I'm very well aware it's a me problem, anime just isn't for me and it's super popular. I'm honestly surprised that a single person seemed to agree with me.

Yes, I do believe not having a pfp at all would be better (for disclosing CVEs or sharing a statement about disbanding the nixpkgs team). By all means use any pfp for normal forum …

I will tell on myself here but having an anime pfp evokes something childish for me and I do judge the user based on it. I expect to be judged similarly because I use the album art…

I don’t mind the internet being a weird place and enjoy the weirdness that exists in places like the NixOS community. I’m fully aware that the software I use has been built by extr…

In my mind Nix is too strong of an idea and once this community finally self-immolates, someone else is going to pick it up (maybe Determinate) and it'll continue on.

On the other hand, if you are a casual and want to dominate 99% races you enter at people's homes, pick Toadette (with Mr. Scooty). I don't think I've lost since 2019.

Ghostty has chosen to use that as the default and I feel like it's going to be the tipping point where people will assume $HOME/Library/Application Support is normal for CLI progra…

I think NIMBYism around the world is often "to keep out the poors", they don't have to be black. Slots in my theory that a lot of racism is just classism.

Somebody posted on HN before about an eruv index, that’s how I found my city had one as well[0]. I assume they got sort of popular around Jewish neighborhoods. [0] https://eruv-col…

Feeding stray cats and feeding birds are very different things, pretty much at odds with each other. If a stray cat is fed, birds have a more difficult time surviving.

I mean Open OnDemand has been built for that purpose and is deployed in like 2000 locations at this point. https://www.openondemand.org/

Not exactly just a single city, Adler&Sullivan designed buildings across the US.

It's really amusing when you tour something like Casa Loma[0] in Toronto (a gothic revival house) and then compare it to the Darwin Martin house[1] in Buffalo, which was built basi…

FLW almost always gets very generous interpretations of his intentions. I've been to 5 of his houses (including this one) and I've not heard anything negative about him on the tour…

The traditions are present in (probably) every European country. I think it's a combination of: * One public broadcasting channel 40-50 years ago * Someone decided to play a movie …

404media is heavily invested in the anti-datacenter reporting. I'm still subscribed to their RSS feed and like half the posts are datacenter focused (often with a misleading angle)…

There are templates for deploying NixOS but almost all that I've encountered are heavily opinionated and thus only kinda work for specific people (usually the ones that designed th…

I wonder how common this set-up is, but it's what I settled on as well (my flake contains 8 other NixOS hosts with common home-manager config). Sometimes I wish I could control mor…

> if you play any competitive games that come with anti-cheat features, then you won't be able to join in the fun. I'd say it's a majority of games that won't work if they require …

Could you publicly shame the distro that had that issue? Pretty sure it should be the default (on NixOS at least it is).

The man is by all accounts not a hedonist when it comes to food and drinks.

I settled on that after trying to be extra careful with TOTP. Now my split is 95% of passwords, TOTP codes and passkeys in 1Password, 5% (really important stuff like email) in an o…

1. Upgrade to Emacs version +1 2. Remove MELPA packages that are now part of Emacs 3. Go to step 1 when new version comes out

Pretty sure at $1,400 it's cheaper than most worthwhile eBikes on the market.
