    I use Linux because it is free and good enough to do most stuff I want to do on a computer.

    I use windows at work because I get paid - so from my perspective it is cheaper than free. It makes it frustrating to do the stuff I’m supposed to do but my employers are fucking idiots so it doesn’t really matter.




  • Surely that can be OPs choice.

    If a user has a large number of programmes they might not want to hand hold updates of all of them each time.

    If they choose only the handful they want from arch repo or aur then they might have a quicker update and find it easier to stay awake.

    I’d think it should be up to them if they want to trade off bloat vs the burden of an update.

    I find, especially for AUR stuff the update can become vexatious.

    The “btw” is insincere if they didn’t do it manually, they should be prohibited from using it.

    Arch’s tag to neatly summarise the aloof snobbery must be preserved. If archintall script users can say it; how long until “I use manjaro btw”, or “i use endeavouros btw”. At which point it just has no value - I don’t believe these people are genuinely considering themselves superior to other users - as reflected in several other comments here.

    Archinstall script should be modified to install a keylogger that will bork the system if ever “arch btw” is detected.


  • I’m not sure how new or innovative all these tricks are, I heard something equivalent to that ‘unicorn’ thing about Victorian era railway companies in London. But those spending numbers in 1 year are horrific, they could each build like hundreds of km of high speed rail and probably a handful of schools and hospitals (not that i’d want that lot involved in any of those things).

    “. . .the position is serious when enterprise becomes the bubble on a whirlpool of speculation.”





  • I’ve experienced random stuff like that in past - not exactly the same though and not that chip.

    I’d suspect power issue, either cpu and/or gpu causing a spike that results in some voltage rail to go unstable. More likely GPU, unless your applications are really thrashing all cpu cores.

    How old PSU? how much headroom? how good brand of PSU? Might also be a motherboard power management issue.

    Also - it might not hurt just to unplug and reseat every power cable.
