My #NixOS #setup. Even when I #ported it once to #another #machine, I #forgot to add the #user #password. So I kind of went into a #ghost user #session. All i did is #reboot and chose previous #generation corrected my #config and that's all. No need for #backup, #rescue #disk etc. I corrected my configs, now it's truly portable. All my setup is #rock #solid #stable and never #broke it though I use a lot of #unstable #packages. #Nix and #NixOS are just 🔥 ❤️

There are all too often complaints about #Debian: "why does it have such old packages". There is a really lovely property of properly maintained stable distribution. The only changes made are to make it more stable and more secure, e.g. targeted bug fixes only. New bugs come with new features, or even more general, new bugs come with new code. So if a release of software is already addressing the need, then new features are just adding more risk of problems

One thing about running Debian Trixie (i.e. testing)... running 'apt update && apt upgrade' every day or two gives lists of things to update more like a typical Arch Linux day than it does Debian stable. LOL S'all good, man.

“All the uncertainty around #trade policy,…around some of the things that the Dept of Govt Efficiency [#DOGE] is doing, I think will have a chilling effect…,” Strain added.

🚨 #Trump took office last month at a time of #stable economic #growth & easing #inflation.

…But economists have warned that his plans to enact sweeping #tariffs could cause #prices to rise & trigger trade wars that would weigh on growth. There are early indications that those worries were valid.

Follow-up:

- Yes, the recommendation is to follow a specific release, to avoid surprises, and I'll probably stick to that again, but also:

- Installing apticron on my (personal/pet) servers now to try and stay on top of things, and

- I've added debian.org/News/news to my feedreader of choice (NetNewsWire) to hear about the bigger changes/releases

Thanks to @dashdsrdash for the back and forth on that. 🙂

Also in the back of the barn, the stables, with space for two large animals. I'm not sure what was kept there last, looks like cow dung. There used to be horses at some point, too.

When the old man gave us the tour, he pointed at the piles of compacted dung and praised its value as fertilizer. What a salesman (he's right though).
