I have never even heard that was a thing. Wow.

Another way to flex is to go on "programming" discord servers and shit on any sami-controversial take a 13y/o has there. /s

but where is your recognition of the tens of millions off bad command executions that happen in small IT shops every month?

A bad command execution in a small IT shop will only bring down a couple of websites at most. A bad command execution in large cloud providers can literally make significant portions of the web unavailable, just by the sheer number of services dependent on it.

The same applies for most of the "practical realities" you noted out: Redundant infrastructure can only work as well as the software running on it. The convenience is not worth the risk.

st all the way. Quick to launch and it works well

We have already seen the effects of over-reliance on a few CDNs and cloud providers: One bad push, one ill intentioned employee and potentially entire portions of the web might become unaccessible. That by itself should have been the end of this business model long ago

And even then the packages you mentioned aren't maintained in the main repositories (I think).

And even not as a meme, it just isn't productive as a post in general. Seriously the amount of times I've seen a different "better neofetch" both here and when I used reddit is absolutely bonkers

I get surprised every time I see this meme as I've been running arch for about 6 years and I have never experienced anything system-breaking after an update. I once had no graphics because Nvidia had stopped supporting the GTX650, and updating the driver made it stop working. But I have seriously never had any problems updating.

...Mind you, I do use CSM and GPT-BIOS (GRUB) because I am stubborn like that.
