Learning nix might be worth it on a server.

Then update after 5 years 🤷🏻‍♂️

It only matters if you want support after 5 years. Just upgrade to a new release if you don’t need 10 years. If that’s a hassle, get the free subscription for 5 machines and you get 10 years.

Seems reasonable!

Which seems completely fair. This is a silly article and too many comments here aren’t understanding this.

If a business wants 10 years of support then yeah they should pay as it’s cheaper than upgrading.

For personal use just goddamn update after 5 years geeze lol.

Edit: this person’s blog post just misunderstands the situation. See here for actual release info and when ESM starts for each release. 5 years standard as of 24.04.

And you can get the extra 5 years for free anyway with a free subscription for up to 5 machines.

Works fine for me. iPhone 12 on 17.3

Whyy

This reply hurts my brain …

Not making an app is caring? It’s not worth it to put the effort in. Small market.

develops most things in notepad 😬

Nah it’s a cultural thing. Burgers done to not well done is common in the US. It definitely isn’t in Canada. They’re almost always well done.

First time in the U.S. being asked how I like my burger was actually confusing to me.

Jellyfin really is free :p

But then you can’t do that Home Alone kid face!

;)

Yup, agreed

You can integrate this with Bitwarden to auto generate email aliases too

Are you a normie if you’re using Linux though? (I’m on Silverblue…. Not a normie)

I’d also suggest Tailscale, it’s how I access my Synology away from home.

I’ve setup wireguard before but… Tailscale is so damn easy. And no need to open ports!

That’s a lot of dead boomers in a few days …

Also keeps your base system clean if you uninstall (big reason why docker is so popular on servers). Can create custom environments for a project then just delete everything when you’re done.

Also very useful on immutable distros like Fedora Silverblue (all my command line programs and some gui programs are in a distrobox container, exported to the host so they are just there like normal).

The Distrobox assemble command allows you to install programs from a file and automatically export (unfortunately there’s some bugs I hope are fixed soon). So things can be declarative like nixos.
