I'll definitely take that into account.

As an example though, I use the AUR for the arr packages. If not from the AUR, where else would I get them? Would I need to clone the git and build them myself instead?

Thank you for the very detailed explanation! Makes sense now. I was of the mindset that Manjaro is an Arch derivative making it technically Arch and didn't really take the repos etc into account. Makes sense why they advise against the use of AUR

You've opened my eyes haha.

I appreciate the response, I always worry asking "noob" questions from all the elitist horror stories you hear around Linux

Sorry for my ignorance, Linux noob here, but what do you both mean by Manjaro isn't Arch?

I may be misunderstanding here and feel free to correct me if I'm wrong but I was of the understanding that Mint wasn't a good gaming platform because of the fact it's not bleeding edge

I would love to sign this but I'm in the UK. I'll spread the word instead!

I'm from the UK, I don't vote simply because I don't trust the shit politicians come out with during election periods and because of this I worry I will vote the wrong way. Time and time again promises are made and you never really seem to see the difference.

For example, and please correct me if I'm wrong, but it's been promised since Brexit more money will go into the NHS to release the pressure on the service. Yet the NHS seems to be in the worst condition currently it's ever been in.

Thank you for the detailed explanation!

Gotcha, thank you!

Please don't hurt me but what's an "immutable" distro?

PirateSoftware I believe it's who you're talking about. But yeah he didn't make it free, just priced well for that country

I'm glad I'm not the only one who doesn't get it

Hi,

Sorry if this has been posted before but I'm looking at trying Usenet instead of torrents.

I've done some Googling and honestly, it's a little overwhelming knowing what Usenet provider to use, where to get quality indexers and which download client would be the best.

If anyone has any resources or advice to help me sail the Usenet seas I would be eternally grateful!
