"To be" being highly irregular il a common feature of a lot of Indo-European languages. But there's worse. In Spanish, "ser" and "estar" both mean "to be", but have wildly different meanings and cannot be substituted for one another.
FWIW I ran my gaming rig on Manjaro for a couple of years.
It doesn't need constant maintenance, and it doesn't break. The whole point of it is to be a stable variation of Arch.
It does need regular maintenance, as highlighted in every single stable update announcement. It doesn't break if you follow these maintenance steps when relevant to your install. It is absolutely not stable (as in Debian Stable or RHEL or SLES stable) as things are moving quickly. It might be "stable" as in "crash-free", but it is not "stable" stable. And as I said, after running it for 2 years, I'm not convinced it's that crash-free either. I remember an era (I think 5.9-ish kernel series) that crashed all the time.
It doesn't have a highly irregular update schedule, it's quite regular — every two weeks
Okay, almost-semi-regular then.
AUR doesn't "expect" anything, it's a dumping ground where anybody can put anything.
True, AUR is not sentient. AUR creators, on the other hand, are overwhelmingly Arch users who builds their scripts targeting an up-to-date Arch system.
Well, it's simple.
Solomon Epstein discovered a way to make fusion drives orders of magnitude more efficient. Unfortunately, he grossly underestimated how much more powerful his new drive would be, and died testing it while sustaining more than 11G for 37h, yeeting his own corpse in deep interstellar space.
Fortunately, his files were recovered by his widow, who sold them to the secessionist Martian Colony government, who in turn sold them to the UN in exchange for independence. Earth and Mars developed the engine design so ships could move much farther and quicker than had been possible before, enabling a new gold rush in the outer Solar system and especially the Belt.
And that's why the Epstein Files were so important.
Box Jades are lighter than Navies, provide insane amounts of tactility (and noise) and feel awesome.
True. Although this post is less a comparison of the two than a renewed appreciation of what makes Gnome fantastic, especially the QOL parts taken for granted for so long ;)
Oh nice, I like it. Although a few minutes with it and it's starting to look suspiciously like my Gnome setup :D
Also, the tray doesn't seem to work on my machine, probably some missing dependency.
Unless you have the tooling and knowledge to manufacture precision parts like swiches and stabilizers, and integrated electronics like a microcontroller, it would be very hard to 100% DIY a keyboard.
The most DIY I've ever did was to design, 3D print, handwire, build and program a split ergo keyboard based around a Teensy 2.0 microcontroller and Kailh Box Jade switches.
An intermediate but still very interesting route would be picking matching parts from vendors like kbdfans or kprepublic, with your choice of enclosure, PCB, switches and stabs, lots of soldering and testing, and some QMK fun to round it off.
I wasn't aware of the racism connotations nor the connections to car culture, as English is not my first language. I thought it was some unixporn inside joke and never questioned that term.
I'm sorry for using that term and have edited my message.
3D Touch is still working on my XS Max.
I'm gonna sorely miss it when I upgrade.
Where I live, Apple Maps and Google maps are basically at feature parity for what I care about. Directions, traffic, ETA, public transportation. So I'm using Apple Maps because fuck Google.
Sometimes I feel compelled to use Waze when there is heavy traffic and/or when I know there would be speed traps on the way, but it's propensity to suggest absolutely atrocious directions just to "save" 2 mins (and I always end up losing much more than that) is the worst.
