Arch-related Slogans
Hello, I'm using conky/shuf to display random slogans from a file as part of my desktop "wallpaper."
For example
-------------------
A Lightweight and Flexible Linux Distribution
----
Any ideas for others?
I have some of the obvious ones (e.g. Keep It Simple, Stupid) but I'm having trouble being creative.
All apologies if there is a previously existing slogan thread somewhere around here.

Oh, come on. You guys know you spend perfectly good time on pointless projects like this as well! 
(At least I hope so. I wouldn't want to be the odd man out.)

You could use Leonardo Da Vinci's "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication"

"Be part of Arch" from Sloganizer sounds great.

Re: Arch-related Slogans
Welcome /home
Zen and the art of bash scripting.
Simply sophisticated. Wickedly sharp.
A cut above the rest.
Elegantly executed. Wickedly sharp.
...just a few of the slogans I've thrown on wallpapers in the past.

Sloganizer is good: «Arch will be for you what you want it to be.»

Re: Arch-related Slogans
Yep: «Pure Arch. Pure Power.»
Or: «Arch - simplyfied.»
Sloganizer can give sometimes ideas

Re: Arch-related Slogans
You guys are great. I remember reading the 45% reference in a thread a while back.
I haven't been around long enough to understand the big deal with tacos though.
