The dilemma between #Gentoo and #NixOS is this:

The most important value of #Gentoo is configuration/customization and reproducibility comes 2nd.

In case of NixOS those value are reversed. The most important to NixOS is ability to reproduce given setup.

Both of those systems will suit users that value control over their systems very highly (unlike, say, Ubuntu - where the most important value is convenience), but the tie-breaking is between what value out of those two should come 1st.

I created a tool that allows to import Fediverse posts to blogging frameworks (currently Racket Frog). So it allows to transition selected posts from micro-blogging to real blogging :P

I have nothing against people who make desktop apps as webapps as long as webkitgtk or qtwebengine is used. But why the hell would you use electron in our lord’s year 2023 when in addition to webkitgtk you have libs that use it underneath and ease the dev experience.

Using light theme in a sunny day feels a lot better than using a dark theme.

I use “ef-day” in #Emacs and “Solarized Light” in other IDEs and terminals.
