Me as a kid: “how could they let that happen?”
Me now: “… ah …”


Obviously never rely on a single source before buying something, but this isn’t news. See the other dude’s comment https://lemmy.world/comment/20879776


I’m still running a 480 that doubles as a space heater (I’m not even joking; I increase the load based on ambient temps during winter)

Oh, it’s very impressive, but I still want to drop it into a trash compactor though.


To address some negatives:
The dot files could be generated from your nix configuration (given that they are, and usually just symlinked). This way you still keep one source of truth. Only catch is any hardcoded nix store paths from pkg stringification. Also not sure if there’s an easy way to do this, besides maybe automating some way of grabbing them from your nix build. (alternatively, keep your dot files and just have nix yoink them)
The “patch for nix” is a serious downside, admittedly. VMs and containers can get you a lot of milage, but properly nixifying things can hurt and be a big time investment.
Dev shells and missing deps is the same. Updating deps is usually okay but “repackage everything” starts to feel bad. But you aren’t limited to nixpkgs for deps; you can pull in other managers (conan, vc, etc) for the project. Issues may arise if packages need or expect FHS / system stuff, then you’re back to patching and pain.
The benefit is that when it’s done, it’s done; other than maintenance / upgrades. Reproducibility is like automation: the time and effort you put in, and the tools you use, determine the quality of the result. Similarly, the costs can quickly outpace the benefits.. Requires careful allocation and wise judgement.
Nix is a silver bullet, but silver is expensive and not everyone is hunting werewolves.


I don’t understand… How would that make them suffer?

“Recall ive told you, – i have met some very bad people , none as bad as trump. not one decent cell in his body… so yes- dangerous.”

“These emails prove absolutely nothing, other than the fact that President Trump did nothing wrong,” White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said.
… Uhhuh …


Something to keep in mind about not using browser integrations is that you can fall victim to simple keyloggers and clipboard stealers. But using an extension can also be a weakpoint if it autopopulates incorrectly or on a compromised site; but that’s far less common.
But, dear readers, don’t let that dissuade you: even a text file in a veracrypt volume is better than “PurpleElephant1994”


Well the sentiment isn’t wrong… Many factors have built up leading to and enabling this point in time, many of which can easily be blamed on opposition ineptitude or complicity.


I dailydrive a heavily configured MPV and I’ve got a lot of complaints about jellyfin, but this is a no-go for sharing for the vast majority of people.


Edit the config to unbind all defaults, and define your own keybinds as you need them, using what’s most intuitive for you. Helps building memory.
Or you can just use one if the plethora of guis…


Obviously a very healthy and stable relationship


I’d sooner take a sledge hammer to it


Leaving an abusive relationship can hurt, but it hurts less than the abuse. Good riddance.


[…] would ban a wide variety of adult content online, [… including] any depiction of transgender people.
Obviously will fail. Not because it blatantly violates the first amendment, or because banning VPNs is absurd: but because it would hinder republicans from secretly jerking it to femboys.


I use librewolf via nix home-manager to declaratively configure preferences, plugins, engines, bookmarks, and policy settings. My librewolf configuration module is my largest config file by far… At least I don’t need to reapply it by hand anymore, but I really wish Firefox didn’t suck so much.
Here’s hoping ladybird is a success.
Damn entitled people, wanting to live within 4 hours of where they work…
