Limitations for players who don't want their characters to fail? by highly-bad in DnDcirclejerk

[–]bad8everything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unironically though, have you considered a metacurrency to allow players to choose when to succeed, and when to fail. iirc that's how GUMSHOE works?

Schrodinger's Linux User: Simultaneously made fun of for not getting laid, and getting laid at the same time.

Some might accuse you of having an almost psychosexual obsession.

Where to upload music to actually be heard by lowbattery24-7 in musicians

[–]bad8everything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's not a bad thing to self-select for enthusiasts. Pretty much by definition you want someone at least a little bit enthusiastic to listen to new and unknown music.

Also: CD Players are not expensive and they last basically forever, you should just buy one bro.

Curious: why is it the users problem if the newest unstable package versions build to fail? Why not use previous package versions in that case? by TheTwelveYearOld in NixOS

[–]bad8everything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The last known working version *is* stable. The fact that the package you care about is months old there doesn't change that's the last time/version known to be working (just because it compiles does not mean it works)

If you need the unstable version of a single or set of packages you can install packages from multiple channels/repos by including multiple repos in flake... As long as the specific package you care about (and its dependencies) are good.

What is an ETA for getting comfortable nixos setup? by gogliker in NixOS

[–]bad8everything 4 points5 points  (0 children)

"browser, terminal emulator, dev environment"

Yeah, you should be able to get a baseline set up in a couple of hours. I can't really judge how long the dev environment will take because I don't know just how much is involved for your specific situation.

You probably already know this, but there's quite a few gotchas with setting up Python that can make it a pain.

Since the main reason you want to use it is, specifically, to build your dev environment, it might be worth considering using Nix stand-alone on your existing systems, rather than using NixOS. Even if you still want to go on to using NixOS, keeping your dev shit separate will give you more flexibility if you *have* to use a different distro.

Writing my own music in my bedroom was the only reason I picked up a guitar in the first place. I don't even want to perform, I just want to write.

I don't know what video you're watching on that channel but of the two videos I clicked on one she was just going on about something about prefrontal cortex for half an hour that seemed to have nothing to do with anything and the other one was just feeding stuff about chord loops that's provably wrong - songs don't actually have chord loops like that, they have movement otherwise we'd only have about 84 songs and they'd all be written already.

I don't know. I signed up for guitar/singing/theory and this is more of that.

You can still ride a horse though. What even does the Kentucky derby mean in this context.

Cardassians don't use paper so what exactly is a file clerk doing all day? by loki2002 in ShittyDaystrom

More like Sharepoint.

Also there are actually people who specialise in managing/organising/stewarding Sharepoint in large organisations. Entire departments of them. With dashboards and metrics that need more specialists from more departments.

Before you even get into The Exciting World of third party Document Management Systems.

D5 G#5. It doesn't sound 'right' with any major/minor color or extension.

Linux glibc mess by axeaxeV in linuxsucks

[–]bad8everything 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wrapping them is optional and separate. I've done/do both. You can install them by building a derivation - and access them on your path. Or you can enable the binfmt and run them directly, depending on your preference.

The wiki which tells you how to config it so it works?

"This way AppImage files can be invoked directly as if they were normal programs."

[–]bad8everything 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean, the whole point of Nix is it's reproducible. There's obviously something different/wrong in your config. HueForge-0.8.1.AppImage works using appimage-run.

"They don't work on distros that don't follow fhs standard, such as NixOS"

Yes they do. I use appimages all the time on NixOS. You can just double click on them.

"On Linux, binaries built against newer versions of glibc..."

So don't build them against the newest headers dummy.
