...that does indeed look very similar, but my solution makes it so that if waybar crashes it doesn't even matter, which I quite like, even if the segfault has been fixed.

This isn't really fair, the guy was just unlucky, the vast majority of people could easily get a gila monster and keep it as a pet, and it would be a very good pet.

Their venom is not particularly dangerous, this man was just already unhealthy and so the little bit the venom did did him in.

If the average young healthy person had a pet gila monster, their venom would be absolutely no concern at all unless they're allergic. There's a reason this is the first death in nearly 100 years!

It’s not Arch. It doesn’t do things the way Arch does. It caters to people who don’t ever want to think about what kernel version they run.

That is exactly why it should do what I said, on arch I never have to think about this, on manjaro, you have to manually switch it out for no real reason.

Here’s what I consider simple. I install the distro. That’s it, I’m done. I don’t have to tinker with the kernel, or with drivers, or with anything. It just works.

Then endeavoros is simple and manjaro is absolutely not. Manjaro fails to "just work" literally constantly. Remember when linus tried to use it and a steam update uninstalled his DE? shit like this constantly happens manjaro side. It's a comedy of errors.

And yes I realize that’s complete nonsense to an Arch user, to whom tinkering with this stuff is the whole point. Which is why I keep saying, Manjaro is not Arch, stop bashing your head against the wall, you’ll only hurt yourself and hate the experience.

If you don't want to tinker at all, use fedora, it's exactly designed for your exact usecase. The problem isn't that manjaro doesn't do the things you're saying, it's that for everything you want, there is a significantly better choice than manjaro.

why would they not just use linux-lts then? that's still insanity. and eventually the LTS versions get out of date and you have the exact same problem just later, there's no need for this, just install both linux-lts and linux like arch does and it'll get out of the way, and you can easily fall back to linux-lts if something goes wrong, it's a much simpler system, versioning the packages completely defeats the purpose of updating your system. It's so much simpler than what you're describing and this is the distro that's supposed to be easier to use?

If you're using gnome/kde, I see no reason not to run immutable, the advantages of not being immutable are that you can piece together your system, if you're running i3/sway/whatever, being able to choose your panel, your launcher, etc actually has value.

The advantages of immutable are that you'll never end up with a broken system, you can easily roll back to a not broken one if something does break, and the system is separate from your apps.

This isn't enough information to explain someones behavior and anyone that claims to understand this person without a comprehensive analysis of their childhood is lying to you, the real answer is that there will always be people that defy all logic and trying to find the reason for each individual will prove fruitless, one can only speculate without far more interaction than you will ever have as only this persons nurse/doctor, there are an unbelievably massive number of reasons (and fantasies) that end in these behaviors, the best you can do is recognize that while you don't know the reasons, this human is damaged and needs help and sympathy, and still do your best for them even if, due to their damaged psyche, they are insufferable.

Arch has an awesome installer now so this is pretty dated.

Why should we abolish my coat? Wheres logic in that? And how, at the same time, does it magicaly can be mine PERSONAL, mine PRIVATE, and (in sugested future) a collectives property?

Nobody gives a fuck about your coat, do you honestly think that's the problem marxists have with private property? that someone might... rent out their coat? that's not the kind of thing we're trying to solve here, it's also something literally nobody does in the real world.

If you worked in a coat factory, and you make 100 coats a day, how much should you be paid for that? I believe profit is the stolen value of labor, so, the worker should make the value of 100 coats if they make 100 coats, that's the injustice we're trying to solve.

I own someones lawn and they clean my coat (barter exchange) - my coat is PERSONAL or PRIVATE? How does that differ if money involved?

I'd say that's personal, if you're paying them to clean your coat, i'd say they have a coat cleaning business and the coat cloaners should own that business... which it sounds like in this example they already do, so, nothing needs to change.

Now change the “coat” into the “factory” (a “garage”, a “hammer”, a “boat”), what’s the diference?

Whether you're one of the workers or not changes. If it's a coat factory, you just own the factory, and make money off the stolen labor value, while contributing nothing. In your examples, you actually are contributing, which makes you a worker, and someone who should get the full value of your labor.

More work to implement a WM without using something like wlroots? That's a fundamentally flawed argument, you seem to believe there is no X protocol, when in fact, X11 is just an implementation of the X protocol, just like wlroots is an implementation of the wayland protocol.

Have you ever tried implementing the X protocol without X11? Good luck. There's no other implementations because creating one is awful. Wlroots solved the same problem as X11 did, actually implementing the protocol in a way that other projects can make their own WM's/whatnot easily.

wlroots IS equivalent to X11, wayland is equivalent to the X protocol. Nobody has reimplemented the X protocol.

wlroots is an implementation, just like x11, so, yes, that is how it works on the x.org side of things.
