i installed arch on my laptop almost 10 years ago

I have to fix something maybe once a year and I only update once a week, if i remember

reboot maybe one time in a month

the myth that you need to fix Linux constantly needs to die

I don't know what you're talking about because when I tried Linux it was a nightmare. The only thing that worked properly ironically was the printer. It's straight up would not play sound, if I plugged in headphones it would play sound but it would not play sound through the speakers. There were lots of people telling me I needed to install new sound drivers, or run arbitrary commands. None of them fixed it.

It ended up being a problem with the USB driver. That's ridiculous, I shouldn't have to mess around with a driver for an internal component.

Sounds like my experience from a while ago.

Yeah, wondering myself if this guys experience was also from a long time ago or maybe just an obscure device or something.
