This is so true. It’s been good enough for me for so many years at this point, and yet it just keeps getting better. The whole experience is so much nicer now than it was years ago, which was better than years before that, etc.

(That said, better hardware also helps a lot.)

I can live with that, although I’ll also note that the sample size is biased.

Auto-reminder that StatCounter is garbage and these articles are almost always about statistical noise, not actual behavioural change.

I was pretty excited to try Bazaar, but UX-wise I feel like GNOME-software is way less overwhelming and thus easier to use - even though it’s not great. And startup speed for Bazaar is still pretty slow, even though IIRC speed was supposed to be one of its selling points.

Still great to see people to try to innovate, and it’s still pretty young, so definitely something to keep an eye on. But I was overhyped.

Doesn’t the same hold for distributions repackaging software? Surely most developers don’t maintain their own Debian packages, Fedora rpms, Arch whatever-their-name-is’s, etc?

Ha, if that’s your first association, I think that might say more about you than about the phone :P

(Which is not a bad thing.)

Alyssa is so incredibly impressive. I don’t usually particularly suffer from impostor syndrome, but I wouldn’t even dream of being able to accomplish what she has.

As usual with StatCounter: crappy data.

Wow, even South Park? When does South Park ever give someone a jab! :P

Haha, too bad I didn’t listen to Madonna.

Ah OK, just found

Napster was the original peer-to-peer platform and drew heat from the recording industry. Artists like Dr. Dre, Eminem, Metallica, and plenty more spoke out against the platform.

(I do know Napster, but didn’t know they had spoken out against it. Ah well.)

Wait, what did Metallica, Dre and Eminem do?

From the release notes:

one of the last breaking changes we want to make before reaching the stable release milestone

So you’ll probably want to wait until they do a stable release.

No browser uses a different engine yet (presumably because Apple only allows them to offer this in the EU).

Hmm yeah, I guess the question is: is it overly complex if I do want to store my backup of my Nix config online, version-controlled, preferably publicly?

That’s neat!

Is that just because your four servers aren’t used for anything that need a secret? e.g. I wanted to put my wifi password in there, and the password for my user account.

How do you access the private Git repo then? Don’t you need a secret to access it?

Copy one file over and it’s set up for you.

So, I’ve only played around with NixOS on a Raspberry Pi, but… Don’t people usually split their config up in multiple files, and then store than in a Git repository?

The process then still is: check out that Git repository, except there’s another step: copy over your private key so that you can decrypt your secrets.

Is that correct? Or did I make things needlessly complex for myself?
