    I haven’t looked at the fedora logo in so long I legitimately thought Facebook had released a Linux distro…

    …the curve on the bottom of that f is doing a lot of work to try and make that logo different.

    Also after years of being McMahon I have evolved into an Asian Punk Hacker it seems… No idea what I was before McMahon, Manjaro and Slackware are not on the list. And I use Debian for servers.

        Yes I saw that when I zoomed in, but doesn’t look like it without my glasses on the phone because the contrast on the watermark is just low enough to make it look like “JPEG blue”

    Look, all I want is for my shit to work and work every time. I drive a car from the 90s. I go out of my way to buy handheld electronics that take standard cell batteries. I’m writing this while shitting in a toilet made in 1972. I don’t mind things being a little out of date as long as they just work.

    Anyway, guess my distro.

    Void on laptop, alpine on homeserver. Yep, checks out.

    Love how the indian guy sitting meme perfectly sums up how I feel about alpine, nixos, and freebsd, even though those are completely different projects with different directions and goals. “It’s boring and it just works”.

      NixOS “is boring and iust works” until you want to do something fancy a module author didn’t anticipate and suddenly you find yourself defining functions that use genAttrs on some lists imported from JSON files

        This (and systemd bugs) is the main reason I moved away from nixos on my homeserver. Nowadays if I want declarative configuration, I just cram everything into docker containers and write a huge docker-compose.yml for everything that I want to run. Would still recommend nixos for things that don’t require a lot of tweaking. Like if I had to set up a simple website for a small business or something. I love how you can set up SSL certificates for nginx with autorenewal just by switching it on in configuration.nix.

          I haven’t encountered systemd bugs in NixOS yet. Doesn’t mean they don’t exist - but I can’t confirm the issue.

          I run everything on NixOS nowadays and I do think that all of this makes sense, whether the implementation is the best I can’t judge.

          Just wanted to make sure my statement wasn’t a criticism on NixOS, the maintainers do a great job. It’s rather taking a jab at the “boring” statement.

          Nowadays if I want declarative configuration, I just cram everything into docker containers and write a huge docker-compose.yml for everything that I want to run.

          Docker compose is imperative though ;) (if that actually matters is up for debate) - fun fact nix allows you to build containers very easily.

          I love how you can set up SSL certificates for nginx with autorenewal just by switching it on in configuration.nix.

          How well this all goes together is really one of the strongest points of nix and NixOS. Though just for manageability, I personally wouldn’t put this into configuration.nix, but rather into a file dedicated to the respective service.

            Maybe I’m confused, but from what I understand, “declarative” means you tell the computer what you want the final thing to look like, and “imperative” means you tell the computer what steps to take. So Dockerfile would be imperative because it’s a set of commands that are executed in-order to create the image. Meanwhile docker-compose.yml is declarative because you say which containers are used with what options and how they’re interconnected. IDK tho, as far as I understand the definitions aren’t that rigid

      “Care about the interface” and “Windows” are oxymorons in my book (also hate KDE but haven’t been on desktop Linux in ages).

    We use nixos not because its perfect but because its the best there is(if you want immutability(and you still want access to conventional feeling updates))
