Is this a render? If so, it looks damn good! (And hopefully rendered on Arch)
Real picture taken on a Sony A7S, thx :D
Ah I see, really cool nonetheless, it’s a great composition!
Looks real tbh
Would have taken more effort to render than to just take the picture (if op already had a macro lens and an arch sticker)
Of course, but an Arch user would definitely fit the more effortful path kind, though taking a great picture might actually be harder between the fiddling with parameters and the set design
This is the way.
Blood sacrifices used used to be needed; but now that the congregation is large, candles and incense are preferred.

Wait, what? Are you trying to say I don’t have to sacrifice a goat every time I start the Linux Mint update manager?
I’m not familiar with Arch’s updating scheme, but I’d bet that it’s pretty similar to Red Hat’s and Debian’s. If you don’t complete an update, boot it up — even if it’s in a semi-broken state — and just start the update again. Even if the thing dies right in the middle of updating something boot-critical, so that it can’t boot, you can probably just use liveboot media, mount the drives in question, start a chrooted-to-your-regular-root-partition root shell, and restart the update.
Doing that and installing or reinstalling packages is a pretty potent tool to fix a system. It’s not absolutely impossible that you can manage to hork a system up badly enough to render it still unusable in that situation — I once wiped ld.so from a system, for example, and had to grab another copy and manually put it in place to get stuff dynamically-linked stuff like the package manager working again. But that’ll deal with the great majority of problems you could create.
I’ve done this countless times. My case was weird since I had a monitor that managed to regularly destroy my system but the gist is the same.
Got to a point where I put a text file on my live stick to copy-paste the commands to untangle the clusterfuck. Could probably format it to a bash script but I’m lazy ¯\(ツ)/¯
That’s why I like OpenSUSE. If anything went wrong and system couldn’t boot properly you just choose an older snapshot.
Isn’t that because of BTRFS? I also use Snapshots on my Arch system
Basically, yes. OpenSuse is nice because it comes with everything already set up, including bootable snapshots through the bootloader.
Yes, BTRFS combined with auto snapshots whenever you make system changes. So if you install a package, remove a package, or adjust anything like network settings or services, etc. you then have a snapshot to rollback to. Also, auto cleanup based on time or number of snapshots.
So out-of-the-box even as a new Linux user if you make a mess you just reboot to an earlier time, (which is read-only at first) if all is good and functions as you like you do a
sudo snapper rollback
And your current snapshot you are in becomes the bootable default.
I agree, I do the same in NixOS with Generations
Yeah, also an awesome distro. My wife’s laptop is running nixOS
Linux god’s
Linux god’s what?
kernels
Boom, roasted
if i had any money i would donate it instead of just lighting a candle
Tbh arch is very resilient and easy to fix
