Yes

Sounds like you haven’t done it in a while. It has calamares installer now.

I haven’t tried it out yet for some reason, but I’d start here https://youtu.be/qlfm3MEbqYA

Going to be interesting to see fox news shift gears into full-time demonization of her.

I don’t see this word in the article. I’m guessing OP changed the title or perhaps CNN did after the fact. Nothing surprises me anymore.

I once went for lower CAS timing 2x 128MB ram sticks (256 MB) instead of 2x 256s with slower speeds because I thought 512MB was insane overkill. Realized how wrong I was when trying to play Star Wars galaxies mmorpg when a lot of people were on the screen it started swapping to disk. Look up the specs for an IBM Aptiva, first computer my parents bought, and you’ll understand how 512MB can seem like a lot.

Now my current computer has 64 GB (most gaming computers go for 32GB) at the time I built it. My workstation at work has 128GB which really isn’t even enough for some workloads we have that use a lot of in-memory cache… And large servers can have multiple TB of RAM. My mind has been blown multiple times.

I’m pretty convinced from watching every season of alone that catabolysis was likely the main factor rather than eating berries.

Why does “Why did you switch from*” have different options for each distro? Thought it was funny only NixOS had “toxic people” option. Guessing due to recent drama.

Wake me up when nixpkgs issues decline significantly from 5k+ due to AI.

I share your concern about over dependence, but for different reasons.

There’s a lot of metadata Github has that’s not backed up in the git repo. For example. pull requests, issues, projects, milestones, wikis etc.

There appears to be third party tools that can back this metadata up using Githubs API. I wonder if anyone bothered. Kinda doubt it.

After the Google cloud UniSuper incident, I think it’s clear that no org is immune from accidentally deleting everything.

which somehow belong to Microsoft and is not good for privacy.

It’s hard for me to guess exactly what your concern is. There’s nothing stopping you from using an anonymous account on Github to contribute. Or just connecting to it via Tor / VPN.

If its mostly about sticking to principles, then you might like https://guix.gnu.org/ more.

There’s also these are projects you could contribute to:

• https://tvl.fyi/ Tvix rewrite of cppnix in rust
• https://lix.systems/ recent cppnix fork
• auxolotl.org An alternative to the Nix ecosystem (in the works)

I think they’re all using forgejo or some FOSS git forge. At least I think aux is still planning moving to forgejo. However, I’m not aware of anyone still planning to fork nixpkgs.

• previous nixpkgs mirror discussion: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/what-would-a-nixpkgs-mirror-look-like/16293

Weird. My brain didn’t even notice the blender until after I watched the video.

Most of the survey was about AI it seemed.

When you do buy one make sure it is one that could be legally sold in the EU so you can get one that lasts.

I was going to call BS, but I set my VPN to Dublin, Ireland and started shopping there using google maps.

Some places I looked:

https://www.appliancesdelivered.ie/

https://www.miele.ie/e/refrigeration-appliances-1022129-c

Lot of interesting brands I ran across:

BEKO
BOSCH
CANDY
HOOVER
HOTPOINT
INDESIT
LIEBHERR
MIELE
NORDMENDE
NORKO
POWERPOINT
SIEMENS
TCL
WHIRLPOOL

Really surprising to my that a Bosch / Miele can be had for less than $1000. In the US, it’s hard to find anything less than $3k in those brands. I have seen some places around here sell Beko, but only in white.
