I have them at home and as such don‘t need to spend money on them.

Follow up question: Do I need a separate CPU cooler, or is the boxed Wraith enough? And how loud is it? I can’t really find info on that.

The NAS drives are here because they are from an old NAS which only uses a cheap dual-core Intel, has 2G of RAM, and boots from eMMC. So anything would be an upgrade…

Nix is absolutely not just for CI, the idea is to use it locally as well, so the CI runs in the same environment.

Note that any user listed in nix.settings.trusted-users can place arbitrary directories into the Nix store, and can choose the store key.

I‘d have to rewatch the video, but he used Pop!_OS (with COSMIC) at first, and iirc he switched midway because it was so broken. Elijah used Bazzite, and Luke used CachyOS.

LTT did another Linux challenge recently, and this time their verdict was that they‘d all be staying on Linux for their personal PCs (with FakeLinus dual booting Windows, because he needs software there for his job). They did also say that most of their videos will still show Windows, as that is still the primary target of the manufacturers that send them the press kits.

I personally use a TPM with Measured Boot (so it doesn‘t give the key to external disks), and have a YubiKey and password as fallback options.

Try deleting storage for all Reddit domains, that fixes it for a bit.

“Run Level 2 because Level 1 is not permitted to fix anything.” “You don’t want to run Level 4”

It stores one of the keys to my LUKS volume.

I don’t think so, or why would it happen to be sorted exactly by length? And systemd-vconsole-setup.service definitely starts before NetworkManager-wait-online.service…

I do actually use the TPM for disk encryption and Measured Boot, and can’t simply disable it.

I always browsed Reddit without logging in, created an account once, and deleted it hours later because the algorithmic feed was too much filtering for me. I want to click on posts as a one-off without permanently altering the way the platform sees me. Now I can‘t browse Reddit anymore, which gave me the final push over to Lemmy. It‘s tragic how much collective knowledge we lost though, as the „You scrolled too much!“ tracking/blocking also applies to search results.
