Joke’s on you, I don’t understand Nix and I’m a NixOS package maintainer
I’m guessing you’re responsible for the documentation, as well.
Gottem lol
Kind of, but since I don’t know what I’m doing I mostly just delete some of it when it’s not working
teach us the way
while code_is_working != true { response = post(matrix_channel, [code, error_code]); [code_is_working, error_code] = run(response); }The secret is attitude, “fuck it we ball” attitude and method of “fuck around and find out” works just fine
This is rpm erasure
Redhat package manager, used on distros like fedora, suse, rhel
All power users, of all distros, use the CLI. It’s what unites us!
I used the CLI a lot when I was on Windows and RISCOS before that.
I admire your dedication to posting watamote linux memes

I switched to Gentoo but use the Nix package manager, helps if I wanna test out some software before committing to the compile. it’s been great.
I just want to install the latest version of an app without downloading half an OS worth of dependencies. AppImage had me dreaming of this day but the project seems like it’s dying, if not dead already.
Flatpak nowadays feels like the spiritual successor to appimage. All the dependencies are containerized, and uninstalling an app doesn’t leave behind a residue of automatically created files on your system… at least in theory. All of these benefits are kind of negated if an app has full disk read/write permission.
Appimage is kind of silly in my opinion. Appimage is just “portable application” (i.e. when an app gets shipped as a folder containing the executable,
.sodependencies, and resources), but crammed into a disk image for some reason.I was referring to flatpak when I said ‘half an OS worth of dependencies’. I have an extremely shitty and unstable internet, so downloading like 5gb for a simple app isn’t worth it. Even if my internet wasn’t as horrible, Flatpak is only worth it when you want to install dozens of big app and not when you want to install 2-3 apps, the heaviest being a 100mb or so as a .deb.
You can technically install dpkg onto arch; but it’s not reccomended.
Speaking of not recommended, you can technically install arch on an NTFS partition
You can also install Windows on btrfs
Why?
This seems cool and everything but why would you do this, just to say I can?
I have no idea, just came across it on GitHub one day and found it pretty funny. It seems to be pretty unstable though.
I can smell data loss issues just by reading this
The gentoo one is the most accurate, as I always leave it to compile overnight
What about Fedora users?
i installed nobara and while everything was simple to set up, the nobara installer doesn’t recognize the ssd i flashed it on. going great
