Yeah, I’m used to NixOS — however, having to edit the config (instead of e.g. a package manager) is a common pain point I see when others use NixOS, and it often leads to them switching distros.

A pain point I’ve seen with NixOS for new users is the focus on editing files — how easy is it for her to install applications that way?

Detach the laptop’s head, then git clone from it over SSH on your build server. When you’re done, git push will update your laptop’s branches, then you can git push origin the relevant branches on your laptop.

The point is that many programs completely ignore .cache’s existence — when programs do actually use it, adding a backup exception is trivial, but having to manually find what’s actually cache in .config (or, even worse, finding one SQLite database with the config and cache) complicates it.

Have Alt+F bound to wrap the current command-line in a function definition

By the way, Lemmy also lets you update the post image itself.

Fish does history autocomplete, not Starship — you still have autocomplete using unconfigured Fish, and you don’t get autocompletion by enabling Starship for other shells.

(Tip: Most shells allow you to press Ctrl+R to interactively search through history, meaning you won’t have to open a separate file.)

groupdel, groupadd
userdel, adduser

Ed is the standard text editor.

They want ~/etc/ in their home, which just seems like a renamed ~/.config/.

wtf gives the summary, and works for acronyms too.

Mint where?

NixOS and your family is always welcome to come over and your family is always welcome to come over for the weekend and friends are in my life and your dad will have a few minutes to be there by noon or something else but I’m not the one who is going for the weekend

Flaked NixOS unstable

I’m blind, sorry

No NixOS?

There’s thefuck, but it hasn’t given me good suggestions.

MacOS has two files per file, so the extras need to be stored somewhere.
