    Ah yes, the "delete system32 to free up space" of the modern era.

    That feeling when you're discovering "yes" for the first time from a random internet meme after using Linux for 2 decades πŸ˜…

    Oh sure, hand in your root password to Jarvis, makes running things smoother.

    This probably doesn't work. Many packages will have glibc as a dependency and pacman doesn't break that unless you tell it to (IIRC pacman -Rdd)

    Note to future readers: deleting gnu library for C and C++ used by the Kernel, and deleting its dependencies, recursively, could potentially prevent your operating system from utilizing your CPU, and will absolutely cause problems with any Linux install, which is sort of a bad idea.

    the kernel itself does not depend on glibc. that is ridiculous. if it did, it would not be able to mount the root filesystem, since the glibc it needed to do so would be on the filesystem it was about to mount.

    what does depend on glibc is virtually every other program on the system, including systemd.

    the kernel would boot but it would not get much farther than that. the kernel would start systemd as pid 1, systemd would try to load glibc and fail, systemd would exit, and the kernel would immediately panic because pid 1 died

    I sure hope people don’t take advice from memes, but you never know…

    Are you kidding? Some of these people get their news from memes entirely.

    In some societies official representatives and news outlets are even less trustworthy than memes. Russia, USA, North Korea, dozens of them.

    Fucking christ man, I just woke up and you're already flinging your shit at others

    This place is starting to get worse than reddit. Same amount of crazies, but much higher density and not nearly enough of the normal, self-aware people to make it bearable.

    Nice try, but yes does not help against error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
