Fairphone is barely profitable with the current ones. Forget they can Risk making a niche-Product

makes it kinda sound like a false Flag.

But then again, ISIS took credit for it.

Ansible is more like a bash script, NixOS is a Config File

If i remove a line from Ansible, nothing happens.

If i remove a Line from my NixOS Config, it resets that Setting to its Default / uninstalls the Package / whatever.

• You can always be sure that your NixOS is exactly like in the Config, since most of the OS is Read-Only. You can basically debug your entire OS in the Config Files.
• some other Comfort Features. Better Readability of NixOS Configs, better integration, and obviously the nixpkgs package manager which is just chefs kiss

Edit: sorry, didn't see the last part.

The difference between Nix and NixOS:

Nix refers to the Nix Packege Manager. Its Packages are called Nixpkgs

Nixpkgs are a new way to package packages without dependencies overwriting each other. Each package gets a uuid. So if one package needs dependency-x version 1.2 and another needs version 3.5, you can have both installed at the same time, since they're installed in folders like "hansfhanazavdialavsislbajsknsvsjsksbhalvsja-dependency-x-1.2" instead of both trying to install into /etc/dependencyx (i know they don't belong into /etc, this is for demonstration purposes)

This is pretty cool and solves the dependency-hells you otherwise deal with. Many tout this as the real alternative Solution to Snaps and Flatpaks, although i personally don't see it that way since i think we need to move towards a sandboxed package-format and nixpkgs isn't that. So i personally use nixpkgs for system-applications and install user-applications via flatpak.

Then there's NixOS:

NixOS isn't a Fork of any Distro. Those madlads decided to take the nixpkgs and the Linux Kernel and just create a new Distro from thin air. And it somehow worked.

NixOS uses the Nix-Daemon to read your configuration, install your packages, link them (from /nix/hwghaajvshkavahakaj-bash to /etc/bin/bash etc) and to configure your System (i.e. what ssh keys are allowed to connect)

This way NixOS has become a declarative Distro on top of the Nix Package Manager

As someone who's using it daily:

It's pretty cool. But it's not a "best" solution. It, like anything, has upsides and downsides.

So let me quickly summarize NixOS for you:

you will have to learn new how to configure your system. You can't go into your Settings App anymore (well, you still can, but then you could just stay on Ubuntu, that's the whole Point of NixOS) but instead you'll have a file in /etc/nixos/configuration.nix everything System goes into that Config File. Then you can also use home-manager to customize your user. i.e. you want to use a special ssh setting. Home-Manager is (in my opinion) only useful if you have multiple Computers and sync your Config Files between them (in my case via Git) as any change made on one Computer will be synced to the other.

so you have a lot more effort upfront. You have to relearn how to do stuff and you have to use a complicated File instead of a simple GUI.

BUT:

Once you did that effort, it is done. forever. You can just copy that Config file anywhere and you're back on the exactly same system. Have two Computers and want to sync them? NixOS is the absolute best Option for that imo.

Spinning up a lot of Servers/VMs that you want to be pre-configured and ready for use? NixOS. Servers you always want the same way? NixOS. you can also already declare public keys you use for SSH Authentications.

so, you see, NixOS isn't for everyone. It certainly is for me, but if you only ever use one Computer and prefer GUIs, stay away.

it was veery easy to burn down

Eminem sucks

That guy has my utmost respect.

To admit he was wrong and change his worldview (quire literally) when confronted with evidence, this is not easy. Mad respect.

you can just use noscript to block javascript

GrapheneOS also works somewhat.

i actually managed to somewhat break it. But a rollback just immediately fixed it again.

The Police System is heavily federalized. Which means they are all vastly dofferent from eachother.

His seems to be a pretty proffessional and good one.

It's an Issue known on Github.

TLDR: The Website is supposed to give you a Value as a Integer. However, some Auth-Backends used by some Websites give the Value as a String instead. Bitwarden doesn't parse the String for security Reasons and so the signup fails. We can't really do anything except wait for websites to fix the Bug.

It's really not the Investors. Boeing had Investors before and it all went fine. It's the McDonnel Douglas leadership that took over that ruined it.

Relevant and very interesting Analysis I'll leave here.

I want one. Where can I buy one?

Yeah, of course google didn't physically block anything, But you had multiple visions diverging and that harmed progress.

, and which would that be?

The enthusiasts faction running the servers.

It sounds paradoxical, but that's exactly what i meant.

There were multiple authorities with different ideas which blocked developement. As soon as there was only one Authority left, developement sped up rapidly.
