What do?

That's an incredibly cute boy

Going to install gnu/linux (Fedora) and Windows 10 on the same SSD. Bios or UEFI and why?

How often should I -Syu in arch?

are there any good ricing guides?
One that includes information on bitmap fonts with japanese characters?

>with no actual error

First check if rust’s -Werror equivalent is enabled by the build system. If not, make sure your toolchain is up date, and if it already is then get a different version/build from rustup or your distro.

It posts that, then the next line it
37 compiler warnings present
ccache (direct) hit rate: 0.0%; (preprocessed) hit rate: 0.0%; miss rate: 0.0%

It dosnt say anything else

UEFI is easier to manage, has a boot loader built in and has better pre-boot graphics support (faster init, higher resolutions, no switching back and forth between text mode).
