I actually use NixOS, but my configuration also accumulates packages I will no longer use. Even worse, these packages will be reinstalled wherever I use that config!

This is so true because gzip uses the Deflate algorithm :O
You are right! I meant to refer to Plymouth, which will do what I described. It’s been a while since I did this.
Perhaps this is a little overkill, but you could install a display manager like GDM or SDDM that displays a graphical password input.
I noticed that you are interested in immutable distros! That’s a good choice for your requirements, since it allows you to skip troubleshooting most issues by rebooting or performing a rollback.
I myself am happily using NixOS, but I think its advantages only shine when you want to spend time configuring your system. That being said, if you want to invest that time once and you stay on the stable version, you can also have quite a stable experience.
The other two options you listed are both atomic Fedora spins made by uBlue, which add minor customizations to the base image. Both of their non-GNOME seem to be based on Fedora Kinoite, which would be another option. Fedora is generally more opinionated, which is good if you don’t want to tweak anything.
Between these Fedora images, I’d recommend Fedora Kinoite for simple setups and Bazzite if your focus is on gaming. I have never heard of Aurora before and it doesn’t seem to add that much. That being said, if you want to try out multiple of these options, you can always rebase your current atomic Fedora desktop to another image!
You can use glim or build your own tool using grub. Edit: The article on Arch Wiki describes the manual process and also list more automated alternatives.
My TTY or whatever it’s called is also grey :)
My terminal is grey :)
I freed my entire disk by removing the French language pack
I mean the part with configuring Nix in a GUI is what Snowfall is trying to do and there are a lot of GUIs for Git as well.
I just wrote a blog post and it was shit but at least I know what to do better next time.
For me it’s even worse. Forward slash is also Shift + 7 and backslash is AltGr + ß?? I hate that computing is only optimized for US american layouts. Going by my keyboard, the filepath separator should probably be an ö.
oh great another Rust crate that is scared of making a stable release
I heard that SVGs in <img>
tags are more restricted than ones in <object>
or plain <svg>
tags. Try using these instead.
but it enhances thermal conductivity :)
You’re right, it was a vad example. I added some other examples that might be more accurate, allthough less popular.
Interesting question because I think there are entire families of programming languages that share mostly the same syntax. Often, a popular language of its time like C, Java, Python or Lua inspires a range of languages with a similar syntax, but different semantics. Like how JavaScript was supposed to look like Java, but to be adopted to a browser environment. Edit: C# may be a more accurate example, or how Godot Script and Bend look like Python.
I’d say the language family that has the most uniform syntax is shell scripting languages. They have mostly been standardized by POSIX and features are often being copied to make the shell more familiar and interoperable.
Yup, I’m learning Rust this way over at https://github.com/brckd/advent-of-code-2024 using a handy template I found.
Regarding the puzzles, I was able to solve all of them so far using
regex, itertools and some bruteforce >:D
I already joined a private leaderboard, but if more people are interested, we could create one too.
Aight, didn’t know that. I cannot yet imagine any scheduled task that would require anything more advanced than cron (or a similar standalone syntax), but I’ll just trust you with that one.
Yes, you should not install packages and this incident will be reported.
