There's a general "Linux" one and a "SysAdmin" one. But yeah, no specific Arch one.
Also, there's a version of that subreddit using GPT-2, if you're interested, seems to provide way cooler results compared to the one you linked which uses Markov Chains.

Work lunches, weddings, and so forth are a control for that. My experience is you always know who the vegans are in advance.
Although I have learned from that that you need to hover around the vegan dishes to stop the non-vegans from eating it all before the vegans get to it, or order far more than should be needed.
Good food is good food. Some good food happens to be vegan. It isn't hugely "special" especially these days, when Indian food is reasonably popular; this, incidentally, debunks the notion that vegans all eat weird concoctions of soy meant to resemble meat. I'm sure some do, but a curry which happens to contain no animal products is much more appealing.
They use a fair bit of ghee don't they? I went from memory but Wikipedia seems to agree with that.
"Ghee is widely used in South Indian cuisine for tempering curries, in preparation of rice dishes and sweets. South Indians have a habit of adding ghee to their rice before eating it with pickles and curries. South Indians are one of the biggest consumers of ghee."
While everything tastes better with ghee, you can cook a lot of Indian food using plant-based oils. I use sunflower oil for a lot of dishes, but you can also use vegetable oil, olive oil, or mustard oil.
With a bit of effort, you can eliminate animal products from most vegetarian Indian food. It will taste different, but not too much.
I don't think anyways arguing that oil isn't a replacement for butter. I think we're curious about the expectation. Can we expect most Indian restaurants or caterers to use oils instead of ghee? Do you need to ask them if they use ghee?
Fancy Indian restaurants in the West as well as back here are almost certainly using ghee. Cheaper places might use vanaspati (a ghee substitute made with palm oil) or oil. In general, though, you can never tell for sure unless you're doing the cooking yourself.
I really do agree with you, but butter and dairy are pretty ubiquitously used in American cooking, it's actually really difficult to eat at restaurants that don't use butter on things that would definitely be vegan otherwise.
>when Indian food is reasonably popular
I'm willing to bet that a lot Americans who try to make Indian food at home will use butter instead of oils for their pans. Also, the most popular Indian dishes that don't have meat, namely * Paneer, is cheese.
But yes, if I wanted to avoid animal products, I would definitely try the Indian place. They definitely have at least thought about whether or not animal products have gone into their food, while usually the average American isn't really sure of the ingredients to their foods.

Rice and beans, a complete meal nutritionally and easy to make interesting!
But to address the point of GP's post:
You really do need to hover over dietarily restricted food. It's really sad when you order 1 GF dish and everyone wants to try it, leaving the one person with an allergy to drink soda. Someone needs to be there saying: "there's a limited amount of this food for people with dietary restrictions. If you don't have that dietary restriction, please move on. There's plenty of food for you."

Even AI vegans reinforcing stereotypes of being overly-forthcoming.
