    "Cash or credit?" "Arch, btw."

    Sir, this is a wendy's.

    neofetch is deprecated. There are several alternatives like fastfetch.

    [–] [email protected] 29 points 4 months ago (1 children)

    For those who got used to type neofetch they probably just put an alias in for fastfetch

    [–] [email protected] 35 points 4 months ago (1 children)

    Wait, people type neofetch, as opposed to setting it to run with each time the shell is loaded?

    That shit is so annoying especially when I am just using a small window size.

    Yeah, and besides I need to see the latest ad for esm support.

    I wonder what distro they use

    [–] [email protected] 79 points 4 months ago

    Color suggests mint

    [–] [email protected] 48 points 4 months ago

    Papara Linux

    [–] [email protected] 34 points 4 months ago

    Does this get you a discount on Arch Premium?

    [–] [email protected] 7 points 4 months ago

    It’s how I got my office an amazing deal on Arch Enterprise

    This is what happens when you think manually partitioning disks and chrooting makes you leet.

    No fun allowed!

    Funny thing is, I did neither of those things the last time I had need to install; the script handled it for me.

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

    Not so glum, chum

    When I made a new linux install I chose Arch. I think for me the reasoning is thus. While I have a LOT of experience with unborking server linux installs, with desktop it's just a pain to deal with. I previously used Manjaro which, while very easy to install, does obfuscate a lot of what happens behind the scenes. When it goes wrong, personally I found it harder to fix.

    With Arch, beyond enough to give me a terminal and basic gnu tools, I've chosen what I install from then on. I think that means when things go wrong there's a much higher chance I'll know what it is and how to solve it.

    Time will tell if this plan works out or not though :P

    I've had the same path as you. Arch has been the simplest distro I've tried. And with archinstall it's a breeze.
    I've also found that Plasma 6 takes away most of the hassle with setting up a desktop - for my use case.
    Been using a PC since Win 3.1 and it's by far the most stable system I've ever had

    Σκεφτόμουν ακριβώς το ίδιο.

    Wondering if on the receipt it’ll say you’re running Java.

    [–] [email protected] 5 points 4 months ago

    This is really lame lol.

    [–] [email protected] 1 points 4 months ago

    I should have done this.
