How can you live without AUR?

>windows is so much better. instead of using a package manager plus a repository for unofficial, compiled packages, you just download sketchy (((.exe))) files from pajeet websites instead

>real os

flatpack and snap

I guess glass houses aren't on the aur

>using st
>implying urxvt doesn't do everything
What a retard

>By using a real OS. Windows.

what?

I bet it also includes gcc on each packages

my entire life

CANNOT unsee

>not having a git script that gets everything you need from the upstream

eudev
openrc-arch-services-git
openrc-bash-completions
openrc-git

The only reason I still use Arch and not Void..etc..

Why are you even here faggot? There is some expectations of computing literacy when browsing this board...

Gentoo overlays > AUR

Void XBPS-SRC is essentially the same thing except you do the compilation yourself. I’m a fan.

Too bad void is dead

It's called Flatpak, and it will replace the AUR in a few years. Like it or not.

I don't use anything from the aur to be honest

The real question is why you're not using Gentoo (as a binpkg distribution if you can't afford compiling all the packages) altogether then. The only other difference from a un-systemd-ified Arch is the package manager.

Arch kiddies are too dumb to understand this

this. so much this.

I use ubuntu btw

nice, I dual boot Gentoo GNU/Linux and OpenBSD

>download deb file
>ubuntu installs it for me

Wow, and I didn't even expose myself to a 3rd party random user online who could do anything they want to the files I will install on my machine, ain't that crazy?!

wow, impressive. two times double repeating digits are really rare. Good job, lad.

Except the person who packaged the deb file, of course. And Amazon.

B-but mah bleeding edge updates!

Imagine falling for bait this hard

because slackbuilds exist

>Upgrades Ubuntu
>Manually installed deb packages break.
So practical.

From AUR I have:
android-studio
discord-canary
google-chrome
spotify
teamviewer
telegram-desktop-bin
tor-browser-en

>Discord
>Google-chrome
>Spotify
Kys

yikes

>telegram
yikes

is this bait?

I don't use this garbage distro, and I can compile or install binaries.

Why you think so?

Copr and RPMFusion

>and I can compile or install binaries

Attached: images.png (635x483, 27K)

Even if I was using arch I could write build scripts on my own, making AUR useless.

is there a reason you chose google-chrome over chromium?

>is there a reason
>arach user
Retardation ? Just a wild guess.

duplicated effort is a bad thing you know, you could just contribute to the aur instead

>Breaks your system

But I don't use arch.

Because ebuilds + overlays are much better.

I can just get the source and type make install without the middle man

But what if you wanted to uninstall it and the makefile didn't include any uninstall target?

>not using a ppa from upstream if really needed.

>using PPAs at all

actually lmao

You still trust Team viewer after they were compromised?

i cant

It doesn't. At least not in flatpak. Gcc is part of the org.freedesktop.Sdk, but that's only used when you are compiling a package.

I can't wait to get home and see how bad my list is.

for op: i don't
side note; i'm not sure if it's a good thing that everything is on the AUR, or a bad thing that i have to install so many things from the AUR
i suppose at the end of the day, 99% of things are /at least/ on the AUR (with the remaining 1% i just put on the AUR myself, because it's barely any more effort over manually installing something), making them easy to keep up to date

ugh you know you can run tor-bb from their site? you just unzip it and see start-browser-w/e

where do you think aur gets it from?

>except you do the compilation yourself.
so just like aur, do you retards even thunk?

>random user online who could
you would be the retard for running it without knowing what it does

>I was only pretending

Nice joke buddy

ikr? it's almost like the aur is more transparent

>t. i use arch btw [without using arch, guy]

SC =/= simple bash commands directly writing to your root

nice thunking fart there buddy

Linux is an operating system that is a variation of Unix made by Linus Torvalds; there are hundreds (thousands?) of different versions (called distributions, "distros" for short), but the versions that most people use as a desktop OS are Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, and Mint. There are server editions of each of those, as well, and enterprise-level versions like Red Hat Enterprise Linux and CentOS. Linux is ubiquitous on the internet as a server. A very large majority of websites/companies use Linux in some form or another. Linux web servers are the most common on the internet. I'd be willing to bet Sea of Thieves uses a Linux server of some kind.
There are pros and cons to it:
Pros:
-It's open source and most distros are free.
-It's rock solid stable; way more stable than Windows. My desktop computer has had uptimes in the 90-100 day range regularly, and this is even after system updates and even system crashes.
-It's MUCH harder to get viruses/spyware/malware on Linux. It is NOT IMPOSSIBLE, but there are a lot less viruses/malware for Linux, so running into one is a lot less common.
-There are tens of thousands of open-source software programs that are very close to their paid counterparts (Microsoft Office vs Libre Office, Adobe Photoshop vs GIMP). Honestly, I'm not a huge fan of Libre Office as I find the interface as much less refined as Microsoft Office.
-It is compatible with a large amount of hardware. Linux can be convinced to run on just about anything with a CPU, and there are drivers for a huge number of different pieces of hardware.
-There's a cool thing called a live CD, you can run it from a disk without modifying your system at all. Once you remove the disk (or USB stick, etc), you can boot right back to Windows or other OS and all data you used while in Linux is wiped out. Think of it like incognito mode for your whole system!

rm it manually

Cons:
-It has a very steep learning curve. If you've ever installed Windows from scratch onto a system, installing Linux isn't much different. You'll have a running desktop OS with a web browser (Chrome, Firefox, lots of others) that is more secure, less prone to crashes, and much less prone to viruses/spyware...But once you have a problem like a video card not working or the system suddenly won't boot up, the difficulty level ramps up very fast.
-For the most part, you cannot run Windows applications/games on it. You can run WINE, an emulator, that will let you run some Windows apps, but it can quickly get very complicated. I regularly play WoW this way and it works just fine. Anything that relies deeply on DirectX or .NET Frameworks will be extremely difficult, if not impossible to get to work. Sea of Thieves is one that would be borderline impossible to get to work due to its tight integration into Windows 10.
I am a Linux sysadmin for a large internet company. I work at their data center and work on Linux on a daily basis, so I'm very familiar with it. I'm actually more comfortable in Linux now than in Windows.
If you want to give it a try, check out www.ubuntu.com

ubuntu is crap
xubuntu with arc is where it's at

I don't use arch but I tried it. It's better to have tried things when you criticize them.

>B-but Arch is the distro for the neets with excessive free time!

Arch in general is way too much of a hassle, and for 99% of the software I use I don't give a shit about having a bleeding-edge version. When I do I either go grab it from Debian backports. Once or twice I wanted something Debian didn't have so I just compiled it myself.

what's hassle?

CRUX package manager is pure AUR. In fact, Arch was inspired by CRUX.

Except you do compile packages you get from the AUR if they pull from github like they’re supposed to, and xbps-src is possibly the most poorly documented piece of software I’ve ever seen.

You know you’re supposed to download tor browser directly from the site to resist fingerprinting, right?

Everyone I’ve ever heard talk about using it is also a degenerate furfag.

...

By using Portage overlays instead, of course.

urxvt is garbage. Bloated, slow and doesn't even have basic features such as the invisibility termcap.
st is tiny, lean and fast in comparison, and yet manages to be much more standards-compliant and even supports more features such as true color, unlike urxvt.
urxvt's daemon mode, also, is insecure: if one window crashes, all windows spawned from the daemon crash. With each terminal being its own individual process, you don't have this issue.
Plus, a urxvt daemon uses as much ram as 10+ st instances.

Suckless fags may be pretentious faggots, but boy can they make a terminal emulator.

urxvt also cant display utf8 correctly.
