Today i learned that manjaro has, in parts, german roots and is maintained by a german company. For that i, as a german myself, want to strongly apologize in the name of the german people!!

    They have had their fair share of (sometimes easily avoidable) fuck-ups.

    Stuff like:

    • letting their websites SSL certificate expire (multiple times)
    • telling users to set the date in their OS back to when the cert was still valid as a workaround
    • accidentally DDoS’ing the AUR (I think multiple times too?)
    • IIRC also some internal struggle about how to use the money donated to them

    Especially the SSL cert hurts. They cannot auto-renew their websites SSL cert (and didn’t seem to learn from their first mistake) and they want to maintain a linux distro?

        What hardware and software do you use for this? I’ve been trying on and off for maybe a year trying to get an HP Reverb G2 working with envision/monado. My most recent struggles were with lining up build dependencies, like boost, cnmatrix, etc., which I chalked up to version incompatiblies between Manjaro/AUR.
