Troll.

Yeaaaaah. And in the end, no-one can be bothered to read the slop, and everything ships broken.

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

Are you sure you aren’t either applying nixpkgs overlays, or following master instead of nixos-unstable? I’ve not really experienced anything like you’ve described.

Anyways - I’ve additionally built my own cache server, which builds every output of my flake every time I push to main. System updates are ONLY downloads now. Also allowed all of my low-powered VMs to auto-update, since they’ll never need to build anything at all.

Yeah. It’s fantastic. Only thing I wish for is federation, and better project boards, but oh well.

For my “important” stuff, I still push-mirror to Github though… Should probably change that to Codeberg.

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…

They are also machine-washable.

Source: I have had one of these for approx. 10 years, it’s done probably 100 wash cycles.

I heard about star citizen when I was a teen, and it looked soooo cool. Unfortunately my PC was not strong enough. So I saved up for months to buy a PC specifically to play Star Citizen. Finally, I had all the upgrades I needed for the PC. Started excitedly pouring over Roberts Space Industries to pick my ship. Noticed the pricing model was… Off. In fact, this felt like a scam. Hold on, there’s no real game I could actually play? Decided to hold off until something released I could play, ideally with friends, and ideally via a less obfuscated pricing model.

Anyways, I’ve checked in with SC about once a year since. I’m about to begin the process to finance a house with my girlfriend of 9 years. Exciting times ahead.

I’m pretty sire SC won’t have released anything close to what was promised in 2012 by the time I retire, MUCH less anything promised since.

(Btw I was not a smart teen. I fell for lots of things and lost money to scams and stupid games. I got lucky with SC, because in an alternate universe, I might also be stuck in sunk cost fallacy.)

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?

Not really… At least not generally. The privacy increase from switching from Android to proper Linux is, to me at least, more important than loosing a locked bootloader.

That’s just my threat model. I know that Google & Co are extracting as much info about me as humanly possible, and I have no reason to believe that I am being targeted by someone with the capability to exploit the unlocked bootloader.

Same for my PC btw - secure boot is disabled because it’s not worth the hassle. Again. In my threat model.

(But I would wager that this goes for a lot of users.)

Quick! Get this person a series A, B and C funding!

Pretty sure the Bootloader in unlockable (at least they were in the past?) and support(ed) mainline Linux kernel for an actual Linux mobile OS.

Idk, to me that sounds way better than staying on a google device.
