I made a major mistake that bricked my system, all my fault, but I was able to plunge my arm into the smoldering pit it fell into and drag my install directly from the gates of hell. Still working great like half a year later and I now know not to do what I did before that broke it all.

    I switched over to development/experimental package repos cause I was impatient for a new feature. I switched back to prod but I didn't revert my packages. It worked fine for a couple weeks but they eventually became to outdated and I couldn't post.

    Luckily you can use a live stick to chroot in to fix. Felt pretty cool being able to do that, but yeah it was a stupid mistake lol. And I'm always gonna have a live USB on the side just in case I do something similarly bone headed.
