People, don’t downvote! Look at the instance David’s on. nl is Netherlands. That’s us. We are nazi europe. The fascists are in government here in .nl, with a party that has only one member.
That is forbidden in Germany btw. I always like asking Dutch fascists why they think that party structure is forbidden in Germany specifically. Watch them realize they have to link the way their party is organized to WW2.
Yes, you are right.
The old stuff, now no longer supported, is:
The new stuff:
Ah yeah that looks perfect, just get WayBlue Hyprland then! That sounds like exactly what you need.
No need to mess about with user services in systemd and display manager config.
NixOS
Alternatively (speculating here), you might be able to use Nix to install Hyprland onto an existing immutable distro like Silverblue.
Nix people please chime in!
I have never heard of WattOS but that sounds terrible.
It seems like antiX is a systemd-free Debian flavor.
If you want systemd, why not just use Debian? Or, if you are looking for a nice preconfigured DE/WM, any of a number of Debian/Ubuntu derivatives.
Mint for best out of the box setup, Pop!_OS for tiling, Zorin OS if you’re looking for a funky styling, any of the Ubuntu derivatives for the major DEs: Kubuntu, Xubuntu, etc.
I don’t know. All Nitter instances stopped but some hero sprinkled a bit of fairy dust on it and created xcancel.com
If it endangers the continued existence of xcancel.com, I don’t want to know how it works.
🤜🤛
Converting it to Nitter (xcancel.com) for people who don’t want to go there:

Great post! Completely agree! I will add that for filling out PDF Forms, Okular is amazing!
chezmoi does basically that, without actually making your home dir a git repo, it just syncs it. It also supports templating and per-machine differences. Pretty cool really.
SMB is originally Windows tech. So it might not play nicely with file modes?

And since we’re on the topic, if we’re borrowing things from Android I would love to have the application sandboxing and permissions. I think they’d be a much bigger benefit – to all distros, immutable or not.
Flatpaks and Wayland should fill out this part nicely.
I’m guessing this refers to the not entirely separate groups of Nix(OS), Haskell, XMonad fans
Distro version of Firefox worked wonderfully for me on EndeavourOS (Arch repo / Wayland / Sway) and Pop!_OS 22.04 (Ubuntu base / X11 / GNOME)
Completely off topic, but: I’ve been trying Fedora (KDE spin) for a few months now, and I’m flabbergasted at how unusable the distro version (not the Flatpak) of Firefox is. I think it’s a codec issue as I’ve checked Firefox is running in wayland mode, but:
Meanwhile, the Microsoft Edge flatpak works flawlessly.
Are you using a flatpak browser too? If not, how did you get your browser to work?
I really like Fedora otherwise: up-to-date kernel and modern (very efficiently stored) packages, but properly tested with major releases, btrfs and systemd by default and commonality with RHEL is useful at work.
But these codec issues are pushing me back to Arch…
Yes I thought the same. Except for coconut.
Coconut “oil” is a fat if you’re using the regular definition of room temperature. It’s solid at room temperature and has high saturated fat content (>90%), even worse than dairy (~60-70%). I know there are some other aspects to it that makes people enthusiastic but I don’t think there is any solid evidence that those aspects compensate the huge amount of saturated fat.
You should get about 2x more unsaturated than saturated fats. So dairy, pork and coconut fat should not be a large part of the fat in your diet.
Indeed, olive oil, flaxseed oil, peanut oil, sesame oil and basically every oil except coconut has more unsaturated than saturated fat and will help you balance your fat types.

I um… didn’t get started yet. But a colleague demoed it to my and it’s kind of between virtual environments and containers, if you’re familiar with Python.
You write a Nix config and specify exactly which versions of which package you want to have. Reproducibility is the main selling point of Nix. Things don’t just break overnight because a dependency of a dependency of a dependency got upgraded. You can always go back to exactly what it was like before. Guaranteed. That’s pretty cool.
Ok so you got that config, then you build and activate it, and it replaces your shell. You enter the Nix shell. You still have access to all your files and directories, but your Nix config controls exactly which versions of your tools you have. gcc, npm, python, maven, whatever you use.
You can see why this makes people want to build an immutable OS.
The main drawback of Nix is that it has a bit of a learning curve. Hence why I haven’t started yet. Maybe it’s time though.
Don’t listen to him! Just start using Nix to manage dependencies and dev environments for your projects but keep your OS the same until you are really good at Nix
A-4 Skyhawks, like most fighter/attack jets since the 1960s, usually fly with at least one drop tank of fuel. The two tanks under the wings is the most used configuration during the 60s and early 70s. Later versions, such as the USMC’s A-4M, which was used until the early 90s (but not deployed in Desert Shield / Desert Storm), were often seen with a larger drop tank (400 gallon?), often preferring a single large drop tank on the centerline to have more room for weapons. These did have a significantly stronger engine so bringing a larger payload was useful.
In my first month with the Deck, I have mostly played:
And the hilarious tech demo of course!
I’m really happy with how well Death Stranding works and really see myself finishing it now that I can play it on commute. Love that game but it never fit my schedule (at the desk, I always played flight sims in VR or just a very quick shooter session).
Red Faction and GRID are easy enough on the battery, especially at 40 fps, and not too fussy about controls so they feel good with a controller (I felt a bit handicapped in Dirt Rally 2 and Project Cars 2).
In terms of emulation, I installed RetroDeck and tried Gran Turismo PSP but found that hard with the large stick and no analog controls for accelerate/brake Just putting some PS1 and PS2 games on it now, let’s see if those will be able to bump GRID and Red Faction from my frequented list:
