After implementing Brainfuck and Sudoku in Nix, I was thinking of implementing a backend framework. However, I decided that I am not insane enough for that.

I bet Windows Updates are signed. Uncovering the signing key would probably have serious consequences.

Yes. It’s an app called termux, which is like having Debian on Android

I am on 1.8.0

It’s not working…

Other metals can corrode as well. It’s not only iron oxidation.

As a kid helping his family’s XP and 7 computers, I had faced plenty of issues.

My favorites:

• One computer (I think XP) didn’t use the correct resolution on Intel’s driver, and needed Windows’s fallback driver
• One computer (I think 7) required Windows’s fallback driver for audio, and Windows Update was installing VIA’s or Realtek’s drivers

I think that spreading Windows across Linux machines is easier. Linux’s root can be remounted as tmpfs, allowing the boot drive to be re-imaged. I don’t know if Windows can do that.

Thank you. I love it.

What are the benefits of built-in encryption versus LUKS ?

Maybe the arguments against systemd are issues of the past. I see people, hating systemd, bringing the same arguments of it being unstable, or constantly breaking, again and again.

However, I don’t remember actually coming across any of those problems, or discussions about them, for the past 5+ years that I have been using Linux both for my computers and servers.

I have used Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, Arch, Proxmox, NixOS. All of them use systemd.

They only problem I remember facing with systemd, which is actually never mentioned by anti-systemd people, is about its containers system, nspawn, which enables some security features by default. Those break things that tend to work with LXC without much tweaking. Docker, for example, may face issues running inside nspawn.

No, they want to migrate from usb-based exploits, to audiojack-based ones
