I switched over to development/experimental package repos cause I was impatient for a new feature. I switched back to prod but I didn’t revert my packages. It worked fine for a couple weeks but they eventually became to outdated and I couldn’t post.

Luckily you can use a live stick to chroot in to fix. Felt pretty cool being able to do that, but yeah it was a stupid mistake lol. And I’m always gonna have a live USB on the side just in case I do something similarly bone headed.

I made a major mistake that bricked my system, all my fault, but I was able to plunge my arm into the smoldering pit it fell into and drag my install directly from the gates of hell. Still working great like half a year later and I now know not to do what I did before that broke it all.

EndeavourOS, Simply Arch with an installer, has KDE as an option for DE.

I use it, I love it. Arch is great. E-OS just cuts out the first few hours/days of set up.

You can just make a new folder, I put mine on /data

It’s cereal at the exact split second moment it is perfectly in between dry and soggy.

I think it’s more of a “he’s alive, and, well…” situation

The aur usually has what I need, only have had to manually build once… Before I found the aur package. Endeavoros is a good easy way to get into arch if you are worried about the manual configuration.

I am sure there are instances I have forgotten, there is definitely a certain amount of bigotry, it’s not hard to find classism, sexism, and ableism as usual for the internet and I am sure I have come across racism too but I don’t remember any specifics.

Yeah, I just finished my upgrade this morning and got crashing, easy downgrade but hopefully wayland and nvidia can play nice consistently soon lol

wuh oh, I haven’t updated in a while, only a couple times since the explicit sync fix and I haven’t had any issues. I was just planning on doing that today though…

The new nvidia driver has explicit sync, wayland perfect for me since I updated it a week or so ago.

My moment was using the experimental repos to get an early view into wayland, after seeing it wasn’t quite ready for my system I just switched back. Mistakes made, and slowly over the next few weeks as I updated, the experimental packages never got superseded and updated, until my system crashed and would not pass boot.

Luckily since it is not windows I just used a live usb stick to mount the disk and manually reinstall all the broken system packages. Scary but made me feel pretty confident I could recover the system myself in the future. Also learned a pretty important lesson. Don’t do that, and look at the upgrade log if you do lol, cause the whole time, as I upgraded there was red text showing me all the system packages that were not getting updated.

Not to mention, the vast majority of Americans can’t even dream of having enough money to afford the move to begin with. The American dream is reasonable rent and affordable debt repayments now.

Also at least let me compile it myself if not in a repo 😩

you must be one of them tankies /s

forget about gaming, start working out, there’s this really great guru I recommend called fitgirl who will really help you repack that six pack.

that’s nyarch or uwubuntu

well it sorta just makes sense, the gui presents it as a folder, you can move things around in it like a folder, conceptually it presents them in a way to make you think they are physical things stored in a physical folder/box. cli it really just feels like you are using a string of characters indicating the desired file, it feels more like a directory that way, even if it always really is that way, just showcased differently in the gui.

brain doing brainy things, strings/lines vs pictures/labels
