The other guy sucks

Wait, you open attachments from spam?

Who knew they did more than release an annual puzzle?

reboot -f

Because real men login as root and don’t care about such silly things like an init system or file system syncing!

To quote the man page:

-f Does not invoke shutdown(8) and instead performs the actual action you would expect from the name.

A horse with no name (in my ass)

Same here, I used to have this image in my head of a eccentric entrepreneur pushing technology to the max with ‘fuck you money’.

Sure he said some crazy shit sometimes, but it kind of felt like he didn’t have much of a filter.

Around the time of the Thai cave thing this started to change, but I still gave him the benefit of the doubt until that point.

After that, things just went down hill…

Same here, similar age.

When i got diagnosed with ADHD a few years ago, ny psychologist mentioned that I’m probably on the spectrum as well, but that getting an official diagnosis wouldn’t really help anything and she wasn’t sure I would even get one.

But having the realisation really opened my eyes though, I now understand better why certain situations always made me irritable and made me have much more peace with my own limitations.

I always knew I was a bit ‘off’, and knowing I’m on the spectrum kind of felt like the last pieces of the puzzle fell in place.

I saw the scene on Reddit many years ago and thought it was hilarious, so it stuck.

In Manjaro you just run this command, there’s a GU package manager as well, but I’ve never used it. Pamac takes care of downloading / building any required dependencies and the AUR repo includes any required patches for the application run well on Arch / Manjaro.

pamac build

I haven’t used Arch in years, but I believe it was something similar.

The whole system is pretty similar to, (but more refined than) FreeBSDs Ports tree.

I went from Windows XP -> FreeBSD -> Debian -> several Ubuntu flavors -> MacOS -> Manjaro on my desktop. I ended up switching to MacOs after countless upgrade and graphics card issues in the early 2010s but switched back to Linux again after getting tired of Apples more and more restrictive environment.

For servers I’ve switched around between FreeBSD, Debian and Ubuntu at home and various Redhat based distros at work.

Right now I use Ubuntu because it just works for my Kubernetes home cluster and Redhat at work because its well supported for commercial software.

For me, AURs main advantage is the huge library of software available. No mess resolving dependencies like when manually building from source and no issues with 3rd party repos breaking each others dependencies like in PPA

My ass hits the asphalt at 120km/h, not entirely sure I will still be capable of pooping from there after that.

Good news, it applies to all battery operated devices, not just phones
