That's hawt.

Did you know, in the season 4 DS9 episode "The Visitor", they didn't just use make up to make Jake look older. They used a different actor.

They banned ... we do not know what they banned. It's too ambiguously worded. It's like living under a malevolent tyranny intent on keeping the populace stressed and uncertain about the shifting ambiguous rules with no idea when the police will come for them. It is not fun being on codeberg, until they stop this, by merely clarifying their new rule.

I've never seen something get so heavily downvoted.

Well done.

That was impressive.

Poisoned the well on more than both sides. Hah.

Heh. That was fun to try to read. Took a couple extra seconds.

Then I wondered how well an LLM would manage that... XD It's been going at it for minutes already.

Oh, it's done now...

Worked for 6min 27s

Debian user here. I want to switch to arch but dont want to troubleshoot my pc after each update. How do u folks deal with that?

I don't [switch]. Instead I [(having already thoroughly read through all the documentation several times)]

• go to https://bedrocklinux.org/
• click on Installation Instructions
• click on the first from here link
• scroll down select the correct line for my architecture, e.g. https://github.com/bedrocklinux/bedrocklinux-userland/releases/download/0.7.31/bedrock-linux-0.7.31-x86_64.sh and paste it to a terminal as target for wget, wget https://github.com/bedrocklinux/bedrocklinux-userland/releases/download/0.7.31/bedrock-linux-0.7.31-x86_64.sh
• make it executable chmod +x bedrock-linux-0.7.31-x86_64.sh
• run it ./bedrock-linux-0.7.31-x86_64.sh
• run it again remembering the need to add --hijack
• run it again remembering the need to run it as root. (... I know, I could just remember to do sudo and --hijack first time, but I like this silly ritual).
• and type in the "Not reversible!", knowing how non-trivial a change to my operating system is about to happen in an instant.
• reboot
• enjoy seeing the new init select screen after the grub screen (albeit with only one option yet)
• once back at a tty or once back in gui with a terminal emulator (... maybe after some more configuration tweaks, e.g. in /bedrock/etc/bedrock.conf), brl fetch arch
• et viola, done. can do sudo apt update ; sudo apt upgrade ; sudo pacman -Syu.

... And more likely I'd do brl fetch void ; brl fetch gentoo ; brl fetch -r ceres -n ceres devuan ; brl fetch artix. But ^ that's for if "I want to switch to arch but dont want to troubleshoot my pc after each update."

Could also do frequent brl copy arch arch-fallback-(date) or some such, so then if something goes wrong with an upgrade, you could just carry on unperturbed, or even disable the stratum that had something go wrong, or even delete it, and brl rename arch-fallback-20260806 arch, and carry on with your day, sure it'll resolve the upgrade properly next time tomorrow. ;)

But of course, this is a bit overkill, like starting a huge complex science and production logistics project just to crack a nut.

But it is my honest answer of how I deal with that. ;)

So feels like it.

Would be nice.

Can we pick this up again from 2005?

I wear a fedora, and I've used nearly any and all distros as my daily driver, except fedora.

It's so confusing.

Reminds of the ol' Churchill line... "Democracy is the worst form of government, except all the other types of government."

1st lesson:

Install Serenity OS.

2nd Lesson:

Figure out how to install XLibre (or Pheonix) on Serenity OS.

More true than many realise.
