You make a great point. Why be slave to a tool, right? If the box is just the way to get to what you really need to do, you aim at what you want to do and not the box. So, setting up Arch Linux, in that sense, is a bad investment. I’m ok with that.
Now let’s think about it this way. Because I set up my box the hard way, whenever the box fails for some reason, I’m better equipped to find what’s wrong with it. Since I lost the of fear of dirtying my hands to achieve what I need, I wear the mechanic jumper on and I go about doing what is need to get it going again. Setting the box, in this sense, was an investment in myself. I now have the knowledge. And we all know that from France is Bacon.
So both things can be true. You are right; I am right. So now the question is: why the cheap joke? And you’ve answered already in the first paragraph of your comment.
Anyway, thank you for bringing more food for our thought table. It has been a wonderful meal so far.
Oh, now I’m excited. Thank you for engaging.
