Yes, which is why I said that was the only part that I could think of that was wrong with it. If you removed “AUR” from the comment, it would be completely fine and nobody would be bricking anything.
Generally, I don’t get too much from the AUR, and when I do, I make sure it’s got a whole lot of '+'s
One difference is that retail outlets can profit from Apple products. Linux isn’t a company that makes hardware.
Use EndeavourOS
Been on endeavourOS for a little over a year now, and consider myself a quick study… But how would this brick your system?
I’m guessing the issue would come from getting a random custom kernel off AUR?
Because the rest of it seems fine to me, no? Is there an issue with getting the “-git” version of a program from yay/pacman over the regular or “-bin” versions? I usually tend to go for the bin when it’s there, but I don’t think the git versions have ever caused me trouble.
I usually just use “yay” to update my system, but I have done “pacman -Syyu” (or -Syu) and it seemed to work just fine.
What is there to hate? I don’t really understand. It does what it says on the package, and seems to do it pretty well. At least with respect to making small and quick edits to config files in the command line.
No way dude, it’s the other one that says, “we love the color blind.” Really.
Man… I might be showing my age, but checking out some of the links in these replies gave me nostalgia for the website FontsnThings.com (or was it “FontsandThings”?). I used to love browsing that shit as a kid and downloading all the coolest looking fonts lol
Anyone else?
the overall fear of innovation
eh?
I don’t consider myself a Marxist, but… what?
WINE Is Not an Emulator
The supply chain presumably cost something in the first pic too. The prices of those things should have also gone up according to inflation. So wouldn’t they also be included in the “inflation adjusted” figure? It’s not like they were calculating what it cost without needing a supply chain.
In fact, I would think that if anything, the overall price of supply chains would have decreased as technology got better (better fuel, better gas mileage, better routes, better forms of transportation, better computer models to predict outcomes, etc).
Taco Bell is dope.
I don’t consider it Mexican food, and don’t seek it out when I’m in the mood for Mexican food. Taco Bell is its own thing, and it’s good.
And I do, generally. But like I said, I did not read it carefully because I had no reason to.
So if they addressed what I said, I didn’t read that part. 🤷🏻
I don’t dual boot so I had no reason to read the article carefully.
So they claimed it wasn’t supposed to affect dual boots, yet it was specifically to patch a vulnerability in GRUB, something a Windows-only user has no reason of ever using (that I’m aware of)?
So how could this have affected anyone but people who dual boot? Sketchy.
Even when Proton doesn’t work, it still somehow works.
Magic.
Why would anyone want to game in a VM?
This was your local EPA? Do you mean at the state level (often referred to as “DEP”)? Or is this the federal EPA?
Because that seems like quite the expense in 2000, and I can’t imagine my state’s DEP ever shelling out that kind of cash for it. Even nowadays.
Sounds cool though.
As someone who has experienced this phenomenon first hand: being white helps.
Yeah, but they’ll be lacking the very important skill of “googling the error message”. You will become their de facto IT person.
