Do you exclusively use cp/mv instead of a gui/tui file manager?

Agent-shell…

You’re welcome!

Did you also know that arch is used for the popular gaming platform - the steamdeck?

On the other hand nixos is used in the corporate environment, and is too complex for children to set up.

Arch yes, nix no. It’s about the age of the user base, not the age of the distro. Arch is popular with gamer children, and completely unsuited for any professional use, while nixos is the complete opposite.

And you wouldn’t guess it, but both of those are older than ubuntu and fedora.

I used vanilla arch and most popular derivative

That very much includes garuda… It uses the same repos, it’s going to have the same issues. I’m pretty sure the all in one ran it for the longest time.

Snapshots and rollbacks by default are veru much appreciated though.

I don’t know what distro y’all are on,

I used vanilla arch and most popular derivatives, on multiple devices, for something like 5 years. Also, I avoided using AUR whenever possible.

I haven’t had a major issue that wasn’t fixed by an update and reboot.

Meanwhile I’d update and fail to boot. True, for most scenarios I could just roll back and wait a week before updating, but I had to live boot and arch-chroot plenty of times.

The most annoying was some work backup all in one. I’d update it at most like once a month, it would fail to boot 1/3 times, and i’d rollback, wait a few weeks, and then update again with no issues.

I gave up on arch after working abroad and having to weigh which install command is more likely to fuck up my system after being too afraid to do an update for like a month.

It comes with frequent failures to boot, and every update is a russian roulette that might just force you to spend the next few hours figuring out what the fuck broke down this time.

I wouldn’t wear anything that reminds people of microsoft

Afaik it’s all about legal (financial) responsibility, and that’s why most corps were initially lobbying for the status quo. I doubt that’s going to fly after all of this, and it’s the first step towards having a unique, government ID backed, fingerprint for every online interaction.

Check that again, last year meta literally broke the record for the amount spent on legal bribery in a year.

California just has more “tech literate” politicians corporate lobbyists.

Not correct at all.

Even in the USA there are 3 different templates for the bill, and they handle age verification requirements at different levels

• os
• app store
• app

Different states are adopting different templates, and alphabet lobbyists are spending ludicrous amounts of money to make sure they’re not the ones responsible for billions in fines.

And when you say consulting, you mean that they’ve been legally bribed with a few mils.

Most of the political hacks writing these bills have zero understanding of computers and do not even consider Linux in the equation.

Meta literally broke the record for the most legal bribery in a year over shifting the liability from platform to app store (as they’re facing tens of billions in fines). Apple and Google have been pumping tens of millions to counter it.

The political hacks are just reading what the corpos wrote for them…
