Every tool has its job. Why should a TTY terminal emulator also be a image/pdf viewer?
Never be afraid to try different distros you can always wipe and try again. You won’t break your computer. I’m a big fan of immutable distros but I’ve never tried fedora blue. Either will make a rock solid system
Kids will vape at the sensors just to see them on the TV
Camel case for short names snake case if it starts getting hard to read
Sounds like you need nixos
Nix apps are not sandboxed and you have no control of what resources they have access to or don’t, unless you wrap them with some other program
How the fuck…
Windows sucks, I love open source, built my own computer didn’t want to pay a 100$
Xournal++ for sure
The project contains binary blobs anyway so theoretically it wouldn’t be super hard
If you have workplace requirements I can imagine their security policy would let you run a app like this anyway?
I use nixos, due to the incredible state management. You know exactly what versions of packages are on your machine, can build all packages from source yourself or download from a binary cache. 100% reproducible. Steep ass learning curve but tbh it’s well worth it. Saves you configuration time and energy in the long run. I’ve stopped distro hopping the implementation is so good. If you are concerned about security you can definitely harden it. There’s a lot more to security then package version. And even then nixos gives you the choice.
You’d be surprised how many people don’t care about business practices. It’s actually kind of alarming
I love nix but it’s my main gripe with nixos. They really should switch to an alternative service.
Basically but it’s better, nix has a unique way of doing the underlying the logic which as is own benefits. Also since nix is not a container it doesn’t have any of the speed penalties that come along with that. Since nix is functional as well, it means all operations can be undone. So where you might te build a docker image from scratch or by using a A/B system like other immutable distros it allows nix to just modify the system while it’s running with minimal side effects.
Everything about your OS is defined in a config files and can be rebuilt. You break something you don’t need to do a complete reinstall if you can’t figure it out. Just rebuild the last working configuration. Sharing builds with your friends is easier.
For gaming getting your graphics card going is much simpler. I never had steam and proton games run as well as they do with they nixos defaults
I think infrastructure as code is best utilized when paired with software testing and rapid deployment. It allows for a kind of granularity manual configuration doesn’t give you
Oh sorry I didn’t assumed you meant darwinian pressure as in the kind that causes genetic changes in a population through natural selection? Because that seems cruel and unreasonable?
I drew the conclusion that you meant darwinian pressures that influence the success of one pattern of thought over another in the current population?
Usually you need to patch some stuff as a lot of the hardware doesn’t have mainline support. For the mango pi I found this

The nixos link there works but it’s a bit out dated
