Theres open cola but it’s not beer

Fellow lisp user I see

Lol Edit: TIL that’s what GTK stands for

GNU’s Not Unix! moment

Icecat: hoodie, eye patch, mask, a baseball cap, and an umbrella

Oh ok. Thanks for the clarification

Is there a way to browse the analog nowhere stuff in order? I’ve only found the 1st one and then varying increasing numbers like 400+

TIL! thanks!

There’s a TUI called sysz for systemd stuff, but I haven’t found a true GUI

I love how the POSIX standard is a real physical standard lol

I haven’t tried running a full Guix system yet but im really liking it as a package manager on top of arch. Yes, hardware support can be iffy, but there is an unofficial channel called nonguix that packages the standard Linux kernel instead of linux-libre, and yes there are less packages but honestly packages are so much more fun to write? I’ve written a few package definitions for both my own use and ive made a request to add one to the official channel. And I feel like, if I really needed something that would not be packaged due to complexity or something, I could try and use flatpak or an appimage or something. I think its definitely worth checking out.

Ah ok. Thanks for the clarification.

I can’t find anything about that online. Was that a joke? Cause I went and looked up the C64 as well and it doesn’t mention a “SarcOS”

That’s true. That’s what I’ve been seeing in places, people just saying to continue on and ignore the drama. And I know I shouldn’t let a group idea/thing dictate whether I use nix but like I was already starting to not like how it seemed like a lot of people were like “write all your stuff in nix (configs, etc)” and I didn’t want to get locked in. Plus I got busy and didn’t feel like tinkering with it. Idk. I was already losing interest in a weird way. I still think immutable/reproducible distros are cool though. I’m now just currently running Guix on top of arch and using aconfmgr to emulate some reproducibility.

Yeah that makes sense. I still have my old nix shell files so I can use them if need be for my environments

Oof. That sucks. Didn’t know that was a thing

I’m using an old laptop as my Linux machine. I set up auto login and sway launch so that I can just power it on when I wake up so I can use it later

That’s so cool. What OS do those things even run?

Idk imo knowing about the drama makes me hesitant to go back, especially since I switched all my development environments from Nix to Guix and I dont want to have three package managers lol Plus the Guix community seems really close knit

Also, happy cake day!

Oh nice! That looks cool!
