's just the number of a specific signal.

Thanks for that, I'll have a ganter. Need to spin up a new VM soon and figure out a new distro to play with. Been slacking on exploring new things. Mostly only played with Yellow dog (small enough to dual boot on a PS3 with 512mb of ram back in the day), Ubuntu, Debian for other things. Likely will look for something that will work well for a media server.
Have fun exploring! I just have a simple Raspberry Pi at home with a few services, after working with this stuff all the time I rarely feel like tinkering at home :D
