I’m moving my posts from Reddit to Lemmy before delete them.
This post is from 2020-08-12.
Which are you?
alias update=sudo timeshift --create --comments update && sudo pacman -Syu
or
alias yolo=yes | sudo pacman -Syu
I’m the
echo "sudo pacman -Syu" >> .bashrc
This is the first I’m hearing of timeshift. I will be looking into this.
I first discovered Timeshift through Garuda, which had it set up by default. It mitigates the issue of bleeding-edge updates breaking your system.(Although they use Snapper now, which is supposedly better with BTRFS.)
timeshift supports btrfs snapshots tho
Alias yolo=yes 😂 I know what new alias I’m creating on my laptop and rasp pi’s 😂

When you install or update something that breaks something, like has happened to me many times, to the point that the system cannot boot, you can pick a snapshot from the grub menu from before those changes occurred, allowing you to recover your system to a working state without the use of a live boot usb.
It’s also been useful when some program or other stops working due to some change in a dependency somewhere, like OBS sometimes does. Then you can just hop backwards in time to a point where it works and get to actually using your system, instead of spending hours tracking down exactly where an error is occurring right then and there. “fixing it later” becomes a valid way of dealing with problems with your system, when just pressing a button lets you make it temporarily go away.

It works however you like, you can define which parts of the system get snapshotted. The default leaves your home folder untouched, meaning downgrading your system to an earlier point in time should never meany our user files are affected.

Are you some automation to migrate your posts? Cause I have been thinking of doing it. But it’s too much work.
To be fair, I thought about that however saw posts from other people that blocked from posting because of the automation. Also I think the automation process is pretty much botched thanks to API change. So I handpick my posts, mostly skipping forum posts, that leaves image-based posts which are not that many, at least for me.
I appreciate the artisan selection 😜
Hahaha
Well, i guess there goes my shitpost history.
Maybe it can be still possible if you want data request from Reddit, since you’ll get your post links. Unless they’re NSFW, scrapping should work after that.
sudo !!
My most common command is probably yay -Syu
You can just do
yay
I never really understood why to use -Syu instead of just yay
By default, this is aliased to just
yay
Bloat. yay without -Syu does the same.
Used to hate when windows update between my work.
But since trying Arch, i do pacman Syu almost everyday.
Its kinda addicting, and it give some statisfactions for myself, i dont know why
But now I’m past that stage, and just update it like every 2 weeks.
Going to Gentoo, i repeat the same process again. Seeing the console log is hipnotising and give a statisfaction for me when it complete successfully. I update like every 3 days
Now i update once a month hahaha
doas, FTW
I update every 2-3 weeks or so. Is this really a thing?
Well, it’s a meme with some exaggeration so not really. But daily perhaps? :)
