Besides that one time power goes out more often in California. In Texas you just have a temporary price surge you could treat like a blackout if you wanted to. The difference is it’s less often and you have a choice.
Arch is not hard… at all. Everyone says it is hard but no one can cite why. There is always the option of using a traditional linux installer wizard and it installs just as easy as any other distro. Then the only difference is you have a different command for your package manager. It runs the same software. I’m tired of hearing that there are meaningful differences between these distros when the only major difference is “command install packagename” vs “different_command install packagename”. Woah there. I think this is going to be too complicated for new users.
The only other major difference is arch ships the configs that the developers recommend as a default while ubuntu tries to be as aggressive with some of the software as they can be. My experience is sometimes this breaks thing (at least did back in the day) depending on updates and your hardware. This leaves you trouble shooting the most low level stuff. I’ve had to do more high level tech support for myself every year I’ve run Ubuntu than I have in 6 years of running Arch.
Maybe Arch users shout Arch because we know it’s the easiest distro we’ve used and we want to save new users the headache that comes from accepting the BS marketing on Ubuntu as real. The more a distro tries to accomplish the more they are going to fail the more it is you who will hold the bag for fixing it. So the distro that does the least is actually the easiest one. If you pick manjaro or artix you get the install wizard and its as easy to install as Ubuntu but with less broken stuff once it is running.
Next time something breaks in your ubuntu just know that if you were running arch it would have never happened.
Because debian is a vanilla distro that does as little as possible, so it isn’t extra work to use it. Do you know what other distro tries to be as vanilla as possible. Arch. So if you just use the install wizard Debian and Arch are equal difficulty. AKA the easiest. Don’t buy the Ubuntu marketing hype. Just because someone labels themselves the easiest doesn’t mean it’s true. Just because another distro is labeled hard doesn’t mean it’s true.
So do they just maintain their initial velocity or would we have a chance to discover the static reference velocity of the universe?
Also they would still be affected by gravity if they still exist in space. Gravity is not a force that pulls objects together. It is merely the act of going straight in curved space. Either they are in that space and they are going to move along it within the shape of that space or they are not in that space. Though really if they just moved in a straight line with no external forces they are going to be subterranean because a real straight line in our space is down.

They think LGBT is benefited by having more visibility. In reality it puts them center stage for anti-LGBT rhetoric and the world is more antagonistic. In the 90s nobody cared about the gays.
And because linux is 99% just the programs you install on it when you do upgrade to a new version you aren’t being forced into a new system. This is why distro wars are pointless.
He hasn’t committed a crime. If he has why are there multiple real estate developers in NY willing to admit in public “I do that same crime every day if that’s a crime.”
Or it makes it so someone doesn’t have to pay a full penalty before due process for something that is basically guaranteed to loose on appeal in the long run. Apparently civil rights matter until it’s one of your enemies.
This is why you don’t duel boot. If Windows can’t play nice with others it doesn’t get to exist at all. Proton+Steam means there is never a reason to run windows at all. “But I need some non-game windows applications.” K. Proton is able to reliably run games in a library of tens of thousands of games with all kinds of bad programming and obscure hardware use. It’s a standard for being able to run windows apps in linux that is going to cover any other application you have.
