This is the first I'm hearing of timeshift. I will be looking into this.

I first discovered Timeshift through Garuda, which had it set up by default. It mitigates the issue of bleeding-edge updates breaking your system.(Although they use Snapper now, which is supposedly better with BTRFS.)

timeshift supports btrfs snapshots tho

When you install or update something that breaks something, like has happened to me many times, to the point that the system cannot boot, you can pick a snapshot from the grub menu from before those changes occurred, allowing you to recover your system to a working state without the use of a live boot usb.

It's also been useful when some program or other stops working due to some change in a dependency somewhere, like OBS sometimes does. Then you can just hop backwards in time to a point where it works and get to actually using your system, instead of spending hours tracking down exactly where an error is occurring right then and there. "fixing it later" becomes a valid way of dealing with problems with your system, when just pressing a button lets you make it temporarily go away.

Are you some automation to migrate your posts? Cause I have been thinking of doing it. But it's too much work.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 11 months ago (2 children)

To be fair, I thought about that however saw posts from other people that blocked from posting because of the automation. Also I think the automation process is pretty much botched thanks to API change. So I handpick my posts, mostly skipping forum posts, that leaves image-based posts which are not that many, at least for me.

Well, i guess there goes my shitpost history.

Maybe it can be still possible if you want data request from Reddit, since you'll get your post links. Unless they're NSFW, scrapping should work after that.

sudo !!

My most common command is probably yay -Syu

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago

By default, this is aliased to just yay

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

I never really understood why to use -Syu instead of just yay

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

You can just do yay

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

Bloat. yay without -Syu does the same.

Used to hate when windows update between my work.

But since trying Arch, i do pacman Syu almost everyday.

Its kinda addicting, and it give some statisfactions for myself, i dont know why

But now I'm past that stage, and just update it like every 2 weeks.

Going to Gentoo, i repeat the same process again. Seeing the console log is hipnotising and give a statisfaction for me when it complete successfully. I update like every 3 days

Now i update once a month hahaha

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

doas, FTW

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago (1 children)

I update every 2-3 weeks or so. Is this really a thing?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

Well, it's a meme with some exaggeration so not really. But daily perhaps? :)
