  • Youre right for most systems that are advertised as stable. Arch however is rolling release, so this doesnt apply. You get package updates as soon as theyre available pretty much. So no, the fault lies with the user when it comes to arch 99% of the time

    Edit: i also said the blame shifts to the user if they don’t do something the maintainers specifically say you should do before every update. If you check the arch news, update, and it breaks then yes, the fault is with the maintainer. However this rarely happens nowadays. Ive been on arch for almost 6 years and have not had to do a reinstall ever.


  • It really sounds like a lot more effort than it actually is in reality, but as I said, use what you want :)

    Arch in my opinion is for people who want to tinker with their system, and set everything up from scratch. If thats not what interests you then theres no point going through the process of installing everything and configuring every minute detail just to get to a usable system.

    I disagree with a lot of other arch users who try to convince people to try arch, and i think its because as humans theres a part of us that wants to share/bring others into our “group”, but I think in the long run thats bad for arch because it gives it a bad rep because its recommended to people it wasnt made for.

    Personally because i like tinkering and having a fully custom system, im happy with it, and havent really had any issues with games or otherwise.






  • Your first issue which is evident from your post is that you think Android = Samsung and vice versa. Thats not how android works.

    To answer your question, I like android, but Im on a degoogled operating system called /e/os. Granted it might not be for you if you dont care about privacy (why tho?) but just the fact that anyone can take stock android and do stuff like create a whole new (degoogled in this case) operating system is so much better then iOS


  • Yeap thats what i do. My handle (dont know its proper name) will only fit the blades if you snap them in half. I just buy the cheapest ones since i only ever use each half for one shave anyway. I also just got the cheapest handle I could find on the internet that ships to me, so you definitely dont need anything fancy i think. I guess in a year I could invest in something nicer, but for now it gets the hair off my face so im not worried

    Also, glad to know my misfortune at least made you laugh 😂


  • First time I tried, my face looked like I was put in a sack with a cat and thrown into a river, but in fewer attempts than I expected I got good at it. Now I almost never cut myself. One time, and it was the last, I rushed and cut myself quite deep on my chin to the point I had a few layers of skin hanging, but nothing that couldn’t heal without stitches. I just snipped it with some small scissors I keep in the bathroom and continued shaving, though it was bleeding quite a bit and quite stingy.

    I also keep a pack of the regular single use Gillette’s on hand for times I’m in a rush, and for the downstairs area since theres no way the other sharp blade is going anywhere near there.

    I foam with a horsehair brush and regular cheap cream that comes in a tube.
