I mean technically you did "update" the OS. It wasn't a particularly useful command by going second, but I bet it was fast.

It's fine! You were trying to show how Windows is better because you can't make a mistake like that and succeeded!

I'm joking

Op inverted. apt update updates the local package cache of apt so it knows what packages have updates. apt upgrade then installs those updates.

I've started noticing websites just to refuse to work on Linux:

• Xfinity
• Microsoft
• United Airlines
• American Airlines

It's not like some weird script error either. It's straight up a 403 Forbidden on certain routes. Works perfectly fine if I switch to my Windows laptop. It's like it took one look at my user agent string and decided I was a bot.

Man they get really up in your business if you aren’t using Chrome and their dinky extension, that I swear he pulled from someone’s GitHub and rebranded as his own, which all it does is open file links in the file browser.

I made a point by switching my user agent on Zen Browser to report as Chrome, Ubuntu haven’t heard a peep about it yet.

Side note at one point in time the clock-in we use, which is also a web app, had its admin/manager panel exposed to everyone in the company, I reported it and all I got was a thanks.

People are creatures of habit and apt didn't always exist

I recall somewhere that it makes some kind of difference in scripts

When it updatedssystem files it'll do this when you shut down your computer.

If you never shut it down it never will lol

It updates just like Windows automatically, in Discover. Then it asks to restart and upgrade and it's just like Windows. I did this just today. Nice UI and UX with Fedora with Plasma.

What? I've never had fedora reboot itself. Sometimes it asks if I want to install updates on reboot or shutdown. But I am always in charge of when that happens.

The beauty of Linux is the triviality of creating an alias that runs whatever long or short update command by typing "upd" or "release_the_epstein_files". E.g., in ~/.bashrc, place:
alias release_the_epstein_files="sudo pacman -Syu --noconfirm"

Or ctrl+r and start typing what you're searching for, and repeat ctrl+r to find the next newest match.

For example, [C-r] ssh [C-r] [C-r] will auto fill the 3rd most recent ssh command you've run. Try it, your life will be filled with rainbows and unicorns.

Wait until they tell you about ctrl+r!

Wow, thank you for this.

There are even better ways built into the shell, but I can never remember any of them. I also never thought of history|grep, I think I might actually remember that one. Thanks!

You can just use yay , since you will be prompted for your password anyway.

You don't run yay with sudo.

ssu in config, yay -Syu
