I own lots of content, because I created it myself.

I don’t do it for the money. I do it because I like doing it.

Friggin’ finally! I’ll finally be able to remove some of those alternative chat apps I don’t really like.

Only in Europe. For the rest of us, they will make sure to leave in all the enshittification that Makes Windows Worse Again.

I can’t leave fully because job, but I can sure as hell lock them inside a VM.

Microsoft is the abusive partner wondering how many times they have to hit you to make you love them.

My deal-vulture in-laws will love this. I just hope low-cost still pays for aircraft maintenance and safety.

The reaction is funny too, because in my experience comparing communities of various distros, Fedora’s community is among the the most inviting and professionally-behaving of them.

Personally, I am not running Fedora at the moment, but probably will when my Framework 16 arrives, since Fedora is officially supported on it. And to be honest, I find that I am making the same choices with Arch as Fedora would have made for me (aside from bootloader), so I feel that I’m wasting a bit of effort.

If paper is good enough for wiping the shit from my hands, it’s good enough for wiping the shit from my ass.

Enjoying it, and time.

I hope Air Canada doesn’t fly Air Canada on the trip.

Makes sense. You need geological time scales to describe how old that BlackBerry is that the person is holding.

Guaranteed not to drive you crazy.

These comments really speak to me as someone who is comfortable in Arch but mildly interested in NixOS. The concept seems great, and it seems to work very smoothly when it works. Yet there are always these war stories where people have had to fight the system, to debug some misbehaving hack that is nonetheless required to smash a particular package into the NixOS mould. It is discouraging. The idea I get is that NixOS involves more time doing OS curation chores than does Arch, which already hits the limit of my willingness.

Flakes are another issue. The pre-flakes way seems to be de-facto deprecated, yet the new, flaky way is experimental. I don’t want to waste time learning a doomed paradigm, and I don’t want to depend on anything experimental.

For me, configuration files in git plus btrfs snapshots is just so straightforward. I want to see NixOS as a better way, but I can’t.

My elderly relative who uses eye drops also has regular eye infections. I’ve told her primary caregivers to watch out and maybe stop putting drops in eyes if they can avoid it.

I’m a happy Kagi convert, but yeah, this post is indistinguishable from an ad. A disclaimer and perhaps a rationale for posting would have helped.

They recently made that level unlimited. That’s when I became a customer. Before that, I agree, not worth it.
