You missed the part where Devuan needed to be reinstalled after 38 minutes of installing.

Because you somehow managed to skip adding any repo that you could use to install from the internet? OK, retard

Wrong, but by all means, speculate more. Just shows how witless you are, how desperate for a W. I've got the whole 38 minute install video sitting right here.
Edit: Attached. By all means, tell me what I did wrong. (Spoiler: I said "Yes" to "Scan extra installation media?" once, oops. It told me it had registered it already. Network was up, worked fine, installer downloaded from it.) It's not like I haven't installed Debian a bajillion times, using it continuously since 2007 and installed Armbian-x64 on my laptop like a month ago.

I've had my arch et al install for like 5 years at this point. If I had debian et al I would've been forced to reinstall for new release once or twice already. Just sayin'

So, it ejected the CD so you could put a different CD in, just put it back in. For a USB stick it might have found it again if you unplugged and replugged it, or not, just go to the command line and remount it. Probably a 15 year old bug opened in some repo saying "don't do this"
Why would you have to reinstall?
It's very easy, https://www.debian.org/releases/stable/amd64/release-notes/ch-upgrading.en.html it's only like 20 pages of instructions.
And you do typically get 5 years if you switch to LTS.
Personally I just ignore upgrades until there's a good reason. Like Octoprint dropping support for Python 3.8.

Uh, asckually sweaty I said "debian et al" and was in part referring to MX linux
Maybe if they spent more time on an upgrade path and less time botting their distro watch rank this wouldn't be the case.

Nope. There was no eject. You can see that the iso is still mounted in the console at 36:56. I fucked around in the console for a while trying to see if I could do something that would make the installer finish, but no.

How the fuck did you even find this? This guy literally barely meets the qualification of "dozens" of subscribers with 26. How or why did Enrico even end up doing this interview (he says he's been completely swamped since he forked Xorg)? Truly bizarre.
So I listened to this and honestly between Enrico's bad mic and his accent it really feels like der Furher is talking about FOSS from the 1930s. He even jokes about writing a book and says it might be time to move into management. Jokes aside it was interesting and it sounds like Enrico is the one sane man in FOSS development (the host didn't add much). Also why is a german named Enrico?

There are quite a few ways to bridge Discord with an IRC client, that work, but they are all really clunky.

This is how it looks to install xlibre on artix. You don't even need to add a special repo. I realized I hadn't done it yet. Video is sped up by dropping duplicate-ish frames. I didn't crop, so you get my seconds-clock in the top-right so you can see how long things take. Left three numbers in my slstatus are various temperatures if you're curious. Bonus features include me forgetting how to pacman and some other miscellaneous fuckups/features. Enjoy.

Turns out there's a problem with the version of Xlibre on the AUR as it's created by a third party that is negligent to the point of sabotage. They're trying to gain control of the repository but it seems to be difficult to find the person and get them to give up the keys
