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, no politics, no trolling or ragebaiting.
  • 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.
  • Β 

    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.

    Adobe, OK. SolidWorks? Nah. NX is a higher-end CAD solution (costs more though) and runs on RHEL or SUSE

    Yay! SolidWorks was literally the last thing keeping me on Windows

    Edit: Um, why does the Siemens website say it only supports the license server since 2020?

    Not sure, they changed license server types recently for newest NX. But new server should support backwards. They have NX12 linux GUI version supported , latest NX release only runs Linux batch NX---for who know why

    I miss NX. My company uses SolidWorks, and it's...okay, I guess? But I'm aggravated on a weekly basis because it doesn't do something that NX could. But cost is the issue. I think you can get like 5 SW licenses for the cost of a single NX one.

    Siemens has a 3 to 1 model license option now. Up to 3 users of Solid Edge, but if they check theirs all in, you can pull 1 NX license. A nice compromise for when you need more power

    Adobe works pretty good on another non-Windows OS…
