CLI Editors with Distrobox?
How do you all handle this? I’m going to start poking around with NixOS but anticipate Python dev to be impossible on the base OS, so curious what sorts of options y’all use when connecting your configured editor to a container- e.g. if I have Neovim configured in my host, is it better to re-set-up Neovim again with the same...

[Solved!] Remap a key? (Windows 10)
I used to have one of those gaming keyboards that lets you reprogram any key - I’m back to just a standard keyboard, but this seems like the kind of thing a modern computer should be able to do without a “gaming” peripheral....
When a Torrent disappears from 1337x, how do you find out what happened?
Yesterday there was a controversial movie torrent that was getting 1000s of downloads and was on the “popular this week” page, and today it’s just gone. I went to the uploader’s account page and it’s not there either. Just like it never existed....

Filtered out posts about that guy...
I know this is old news for most of us, but it’s something I had just forgotten to get around too. Filtered out Elon musk and X posts. I don’t care about any of it, and tired of seeing every seemingly 5th posts being about it....
Does anyone actually use bathroom bluetooth speakers?
Seems pointless and inconvenient for me as they usually seem to be poor quality, and can you really listen to music in the shower, and are you showering long enough to benefit from it?...
I think trump might win, and it's due to shitty memory and DND
I was playing DnD with my friends, but unfortunately we are retarded get distracted easy so the whole game we would move nothing....
Software to boost clock and manage fans?
I use arch btw
Arch or NixOS?
I’ve been here a week ago already asking if Arch would be fine for a laptop used for university, as stability is a notable factor in that and I’m already using EndeavourOS at home, but now I’m curious about something else too - what about Arch vs NixOS?...
Is it considered ableism to treat someone unfairly with regard to their health condition(s) even if they're not a recognised disability?
Or what would that be called? Pretty much the same things that would usually be considered ableism, but when there’s not a recognised disability involved but just health issue/s (which could be “disabling”)....
Which distro/image to use for distrobox where you just want to install tools?
The immutable state of distros like fedora silerblue and opensuse microos leads to the use of distrobox....
