Re: The Official Unofficial 'Arch is Best' Thread
My university actually hosts arch mirrors, so a lan cable and Pacman -Syu is almost instant, but since when was it not the fastest package manager? XD
High speed mirror, but only while you are still studying something.
I may have to CONSOLE you about your usage of ridiculously easy graphical interfaces...
Look ma, no mouse.

Yep, that's the third time this week we've found this guy actually sleeping in the classroom trying to pull an overnighter.

Re: The Official Unofficial 'Arch is Best' Thread
So far everything just works in Arch (I actually use Manjaro). All Ruby and Python programs work immediately without errors which in Ubuntu was a big mess. Arch is fast and responsive. The community and developers are quick to fix and add new applications, drivers, features, etc. The Wiki is fantastic and is usable for people using other distros too. I love Pacman and Yaourt. I am starting to learn though that I should not mess with things that I think I know but actually do not...
Keep it up, Arch developers!

Re: The Official Unofficial 'Arch is Best' Thread
Just returned to Arch after nearly 5 years just using Ubuntu / Fedora and I have to say ARCH IS SIMPLY THE BEST!!
But many things have changed... who would have thought back then, that Arch would once survive without an rc.conf and AIF...
