never do updates on a Friday.
Never update unless something is broken.
BTW, I use Arch.
If it was Arch you'd update once every 15 minutes whether anything's broken or not.
I use Tumbleweed, so I only get updates once/day, twice if something explodes. I used to use Arch, so my update cycle has lengthened from 1-2x/day to 1-2x/week, which is so much better.
gets two update notifications
Ah, must be explosion Wednesday
I really like the tumbleweed method, seems like the best compromise between arch and debian style updates.
I think a lot of what (open)SUSE does is pretty solid. For example, microOS is a fantastic compromise between a stable base and a rolling userspace, and I think a lot of people would do well to switch to it from Leap. I currently use Leap for my NAS, but I do plan to switch to microOS.
