Yeah. Honestly it might be a good idea to start a community project that’s a “nix2everyDistro”, and then go around and open PRs on FOSS projects to wire their project up to build in nix + output “every distro”

Yes

?

Where did they out the evidently much larger amounts of housing/building demolition rubble?

I kinda wish we could federate jellyfin instances. Just manually, with friends I trust. Would instantly expand everyone’s catalogue.

How about only apply to non-FOSS software? Most hobby projects used not just by the author altend to be FOSS, and businesses can decide to go FOSS, making their software independently auditable by anyone, or go through certification.

I guess there’s a danger of a campaign to re-brand FOSS as “uncertified” then…

No, absolutely with you on this! I didn’t mean that I don’t understand because you can simply change the string (because agreed, most people don’t know and can’t be expected to know about this).

What I meant is: in 20 years of FF usage, I have come across ~5-10 broken sites (legitimate or UA, doesn’t matter).

So I can’t understand when people say they can’t use FF because it breaks so many sites.

So I have little understanding when people say they can’t use Firefox because pages break.

goes to prove the depths of the lack of technical illiteracy that the western world has been shepherded into.

Just to be clear: I don’t mean that I expect most people to know about user agent strings. I just cannot confirm the “so many sites don’t work!” complaints, flat out

Same here. I also can count on one hand the occasions where a site was broken in FF but worked in Chromium. And for a majority of those, that was intentional (aka no actual issue, switchtig the user-agent “fixed” the site). So I have little understanding when people say they can’t use Firefox because pages break.

Worse than just taxing them properly.

Most correct answer possible.

No :(

nixos-rebuild switch

Is there actual REQUIRED upkeep though or could you say fuck it, and go ashore with a tent, row boat and the freshwater and food required for a week?

OK I’m curious. Would I be allowed:

• my blood glucose monitor? (It’s dead weight without a device reading it, but it does have a battery and it’s glued to/pricked into my arm)
• a stand-alone device reading values from it? (Think esp32 with a shitty 1.4" display)
• since I don’t actually own that, my phone for the sole purpose of reading my blood glucose?

Yeah, that’s my point. I never got around to putting things in Debian repos or the AUR because shit seemed unnecessarily complicated. Now on NixOS, I happily help maintain a bunch of packages and modules. Because the packaging, build system, and OS are just sane, stable, and a joy to work with!

Sorry, but calling the dumping ground for obsolete and outdated packages an “OS” goes a little too far in my opinion.

“Smaller userbase yet more stable and more and better maintained packages” is not the insult you thought it was, I’m afraid…

(/s, just in case, hope this is all still in good fun!)

I don’t how hoch you managed to accidentally type “Debian” while you were obviously trying to type NixOS.

The comments in here are confusing. To state it plainly:

Turing machines have nothing to do with the Turing test. They’re two completely different things/concepts, just named after the same guy.
