2 days agoYes and switch often caused issues which is why I only use it for very small changes after I just did an update (where a nix-shell might also just work)
Btw very funny how Guix is basically a 1:1 nix clone but in Libre

nixos-rebuild switchI mostly use
nixos-rebuild bootwhich is waay more stable
NixOS has something similar but very unstable. So exciting to see new approaches!
Recompile C projects with Zig
BTRFS is a fucking must. Tried resizing a EXT4 partition for a while and failed, no idea why
I also use Bottles with ProtonPlus on NixOS. Bazzite has better integration for crazy stuff too, and a lot is running with full privileges unlike Flatpak.
Just look at their features, they really add a ton. The goal is to become less and less ofc, but Steam will stay proprietary so that will always be a huge change to regular (or atomic) Fedora.

So yeah it is bloated and less secure too, but “just works”

Well codes are very simplified and not able to depict the extent of all messages

HDDs make more sense I suppose
11·18 days agoWindows performance doesnt say shite
Intel Arc if you get one
To be a normal DE that works like all other platforms and desktop (apart from macOS maybe, idk, likely also has support)
KDE also uses CSD if apps support it, but if not, apps dont break for no reason
Very nice!
There are also rust rewrites for git, tor etc.
Keyboard layout is a question of the desktop environment
All distros and environments should support the same amount of regular layouts. A difference is how you switch between them. KDE allows me to use CAPSLOCK to switch, GNOME does not allow that so I use Alt+A.
If you are talking about complex input methods like I guess korean uses, these will use a separate program. These will exist on all big distros but I never tried them.
This will likely exist on all distros you might encounter. They should all have a website to search for packages, which you can use before installing
For example
That depends on your preferences
Or that code is not cleaned up
Knowing codebases, literally always it is simply messy code they dont want judged
Nix, portage?

One of these should work
Sounds like tmpfs would be more reliable than streaming data directly?
