I've had my mail delivered exclusively by NNCP for at least six months now without any problems, although I still receive mail through a paid service by having it forwarded onwards to a personal domain.

I am very surprised that sequoia-chameleon-gnupg seems to work very well as a drop-in replacement. You still need gpg-agent and gpgconf from gnupg but using it with git and sops just worked.
And even if it didn't, with #NixOS it is easy to undo the change again.
My dear #NixOS package managers.
Can somebody please update this package @peertube #peertube

We need this 😎
Let me take you #linux people on a little journey. Right now, there is a war. A war between those who fear the future of #nix and #NixOS and those who are apparently not getting the point.
To call something #opensource can mean so much nowadays. When it comes to the idea of an enterprise nixpkgs vs the open source or "community" #nixpkgs, I think it's time to make it clear:
#DeterminateSystems wants to have it's own #RHEL. Functions are decoupled from nix for a reason.
I've been gifted 3 boxes of Dell 5/7 series latitudes. All solid state, i7 and 16 gigs of ram!
Came from a company that was just culligm them for being too old.
You know there getting the #linux and #NixOS treatment and going back out into the world for free locally for folks.
Thanks to Linux for giving machines like this an epic second life!
I yanked
#Manjaro off of my mother's laptop and replaced it with a nicely customized
#NixOS.
She now has a button to pull config updates from my #homelab and build it (also done regularly in the background). Old versions stay selectable at boot.
When she has a problem, there's shortcuts for #RustDesk and ad-hoc reverse #SSH tunnels.
I can test everything in a VM, then add changes, she'll pick it up eventually or right away.
Loosely inspired by @codemonkeymike's #nixbook.
I am proud and ridiculously excited to introduce you to The Computer Upcycle Project! Welcome to Episode 60 of Linux For Everyone, featuring the inspirational @codemonkeymike!

And here is my published dissertation @umphy, about quantifying the natural CO2 exhaust at the Starzach site in Southwest Germany (my result: ~10t/d):

I used a lot of #FOSS software and hardware for all of it and it was amazing. Honorable mentions: #gitAnnex, #dataLad, #KiCAD, #OpenSCAD, #PlatformIO, #Arduino, #TexLaTeX. I just wish I'd used #nix / #nixOS sooner.

I think I finally found my gripe with nix
So I've written code/configs in a fair number of languages, and most of them fall into three categories:
- Bracy languages (C, Rust, Java)
- Python/Lua/OCaml/Haskell (syntax wise, don't go on semantics)
- lisps
nix technically falls in the second
but because attrsets are so pervasive, almost everything looks like the first
Worst of all, even the arguments are deconstructed attrsets, so it's often just
{ a, b, c, ... } : { whatever }
And my brain goes into bracy mode but I can't really use it because nix falls in the second category
FAIR WARNING: I've only written nixos configs in nixlang so far. My gripes are with that
#nix #nixlang #nixos #programming #syntax #programminglanguages
