Maybe I'm just screaming into the void here, but does it seem like, as a person who is still relatively out of touch with linux, I don't necessarily have to update my Arch distribution whenever there are new updates available? I could theoretically just go on downloading new programs, uninstalling old ones, using everything as it sits until theoretically something breaks?

I don't necessarily have to update my Arch distribution whenever there are new updates available

Clearly, op agrees

And that is why I use Opensuse tumbleweed, no worries ever (zypper takes a snapshot before and after each upgrade, single command to roll back)

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Not to mention that a two or three thousand package update is rookie numbers for zypper.

KDE Plasma is one of the default options which you can install with Manjaro. Manjaro is the Linux distro, but KDE Plasma is the DE (desktop environment/GUI).

Side note: "I'mma" is a contraction of the whole phrase "I'm going to" or "I'm about to" so it's followed immediately by the verb indicating what you'll be doing:

"I'mma rawdog this sucker without backups."

Yes, I added sucker, because it's going to suck up all your time and data, sucka!

[–] [email protected] 8 points 1 week ago (1 children)

I’ve always thought of it as I am gonna

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago)

That's the lightly slangy version I would normally use, but as long as I was being pedantic I thought I'd better avoid any contractions in that part.

[–] [email protected] 31 points 1 week ago* (last edited 1 week ago) (1 children)

Op should have used "I'm finna rawdog this jawn no backup style"

For no reason other than mixed US slang from different regions sounds funnier to my ear

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 week ago

"no backup style" hits just right.

Becareful with glibc

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That's why I have an alias that does an unattended update and then powers off. I run this every night.

Looks like glibc got another update

It's my experience that Ubuntu and Fedora break if you don't upgrade often (and then suddenly do after a year), while arch doesn't... Which is interesting, since it's supposed to be the other way around...

I think it's because Fedora and Ubuntu add a lot of new things, while arch just updates it's packages.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Fedora upgrades are very reliable. I've never had one fail, 24 upgrades and counting.

Eh, I leave fedora for a while and come back and it's fine. Never had it break and I've been using it consistently since like 27.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (6 children)

More please. Getting ready to switch from Windows to Linux, been making sure I can install all the -arr I want and get games running, but in Mint.

Now I'm hitting the brakes hard. It's Arch if that means I don't have this headache. I'll need to start over learning, but it'll be worth it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 week ago

I've had two different arch based distros have issues when trying to update after long periods. I also had an Ubuntu server fail completely when doing a major version upgrade and had to restore it from backup. But then again I've also had no trouble updating an Ubuntu machine that was a couple years behind.

I'm on Fedora now for my desktop and it's been great so far, but I also do updates at least weekly. My advice would be if you expect to go months between updates your best choice is probably Debian.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 week ago

As long as you update frequently (I do it whenever I think about it, usually once every few days to a week) you shouldn't run into any issues

I've updated an Arch install after not being used for 2 years. I don't think there were any issues.

I've experienced far more issues upgrading to a new major release of an apt based distro though...

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago (1 children)

That apt based distro was Ubuntu, wasn't it?
I never successfully upgraded that from one release to the next.
