Too stupid to use a reliable OS

Ok I think this is where I draw the line. Not only are you just plain wrong, you have some kind of anti-social personality issues. I don't think there's any point in engaging in any kind of conversation with you as you have made it meaningless.

and yet that is not denying i made a good point. the mistake you made here is you think i care about getting a rando internet stranger's approval over my parameters of how i must survive and succeed. and boy did i hand you a good one if all your comeback here was just about how much i didnt kiss your specific ass enough.

You are right, that was my mistake. Let me fix it:

You made a terrible point. Both in your last post and here.

It really sounds like a lot more effort than it actually is in reality, but as I said, use what you want :)

Arch in my opinion is for people who want to tinker with their system, and set everything up from scratch. If thats not what interests you then theres no point going through the process of installing everything and configuring every minute detail just to get to a usable system.

I disagree with a lot of other arch users who try to convince people to try arch, and i think its because as humans theres a part of us that wants to share/bring others into our "group", but I think in the long run thats bad for arch because it gives it a bad rep because its recommended to people it wasnt made for.

Personally because i like tinkering and having a fully custom system, im happy with it, and havent really had any issues with games or otherwise.
