Home Manager on a NixOS flake, it’s a rabbit hole but I’ve been loving it since last week!

PsyconicX , to reddit in Nuking old Reddit accounts

Exactly the same thing, but with Boost on Android. Such a shame…

@theodore Midnight Commander

theodore OP ,

Any spesific reason on choosing it?

@skyportradio@mastodon.social avatar

@theodore I've always used it I guess, back to Solaris, FreeBSD days, it does everything inc FTP

theodore OP ,

Nice. Will try it

Yep, midnight commander is hands down the best file manager I’ve ever used.

sunbeam60 ,

With great respect, and speaking as someone who has used both very extensively, I would argue Total Commander (on Windows) has got the upper hand of all those traditional NC clones.

Never been a fan of terminal file managers, I just use exa and cd. Also z for directory jumping.

Home manager on NixOS and stored all config files in a Git repo

Apart from those little tools running in the background that get their own little “How to install and configure X” file, I don’t keep a list. I just install things as I need them, copying back config files from a backup. It’s less annoying and time consuming than one might expect and keeps the system slim by not installing what I never use anyway.

TheButtonJustSpins , to linux in What portable utilities do you carry with you.

I used to carry Tails around on a tiny USB drive in case I wanted to do something on an untrusted machine, but a) the USB device I chose got stupidly hot, and b) I never actually needed to use it since I carry a smartphone everywhere, so I stopped.

Syrup , (edited ) to gaming in Choose Four Consoles to Have the Largest Selection of Games

1 - Get Recalbox on a GPi Case 2 and you’ll have access to just about every system from before 2000 (including support for commodore and other similar systems). It can handle PSP games as well, but not PS2 or NDS. There are other cases available for a raspberry pi system, but I recommend the GPi Case 2 because you can play it “docked” and handheld. I recommend Recalbox since it already has a lot of support for the GPi case built into it, but if you’re tech-savvy you may prefer Lakka for its flexibility. You may be able to get more modern emulators to run on the lakka as well.

2 - Gaming PC with Lakka, Citra, or whatever other emulators you’d like. And unless you’re playing a lot of super new games, you don’t need anything fancy- you could probably just throw windows 7 on a $100 refurbished business PC and run just about any game from 2010 or earlier, TBH.

**3 - Wii or Wii U. **I personally find emulation of these (specifically with a wii-mote) to be a bit finicky. If you don’t use a Wii, you can substitute your personal console of choice for this one.

4 - Oculus Quest- though I’m not sure if it counts since you aren’t connecting to a TV. This isn’t the best VR headset but it is the cheapest. It has a good library of standalone games, and for anything else you can use airlink or the virtual desktop to run games off of a VR-ready PC (If you went with one that was beefy for #2). The quest has a lot of modding support through the sidequest. The main concern with this is that you need a phone to set up a Quest when you buy it/after a factory reset. So if Facebook goes under or a meteor hits silicon valley, this could conceivably turn into a fancy paperweight. To my knowledge, nobody has cracked the Quest to skip over this step. If historical preservation is more important to you than money, I would recommend choosing literally any other VR headset because of the setup thing.

How could anything be simpler than skyrims magic?

rikudou ,

Witcher magic, you literally have access to exactly five “spells”.

bertmacho , to linux in What portable utilities do you carry with you.

I just have github.com/leahneukirchen/hrmpf because I want the zfs modules available. Everything I need is there

I see a wider variety of active topics by sorting All by New Comments.

gammasfor ,

Hmm I might need to try that with the front-page. I had noticed it seemed to just be the same topics daily.

Ignacio , (edited ) to nostupidquestions in If you represent yourself in court, can you call yourself as a witness?

I couldn't find any information about calling yourself in court as witness while you're being represented by yourself. The best I could find is this information about self representation.

zitronen , to asklemmy in how did military commanders in olden times send instructions across hundreds of miles without concern of forgery or interception?
@zitronen@feddit.de avatar

Why do you assume, they had no such concern? There were seals to ensure authenticity and avoid man in the middle attacks. There were encoded messages, smoke, flags, light and sound signals. Trusted couriers, pigeons, etc …

Gorilladrums , to nostupidquestions in Data privacy: how to counter the "I have nothing to hide" argument?

Turn it on them. Ask them to give up something private in front of you like their phone or wallet. Hey, if they have nothing to hide then they shouldn’t worry… But they will.
