    Try installing something from homebrew.

    Oh you just want to install this one package here? Ok but let’s update 60 other packages first. Don’t worry, it will only take about one minute. Per package.

      Bruh have fun on x86_64 since you have to compile them all (at least I had to, I might have broken something)

      When I was new to linux and got a raspberry pi 1. I was following some random guide to put retroarch on the pi. I did not know what I was doing, but it took at least 24 hours if not more.

      Years later I realized that the guide had me compiling it from source instead of just installing a precompiled package.

      Real talk I’ve been using this I’ve mashed together:

      update_brew() {
          bold=$(tput bold);
          normal=$(tput sgr0);
          brew --version &&
          echo "${bold} > brew update${normal}" &&
          brew update &&
          echo "${bold} > brew upgrade${normal}" &&
          brew upgrade &&
          echo "${bold} > brew autoremove${normal}" &&
          brew autoremove &&
          echo "${bold} > brew cleanup${normal}" &&
          brew cleanup &&
          echo "${bold} > brew doctor${normal}" &&
          brew doctor;
      }

    One of the reasons I love pacman. A whole system update within a minute or two (depending on the particular system ofc)

    Oops, missed a dash, so now you’ll have to come back and finish.

    “Knock it off Julian, I know how good my coffee is, I’m the one who buys it. When Bonnie goes shopping, she buys shit. I buy the more expensive coffee because when I drink it, I want to taste it. But you know what’s on my mind right now? It ain’t the coffee in my kitchen…”

      It’s used for scripting. Apt specifically recommends against using it in scripts.

    I think everyone should try Gentoo at least once, for the experience. Why download binaries when you can compile everything?

    I updated my RPi zero running pi hole today. I had to disable pi hole, and even then it took well past half an hour to update…

      This as my first thought. When running these commands in my pi1 or zero I go get a sandwich and come back an hour later

        Pi zero is many times less powerful than the pi3 but still perfectly fine for lots of simple tasks. Just takes forever to update.

    Do this with a typo in sources.list and uninstall the complete system at once. Happened to me once, happened to me twice. 10/10 will happen again
