    Me updating my Arch install in the morning at school (there’s faster connection):

    But, with current install I finally started writing logs of all manual changes I make (config updates, created symlinks outside home dir, package installations, etc…). I’ll finally know what I did instead of trying to guess what weird thing I did 2 years ago.

      This is a fantastic idea. Keep a config diary. I can imagine a teenager doing this and eventually getting in trouble with the law. Parents open the diary only to discover scribbled bash scripts in confusion.

      For real, though, I’m going to journal it all and upload to NextCloud.
