1 - popsci headlines about food are always bogus

2 - skimming through the article, it suggests that the Vit B in vinegar is the suspected cause

3 - substituting vinegar for antidepressants (which the article does not state, but seems to ~~elude~~ allude to) is a bad idea

Use a towel

Just make sure it's not damp, or the resulting steam will burn you

It’s not a permanent one and it works for the time being, can’t see the reason for the downvotes honestly.

It's just a bad idea in general. A better option would be to patch the binary to use 15. They both have the issue of forcing paru to work with a library it wasn't explicitly designed for, but symlinking (or copying) 15 to 14 forces the hack to be "system wide" instead of restricted to a single binary

as well, your solution is "temporary" only if you remember to fix it, vs patching which is (by default) overwritten the next time paru is updated

it "works", but it's not something i'd recommend someone else do

You can either patch the binary

sudo patchelf --replace-needed libalpm.so.14 libalpm.so.15 "$(which paru)"

Or install paru-git

sudo pacman -S --needed base-devel
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/paru-git.git
cd paru-git
makepkg -si

Or do both, patch the binary, then use it to install paru-git (which is what i did)

I love arch, but I'm also a pedantic computer nut

It's not for everyone

The leading theory is that scooping the litter box throws the smell of feces into the air, which might attract predators (which is the reason they bury their poop, to hide the smell)

Since they think you're doing something dangerous, they want to keep watch for predators

Oh, so that's what all of you are talking about.

I still don't really see what all the fuss is about

I've done this by accident a few times while reading a really good book

The following day sucks big time, especially if you have to go to work

it's a false color image

it's too tiny to take a picture of using a traditional telescope, so instead, they use multiple telescopes around the Earth, and piecemeal that data together. Which means they have to reconstruct the missing details (it's not made up, it's more like playing "connect the dots" with tons of math)

the final image is a composite of 3 different grayscale images, taken at different wavelengths of light.

The resulting black and white images are given different colors, then blended together (which is pretty similar to how cameras take images, they just map the grayscale images to colors we can see with our eyes)
