Seeing just how well ansible works to set up Arch is kinda scary, i wrote my playbook almost a year ago and it still works perfectly (after i renamed some packages)

And this is not even how you are *supposed* to use ansible, i am kinda abusing the system by only running it locally...

This is just reinforcing my Bash-hating bias even more: bash scripts are a terrible solution to 99% of problems, and the language is frankly shit.

Back to Ansible.
The fact that operations are idempotent is *such* a game changer, too: I can just write some extra roles to automate other stuff i can never remember, like setting up those darned wine/Lutris dependencies
