Can someone explain why so many comments saying this is bad and want their instances to block threads? Seems like it would be a good thing to make the fediverse bigger and more accessible.

The main reason I switch was the way packages work. When you install something that has a dependency say like python. Instead of using whatever python you have already installed it gets another python package that is the exact version the original packages needs. So everything you have installed that uses python has its own python. That way if your python gets updated for one thing it won’t break anything else that still needs the older version.
Its probably just a skill issue but I used both manjaro and arch for years on main desktop and both ended up broke where I couldn’t update anymore because of that issue. I know it can be fixed somehow but I always made it worse when I tried. I also had the same issue happen on my other computers(arch) when I would not update them for extended period of time.
Nixos not only fixes that by the way it does dependencies, but also because every time you “rebuild” it makes a new image you can boot from. So if a update breaks anything you just reboot back to the last working image. So the system is pretty much indestructible.
Other things i love about nixos.
Okay that was a lot of rambling. Probably repeated a lot of same points. I normally would go back and clean it up but I dont have time atm. I hope it somewhat answers your question. I feel like I’m forgetting something too.
If your interested you can try messing with nixos in a VM. Its pretty cool that if you make a config you like you can copy it from VM and use it. When I first switched I was pretty confused and it took probably two weeks to get my config anywhere close to what I had on arch. Most of that was trying to figure out how to config neovim plugins like LSP servers in home manager. Was so worth it though. Going from arch to nixos was every bit as great as when I moved from Window 10 to arch IMO.
I switched from arch to nixos a few months ago. I would recommended going straight to using flakes and never touching channels. Channels really confused me when I started.
Also don’t ever use env to install packages. Just add them to your configuration file and run rebuild.
This video help me a lot when starting. Its a bit old but I don’t remember anything being wrong. He goes over how to use channels and how to setup to update using flakes. Also covers homemanager setup. Nixos setup guide
Also Vimjoyer has some great nixos videos.
Fusion would be better, but the fission tech we have is already enough to fix the energy problem.
When I joined Lemmy I was on the FMHY server, but it shutdown some reason. And when I search FMHY I can’t find any active communities. I still use the website all the time though.
That just happened about a week ago for me. For the second time since I starting using them. Just randomly upped my storage and upload limit. I plan to keep my box with them for the foreseeable future. I don’t ever want to have to mess with VPN port forwarding. I have a home server I move my files to when I need more space on my box. But I don’t use the home server for torrents.
Only one I ever tried is whatbox.ca . Been using them for 7+ years. They are great.
I don’t know for sure, but I bet it takes a lot more mining to make enough solar panels + battery’s than powering enough fission plants. Plus solar panels wear out and have to be redone every 20-30 years from what I understand. Not counting maintenance and ones that get broke from natural disasters.
As I said though. I want both. solar/wind/etc definitely have a place. Just don’t think its good enough. Maybe if we have a massive break through on battery tech they will be.
Well if you read the comment I was replying too.
There aren’t enough rare earth minerals on the earth to create the necessary equipment for solar, wind, etc to meet our current energy needs.
Even if he is wrong. Mining so many is very harmful. Much better off building nuclear plants. Along with some solar/wind/hydro of course.
The problem with taking long to build and expensive is easily solve if the governments build them. Currently in the US it doesn’t happen cause it’s left to private companies, and they take a long time to become profitable.
We do need to cut down on overproduction, but nuclear energy is the real solution. We need to be building a bunch of state of the ark nuclear fission plants. They are super safe now, and barely put off waste anymore. They just take so long to build and are so expensive. Plus because of miss information hard to find a place people will let you build one.
As a new dev who is still working on a “full-stack web dev” course. I would definitely take it as a compliment.
I tried quite a few. ncmpcpp was cool, but I settled on using plexamp since I can use it on phone and desktop. I’ve been super happy with it, and they made it free a while back. So now my friends use it too and we can share our Plex music libraries.
If you allow background processing of shaders, and leave steam running while your doing other stuff a bit. You won’t even notice them. At least I don’t.
Not trying to be mean, and I realize this is piracy community. But if you are at the point where your adding mods to a indie game. Probably time to consider buying it. Clearly it would be worth it.(assuming you can afford it ofc)

I don’t watch sports so I can’t promise, But here is a big list of sites for streaming sports. Make sure your using ublock origin. These sites are always full of ads.
Dayz currently. Before that, Rimworld. Before that, factorio.
Once we start mining asteroids that will quickly solve scarcity for metals. Food is already solved production wise. Just need to figure out distribution. Which is currently not solved just because it’s not profitable.
Unless it was a recent change factorio doesn’t “require” a account. When I host my server I disable verification and my friends who still haven’t bought it are able to join no problems. If server has verification on then they can’t.
