Atuin has been such a life saver. I never learned/used whatever mechanism bash had for looking up history... (ctrl+s maybe?) And the history command always seemed to miss things.

What's your favorite spice? If that doesnt make sense for cooking then I'll just ask what spice do you use most often?

Many people think of Docker as a virtual machine, but a better way to look at it is as a security wrapper around a process.

I really like this interpetation of containers. Thanks for sharing.

 

For example, compose2nix lets you build nixos configuration for containers defined in a docker compose compose.yml. But this step happens offline. You have to first ad hoc generate the config from the compose.yml and then use that generated output in your config.

It seems obvious to me that the best user experience would be to write a flake/module that let's you just point to a compose file directly in your config. On rebuild, it would parse the compose file and build the appropriate config.

But I've not really seen that. These projects that convert from one package mamagement scheme or config file to another (xxx2nix projects) work using this preprocessing step. More examples include pip2nix and cargo2nix.

Given how common this pattern is, I suspect there is something preventing generating at rebuild time from being feasible, or at least easy. Does anyone have ideas for why this is? Thanks.

Me and one other tech friend who appeased me. We tried simplex first, but sometimes their background service would be off and they wouldnt get messages. So we switch to Molly.

I've had an amazing time remoting into friends and families windows machines from my linux box, and they were able to install rustdesk very easily. It's incredibly streamlined and has been so helpful when I need it.

I use a tool called ouch so I never have to remember the tar flags ever again.

Yes, let's just give up. That's the best choice.

I dont think the criticism of installing apps is valid. Windows also has many ways of installing things. He criticizes the app center as if you can install everything from the microsoft store. On windows you still install stuff from a website, and you can use a package manager too it just isn't a requirement.

OBS Studio: There's a community version but no official version of OBS for Linux.

This is incorrect, right? Im assuming had to install it somewhere else and presumed it wasnt official.

 

The gist is you write macros/automations/scripts to play the MMO based on your logic.

I decided to do it in bash/curl/jq to make it extra fun and learn some tools I use occasionally but only withheavy man page referencing. After some playing I might be a bash-scripting pro.
