You don’t really compile anything during or after install with arch linux unless you find something on the AUR that needs to compile? If so, just look for <package_name-bin>.

Otherwise, a really nice system is NixOS.

Another is GNU Guix.

And Krita!

i think Zotero is indeed open source, free software

I think you might like to try it. Maybe to get a taste for it try the nix package manager first. Right now I’m kind of struggling on whether or not NixOS is the one for me or Gnu Guix. Both are pretty awesome.

Right, thank you. I haven’t had my coffee yet. I should have been more clear.

Okay, so I haven’t installed Debian in quite some time, but I think I know what’s happening here.

It’s looking for the CD / DVD “repos” because it may be enabled in your apt sources. You just have to comment out the lines involved with CD and DVD in your /etc/apt/sources.list file I think.

Uh, yeah. Cheers

Says them, I guess. Feels kinda weird to me.

And at this time, our telemetry system won’t be rolled out to any team or business using 1Password.

Uhh, what? If it’s opt-in why does it matter if team or business doesn’t have this? Different standards? To go through such lengths to explain this telemetry stuff to convince people, “Oh, no worries, yo! It’s OPT-IN! Trust us!” feels very dirty to me.
