I also have a slimfold micro that I’ve been using so long I don’t remember how old it is.

Probably not directly helpful, but Nix packages for Chromium and Electron apps are set up so that you can switch to native Wayland mode globally by setting an environment variable, NIXOS_OZONE_WL=1

I don’t know of any global setting that isn’t distro-specific.

This seems like the right answer to me. Whether or not you decide to dual boot, make one of these USB keys so you can recover if something goes wrong.

When I was using Debian I found I could generally get the latest version of software I wanted from Nix if it wasn’t in the main Debian repos, or was outdated. Nix works quite well on any Linux distro - it doesn’t interfere with the rest of the system.

All I can tell you is that this is done differently for each shell. So decide whether you want completions for bash, zsh, fish, all of the above, or whatever, and look at the docs for the relevant shells.

There are other galaxy clusters. Gravitational binding is not unique to the local cluster. From Wikipedia,

Notable galaxy clusters in the relatively nearby Universe include the Virgo Cluster, Fornax Cluster, Hercules Cluster, and the Coma Cluster.

The expansion of the universe is very tricky to explain. Oversimplifying can lead to an explanation that seems to be contradictory.

I think you want to remove the c because that means “create” an archive, and you’re missing a z which applies gzip decompression/compression

This is why I switched to labelling USB sticks with two-character codes, and I keep a file that lists the current content of each stick.

Thanks for the reply! Yes I have been trying WineGE. I didn’t realize it had special media support, that’s good to know.

Good to know! I’ll put the Ibis and fruit bat on my Australia bucket list, along with a Huntsman. Although the latter are so widespread that I’ve probably already seen some living in America. But I’m guessing the Australian Huntsmen are a bit different from the North American ones.

Anyone else read these newsletter titles in Pixlriff’s voice? “This week, in Hermitcraft Gnome!”

Sourcehut is already federated! The workflows use a combination of email (which is federated), and git clones (which are decentralized)

There’s a relevant community post, NixOS is not dying, please don’t spread fear actively

I tried Linux in college because it was a hot thing there. Been hooked ever since.

I’m not a distro hopper. I used Debian Testing for many years. Last year I switched to NixOS because it was a compelling value proposition for me. I’m very happy with it!

iOS also supports third-party passkey managers so that’s an alternative to Android for helping to fill gaps creating passkeys.

Nice! I may take a look. I’ve been happy with Enpass except that I recently switched to a window manager that doesn’t implement xwayland, and Enpass is one of only two apps that I haven’t gotten working in native wayland mode, or found a substitute for. So I’ve been running Enpass in a rootful xwayland window running a nested i3 session. The IPC connection to the browser extension still works so it’s not too bad, but I’m a little tempted to try alternatives.

I forgot to mention that to use a passkey manager on Android in addition to setting that Chrome feature flag you also need to set the app as your passkey manager. That’s done at the system level in Settings > Passwords & accounts > Passwords, passkeys, and data services

I find ngrok useful enough to pay for. When I want to demo some software I can run it locally and set up a temporary tunnel. When I used to have a VPS I would do this with SSH port forwarding, but I’m told that tunneling TCP in TCP can lead to some weirdness.

I used to have a dyndns subscription to get a stable domain name for my home router. It’s kind of another way to do the same thing - instead of a tunnel I could forward a part.

In which case you’re probably using a predefined 64-bit floating point number, which I think is accurate to 15 digits.
