  • Bash 5.3 Released With Many Improvements

  • Having all your configuration hidden in ~/.config/, so you can have ~ all to yourself is nice, IMO. Just having a handful of folders (including hidden ones) makes things a little more readable.

    Fan of Flatpaks ...or Not?

  • What's a flatpak? Is that like a worse NixOS package?

  • When did you go full Linux nerd?

    Jump

  • Uh, just yesterday. Installed NixOS (with KDE) because I learned Debian at work, but am really missing the ability to track what I've installed via configuration. I like the idea of dotfiles in a repo, but want a bit more control like that for my OS.

    Context: I'm a data engineer that writes Python. Python has pyproject.toml files (toml ~= ini files) where you can specify which libraries you want to use, defining which version you minimally, maximally, or just specifically want. And I wished that setup existed for Debian as well, but it doesn't. So after searching I found that NixOS is pretty much the closest thing. Windows 10 is EOL soon enough, so might as well switch beforehand and not wait until the last second.

  • Just...one...more...thing

  • (Seriously what would you even have multiple computers do.)

    Setup k3s (pronounces "kubes") on each computer as a node. Run scalable software - a website, database, some LDAP setup for users, maybe.

    Check out /c/selfhosted@lemmy.world for inspiration :D

    WHAT THE FUCK IS "POLLUTION"!?

    including large volumes of unburned methane

    Ooooh. Yeah, that's bad. Methane is a pretty bad greenhouse gas.

  • I like LLMs. Instead of making a racket, I just use them, which may make it seem like everyone on Lemmy hates LLMs.

  • Neither Curzon or Jadzia needed to fly an ugly flag to be themselves :)

  • Apple just proved AI "reasoning" models like Claude, DeepSeek-R1, and o3-mini don't actually reason at all. They just memorize patterns really well.

    Jump

  • OK, and? A car doesn't run like a horse either, yet they are still very useful.

    I'm fine with the distinction between human reasoning and LLM "reasoning".

    Weird how I said "Musk is using his money to manipulate people and he’s an asshole for that", and you completely ignored it...

  • When she didn’t sign the NDA, the payments were reportedly slashed, and eventually cut again to $20,000 a month.

    Oh no! Only 20,000 dollahs!? That poor woman must now be living on water and bread for the rest of her life!

    Listen, I get it - Musk is using his money to manipulate people and he's an asshole for that, but the cry story is just bleh.
