Interesting how similar our distro careers are. My switch was also after a long time (15 years). Wouldn't go back to Arch. Still think it's a good distro for what it's trying to achieve.
Hey, I never said this is what people want, just that it is in fact a transferrable skill. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone just trying to get their machine running, but if you're looking to gain some insight, is not the worst choice.
If you actually try to understand what's happening, I think it's one of the best ways to learn how a system is composed, at least if you install manually. What's a partition, file system, what does mounting do, chroots, you name it.
I don't use Arch anymore but still think it's a great distro to learn the basics while still having the luxury of new binary packages. Manual Arch install abstracts basically nothing away from you, for better or for worse.
Currently on NixOS, I'd say while its engineering is better overall, the things you learn there are much more distribution-specific or maybe concept-specific and often not applicable to other distributions.
I guess there are also probably ways to install e.g. Debian manually, I've never seen instructions for it though as there was always the focus on the installer, and frankly I'm not a big fan of apt and all. It always seemed to be much more convoluted than pacman plus it does a lot of stuff for you, whether you want it or not was my impression.
For years Dota players have argued that having to click the enemy hero to see their mana is peak game design. It was very rare to see anyone argue on favor of it. Better late than never I guess?
Is this from the one where they found Croesus' vault to make the amulet from his lucky coin?
Life and Times of Scrooge McDuck is also not only a happy story about him getting rich, but also about becoming lonely and somewhat bitter in the later stories.
Highly recommend reading them, Disney likes sweep them under the rug for whatever reason.
The treasure hunt series (where I think this picture is from) is a bit more light-hearted in nature, but still very good.
I know you're joking anyways, but I always cringe when I see that. There's no need to invoke su there. If you want a root shell, use sudo -s or sudo -i depending on what kind of shell you want.
There's a keepassxc-full package that comes with all the functionality. Anyhow, Debian does not have the concept of USE flags, these don't make sense in a binary-based distribution.
That nicer place is probably at home. Not that there's anything wrong with it. But I think all fast food chains raised prices? At least here in Europe it's not like McDonald's is somehow standing out as more expensive. Worse, yes. But that was always the case
