Ubuntu for many years, then back to Windows, then Arch for a year and now NixOS for about 1.5 years

Why not man pages though? That’s a very fast way of finding answers.

With NixOS source code is the manual!

Thanks! Gonna give it a try. What tablets do you have and what distros are using on them?

Did they actually decide against mass scanning for good or are they just going to rebrand it again? I’m confused

Have you had any experience with Mobian? Would you recommend it?

Wow, that’s pretty neat, thanks!

I’m trying to find an alternative to VPN to be used on a locked up Windows device I can’t install any apps on. And it should be easy enough to be usable by non-tech-savvy people. @moonpiedumplings@programming.dev already provided a good solution

Thanks! I’ll look into it

That’s exactly what I need, thanks!

Thanks! SOCKS5 proxy is a good option, I don’t know why I didn’t think of it from the very beginning…

My goal is to bypass local censorship on university computers that don’t allow running any executables except those provided by the administrator. And I’m trying to help professors who aren’t particularly tech-savvy, so a webproxy is actually still a better option.

A browser inside a docker is a very viable solution, however my VPS is super small, so I don’t have resources for that unfortunately.

Close to invidious but not specific to any particular site. A page that allows to open other pages through it, like a browser inside a web page except it’s only for opening a website and has no other browser functionality. Here’s a proprietary example: croxyproxy.com

I’ve been looking for something like this for so long, thanks so much! I like how minimal and functional it is at the same time. This is the best combination of social media and blogging.

It’s funny how deciding which side is truthful is based on which side you belong to. It’s also amusing seeing how people come up with myriads of proofs their side is right when the only true argument is “my interests go along with theirs”. And it’s tragic that both sides kind of tell the truth at the same time however contradicting it is…

The cascade seems to have begun.

Yes… I hope we’ll live through it

Hasn’t it kind of already started? All these individual wars are always backed up by either of the two big economic blocks: China and its allies vs. USA and its allies. It really looks like a rehearsal before a full-blown confrontation.

I’m a Guix guy myself

Oh that’s cool! I don’t meet people using Guix often. Could you tell me about your experience? Why have you chosen it? Are there enough packages? How can Guix be compared to NixOS (if you’ve used the latter)?

Now board another friend on NixOS and break their soul :)

Really, why though?

This! I’ve got 7 machines running NixOS already and using Linux on so many machines is only manageable with the reproducibility NixOS provides. Whenever I lay my hands on a new server, PC, laptop, tablet or phone, I just add a few lines for it in my config, run a single nixos-anywhere command and it’s good to go. Syncing changes is also just two commands: git pull && nh os switch. Been using NixOS for a year and a half and it still can’st stop to amaze me
