Nix only stores each version of a package once, environments work by setting environment variables and such to control which packages are visible
You don’t need to abandon your distro’s package manager to use Nix, so you can adopt it as much or as little as you like.
Got rid of all of my centralized social media accounts apart from YouTube, moved from Proton to Migadu on my own domain (unlimited aliases! when signing up for a service I can just make up a new username and it gets organized into a folder in my inbox!), and moved my homelab and laptop to NixOS
Personally I would rather they had to make phones a little thicker again to include a properly sealed battery compartment, the new ones look very nice but it’s too hard to get a decent grip without accidentally bumping the edge of the screen.
Maybe the whole back side of the phone is the battery, and the two sides are independently watertight? The charger port and usb controller could be on the battery too, that way you can replace it if it breaks or you want to be compatible with a new fast charging specification, and you could charge it independently if you have more than one.
the PineTime can run for over a week in my experience, but it runs at 64 MHz and has 64kb of RAM, so telling time is pretty much its limit
This lawsuit would ruin generative AI!

Every good result they serve you could have been an ad, so they’re incentivised to replace as many with ads as possible.
How is this better than a normal messaging protocol like Matrix? What does blockchain add to the solution?
Would be an excellent change if they replaced it with a chronological timeline, but we all know they won’t do that even though their backend already generates RSS feeds and it would barely take any effort to integrate with the frontend
Flatpak and AppImage are trying to make that easier, since they both work the same on pretty much any distro, but not everything is packaged that way yet.
Flatpak is closer to the typical package manager model, where you install things from a graphical store or the command line, while AppImages are self-contained binaries that you download from the developer and run as-is without installing.
Snaps also exist, but they don’t work well outside of Ubuntu and its descendants…
These days, being an open-source browser that isn’t part of the Chromium monopoly is pretty much the only good thing they have left…
