Not sure which country you live in, but renter’s insurance covered a stolen item for me when I was renting. Worth a check if you have a similar thing.

Catch me up on the drama please?

Wrong. Gimme a black woman to vote for and I’ll do it.

I’m pissed because we pissed away the emcumbant advantage but what’s done is done, here’s hoping we get to celebrate the first female president instead of orange Hitler.

Wasn’t the failed assassin a registered Republican?

+1 to this. I built a few deb packages at a previous company. It was a solid packaging suite but good lord was it a pain to work through

That’s a really good consideration as well! Hopefully its a quick shipping time for you

I love how repairable and modifiable the deck is as well! I swapped my sticks for hall effect sticks a while back. Was super easy to do.

If you’d like to game while waiting for your replacement part, you can link a Bluetooth controller to your deck or use the usb c port to give yourself some USB ports for a keyboard and mouse.

Really need a okbuddymoron sublem

Won’t lie I’m getting sold on this via this discussion

I mean, security is an unintended outcome of it. Any kind of isolation of packages provides a level of security.

All of these points are completely correct and paint an accurate picture of the inherent issues with both technologies.

My intent with my earlier comment was to show how flatpaks and appimages were different from traditional package managers at a high level so I could ask what made nixpkgs different from something I felt and still kinda feel is a more accurate comparison which are traditional package managers like apt etc.

The big selling point to me now is that nixpkgs seem to work similarly to virtualenvs from Python which is cool.

So it sounds like nixpkgs is more akin to virtualenvs in Python rather than a traditional package manager. Is that an accurate statement?

If so, I’d recommend that be your selling point because that’s some powerful security.

You’re not exactly comparing apples to apples here.

Flatpak and appimages tend to be used in any distro because they can just be downloaded in a one off manner and installed then you’re running the application (for the most part). They offer a manager of sorts but you don’t need it to use the packages.

For nixpkgs, whike I’m sure I can get a package from the sounds of the sizes the package covers only the application or the library, meaning I still need the dependencies.

So what exactly would make me the user trade my built in tools (apt/pacman/dnf) for nix? Keep in mind no matter how great you feel it is, you need to provide reasoning that motivates me to install and learn this new tool instead of the old ones I have.

My truck has two warnings. I could get them fixed but they don’t bother me, it’s for features I don’t use and I don’t care enough.

I thought I was reading a meme

I was 100% not aware if libertarian socialism. Definitely something to learn about. Thank you

Socialism by definition is not anti establishment. It’s anti current establishment but the philosophy is geared towards a bigger government “establishment”.

It’s definitely a health issue.

I was here initially because of the api bullshit, but now I just live here. Still hoping for the factorio community to grow a bit, but life’s pretty good and for the most part people are pretty polite. It’s a nice change of pace.
