If you are just using it as your single computers config, flakes are simpler than not using flakes. And adding multiple inputs becomes easy.

The main reason flakes are confusing is because people who don't know what they are explain them wrong. See here instead https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JCeYq72Sko0

Is it because of the Mel Gibson cosplay?

I dont think reading Asimov would help for most people. I think most people will just not get the point of anything unless you spell it out

People not getting the message is the default I think, for everything, like the song Mother knows best from Disneys Tangled, how many mothers say, see mother knows best

Vim user here, what is that? Like a konami code?

Install comma, and run commands without installing

NixOS user here. This doesn't come out of the box, but I append a comma before the command I want to run without installing, I can run the command without installing.

Yes it's technically downloaded (if not cached there already) in the nix store, but this is (optionally automatically) cleaned up regularly, for store items that doesn't have a generation (profile, think version of your configuration) that depends on it.

Out the box, you can run a command that opens a shell up with the packages you specify, but comma uses a database to know the executeable names for packages (you get to pick if multiple matches), similar to the command not found function in other distros.

Sorry for hijacking your comment, just wanted to say something cool about a cool distro, which isn't suitable for everyone, but I hope that can improve in the future because nixos is niceos

Yeah sadly she counts as a royal, but the civilian in the picture is her sister in laws son pre marriage into the royal family. So technically not a royal, but might as well be.

Most people in Norway like the king and the queen, and the crown Prince and the crown princess, and their children (together), they used to like this guy too before he got caught doing all this illegal shit

Wife stops me when I managed to be productive for the first time in two months... Sorry babe, if I'm stopping doing this to help you now, I'm not going to be able to continue this task for at least 3 months

Do you follow the suggested service program?

 

I hope this fluff post will be allowed if I actually share some facts about DnD and etymology

Balders Gate is named after the Norse god Baldr/Balder/Baldur

Baldur in DnD is named after a legendary explorer Baldurian from Faerûn, name obviously inspired by the norse god's name.

The word Gate means street in Norwegian, as well in Swedish/Danish/Icelandish but its spelled differently in those languages

The word Gate in English is a cognate with the word Gate in Norwegian, meaning they stem from the same root word, incidentally they are also spelled the same way today, which is not a requirement to be a cognate, Gate in English is also a cognate with the word for street in other nordic languages even though they spell it differently.

Swedish still spell it the same as in Old Norse, Gata, which at the that point meant path, road, or way, which is how it is used in current day nordic languages, but you can see how the English word Gate is now used for an entrance with a door of some kind. Other English definitions for the word gate, like a manner of walking or even a path, among others also stem from the same root word.
