If you need a one liner to protect against copy.fail on Arch until you can run pacman -Syy; pacman -Syu; reboot, this one worked for us: sudo sh -c 'echo "install algif_aead /bin/false" > /etc/modprobe.d/disable-algif-aead.conf && rmmod algif_aead 2>/dev/null || true'
copy.fail
Copy Fail — 732 Bytes to Root
CVE-2026-31431. 100% Reliable Linux LPE — no race, no per-distro offsets, page-cache write that bypasses on-disk file-integrity tools and crosses containers. Found by Xint Code.

If you haven't updated Arch in the last 100 days and you are running into a dependency conflict with the "rest" package when you attempt to run pacman -Syy and pacman -Syu the solution in many cases is simply: "pacman -R rest" It is worth reading bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.ph... to understand why.

Re-install all your current packages, overwriting any corrupt or zero length files: pacman -S --overwrite '*' $(pacman -Qq) A crash in the middle of a pacman -Syu left our system in a bad state. Booted from the latest ISO, copied the libs pacman needed, chrooted and ran that command to fix things

My husband is an artist who makes orreries (clockwork planetary models) out of metal and glass. When I was struggling to finish my novel, he made me a deal: if I finished the book, he'd make me an orrery based on the world of my novel. It's freaking BEAUTIFUL.
Photo of an orrery made of hand-etched brass gears, a polished wooden base, and hand-blown glass planets.
