Excuse me sir or madam, do you have time to talk about our lord and savior NixOS?

methane does not have a smell. most hydrocarbons don't. that's why they put smelly stuff (mostly thiols, which are very smelly sulphur compounds) into butane, gasoline, etc.

NixOS is completely plant based

On the official page it says that it is pronounced For Jay Yo (at least close enough)

this is the attack on stallman

seems prett damning to me

also i'm going to let devault himself rebut this

also no: stallman being under attack for credible accusations and even non-retracted public statements is not an "attack on free software" but a much needed clean up. call it a refactoring of legacy assets, if you want.

In austrian german dialect, "Mit da Ua, draht ma zua." which in standard german would be "Mit der Uhr, dreht man zu." and in english "With the clock, turn it closed." or something like that.

"Noooooooo! One tool should do one thing and one thing only! Blasphemy! Heresy! Anthema! Systemd!" crying in unix design philosophy

not EVs. public transport. or at least mostly that and a little EVs

that's iceland. they don't have potholes, because none of their streets get very old, see exhibit A

As an embedded firmware guy for 10ish years:

C can die in a fire. It's "simplicity" hides the emergent complexity by using it as it has nearly no compile time checks for anything and nearly no potential for sensible abstraction. It's like walking on an infinite tight rope in fog while an earth quake is happening.

For completely different reasons: The same is true for C++ but to a far lesser extent.

Recommendation for a newb (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hello,

I'm looking to buy a mechanical keyboard (well duh...) and I have the following requirements:

  • under 100€ (not a super hard requirement, but not like 300€)
  • relatively silent (so no blue switches, i'd probably prefer red or brown)
  • german keyboard layout
  • bluetooth, to use with my iPad, but also USB (USB-C, if possible)
  • as long a battery charge as possible, because I keep forgeting to plug things in
  • battery indicator of some sort, to show me when to plug in; doesn't have to be anything special, a LED telling me to fucking-plug-it-in-already(TM) is alright
  • Tenkeyless layout with separate F-Keys, arrows and home/end/up/down block
  • exchangable switches would be nice

For now I don't have any aesthetic requirements. Can somebody help a fella, who doesn't know what's good and what's not, out?
