Why is it painful for you?

I use nix package manager on fedora silverblue. It's awesome.

Have you met nix?

[–] GravitySpoiled@lemmy.ml 3 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I don't own one but I agree, it ist very good. But it's too expensive for what it is nowadays. A second hand one or maybe the next generation might be worth it again

I use an amazon fire tv 4k, I only use it to start jellyfin. It's perfect.

If you don't want it to phone home, put it behind a firewall, and block all but your domains

Even worse. Many apps have google signature instead of the developers. They upload their key and give it to google. Horrible practice. Nowadays, fdroid gravitates towards reproducible builds with the dev's own signature and google is going the other way round. Gravitating towards an unsafe "best practice" ...

If that's of your concern, you can't download the play store version either. It is the same app, has the same signature.

Thats not a random apk

Another intepretation: one uses data to distinguish between popular and crappy stores.

I always neglected it because of its name. I thought it's something for rust...

is there a bookmark manager like jabref for linux url bookmarks?

I use Jabref for papers and books. I group and rate them and keep track of reading status. There are a lot of websites that also provide valuable information but firefox' bookmark manager can't be used to rate sites or make comments. I can manually add links which is cumbersome.

Is there a similar tool like jabref for internet links?

In the optimal case it would take firefox' bookmarks and work with them such that I can bookmark a site with Ctrl+D and do all the site related work within that manager.

edit: Bonus, if it automatically fetches the article to preserve it

 

I want to install a package, I lookup for the package here https://search.nixos.org/packages? I can find multiple versions. two that sound right, two sound like rubbish and one is a plugin for something. How do I decide which of the two good sounding packages I should choose? What if the package or even both not work? How do I know that it is up to date? How do I know that it will be updated in a timely manner? Can I update it?

 

I found this SQL style guide which looks good. I'm not a pro at SQL but it looks good to me. I mean, you use the style guide your boss wants you to use, or what all others use, but what if you could choose?

Today, I wanted to have another go with nix. Previously I just read about it and didn't do anything for a couple of months. Now, I installed nix package manager with very few lines of code and two more to install many packages as described in his post. Installation was very fast on my banana laptop. Until now I used distrobox but I always wondered which distro/ package manager to use. What's your experience with it? For now, I'll test it. It's super easy to use. It may not be straight forward to a linux newcomer but if you know what you want, e.g. ffmpeg you can just add it with home-manager edit and install it with home-manager switch. So far, I love it!

 

I wonder if there is a nptocable difference between a HDD and SSD. Did someone already test it? I run it off a good SSD but wonder if a HDD would be enough.

 

What's up with homebrew that you'd have it installed by default on linux?

I don't understand the appeal of it, can someone help me?

 

I just bought a new computer. I'll install fedora silverblue. Do I just need to copy the home directory? And crontab. What else do I need to move?

Do you guys have good resources on how to feed your dog vegan?

There are a lot of pages online that simply say "consult an advisor" who will calculate what your dog needs. I'm not bad in maths, I could calculate it myself if I'd knew what the dog needs. I can look into commercial dog food ingrediants but there are declarations like "minerals" without any further specificiations. Moreover, I eat a huge variety in differrent vegetables and food in general, yet my dog shall always eat the same according to vegan complete feed. Moreover, I can not properly judge whether a feed is good because the information is missing.

Where does the nutritionist get his information from? There must be someone who has studied the needs of a dog based on size and breed and created a formula such that you can calculate the servings.

I've looked into books on amazon and the comments are horrible. There's nothing on libgen and google scholar doesn't yield appropriate results.

 

It improved slightly with opengl but it's still very slow to render offline maps after years.

 

I'm checking out flowly right now. I'm looking for a kanban board that optimally connects with a todo list and calendar, preferably webdav (but no must). what can you guys recommend?
