It's like gushers, if they were invented in 1834

OK here it comes

Get ready for silly mode

I'm gonna do it

Time should stop marching on. It needs to wait for this man.

I missed when you posted this. Is it too late for a pine cone?

Yeah I wanna play your PnP RPG about yoshis

I feel like as the rate of spam increases it will regrettably become the only sustainable option.

I think I started using it around 2012 ish because I was tired of reinstalling Fedora every six months for a new release.

I would say it takes me between a half hour to an hour to install, assuming I have a second computer to look at the install guide, but I've done it a few times and could probably just do it without if I had to. Might take slightly longer if you've never done it, or it might be way faster, if you just used the arch install script they have now, I have not tried doing that.

As for day to day use, mostly you just sudo pacman install something and it usually just works. You choose what to install so you choose what to run. Then maintenance wise you just pacman update and that's usually all you need.

It used to be more unstable and things needed tinkering after an update but that's not really been a problem for me in a few years. Mostly it's just a Linux install that feels like any other, to me.

I can't help but read this to the tune of ice cream paint job

Oh, I knew about how page rank works but I didn't know you could disable it without just doing a blanket nofollow

People say "I use arch BTW" as a joke bragging about being a Linux expert but I have found it pretty easy to use. Idk your level of wanting to fuck around with installing it, it's not that hard to do if you have a little bit of experience and they even have the arch install script now (which I have not used, so I can't say how good it is) but once it is installed I have had very few problems with it ever breaking that were not directly my fault.

I run an encrypted root right now, it was pretty trivial to set up. The disk has two partitions, 500 megabytes for boot (which is way more than necessary) and the rest is a big LUKS volume atop which I have an LVM to split it into home and root volumes. You could also just run it directly off the Luke partition with no LVM, if you don't care about doing a separate home partition.

If I google Flabberghaster, below all the links to some band by that name, I do find my own jstpst profile.

We need to hire an SEO expert to get google to go away

I used to read coding horror all the time and he would blog about it a lot, though not most of the time.

Yeah it's open source but with service licensing, pretty common business model tbh. Not the worst way to do it if you're a business person.

I would even go as far as there's a canonical reason you can't do the imperious curse. Like you can trick people with magic, and you could marionette someone with magic like telekinesis (like just move them around yourself, if you wanted) bit it would be obvious what was happening, and you can't directly compel someone to do something.

Oh also, suggesting that we remove everything about mind control and love potions and shit. Get it outta there.
