I tried to check if this was true, but some guy was all like "sir, you're not supposed to be back here" and "please step away from the cash register" π

I'm more upset that the physical architecture of the entrance is not an arch or at least round as opposed to being a box. Lame as hell.

Exactly, I had a visceral reaction to this. How could you own an arch store and not feel completely offput by this? The apathy disgusts me.

At IKEA they put the whole kit with instructions in one box.
At the Arch Store there would be a bookshelf full of instruction sets and bins of loose parts that you'd have to collect after reading the instructions.
Which would be pretty cool cuz you could build just about anything.

Which is a decent idea tbh...

Then there's a bunch of people in the parking lot that are the most cantankerous, awkward, on the spectrum weirdos you'll ever meet. You can ask them questions... If you want more questions than real answers.
humanamerican 2 points 5 days ago
And a lot of unsolicited opinions about what you plan to do

NGL, I am tempted by some of those - but as a CachyOS user - would that just make me a poser?
Like, the equivalent of stolen valour? π

Go by some Avery labels and print out the logos. Then iron a couple onto nice cotton tees. Who'll know the difference?
Honestly, as a cheapskate, I've done this more than once. Only thing I can't do is embroider lol, so lil vinyl patch works. Just print a bunch at the same time to save labels π
BladeFederation 3 points 5 days ago
But!...did they open source the shirt designs?
unitedwithme 2 points 5 days ago
π€ fuck.. You know, idk. I would assume so since they're just existing logos, but you meaning the vector files?

Ay, St. Louis represent! It's a rare day when I see it online in the wild.
cupcakezealot 6 points 5 days ago
you have to package all your purchases yourself.

I don't even run arch but I'd be thrilled to stumble upon a Linux store this size. I now realize how much I want a stuffed penguin!
Sonotsugipaa 5 points 6 days ago
... people relate to this incident, right?
atomicbocks 2 points 6 days ago
I just use rEFInd because I never donβt have problems with grub.
Sonotsugipaa 3 points 6 days ago
I do don't have problems with grub because

I went into a store and couldn't find what I was looking for. I'm on Arch, btw.

No long pink, pale blue, and white stockings?

Half-expected a shoe store before closer inspection, although I think I have seen this before.
