honestly, I’ve had arch on all my machines for 5y now. the install was simple, as long as you followed instructions to the letter.

the rolling release is beautiful. i never ever have to go through the install again

please remove the French language pack

please rm -fr /*

once there was a bug with dependencies of transcode and some other package (mplayer I think). it would ask to downgrade one and upgrade the other. then several hours of compiling later it would agree to upgrade both. then several more hours of compiling later it would again want to downgrade one again

I think there was a groove worn in my hard drive from this

so even after 24h compiling ur not done! u need to dispatch-config through so many config files…

I used Gentoo for 3y. in hindsight I wasted so many CPU cycles just because I thought --march=native would make things faster.

nope.

you know what made things faster? switching to arch 😂

lol this is hilarious.

20y ago I attended a talk by him which I still remember. I completely stopped using windows after that.

he was on the GNU/Linux name rant back then as well. he also had a huge floppy disk he put on as a halo and paraded around as saint iGNUcious.

interesting talk and entertaining

systemd-network is great on servers. I use it on every machine that isn’t on wifi
