Freeze again and again - Update Notifier?

I always disable and remove the update notifier that comes with EndeavourOS.

To me, the very concept of an update notifier on Arch seems utterly absurd. Unless you’ve just updated, there are always updates available. It’s like having a notifier that tells you that water is wet.

That said, as much as I dislike update notifiers, I find it very unlikely that this is what is causing your computer to freeze.

In any case, never reboot or shut down your computer by cutting power to it as this can cause filesystem corruption. Instead, enable the magic SysRq key and use that to Reboot Even If System Utterly Broken.
