This entire situation is just pure MAGA PR BS. Trying to pass these refunds back to consumers is extremely impractical, bordering on logistically impossible, and managing it would certainly cost more money than the amount of the actual refund.

They knew these tariffs would be passed on to consumers when they created them in the first place. In both cases, it's Trump trying to deflect the blame onto these companies for a situation that he created.

It’s literally just picking which snapshot you want to boot in the boot loader and then accepting the prompt to make that one the new default after you’ve verified it works. It’s not possible for old binaries to be running.

It’s a little more effort to maintain compared to something like nix, but Arch (including CachyOS) doesn’t have the same config drift problem as distros like Debian, because it has pacdiff to let you consolidate any updated defaults with your own settings.

CachyOS does this just fine with bootable BTRFS snapshots before and after each update, without forcing me to use Flatpaks that don’t support all of the features of the normal apps or else break the immutability. For example, it's not possible to get all Discord features working in Flatpak (even with tinkering) due to inherent limitations of Flatpak.

They were sued because of patents (which are also BS), not copyright.

There has always been new local privilege escalation bugs every month on Linux, and they’re not a big deal.

We call it CachyOS

I was ready to be annoyed that they had co-opted such an iconic name for some dumb fish that had no relation at all to the character… and then I saw the picture.

That is one Snuffleupagus-looking son-of-a-bitch.

I have no reason to use a raw distro that requires customization when there’s a better version that already comes preconfigured.

Roku still exists?
