It is such a beautiful system too. I would love to use it more, but nix and NixOS have kind of ruined every other operating system for me…

I call it Wayland/Linux.
It has the best integration with zfs, and has had that for a long time already.
Yeah, also a bit wary of btrfs. I sure hope some day bcachefs can be the true cow filesystem in Linux. There is hope, it is pretty good already.
NixOS definitely solves the issue of rollbacks the best here. And FreeBSD.
Laughs in NixOS, smiles in btrfs snapshots.
Used i3 and then sway almost a decade. When Plasma 6 arrived, I just wanted to try it out and it just kind of stuck to me. Lovely desktop.
In Germany, we have a health insurance card. Let’s say your insurer is Techniker Krankenkasse. They provide you a card with your photo and an NFC chip. You show this card in any doctor/hospital you visit, and your expenses are all paid. Today, as a new feature, your prescriptions are also stored to this card. You show the card in the pharmacy, get your medicine and the costs are all paid by the insurance company (minus the co-pay, 10 euros, which you pay by yourself).
Edit: To be clear, we don’t have public hospitals or doctors. They’re all private. But the insurance can be public, and the doctors and hospitals accept your public insurance and you don’t need to pay for them.
Nowadays you can get your prescription into your insurance card… Finally. You still need to walk to the doctor’s office though. But it is digital.
Come to Germany, the only country in the EU where paper usage is still going UP.
Arch together with btrfs or zfs (or in a few years, bcachefs) and snapshots is the way to go. You can just boot to a previous snapshot if something fails.
The end game here is of course NixOS, where the operating system itself provides a way to boot to an old configuration by default.
The follow-up discussion was informative and the original commiter learned something. We all learned something when we read the discussion.
I stand (or sit to be honest) corrected.
R.I.P. Bram.
Also, vim just extended vi that invented modal editing.
It is just me wanting to filter 🍎 completely from the instance, so all mentions to 🍎 products get redacted. That is kind of an insider joke due to that company being so prevalent in internet forums such as HN or Reddit. At least in my own instance all mentions of removed are hidden.
Divide and conquer…
I use podman on NixOS. It’s cool, but be warned there are subtle and less subtle differences.
The docker desktop does. It is very tricky to install docker without it on the Mac.
You can try installing it on GitHub actions for your CI runs with the Mac runner. It can be done, but takes forever, is hacky and breaks very often.
I’m a dev and I mainly see issues with removed… Every update breaks some tools the cli tools are ancient, homebrew is slow as hell and breaks quite often, docker is really slow and costs money if you don’t know how to avoid that, it’s very expensive to get to a certain amount of RAM that costs nothing on PC and so on.
No Steely Dan wtf
