My usecase is that I want to build a rock-solid workstation laptop for my non-tech-savvy family member.

I configure all the basics in .nix files, and then from there, they can install Flatpak from the software center, like they are used to doing.

Then I can just do a rebuild switch when I see them, make sure it’s all working, and then trust that they probably won’t break the system in-between.

Edit: to be clear, in my own config, if it’s not reproducible, I’m actively working to fix that.

YOU BASTARD

It has 1 downvote…

Every post that gets even a little traction is going to get some downvotes because people like to troll.

But this could even just be a misclick - I’ve done that before.

It’s really not worth worrying about.

Rizz is just short for “Charisma”

See my above comment.

Also all of that is irrelevant to the (false) claim that “cats get sick from eating meat without synthetic taurine”.

And even then the blurb didn’t contradict what I said at all. They’re clearly just desperate for a “gotcha”.

Yawn. Let us know when you have actionable steps. Daydreaming is easy and worthless.

Lots of “what”, zero “how”.

I just hate having to re-configure all my stuff whenever I set up a new box 🤷

Upvoted in Nix solidarity. One day they’ll understand.

Enabled the traffic log, used SwiftKey in a few different apps, got traffic from those apps, but nothing from SwiftKey. What am I missing?

null,

An app being able to subvert system-level permissions would be pretty huge news.

I downloaded that app along with SwiftKey and disabled network access for it. Here’s what I get: https://slrpnk.net/pictrs/image/32b10804-61db-4724-98e1-647e77bf17e1.webp

Where am I supposed to see it being able to access the internet?

Well said.

The spirit of Self-Hosting is trying things and then asking specific questions when you get stuck (stuck includes having no luck using a search engine).

I feel like breaking my windows install was a rite of passage

Lately ive noticed that i was wanting to do certain things on Windows that just seemed much easier and more intuitive on Linux, based in the OS specific solutions i would see to problems i encountered. And i was more frequently using software where Windows support seemed like an after thought....

If you could coherently phrase the issue, it might be an easy one to solve. As it stands your comment is impossible to decipher.

Manjaro can be “never heard of EndeavourOS”

Sites for what? Trackers for what?

null,

See my first thought was torrent trackers.

NixOS is just a hardware store

It’s not that it’s bad on a server, it’s just that something like Debian with a couple tools on top gets you to the same place with less resources.

For a home server, that reduction in overhead can mean squeezing out a few more services on a single box.

It’s weird that you’re being this defensive about it.

The other commenter wasn’t chastising you for posting the article, they were commenting on the article and the author of it. Nothing to do with you.

Ways to pirate music as convenient as Spotify?

The reason I gave up on MP3’s and subscribed to Spotify was because Spotify was easy. I’ve been listening “Iron Maiden - Empire of the Clouds” song every day and like a week ago, its removed. This was the last straw for me. Right now I’m trying to find “Stremio” of the music world. Can someone assist?...

Now this is what I’ve been looking for!

I like to DJ sometimes and I typically just create playlists for sets I want to do and listen to them over and over to get familiar / play around with the order / discover new tracks that fit by letting Spotify make suggestions.

It’s a pain to then have to go find all those tracks manually, so this sounds perfect for my usecase.
