i kinda wish that some people who post security vulns stop being so vague and cherry-picky sometimes, like you could have written in your post that it only affects windows and it affects only a certain range of versions of the program. would have clearned things up better imo. interesting to know, though.

was too incompetent to install arch one time so i used archinstaller and created a separate home partition. couple years later that root partiton's close to filled up, and i do an update after deleting come programs to free up space. then some weird text appeaerrs in terminal, and so i try to update again (this time specifically wine), says loads of files already exist in filesystem. i think "this is weird", so i restart.

what instantly gets my attention is this text greeting me on boot

loading Linux linux... error: file '/vmlinuz-linux' not found. Loading initial ramdisk... error: you need to load the kernel first.

Press any key to continue.

yup, i just borked my install, so i hastily whipped out an outdated arch USB, updated it using a spare laptop and am now on a reinstall (luckily i keep the important files on a separate drive, so not all is lost). extra insult to injury was that my previous install had my drive LUKS encrypted, so i couldn't evne get in there to possibly backup anything if i tried lol. but it's feels refreshing starting anew though.

you can also search for the song on a search engine and just type deezer at the end of it, then get the link that way.
