So it doesn’t download for later use? It just becomes a proxy system to stream from the debrid service?

Stoked for you! Here is to hoping it’ll not bite you with any failing parts in the near future so you’ll have time to get used to how things work! We’ve only had ours for almost a year now and I’ve already replaced half the house. But we got a fixer upper. Lol

No clue why except i think people are mostly just really fed up with Mozilla making a non profit about everything but their browser. I could see a lot of people prefer the name and the willingness to try new stuff compared to floorp.

But really i think most of it is it’s very different from Firefox and people are tired of Firefox… But still hate chromium.

Doesn’t not having sex do that a little better tho? Like i totally get the point, but also, having sex gives chance of baby right? So, don’t do it unless you ready? Maybe I’m wrong.

Lols. Yea i actually hate that. No i gave been begging my org to just treat interns differently and actually help them rather than let them sink or swim. Most of the interns we get are expected to know all the ins and outs, but they are just kids yet basically. So i think hiring managers honestly should lower the bar and then the org needs to properly train and teach them to get em up to speed. Maybe it takes six months but it’s about time we start investing in our people.

This is why i went to Linux. This stuff needs to stop.

1. college doesn’t teach much.
2. college is still useful tho. It does require some determination and persistence to get through, or at least tolerance for dealing with. “This is the way to learn” junk.
3. most actually useful knowledge is gained on the job
4. I think most people fresh out of high school aren’t ready for a real job, but college grads are barely ready too to be honest. Hyper generalized and i bet most people reading this are actually very qualified, that said I’ve met many college grads interning with us who just don’t have the fortitude to do it just yet, hopefully by their second job they’ve grown accustomed to the dumb way of life we all call work.

Yes, but also… It’s true. Browsers are the number one way folks get viruses.

Interesting how the entire top of just spongebob characters…

A year and a half? Basically when hyprland got good enough. I used to use awesome and needed something with similar pretty features.

Everything is declared, from packages to configuration, and then I can put it in a git repo locked to versions. If something breaks on updates, you have free rollbacks. Which means you can’t screw up too much. Also it has almost all the software.

NixOS

Tell me your a developer without telling me you’re a developer

Is this for real? So I shouldn’t be worried about using certain websites that they’ll track me around?

I’ve been using Nix for over a year. And have had a pretty good experience. Then in the last 2 months I’ve switched to Guix. Its definitely farther behind. But it has such a better tooling story. I really wish folks could see the potential it has and build for it rather than nix because Guix has so much going for it.

The overall experience for both is great. You get declarative configuration and easy rollback. You do need more storage but it’s not much worse than windows really.

Don’t get me wrong Guix is hard too, you’ll have to package things yourself, or use flatpak, or use distrobox or maybe nix itself just to get all the things you need. BUT if you can grasp the language and packaging guidelines, it’s much more clearly laid out. The CLI tools are clearer, the methods are too. It’s not this confusing split mess that seems to be with NixOS. And there is still not a clear plasma desktop. But I’m trying to fix that perhaps. 😁

This. The nix language makes anything bigger harder. A big nix config is just hard to wrangle.

That might be true, but WebKit anywhere other than safari performed horrible for me.

I’ve been using it for over a year and love it. A config file for your entire system, and built in rollbacks anytime something goes wrong. One language to configure everything, although in practice that doesn’t always work. But I love it.

Some others have started why it works, here is some how. Nixos completely disregards the fhs. Packages don’t install to anywhere standard, every package and configuration change gets it’s on directory in /nix/store but through smart use of tracking everything there, it symlinks all those files to proper places and sets up the environment for them to know where libraries are.

This is then also why you don’t need sudo privileges to install things. Your profile has an environment that is aware of your users packages and configurations, the system itself isn’t effected because everything is symlinked.

Then because every update means new directories in /nix/store you can role back to your last configuration because plasma broke something or whatever.

However, it’s a LOT to learn. Best place I know of is https://piped.video/watch?v=AGVXJ-TIv3Y&t=0

This guy did a good job for me. Hope this helps!
