Wow, who knew Arch Linux could level up from 'elite hacker's toy' to 'game dev's tool'? Guess those rolling updates are just boss fights in disguise. 🎮🖥️ #ArchLinux #GameDev #TechEvolves

If you're an Arch user who uses paru as your AUR helper and pacman wrapper, you may not know about a really useful opt-in feature it has
Go edit ~/.config/paru/paru.conf and uncomment a line containing `NewsOnUpgrade`
When enabled, paru will automatically check for news on archlinux.org on every system update – which is a really useful thing to have to avoid installing (very rare) breaking changes requiring manual intervention or to know about policy / infrastructure changes, etc.

Whoever at @kde made it so that #Plasma remembers resolution and scaling settings for each individual monitor indefinitely is an absolute hero.
Plugged your computer into your TV? Boom! Scaling and resolution applied.
Plug it back into the monitor on your desk? Bam! Settings restored.
Plug it back in at your friend's house you haven't been to since last year? Kaboom! Perfect settings, because you did it before.

I woke up to a comment so smug, so perfectly soaked in gatekeeping and faux-righteous posturing, it earned its own blog post.
You want freedom? You want GNU/Linux to mean something?
Then maybe start by not telling disabled users to go fuck themselves with a smile.
This commenter thought they were defending "software freedom." What they were really doing was kicking people out of the room. Dismissing accessibility. Mocking effort. Pretending that cruelty is some kind of rite of passage. They quoted Stallman like it was scripture, ignored real-world experience like it was noise, and wrapped it all in condescension dressed as virtue.
I’ve spent over a decade in this ecosystem. Writing patches. Rebuilding broken stacks. Helping blind users boot systems upstream doesn’t even test. I didn’t "just install Arch and whine about the terminal." I lived in it. I survived it. I held it together when maintainers disappeared and no one else gave a damn.
But apparently, because I didn’t call it GNU/Linux™ and because I dared to talk about how this OS chews people up and spits them out, I’m lazy. I’m weak. I should "get a dog."
So I wrote a response. Line by line. No mercy. No euphemisms.
This isn’t just about one comment. This is about every time someone’s been told they don’t belong because they couldn’t learn fast enough, code well enough, or survive long enough. It’s about everyone who was pushed out while the gatekeepers patted themselves on the back for "preserving the spirit of free software."
You want a free system? Start by making it livable. Because freedom that demands you crawl bleeding through a broken bootloader isn’t freedom. It’s abandonment dressed in ideology.
And if this kind of gatekeeping is your idea of community?
You can keep it.

Eu desisti rapidamente do #archlinux acho muito bonito quem curte e faz os sudos nos terminais da vida, mas eu busco coisa prática, infelizmente não tenho tempo e também já nem tenho saco
