You could try EndeavourOS, it’s based off Arch, so 99% of the Arch wiki can be directly applied to your system, and the installation process is much more normal with a GUI and a selection of Desktop Environment to choose from.

The hardest part with Arch is getting the initial setup working imo, so you can put a few more hours trying to install it (if you’re ready to bear the frustration that might come with it) or pick a distro like EndeavourOS with a GUI installer to get a working system quicker.

Gitlab-runner exec and act are great tools, but this goes out of the window as soon as the cloud hosting service is a little less intelligent (looking at you, azure DevOps, who removed the hack that let pipeline run locally in 2019)

If Apple users could read, they would be mad!

Someday? Canada is already trying to ban the Flipper Zero, we’re living in your nightmare.

I bought Outer Wilds recently (my consumerism couldn’t resist the 40% sale on steam), friends recommended it and I know nothing about it, but only time will tell if I’ll play the game someday or if it’ll stay untouched for years…

I wasn’t a huge fan of manpages either until I got a kernel class at uni. The man pages for syscalls and library calls are super well made.

I mean, if a service is free… You’re the product, you’ve never been the customer 🙃

Hello world (or person in this case)

Just… Don’t use edge altogether? There are so many browsers with better privacy (librewolf, brave, ungoogled chromium, etc). Any reasons why you want to stick to edge so badly?

Welp I’m of those “windows” users then 😉

Good bot

I see what you did there, honestly debian major release names and older Linux kernel version names are 2 of my favorites easter eggs in open source 😂

Absolutely understandable, personally I prefer the AUR since I don’t ever need to download and compile the source code anymore, since everything I need got an AUR package.

I also had bad experiences with apt, mostly that their release are too slow/I get stuck on an old release (my raspberry pi’s python version is still 3.7, which caused problems since I was using a python 3.8 library). That’s probably on me for not knowing how to upgrade my release, but I switched to Arch before learning how to fix this

For the pacman flags, I simply use yay, the AUR wrapper instead, yay do a full system upgrade, and yay python will show me a list of packages that have similar names to install. Still not as clear as apt, but at least there’s no weird flag letters to remember for most use cases
