[03:25] <bwmaker> Arch is evil.
[03:30] <Unit193> Haha. ;D
[03:30] <Unit193> What?
[03:48] <bwmaker> A friend recommended that if I really wanted to learn linux from an admin/engineer point of view, install Arch on bare metal. I probably shouldn't have started at 8PM. :)
[03:49] <bwmaker> I've done it before, but now, during install, it's only wanting to mount my root partition as read-only.
[03:49] <Unit193> wrst says he can get it done in half an hour.
[03:49] <bwmaker> :-|
[03:50] <Unit193> Of course, when you break something and have to re-install every week that'll do it. ;)
[03:51] <bwmaker> lol
[03:52] <bwmaker> Yeah, I can see how it can make you faster and improve one's 1337 h4x0r skillz.
[03:54] <Unit193> (he doesn't actually re-install every week, but he's done it a few times.)
[03:58] <bwmaker> Welp... apparently it's not good for me to be working on this late at night. I was trying to mount sd1 instead of sda1. Problem solved. Not Arches fault.
[19:59] <bwmaker> Afternoon, folks.
[19:59] <Unit193> Howdy.
[20:16] <bwmaker> How's it going, Unit193?
[20:19] <Unit193> I'm alive?  Had to fix a patch that uses ^M line endings. >_<
[20:19] <Unit193> You?
[20:27] <bwmaker> Good. Testing out some time based events... which can only be scheduled on 15 minute intervals, so that can easily eat up a lot of time.
[20:27] <bwmaker> It's been a long day. :)
[20:28] <Unit193> Tried out Manjaro and Void in a VM last night, both Xfce versions.
[20:29] <bwmaker> Unit193: Void's a new one on me. Another package manager, though? Really?
[20:29] <bwmaker> :)
[20:30] <bwmaker> Don't we have plenty?
[20:31] <Unit193> Clearly not!  Another!
[20:31] <bwmaker> "its package manager and build system have been written from scratch."
[20:33] <Unit193> Yeeeep.  Uses LibreSSL though.
[20:34] <bwmaker> ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
[20:47] <bwmaker> I did Arch installed last night, but my lan adapter isn't working. I followed the instructions for the dhcpcd service, but doesn't seem to want to work. going to dig into that tonight.
[21:09] <wrst> Unit193: I can do it to a working gnome in 30 minutes after doing it a few times
[21:09] <wrst> I beat my head on a wall for half a day first go around with it :)
