  • “documenting the change” is a pipe dream.

    If you’ve ever worked in maintenance, active production, etc, you’ll be lucky to even have schematics. And trust me, there are a lot of hacks of people fucking with controls for 30+ years straight that soooo much of it is full of “fixes” like this, whether it’s something pushing a button in, or pieces of metal instead of fuses, or wires jumping over what’s “in the way” like whole safety systems and e-stops, contactors forced to run, etc etc etc.











  • Well remember when that Arch update broke grub?

    I couldn’t boot into my PC at all. And for whatever reason, the fix they posted on the Arch wiki wasn’t working for me.

    I deleted my bootloader in a live ISO environment and installed a different one (rEFInd). It was actually very easy.

    Having the flexibility and power to do whatever you want to your system is truly something I deeply appreciate with Linux.
