So crude, when you could use a butterfly.

e.g. have a gui installer

I assume you mean a GUI for editing configuration.nix? Because the initial NixOS install is GUI-based.

Many cakes have some sort of filling between flat layers and are therefore sandwiches.

Charlotte royale is a calzone, tho.

Also “doctor” means teacher. The specific term for someone who practices medicine is “physician”.

It’s funny, I just switched to pulseaudio hoping it would fix some issues I’ve been having with pipewire. It did not.

Edit: I’m not on Mint, though, so best of luck.

Well, not always: Plural ‘they’ is a borrowing from Old Norse ca. 1200 AD, and the earliest attestation of singular ‘they’ is about a century later.

But, yeah, you’d think 700 years of continuous use would be enough to make it uncontroversial…

It seems kind of disingenuous to compare enterprise support contracts for Linux to personal Windows licenses. Especially while also ignoring that you do pay for Windows, it’s just hidden in the cost of the device.

Though it is also true that Linux is gratis and Windows is not.

On the other side [Wayland] is buggy af.

I’ve been having the exact opposite problem since recently coming back to Linux after a long hiatus. For me, Wayland has been flawless, while anything x11 looks like somebody ran the screen through a shredder, discarded half the strips, and smooshed the rest back together.

I don’t know how to troubleshoot that. I don’t even know what to type in a search engine to get relevant results.

Never underestimate the bandwidth of a station wagon full of hard drives speeding down the highway.

I’ve been having a good time with Heart of the Machine, in which you play as a nascent AI figuring out how to survive in a sprawling cyberpunk city.

First OS on a computer I personally owned? Windows 98. First Linux distro was Source Mage.

If not counting ownership, then Apple IIs at school and then slightly later my family got an Amstrad that was primarily a DOS machine, but could also boot (by switching floppies several times) to some sort of GUI.

I know this is too late for you, but something like this happened to me recently, so I’m writing for the sake of anyone who might find this thread in the future.

In my case it was because the NixOS installer had booted up in legacy/BIOS mode, so grub was in BIOS mode, and it can’t boot a UEFI OS (e.g. Windows 10) from that state.

In fact I couldn’t get the NixOS installer to boot in EFI mode at all. Odd, as both Windows and other distros work fine. Actual installed NixOS also works, it’s just the installer that fails.

So what I did was to boot a different distro’s live medium (EndeavourOS, but it shouldn’t matter) in EFI mode and did a manual NixOS install from there.

It probably also would have worked to just switch grub to EFI mode in the config, except I had also failed to clock that the new SSD I was installing to had an MBR partition table, so I had to nuke the original install to make it gpt anyway.

tl;dr: osprobe can find OSes on other drives just fine; what it can’t do is find an EFI bootloader while in legacy mode.

That was actually Unix. Specifically the fsn file manager for IRIX.

There’s a Linux clone called fsv.

If q=√p then -q=√p also.

Or DOS Shell.

This is much prettier, though.

Shouldn’t the big ones be Durdcell and Durccell?

Also: Dur9vcell.

As far as any of those sites are concerned, I was born January first, [the earliest year they allow].
