Lol this is so true.

You can just type “shutdown now” and it does.

Arch. Would love to find something better but I can’t.

People get confused if their icons change color, man.

If the icon is not in the same place as before, god help them.

Its like the famous saying…

• How do you know someone runs arch?

• Because they will tell you about it.

Truth hurts.

Arch is boring. It just works, has all the latest software, runs all the games, has the latest kernel…

My latest install is from 2019 I think…its exactly as fast as when I installed it, despite new versions of massive desktop environments like plasma and cosmic in this time, and hundred of new kernels and drivers.

Where is the excitement… Arch is like a rock in the sea. It doesnt change, it just is perfect the way it is.

:)

You know, this “soon collapse is coming” has been said since 2019.

In my opinion, the fear of collapse is exactly what they want you to feel, so you don’t make any money from the dystopian build-out.

But they are making money on it. Oh yes. Stocks go up because huge investment bankers are buying all the stocks they are telling you to be afraid of in the news.

You can sit and have no stocks and lose no money if you want, but you are betting on a crash that you are being told will happen “soon”… :) We will see. Chances are, you miss making a lot of money on this and afterwards, you will feel a bit sad you missed it.

Anyone 30 or younger has their entire brain filled with social media programming and fear. :)

The entire idea is to make you scared of saving, you dummy. I mean that in a funny way. You should never make decisions based on what social media is telling you. Social media is programming, gossip, big headlines… Building on news. Who owns the news? Billionaries. Who owns the platforms? Billionaries.

Retired and living from investments. I’m 51 so was working in tech for a long time.

Start investing if you aren’t.

Started hating working in tech a year ago and got out.

All of this when you get the super excellent Kagi for 10 dollars, from an actual search company that values privacy.

Its exactly what everyone wants but no, can’t pay 10 dollars I guess. :)

I doubt it’s real. Most of the screenshots here are just Ai generated for people to react to. It’s entertainment.

This is typical tech timeline too. Everything is so rushed that shit literally happen in minutes.

Yes and architects tends to see beauty in buildings, gardeners in gardens, chefs in cooking.

No I didn’t mean it that way. Ok, I’ll put it in other words. Certain people have an interest in specific things. I am interested in how Linux works, but I dont care how my car works, or how politics works. It’s just a personal instinct what we like.

And I meant that for people with my interest, arch is great. Its absolutely wrong for more than 99% of humans. But some likes it.

It’s so much fun. Arch wiki is amazing.

No I agree, unless they are interested in learning.

Yes it’s worth it many times over. I learned Linux on arch like 15 years ago. :) Its been paying off enormously during my career and private hobby life. Last windows I ran at home was windows 7.

I’ve gotten this comment 10 times over the last year or so. :)
