Now my question is, how should I deal with these pacnew files? should I always remove them, always replace them, always read them and decide?

Always read them and decide what to do. However, what to do usually isn’t too remove or replace them, but to update them with the changes instead. Most text editors have a way of looking at a diff of two files. This will highlight the differences and you can decide based on the individual changes (maybe it’s something you purposefully changed, maybe it’s a change to the default). If you use vim, vimdiff will do this.

I’d rather not read these things everyday, it’s a bit boring, so I hope there’s a better solution. How do you deal with these?

After you make your decisions on what to do, delete the pacnew, otherwise you’ll keep getting messages about it. They don’t get updated all that often (except mirrorlist, I usually just delete that and run reflector every once in a while).

cd without arguments takes you to $HOME, so it’s the same as cd ~

Sorry, but a similar design is already taken by the planet where everyone’s obsessed with The Ring

Sorry, i said it was a mersenne prime, then realized it wasnt, so edited it and deleted it. It was a mess

Is there a field in Tinder you can fill out with your job title?

Yes

And I’m asking how Tinder is verifying that.

They’re not. It’s fake

Disturbingly, yes

Yeah, it’s like saying I can “compress” a png of the Mona Lisa to just the string “Mona Lisa” because I have a database of art.

The reason they checked that it started with “Windows 9” was because it worked for “Windows 95” and “Windows 98”

People often use the OSI’s Open Source Definition when using the term “open source”. One of its criteria says “The license must allow modifications and derived works” which this license does not allow.
