@rolle That reads as damage control, more or less, honestly.

I don't think it's possible in the current situation (irrespective of what is or is not true about the reports), an employee would make a post like this without some kind of cui bono.

@MauriceElliott @eschwartz I totally get this, I have goofed more configs than I care to admit. However, for me personally the opportunity costs of #nixos would absolutely not outweight the opportunity costs of 'eselect news read' once in a while...

@frumble Kein Vergleich mit MacOS nötig, ghostty und co. gibt's nicht nur "auch" für Linux, die allermeisten kommen doch von dort.

The vision to finally have a native #QtQuick terminal emulator with #Kwi is already something, but being based on #libghostty has me really excited.

NSF requested 500 million dollars, total, for math AND physics, next year:

Simply funding basic research is an absolute bargain compared to LLMs brute forcing results for press releases

@jaredwhite rewaita is awesome, but is also but a crutch for a walled garden system that is #gnome taking away most if not all #freedom from both developers using GTK as well as users wanting to use GTK-4-based programs. It’s a tragedy and I suppose you don’t know what is possible elsewhere.

@MauriceElliott @fell Well you *could* by adding overrides to the ebuilds you want to declare, but I agree that‘d be much more convoluted than NIX.

It makes more sense imo to seperate config and package installation and use a git repo for dotfiles if you want to.

What I can say with certainty is that it's also better for Sam Altman not to be on my desk. (Not sure about him being in a data center, though.)

@thomasfuchs Funny thing though is that imo, #apple is still the best of the bunch when it comes to design and usability. (Mind you, NOT #MacOS itself...)

I too miss the days when devices were about what the user wanted to do with them...
