   Use boring technology 🥱 · @henrikjernevad

   When I worked in CICS development and customers said the product was really boring, especially when installing new releases, we knew this was high praise.

   This is why I love arch and xmonad. Rarely is there anything unusual in an upgrade. Just run one command and reboot - job done. Zzzzz.

     @asynchronaut That's a failure at being boring.

     @clacke @underlap It is no longer reproducible with 6.6.8-rc1 either, so that's good. No clue what was going on there.
