A pain point I’ve seen with NixOS for new users is the focus on editing files — how easy is it for her to install applications that way?

Debian is a stable distro and therefore tends to have less up-to-date packages.
Ubuntu added telemetry and forced snaps
What network topology do you have? My method only assumes server→laptop connectivity (laptop→server and laptop→repo are implied). If server→laptop is unavailable, but you can install Git in general on the server, you could forward the repo through SSH. If Git cannot be installed server-side at all, this is more difficult, and rsync would be the best method I know of.
Detach the laptop’s head, then git clone
from it over SSH on your build server. When you’re done, git push
will update your laptop’s branches, then you can git push origin
the relevant branches on your laptop.

The two most common sources of security vulnerabilities are buffer overflows, use-after-free, and off-by-one errors.
The point is that many programs completely ignore .cache
’s existence — when programs do actually use it, adding a backup exception is trivial, but having to manually find what’s actually cache in .config
(or, even worse, finding one SQLite database with the config and cache) complicates it.
Have Alt+F bound to wrap the current command-line in a function definition
It’s equivalent to cp -r
, but:
btrfs sub send
)btrfs sub snap -r
The complicated instructions are probably because certain SMS clients don’t allow clicking URLs from contacts you’ve never sent messages to.
There’s even .deb, .rpm, flakes, whatever pacman uses, … that are just package files that copy to /bin/ for you, like .apk/.ipas.
Get enough zoom to change your near-clipping plane.
Probably a reference to Reddit’s “fourth comment” thing.
By the way, Lemmy also lets you update the post image itself.
Those were in the first panel’s cabinet.
Yeah, I’m used to NixOS — however, having to edit the config (instead of e.g. a package manager) is a common pain point I see when others use NixOS, and it often leads to them switching distros.
