I had to drop down to the terminal just to get my Xbox controllers to work properly

So you're trying to connect a device to your PC which is literally made by Linux' biggest opponent in the OS market who does not provide drivers for other platforms so that the driver has to be reverse engineered and then complain that this is a bit hacky?

I also had to drop to the terminal to see what video card driver I had installed and to install the actual one I wanted.

Package management (including gfx drivers) can be done in YaST with GUI.

Device Manager can tell you everything about any device you have connected and allow you to update, uninstall, and rollback device drivers. I know no GUI on Linux has that.

Luckily, linux drivers are provided as kernel modules and there should be no need to update, uninstall or rollback device drivers besides when the manufacturers don't comply to open standards.

Despite all that, terminal is incredibly useful and can get tasks done orders of magnitude faster than the best GUI ever could.

Linux has gotten to that point, in OpenSuse you can do almost everything with a gui (you can't do everything without a console in Windows and Mac either).

Because she will expierence sexual abuse there.

I have no expierence with the steam deck, so dunno what's up with that. Never expierenced something like that on my PCs tho.

Yes, the flags can be unintuitive for beginners, S stands for sync, which will sync the package(s) specified thereafter with the remote repositories. If the packages aren"t installed it means installing them, if they are already installed it means updating them to the version that is the latest version in the remote repository. Full system update is done by pacman -Syu, where y tells pacman to synchronize the package lists first and u selects all packages that are older than the ones in these package lists for the S.

You can easily learn all that by using fish (or zsh with a sufficient config) instead of bash. Then, you can enter pacman - and hit TAB to get a list of allowed flags and a brief description. Choose one, hit TAB again and get a list of flags that go with the one you selected before, again with a description right out of the man-page. BTW, that works with a lot of command line programs and is imo almost necessary to get in touch with the shell.

Arch Linux

Reasons:

• Pacman
• the AUR
• community driven
• bleeding edge
• pragmatic stance regarding closed source software
• sane defaults
• minimalism, build your own without too much compiling
• the wiki

We all know who the arsonists are. They are giving interviews on public broadcasting to Herr Biedermann.

Maybe you can accompany them :3

I don't even get what this one is about.

Infinity is only a concept, nothing is infinite.

There is a link to their own F-Droid repo, also it is in Izzys repo iirc. Beta version works just fine imo, but I prefer öffi and use transportr only sonetimes when I'm in a new city

Transportr is what you're looking for.

You can only rsync a file system, you have to do the partioning beforehand. It does preserve all attributes though, if you use the right flags.
