Lol he endorsed Twitter after leaving Bluesky? That's an interesting series of events.

Yeah I think Twitter has been a net negative for society.

Does the staple cause any issues?

It doesn't need it, it works totally fine without it.

(Also, FWIW, the toothbrush itself connects via Bluetooth, not Wi-Fi)

I decided to try Cursor today (first time using any coding assistant) to refactor my sloppy NixOS config, and I'm really impressed to far. My config is so much cleaner and very well documented. It even has automated backups, a README.md, and CHANGELOG.md now!

The cost has been ~$20 so far (I'm still tinkering with it).

ETA: I also use ~~Arch~~ NixOS btw


Edit 2: I asked it "how might I streamline my deployments a little?" It wrote some nicely polished scripts that use deploy-rs, and wrote some nice documentation for it.

The script didn't work on first run, so I added the console output to the context and asked "what went wrong here?" It debugged and fixed the script, and updated the docs.

I think this has been the most frictionless NixOS experience I've had so far

Wow, I can't believe I almost forgot about netbooks

Nah it was a while back. IIRC there were multiple sources, but I don't remember any of them 🙃

Though, I don't really remember the details either. Maybe it was OS specific? I know there was a dodgy FUSE implementation out there for macOS at some point, and Cryptomator mounts its local drive with FUSE. I use macOS and NixOS, so it coulda been that.

I've been trying Peergos lately, and I'm pretty happy with it so far.

Google's nagging offers for free trials of Gemini made me realize that I was basically handing data over to an AI company 🤦🏻‍♂️ So I've been looking for an alternative too

I started to go down that path, but then I heard that there were problems with data corruption

I learned a bit of Esperanto, many years ago. It's crazy how easy it is to progress in that language, compared to natural languages.
