    I get that when I forget to update a Ubuntu VM for a week.

            Execute order

            Sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt auto remove -y

            Needs a more concise order name…

              cd ~
nano .bash_aliases

              At the end of the file

              alias executeOrder="sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt auto remove -y"

              Ctrl+X
              Y
              Enter.

              source .bash_aliases

              There. Now it’s executeOrder

              Edit : .bash_alias(es?) should be in the home folder. Switch to it with cd ~

              There’s a flag for upgrade that will do an update as well. I don’t have it memorized, but you don’t need to “update and upgrade” anymore.

              Tiny nits:

              1. apt dist-upgrade is more potentially destructive.
              2. It’s apt autoremove (no spaces)

              Otherwise, I do this every morning on my work machine. It’s very satisfying to have updates.

          So much hassle just for routine update. Windows seems more stable in comparison.

            windows just completely screwed up another update…it’s like, what, the 5th or so this year alone? so almost every month or so they screw up real big.

            including some that bricked systems completely…

            at least atomic distros let you roll back without hassle…
