Installing Arch without pacstrap is easy. No, you won't use archbootstrap. That is only for chroots. Instead, you will do it hand made.
First, make the file system.
mkdir -m 0755 -p /path/to/root/var/{cache/pacman/pkg,lib/pacman,log} /path/to/root/{dev,run,etc/pacman.d}
mkdir -m 1777 -p /path/to/root/tmp
mkdir -m 0555 -p /path/to/root/{sys,proc}
cp -a /etc/pacman.d/gnupg "/path/to/root/etc/pacman.d/"Update: As of June 2023, Chrome has officially added support for prefers-color-scheme as of this in version 114!
Paste the following into your terminal. You'll have to fully close the browser with pkill chrome each time you want Chrome to re-read the settings.
Also, use the following flags for full GPU acceleration:
| # Install docker or podman package on your distro (podman doesn't need a daemon like dockerd to work). All args are exactly same, just replace ``podman`` with ``docker`` in command if you want to. | |
| sudo pacman -S podman | |
| # Run an archlinux container with dbus and wayland sockets. | |
| sudo podman run \ | |
| --volume "$XDG_RUNTIME_DIR/$WAYLAND_DISPLAY":/tmp/wayland-0 \ | |
| --device /dev/dri \ | |
| --volume /run/user/1000/bus:/tmp/bus \ | |
| --rm -it archlinux /bin/bash |
There are some monitors, in my case Dell U2413, that report having YCbCr support when plugged in over HDMI. My AMD Radeon RX 570 Series video card sees this YCbCr pixel format and then prefers that over the RGB pixel format. The result is that fonts, graphics and other visuals are pixelated and not smooth in Ubuntu.
This actually is not just a Linux problem. A similar problem exists on macOS with the same monitor hooked up over HDMI. In fact an article by John Ruble on the Atomic Object blog called Fixing the External Monitor Color Problem with My 2018 MacBook Pro attempts to fix the exact same thing.
All of the articles I could find exploring this topic advocate patching the EDID for the monitor. Unfortunately the macOS solution would not work here. Luckily I found a Reddit post that covered how to get it working.
about:config settings to harden the Firefox browser. Privacy and performance enhancements.
You can use this settings in Tor browser too.
To change these settings type 'about:config' in the url bar.
Then search the setting you would like to change and modify the value. Some settings may break certain websites from functioning and
rendering normally. Some settings may also make firefox unstable.
Not all these changes are necessary and will be dependent upon your usage and hardware. Do some research on settings if you don't understand what they do. These settings are best combined with your standard privacy extensions
This example shows how to read options and positional arguments from a bash script (same principle can be applied for other shells).
# some global var we want to overwrite with options
force=false
help=false
log=info
ARGS=() ### this array holds any positional arguments, i.e., arguments not started with dash
while [ $# -gt 0 ]; do
