Try gparted on a liveUSB, you don't wanna modify the partitions you're actively using because it can(read: will) result in data loss.

If you're willing to spend a little bit of time on it and actually know what's happening behind the scenes, read the man-pages for fdisk and do it manually from a TTY, but for cereal, use a liveUSB and ffs do NOT mount the filesystems first

Icecat takes too long to compile

Been boycotting Starbucks for years, ever since they showed their workers how little they care by giving them a meditation app instead of reasonable work expectations.

Still can't believe I wasted 4 years of my life working for that shithouse

It's funny, but why?

Quite a few of the unhoused folks in my area must be bourgeois by that logic

So, the big thing with instability is that with Linux "Unstable" refers to "Constantly receiving updates" rather than "Breaks all the time"

In my experience, if arch breaks, 99% of the time YOU the user did it.

If you want a kinkless experience with it, keep it simple.

Arch ships with systemd, as such, it also ships with systemd-boot. Use what's built, don't add additional bootloaders unless you need the functionality they offer.

Gnome, Matlab, and VScode have wiki pages for installation and configuration, and Firefox is in the repos and is one line in the terminal to install (#pacman -S firefox)

For a first install, I'd recommend following the wiki to install instead of using archinstall to familiarize yourself with how to use and read the wiki.

I wash with plain water and a little bit of citric acid or vinegar.

Keep (unused) silica gel kitty litter in a mesh bag in your fridge to lower the relative humidity, I lived in a swamp for a while too :/

Edit: dry your silica gel in the oven every couple weeks, once it looks like it's losing its transparency.

Wash your veggies when you buy them, dry them thoroughly, and store them in a sanitary environment; they'll last much longer this way.

I regularly keep my organic veggies for weeks at a time before cooking them with no molds or rotting.

It also helps to buy from a growers market where things haven't been in cold storage for months before getting to the store.

I feel weird going to highschool football games, but I have way more fun watching those than professional games. Commercial breaks have taken games that should only last a couple hours at most and stretched them into all day affairs
