Not to be "that guy" who doesn't trust everything he reads on the internet, but... what credible sources are saying that "most of the internet troll groups are ... pushing right wing narratives? I wonder how they would track such a thing.

Yes. I have it set up this way. I forgot it wasn't the default. For the amount of headache it would solve, I wonder if the Arch team has a specific reason for not keeping a number of previous kernels by default.

I haven't used Windows since Win7 - Is it possible nowadays to immediately cancel a kernel-level upgrade (say, Win7 to Win8) and have it gracefully stop and then boot into the pre-upgrade environment? If so, then Windows has come a long way. We use to be careful breathing-too-loudly around Windows computers during the upgrade process. Microsoft must be getting better.

Out of curiosity: Which operating system(s) can you shutdown while the kernel is being overwritten? I wouldn't imagine that as a limitation of Arch Linux specifically.

Unpopular Opinion:

I think Tucker Carlson is a piece-of shit and a coward. That said, there is no contadiction in someone hating the bravest person they know.

The best way you can help fight climate change is to not have children.

Any alien species that is aware of our satellites is so technically superior to us they wouldn't bother. The James Webb Telecope is our best, but we still aren't certain we've named all the planets in our own solar system.

I'm continually impressed at how good Joe Biden is at running this vast, secret, deep state network of people rigging everything... while being so bad at anything else.
