Copy one file over and it’s set up for you.

So, I've only played around with NixOS on a Raspberry Pi, but... Don't people usually split their config up in multiple files, and then store than in a Git repository?

The process then still is: check out that Git repository, except there's another step: copy over your private key so that you can decrypt your secrets.

Is that correct? Or did I make things needlessly complex for myself?

Ja precies, dat bedoel ik ook.

Hmm nou ja, eigenlijk krijgen ze geen hulp - de cadeaubon kwam van het Leger des Heils, en die hebben de NAVO-top niet georganiseerd. Je kan ze dan niet echt kwaad nemen dat ze "slechts" een cadeaubon geven.

Maar ook anders hangt het er een beetje vanaf hoe groot de cadeaubon is. "Cadeaubon" klinkt een beetje alsof je een tientje toegestopt krijgt, maar er zijn wel veel onderzoeken die zeggen dat mensen direct geld geven zodat ze zelf kunnen bepalen wat ze nodig hebben, toch vaak een van de effectievere manieren van hulpverlenen is. Nou is dit wel beperkt tot een sportwinkel, maar daarbinnen is het iig basically geld geven, dus dat is al iets.

Blijft natuurlijk dat het een wrang idee is. Liefst heb je natuurlijk dat mensen uberhaupt niet dakloos zijn, NAVO-top of niet.

(Context.)

Yeah, but that just means that we might be able to avoid stalemates - not necessarily that we'll get a government that's better than usual 😅

On the one hand I'm not sure if that's such good news (I don't like the PVV, but I do think it's important that citizens are involved in how the country is governed), and on the other hand I'm not even sure that it's true. They're still polling strong.

They won't rule any more, that's true, but they'll make it harder to former a stable government, and still have strong influence on the policy that does get enacted. Compared to e.g. any election before the last one, I see no signs that make me particularly hopeful.

It was as mandatory as the 5% will be now, right?

Sure, there are options, but they're not terribly different from last time. It's always possible to get something great, but I don't see how hopes are particularly higher now than they were e.g. at the last elections.

We have good hopes the next government is gonna get it right.

Wait what? Where do those hopes come from?

It costs nothing* to kiss some ass, it buys the US nothing, and yet it can get Trump (and thus the US) to support you. To do anything else would be irresponsible, TBH.

*Not even your pride, in this case, because everyone can see that Trump is the baby for needing it, and everyone knows you don't need to mean it.

Wayland-only even, but still affects many people of course. Important from that thread:

a workaround that doesn't require restart is dragging a tab around.

Oh yeah I'm with you there. I think the project kinda grew beyond its initial goals, and now it's hard to rename. Made more complex by GSConnect being by an independent developer from the KDE Connect team, I think. But the naming is confusing for sure.
