Out of curiosity: Which operating system(s) can you shutdown while the kernel is being overwritten? I wouldn't imagine that as a limitation of Arch Linux specifically.

Unpopular Opinion:

I think Tucker Carlson is a piece-of shit and a coward. That said, there is no contadiction in someone hating the bravest person they know.

The best way you can help fight climate change is to not have children.

Any alien species that is aware of our satellites is so technically superior to us they wouldn't bother. The James Webb Telecope is our best, but we still aren't certain we've named all the planets in our own solar system.

I enjoy having my mind changed by well-written, well-reasoned posts from people who are informed. Thank you.

Government needs to leverage mobile technology better so people can wait somewhere besides a fucking waiting room. I wouldn't give a shit if I had to wait 20 hours if I could wait at my house.

Also, the whole idea that I either wait 3 weeks to see a doctor or go to the emergency room is ridiculous. There needs to be a step in between.

Also, People need to fucking chill and stop expecting health care at fast food speed.

Don't let the Pigeon drive the fucking bus.

I know you've read the warning thousands of times, but the Pigeon could have a mouse, and he is sneaky as fuck, so... you know what? Fuck this shit man. I'm not being paid to be some bus station security guard. Fuck you bus driver man. Hey Pigeon, I say you should live your dream. I'm not stopping you. Go drive the fuck out of that bus. Some rando bus driver telling my kid to do his job for him? Fuck that. Don't let people take advantage of you - that's what we should be telling our kids. This world is going to hell.

Dune, but both are excellent.

Here are some of my subjective rankings:

Foundation is the front runner of "Epic" sci-fi, by far. It's relatively easy to follow. Some of the individual stories are memorable, and a few are less memorable when compared to the others. Foundation is my favourite sci-fi series of all time.

Dune is epic when compared to any series apart from Foundation. The earlier books are more memorable, but the later books are still excellent. I prefer the more nuanced political plots in Dune compared to Foundation.

Hyperion is more about some top-tier stories that spill over in to epicness. Some of these stories are more memorable to me than the individual stories in Foundation and Dune. Political intrigue is developed later and isn't as central to the overall plots.

Whichever you pick you win.
