>Try to upgrade Ubuntu from 22 to 24 LTS>entire machine brickedYeah I‘m buying a Mac, I‘m too old to spend my time fixing this bullshit time waste.
>I have a software problem so I will buy overpriced hardware You know you can just use windows like a normal person and be done with it
>>106818599every time I hear somebody complain about loonix experience I'm happy there's one less retard fucking up the linux ecosystem with their bullshit demands
>verk on my machine>use Linux Mint insteadFor the record I'm a Mint faggot but LTS upgrade is always dreadful since while I have yet fully brick my machine from my last 2 LTS upgrade, something minor always subtly break and I can already feel the foundation crumbling underneath.Too bad I just hate the other two OSes much, much more than loonix.
>>106818599Yeah, I got a VM stuck and I couldn't update it. Fortunately I don't run that trash on bare metal.
>>106818599Why does this happen? Why is upgrading from 22.04 lts to 24.04 lts such a PITA?
>>106819806it's probably thrid party PPAs
>>106818599filtered
>>106819806>>106819987>not a bug wont fix
its over
>>10681859920.04 was the last good version of ubuntu. If you're still using it just know you're the testing ground for tranny software
I updated through every version (.04 and .10) of Ubuntu since 18.04. The only issue I've had was ppas being a pain, but I stopped using them a while ago.
>>106821031this but unironically
>>106818631>windows
>>106825576I haven't had a bluescreen in like 6 years on the pc I use daily.
>>106824023This, but also the last time I upgraded, all third party repos were disabled automatically.OP is probably a retard.
Install AerynOS
>>106818599skill issue
>>106818599> Ubuntu> Expects smooth upgradesInstall Arch Linux if you want smooth upgrades that work forever. Or NixOS. Ubuntu and all traditional distributions have that problem, major upgrades break the OS.
>>106826414Never had this problem with Debian. Arch, on the other hand, will shit itself if you try to upgrade a machine you haven't touched in over a year.
>>106825667You have spyware, annoying ads, slowness all over the place, obnoxious distracting UI, shit terminal, but most people are used to it. I'm not saying you should change but windows is a no for many people, myself included. I have to use windows at work because the client decided to streamline OS and it's really bad for development compared to Linux. I just tolerate Windows.
I’m certain this is a troll thread.However, I feel obligated to advise Zoomtards that no machine is ever entirely bricked unless something is burned or melted. You can always fully wipe everything and rebuild.
>>106826432Debian has exactly the same problem and more. Try doing anything different from the wizards that Debian expects you to use and see crashes all over the place. At least with Debian you can more of less safely install another desktop environment or window manager, but it's not perfect, it also crashes with major upgrades. I used Debian a lot in the past and many other distros.I've upgraded a 3 year old no upgrades laptop that was sitting in my parents home and the only issue I had was installing certificates first. Unlike popular belief, Arch is very stable. It's just that it gives freedom and morons destroy it by not knowing what they're doing, for example, copy pasting commands not understanding them. Note that I'm not saying that's you.Arch problem is not stability, it's that you can only really rely on the latest versions of packages and that's not enough for some people. If that's the requirement install NixOS or use flatpaks in Arch.
>>106826460OP means he has to reinstall Ubuntu you pedantic moron. Just like Windows.
>>106818599I find it funny that every time there's an "upgrade broke" post, it is *never* accompanied by a screenshot of the error, despite `do-release-upgrade` always saving the complete logs and clearly pointing to them in its UI.
>Try to upgrade Ubuntu from 22 to 24why?
>>106826486Yeah not being pedantic but that’s not what “brick” means or has ever meant. Brick always specifically means you killed it. It’s dead Jim
>>106826577Most people say an OS is bricked if they can't fix it. It's not the computer that's bricked, it's the OS. Maybe the OS could be fixed without reinstalling in the hands of an experienced person but everyone understands what the OP meant. Point being, you're a very good example of an obnoxious pedantic person. Maybe use your pedantism to figure what pedantic means.
>>106818599macs also can get bricked by updates
>>106826486meanwhile on mac, you need a second mac to recover a bricked machttps://support.apple.com/en-us/108900
>>106826715Just when I think Apple can't get any dumber, someone in this board informs me they're even dumber. What's next? You need to show ID to revive the PC?
The only OS where updates are so smooth they are invisible and the only OS that physically cannot be bricked is Silverblue.
>>106827038You mean one of the several atomic distributions that are pretty much cheap knock off of NixOS but more restrict? It's not the only one.
>>106826632>words shouldn’t have meaningOk nigger
>>106818631windows is a tinkertranny os, too
>>106826715... I mean, if you need to reinstall loonix and have no install media, you still need a second pc to burn one or copy to usb.
>>106827581Yeah but you can use any PC or your mobile phone to do that.
>>106818599>>Try to upgradefound your problem
>>106826481I've upgraded a 18.04 Ubuntu install to 24.04 without a single hitch.
