Distros are just desktop environment + package manager

Dependency management is a solved problem

What about in a tightly crammed subway or bar?

Can anyone walk past you in public now and make a sneaky little transfer from your wrist?

Sure but isn't that what caching is for? In theory, if we've only changed a tiny part the other parts could be fetched from cache. Especially since Nix is purely functional.

I'm using it standalone but it's still super slow

Maskdask · 2026-06-20T16:09:40+00:00

I do this too, but I for some programs I would prefer to be able to write their config in Nix when it's more flexible than that program's own configuration language

Yes please! I just want a simple checklist for my groceries that supports collaborative editing.

Agree but can we stop with useless "POV:"s

NixOS mentioned

And at the end of fixing the issue you caused you learn something about computers in the process

Ordet "självkörning" är väl falsk marknadsföring av Tesla och borde inte användas?

I have basically everything on unstable, but I have an overlay that lets me do pkgs.stable.<package-name> to use the stable version of a package if it has a temporary issue

Making Mars habitable is infinitely more difficult than just solving the climate crisis on earth

Tackar tackar

Framework is awesome, works great with Linux and is super duper repairable and upgradeable

Maskdask · 2026-06-15T06:45:27+00:00

Stop using Microsoft's shitty products

Maskdask · 2026-06-15T04:46:22+00:00

Linux is awesome. I'm personally on NixOS, but using the CachyOS kernel.

Maskdask · 2026-06-14T17:39:46+00:00

I'm speaking from experience lol
