with rolling release comes rolling responsibility
POV: You haven’t updated Arch for 5 minutes
Comparing the date on the tweet with the date when arch released go-2:1.26.1-1, it appears that it had been over a week since the last upgrade.

No one lies on the internet when cypherpunk is on the case!
5 minutes?
How does one go so long between updates?
That’s my secret; I’m always updating.
There should be a law against OS updates more frequent than once a month
I mean, just use any stable distro and you can live that life. Arch is good for its own reasons precisely because it’s this way.
Linux guy whipping out the “Actually, it’s a feature not a bug” line is very funny.
Well… it is a feature… we are talking about Arch here, a bleeding edge distro meant to be continuously updated.
Want to update once every couple of decades? Go pick something stable like Debian (also Linux BTW).
When the update takes 15 minutes instead of 2 hours and you have the option to pre-download it whenever you feel like, updating once a week is suddenly not a problem.
Does it take effort to be this ignorant, or were you born like this?
Thanks for reminding me!
> yay
If arch is so hard why are all their users so joyous going yay all the time?
Do you have a minute to talk about our lord and savior, archlinux?
Does it come with literature?
It comes with frequent failures to boot, and every update is a russian roulette that might just force you to spend the next few hours figuring out what the fuck broke down this time.
I don’t know what distro y’all are on, but I’ve been a beginner on an Arch based distro for a couple of years and I haven’t had a major issue that wasn’t fixed by an update and reboot.
Debian does! :3
No, just a wiki
