    So I’m assuming you’re the type who says it’s on the user to carefully review all package updates before running the update (rather than running updates automatically)? And therefore the user’s fault if something breaks in an update?

    Yeah … no. Ain’t nobody (who has a job and/or a life) got time for that. My computer isn’t a hobby, it’s a tool. And, as much as possible, I want my tool to ‘just work’. And I certainly don’t want to spend more time than necessary maintaining it. So I’ll stick with a distro where the work of vetting updates and making sure they don’t break anything has already been done by someone else – a distro where I can just run updates automatically in the background (if I choose) without any significant worry that it will interrupt my workflow in any way.

        Well you didn’t give me much else to go on, had to fill it in with assumptions.

        Since you seem to consider automating updates an absurd proposition, what else am I supposed to think?

          I asked a general question. You know, the one that only requires “yes” or “no” as an answer. When doing that, I am not expecting you to think anything about me

          Back to the topic at hand: absurd is not automatic updates, but your foolish thinking (I would have said “illogical”, but failing to follow logic and breaking its rules are differen things), now demomnstrated twice in a row. So, if that is how you want to manage your computer - well, on the second thought who am I to save you from trouble

            I’m not an LLM. I’m not here just to answer your questions.
