This metaphor is great.

Linux is much better organized than Windows.

Is more prevalent in IT

The general population does not understand it at all (if we exclude Android).

The entire tech sector would collapse if Linux were to disappear.

I would strongly recommend not to dive into NixOS yet.

It has its benefits and I think it’s awesome, but it has a bit of a learning curve and you already have plenty of learning to do with going mouseless and the whole interface stuff. You do not want to deal withbreakages in unstable NixOS, or broken Nvidia drivers in stable.

If Bazzite’s immutability is holding you back, just switch to another distro you are familiar with: Be that Fedora, Ubuntu, Debian, openSUSE, whatever.

Hyprland is the most complete and configurable tiling window manager today, so definitely start with that. You can install it in any Linux distro.

a massively decreased interest in game design as a career.

This is worth a lot though. It takes many people a few years of their life, a burnout and a lot of mental healthcare to get to this point.

Of course we all have our preferences and personal history with these things, but I think we can all agree that most preconfigured Debian, Ubuntu, Fedora and openSUSE ISOs with popular desktops are already more sensible and simple than the mess that is “searching for a setting in Windows”.

Whether it’s GNOME, KDE, Cinnamon, Budgie, Mate, XFCE, LXQt.

Compared to Windows, every Linux desktop is a blessing. Even that one that you personally don’t like or had a bad experience with.

Stop it!

Now!

I said DON’T STRESS!!

Yes, Nix is a pure functional programming language, like Lisp.

The reason for its existence is to allow for reproducible and repeatable builds of packages and configuration. This is the basis for nixpkgs, NixOS and Home Manager.

Yeah I was planning on changing the salty README and referencing your comment, thanks for putting the reminder there!

Somehow I completely missed that split can do match groups… Oopsie! I did it in Python today but I did make a completely functional (and way too complicated) algorithm.

.

In the long run? The colony that avoids open conflict unless it’s absolutely necessary to spare lives and energy. Guessing that’s how these two ended up like this.

Exactly as asked. The etymologist to explain the etymology of entomologist.

Nix regex sucks. Is there any package with a reasonable regex matchAll?

Love the structure of your code. Exposing a part1 and part2 result from the same source file is a great idea

Your code looks awesome, I’m definitely going to steal some ideas from that, especially the lib.pipe really cleans up a lot of unnecessary bindings I did.

Doing a with import ./utils.nix is also a lot cleaner than nesting let statements.

Yeah that checks out.

I’m fairly new to this space so not aware of the more obscure or older ones but my list of popular Desktop Environments would be:

• KDE Plasma
• GNOME
• Cinnamon
• MATE
• Budgie
• XFCE
• LXQt
• Cosmic

I have been planning on migrating to Proton (I know, wrong community) and this could very well be the year. Just 2 gmail and 1 hotmail address/inbox to migrate but would love to follow the tips given here.

I have some questions to specify your case:

• Did you use tags a lot? Did you use them purely as a hierarchy (i.e. could it be mapped to folders) or do you have a lot of crossover between tags?
• Do you have a custom domain or is the original email on the gmail.com domain and the new one a different address?

Does Cold Waters work well on the Deck?

I’ve been hoping that the new Sea Power: Naval Combat in the Missile Age will work well on the Deck in a year or so, and was planning to stick to Dangerous Waters until then.

My P-3 (maritime patrol aircraft) bindings are shared on the community bindings already!

DW runs incredibly efficiently. The graphics look like 1999 anyways, so I just dial the TDP all the way down to 3 W and set FPS to 20. Perfect game when the battery is low!. I haven’t modded it at all, I actually like the retro vibe (and the incredible sonar simulation).

I am so happy for you. Loving yourself and being kind to yourself is so vital and can be very difficult. It still is for me.

I recognize a lot of what you guys here have, but to a lesser degree: apparently my “life difficulty” setting is not set that high. I seem to be extremely lucky to not have eating or sleeping problems at all, which keeps the rest manageable.

I deeply respect all you troopers, wherever you may be, for living life on the hard and extreme difficulty levels.

Hope you find the therapy and/or medication that helps. In the meantime, the dishwasher and the occasional strong coffee (not regularly as that won’t work) should help.

Keep on keepin on!

Huehuehue

🤜🤛 That’s lovely!
