No, the server gave a 502 instead of a JSON and Jerboa doesn’t handle that gracefully.

The cause is a 502 from lemmy.

Jerboa’s handling of that error is also terrible but that’s another issue.

Take it as an error, tell the user about it and then retry with exponential back-off.

Well, Lemmy shouldn’t 502 in the first place. That’s the root cause. The apps should handle that gracefully though, especially given how commonly Lemmy throws a 502.

I’d trust them to stop storing it but I don’t trust them to stop processing it.

Note that such a blocklist approach is not a good solution to actually block tracking.

Systemd (PID1) is not your boot manager, network deamon, resolver, user manager or ntp service.

Those are entirely independent deamons that happen to be developed under the systemd project umbrella but can be exchanged for equivalent components.
Tkey are gully optional.

In many cases, the systemd project’s one is one of the best choices though, especially when used with other systemd-developed components.
In some cases, there is no other viable choice because the systemd-* is just better and nobody wants to deal with something worse.

All programs should tell you where they store config files (utcc.utoronto.ca)

I wholeheartedly agree with this blog post. I believe someone on here yesterday was asking about config file locations and setting them manually. This is in the same vein. I can't tell you how many times a command line method for discovering the location of a config file would have saved me 30 minutes of googling.

Certainly not. Nothing should write to /usr/bin except for the package manager in FHS distros and some distros binary directories aren’t writable at all.

Note that there’s both the rolling unstable channel and a bi-annual stable release channel.

To get it out of the way first: There are no financial issues. There are more than enough funds to continue operations as they are for a sufficiently long time.

What is actually happening is that a long time sponsor has indicated that they (understandably) no longer want to foot the huge bill of hosting the entire archive of binary caches ($9000/mo). Finding a more sustainable setup is what the community is currently concerned with.
There is no risk of operations shutting down any time soon, the NixOS foundation has funds set aside to continue even this unsustainable setup for at least a year. We just want to be more efficient with our and others resources going forwards.

That’s what all this you might have heard of is about.

Btw, even if the binary cache were to go poof, we don’t technically need it. NixOS is a source-based distro like Gentoo and source hosting is not a concern. The binary cache is immensely helpful though which is why we’d obviously prefer to keep it.

Yes, AWS gracefully sponsored 12 months of our S3 bill which gives us even more time to enact change.

That’s just the short term resolution though, the Nix community is still looking into more sustainable long-term solutions.

Not 100% sure this device even has a chip. SatStat doesn’t show values for orientation; only for magnetic field which I heard Is used to emulate a compass but I’m really not sure.

Do you use a car sharing service or do you own a car? Because it sounds like with your usage pattern, the former might be cheaper.

I tried NixOS for a bit but it was very inconvenient in comparison and I felt like it was impossible to tinker with or understand if you weren’t good at Haskell.

You don’t need any haskell knowledge to configure a NixOS system. It’s mostly just researching the right options and setting the desired values. Pretty simple. For more advanced stuff like custom modules, functional programming experience helps a lot but that’s not necessary for installing packages and enabling services.

Documentation isn’t great but what it does have going for it is that it’s right in the place where you configure it: In the NixOS options. Wanna configure systemd-boot? Just search for it: search.nixos.org/options?channel=23.05&size=50&so…
It’s self-documenting.

No, nothing to be seen unfortunately.
