I’d be so thrilled if I was at a wedding that did that. Cool idea.

Because I’m pretty active in the Nix community and have never seen a single anti-flakes comment anywhere. Plenty of people advocating for flakes, and those who don’t use or understand flakes. But never anyone who actively dislikes them.

Oh, that’s easy – that’s utter bullshit. Article is generous, this is a blog post.

Use a decent distro

That’s the point – your claim about deb-based distros is just anecdotal.

The example here is Nvidia updates borking the system. I’ve have that happen to me numerous times on Arch-based systems.

I’ve run deb-based distros on some boxes over years of updates with no issues. On the other hand I’ve had updates cause breakages on Arch-based systems pretty much every time I’ve run them.

Which is to say anecdotes are useless, updates can break systems, and being able to immediately roll back to a working system and deal with updating later is a simple, nice thing to have with no downsides.

So you agree, Arch can also break by updating.

They really should be moved out of that category soon. They’ve been so fully embraced and used by the community that they’re effectively standard now.

Except that time a year and a bit ago where an Arch update broke Grub for a huge number of users.

No distro is immune to breakage.

Depends, are you trying to poop, or doing the 3 day challenge?

More like people like to act smug and pretend it isn’t.

Based on what?

They specified Unraid.

Well said.

The spirit of Self-Hosting is trying things and then asking specific questions when you get stuck (stuck includes having no luck using a search engine).

Don’t believe in it.

I don’t need help with anything, thanks.

And yet that doesn’t make your initial comment any more coherent.

Then you should do so rationally.

If you could coherently phrase the issue, it might be an easy one to solve. As it stands your comment is impossible to decipher.

Neither can you, apparently.

Which game are you talking about?

Nope. That freedom would be a right.
