Something I hate about some #Linux distros/system configs is when a PCI device is added or removed, say a display card, the network interfaces may get a new name, breaking the existing network configuration. This is a doubly infuriating circumstance when dealing with a headless server. Looking at you #proxmox, yes you specifically today. So great removing an unused GPU from one server to be repurposed and having that node refuse to rejoin the network. So great having to then find a VGA monitor for the onboard video (adding back the GPU would not have helped) to update the network configuration for the names enp6... and enp3... becoming enp5... and enp2... I'm sure I could spend some time, now that things are back up, to research and find the magic sauce that renames the network interfaces in #Debian and try to disable it. Except I've other fires to deal with just now. Admittedly some I started myself, but most by others. So this will happen again, much later, once I've forgotten "This one weird trick"

For knowledge and awareness about what using Linux is really like and pointing at its cultish toxic community. We also cover FOSS /FLOSS failures, and issues with GPL since it relates to Linux. Moderation is heavy handed to appeal to our target users.

Rules:

  1. FOSS (especially GPL) advocates and Linux (specifically GNU/Linux) evangelists aren’t welcome (GNU Hurd will count as Linux). -We ask that you block us and we will perma-ban for violations of this rule.
  2. Try to stay on topic (that is LINUXSUCKS!). No bashing other OSs or each other. We aim for a cohesive non-toxic community with the interest of cautioning people / would be victims from Linux. At our discretion, we will remove what we consider pollution.
  3. Moderators run the sub, not the users. It’s not democratic, and we don’t care how you think it should be run. -Feel free to make and run your own community.
  4. “Not your Billboard” -Over-represented companies will have positive posts removed and appropriate bans may be issued. -Those companies included so far will be Valve/Steam/Proton, Google, and Brave (browser).
