We eat from the bag round here, but it tracks

Are you crazy? An exe could corrupt the registry, delete system32, format C:, or delete the MBR! They’re dangerous!

I’m a proponent of the theory that the weasel in the LHC is what opened the rift

I’d love to answer OP, but that description somehow made me forget everything I’ve ever eaten.

Yeah, I saw that synopsis under the knowyourmeme result lol. There’s always that one friend/relative. Kind of funny there’s never really been a phrase for it before.

Still, I like the thought of it meaning everyone has that one food they really like and will steal a bite if anyone gets it.

I think I’ve always equated them with the horrendous water shoes I remember as a kid. That, and the look just never said comfort to me. But I’ve felt some fomo in recent years lol

Every now and then I get the feeling there might be something about them. Are they like supremely comfortable? Everyone I see wearing them nowadays seems chill and makes it look like they’re comfy.

Either that or the country has fully devolved into Walmart as Idiocracy foretold.

“Call me Daddy”

I was wondering if “fanatic” ironically could have come from the French language. Looking at the etymology I’m now wondering if “fanum tax” stems from Latin.

Is this the genesis of British “humour”? Thomas, a Becket, even got the name in the time of Shakespeare.

Waiting for somebody to eviscerate me over British history, cause all I know is Monty Python.

Generally I agree. It feels kind of shoehorned in when desktop is your goal, like more of an afterthought or side effect of the overall focus.

The main thing I hang on to is the code-specified configuration. I never got into managing dotfiles with arch, but that could be a better solution for many people. Especially along with btrfs, numerous containerization options, and whatnot.

I went from Arch to NixOS, so I can offer a bit there.

You definitely won’t want to rely on it until you know a good amount and get comfortable. Things can be made to work, but knowing how to get it done is the main thing most of the time.

Regarding package availability, it’s just a matter of a few oddly esoteric incantations and version controlled code, usually. Binaries are another story but still possible, and python is a special case of that.

It has been an annoyance for me, but I’ve also learned a lot by getting things to work. If you use any niche python stuff you’re bound to run into something. A bunch is already packaged and works fine, though. Either way there’s a bit of extra nuance, which is more to learn.

You don’t have to start with NixOS and can feel it out using nix on any distro. It can be hard to tell if someone will vibe with it. All that said, it could be more than you’re looking to get into, but you can ease into it if you’re interested.

Being the change you want to see in the world. I like it.

4?? Also, the screenshot reminds me of hedgehog launch. Pulled it right out of the recesses of my memory.

I was like “but the other three are real words…”

Apparently diminutive is the only one that doesn’t trace its origin to the book. TIL! Funny how language works.

You nearly killed me with a damn meme. I can’t breathe lmao, jesits take the wheel
