They only dedup runtimes, not individual dependencies.

Not sure I follow you entirely, but I think we agree.

No, not quite. Flatpak is containers - it just stuffs every dependency that an application needs in a directory with no way to deduplicate or update independently. Gobo is a bit more nuanced, since dependencies are shared between applications when the versions match.

I think the main premise is that every version of every software has its own installation prefix. This allows you to mix&match different versions, perform atomic upgrades, etc. You can think of it as a proto-Nix. TBH I don’t see much point in it now that Nix(OS) and Guix exist, or, if you don’t like their purity, stal/IX.

To be clear, NVidia supplies Linux drivers, but they are proprietary semi-broken nonsense.

Yep, NixOS as a base + some Flatpak store for installing apps. In fact, use impermanence to just drop all OS state apart from logs, network settings and flatpaks. That way, “turn it off and then on again” will almost always work to fix the OS.

Just use OsmAnd. It’s old-school in terms of its UI and can be clunky, but it’s FOSS, has hourly map updates (free for OSM contributors), and a lot of customization and features.

It’s kind of a malicious compliance thing. The new name will not show up on any map renders, moreover it’s not likely to be shown in most apps even if you select the object (because official_name:* is not supported by most apps).

The fact it doesn’t show you the best match of your search based on distance by your location (or is because)

That highly depends on the search engine you’re using, OsmAnd for example sorts the search results by distance to your location.

It doesn’t show the 2 places I sent ~1 month ago or they’re hard to find (available on site, not on organic maps)

That’s an Organic Maps problem, they only update the OSM database once a month, and you have to click the update button manually when they do so.

I kinda recommend against Organic Maps at this point. It’s a dumbed-down app with bad routing, bad search, and slow updates. The only thing it has going for it is that it has the best UI/UX (especially for new users) compared to other FOSS openstreetmap apps. If you’re ok with proprietary nonsense, mapy.cz is a lot more fleshed out, and otherwise you should just learn and configure OsmAnd for yourself.

It’s not too bad tho, we’ve already replaced this with Github actions: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/356023

I don’t think it’s a solution for this, it would just mean maintaining many distro-agnostic repos. Forks and alternatives always thrive in the FOSS world.

Nixpkgs too BTW https://discourse.nixos.org/t/infrastructure-announcement-the-future-of-ofborg-your-help-needed/56025

Statistically speaking most LGBTQ+ ARE mentally ill. This is not hate speech and you’re a brainwashed idiot if you think it is.

It’s disingenuous to equate statements like “Most LGBT people suffer from anxiety and depression” and “Being gay is a mental illness”. It’s the second kind that is the problem, and I don’t think anyone is worrying about the first.

You are so far up your own ass you somehow blamed the censorship of an operating system within a social media website on the entire far right. <…> How about you blame the oligarchs and big tech CEOs for reprogramming your mind to think and dislike what they want you to think and dislike.

“They” in the second paragraph seems to refer to the people in power, I don’t see where they are blaming “the entire far right”.

The funny bit is that I’ve seen multiple references to “Meta/Facebook finally stops censorship” from right-wing-ish sources (probably because they stopped fact-checking and removed some moderation guidelines). And now, this…

On the other hand, their software to flash GPU VBIOS is proprietary, requires downloading from some third-party websites, and they are quick to DMCA the shit of anyone hosting it on GitHub. They’re definitely not saints (neither is any capitalist corporation to be fair)

Cool! And good to see flake.nix right out of the box as well :)

Although I’m a bit annoyed that it forces its own colortheme rather than use the default colors so that it matches the rest of my system.

Trying to “secure” a turing-complete computer system by some arbitrary limits like that will never work. Unless you manage to directly prevent traffic that isn’t going through your proxy, it’s all pointless as people will just hack stuff together, be it by downloading binaries themselves and placing them in the home dir, or even by running them in-memory.

Nah, still easy to circumvent. This should work: https://github.com/hackerschoice/memexec, or (for dynamic exes) just call them through ld-linux.

Wow, this is pretty good! I might have to finally ditch sway.

A text post without a picture would achieve the same result just fine, without stealing work from artists and regurgitating it into a soulless, artifact-ridden and generally ugly picture.
