"Have you heard about our Lord and Saviour Arch BTW"

[–] vinnymac 6 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Our maintainer,
who art in the AUR,
blessed be thy PKGBUILD.

Thy updates roll,
thy configs persist,
on / as it is in ~/.config.

Give us this day our daily pacman -Syu,
and forgive us our broken mirrors,
as we forgive those who fail to read the wiki.

Lead us not into dependency hell,
but deliver us from bloat.

For thine is the minimal base,
the freedom of customization, and the inevitability of btw, I use Arch,
forever and ever.

Uptime is so over-rated.

I was heavy gaming back in the days of WindowsME. It ran smooth for over 6 months 24/7 without fail. How? - It was mostly software firewalls (but other certain software). Why only 6 months? -Shutdown to install a new GPU.

Same thing happens in Linux, VLC would hard crash it, Bombermaaan, etc.

I fixed many WinME computers by uninstalling their software firewalls. -Black Ice Defender was a common culprit.

The only time I ever mention an OS is to bitch about it.

Windows 11 start menu sucks. But no, I'm not switching to Linux.

Remember OS/2 Warp? That was awesome. I'd gladly move to a universe where IBM won the OS Wars.

Some of us got over the hurdle of it changing and prefer the new. I like being able to press super, start typing a setting I'm looking for and go right to that setting.
