I have no experience with HPC clusters, just dropping in to contribute my opinions on the NixOS stuff.

I won’t be actively maintaining the cluster at all times and find it nice that if someone needs some software I can point them to the configuration and tell them to modify it and then just update the system.

This sounds good in theory, but in practice few people will have the know-how or patience to make changes to your config.

I read that NixOs can have problems with cuda drivers and custom compiled software, which would definitely be a deal breaker.

NixOS is very flexible and you can certainly bake custom compiled software into the builds, but expect a steep learning curve.

Ich meine wenigstens fragen sie. Aber warum überhaupt fragen, wenn nicht rechtskonform?

If you want to learn a new tool, look at Ansible. If you just want to get the job done, make a list of the packages you need and track your dotfiles.

I love NixOS but I wouldn't commend it to people who are at a point in their sysadmin trajectory where they haven't heard of Ansible. (It's not just that Nix has a learning curve, it's that you're seriously screwed if you can't tell the difference between a Nix problem and a regular package / kernel issue.)

OP, use Ansible.

In Firefox, under privacy settings, activate DNS over HTTPS (DoH). The default DNS (CloudFlare) should work, but I prefer the custom setting https://dns.quad9.net/dns-query

I wish I could set DNS settings per browser

This is extremely achievable

kurze frage wie heißt dieses maimai format, also wonach muss ich suchen

Absolutely! I'll give you an example. In the NixOS config for my desktop I have the lines:

{
  environment.systemPackages = with pkgs; [
    firefox
    ...
  ];
}

So Firefox is installed every time I build a system with this config. This is just like apt-get install firefox in that very user can use it after installation. The config lives in the respective user's dotfiles (.config/mozilla/firefox) and will of course survive reboots.

What I chose to do additionally (but this is in no way required!) is a home-manager config for my main account with the lines:

{
  programs.firefox = {
    enable = true;
    policies = {
      DisableFirefoxAccounts = true;
      DisablePocket = true;
      DisableTelemetry = true;
      DownloadDirectory = "${config.home.homeDirectory}/tmp";
      OfferToSaveLogins = false;
      ...
  }
  ...
}

This is a declarative configuration that basically handles my dotfiles (profiles, extensions, themes, ...) for me. I think you have the impression that this is mandatory, but it is really a very specific behavior through the home-manager module, but you can absolutely run NixOS without it.

From the article:

But most people might not realise that TikTok holds data about them even if they have never used the social media platform.

Websites that use pixels send data about every single visitor, so it doesn't matter if you don't have a TikTok account.

I’m not the type to put my dotfiles in git, though.

That's what I'm saying, you don't have to! Just install the package (like neovim or whatever) through NixOS and it will use your ad-hoc dotfiles like it would on any other distro. For a lot of stuff you can make use of declarative NixOS options (programs.neovim = { ... };), but you don't have to, except for really basic system stuff like networking I guess.

Pre-compiled, non-system binaries.

Gotcha. There's several ways do do this on NixOS (steam-run works like a charm!), but I'll concede that there's an extra step involved here that you don't have to do on other distros.

That, and seeing talk about how great Nix is but also people having trouble later on too (major updates? bleeding edge woes?).

There's a learning curve for sure, but I haven't looked back or experienced any major issues (where I hadn't shot myself in the foot) since 22.11.

Give NixOS another look. It's no problem to run a declarative system as a base, and plain old dotfiles on top if you want, especially for user stuff. Not sure what you mean by "non-packaged executables" exactly, but I don't see how NixOS would give you a disadvantage here. Heoric works fine as a Steam alterntative.

Every couple of years I give KDE Plasma a spin, and I've found it disappointing every time. Nothing terrible, just a lot of tiny bugs and inconveniences. I find it strange that it gets recommended as a beginner DE so often just because the layout resembles Windows a bit more. Gnome is so much more consistent and aesthetically pleasing... not that I use it, but it's always my strong recommendation for beginners.

Good luck on your Linux journey!

I regularly make a version with king oyster mushrooms, highly recommended!

I can't say I share the experience, my apartment has stayed pretty much the same in the 15 years. But then again, my apartment complex doesn't have a gym or an elevator, and I'm not in the habit of judging my neighbors.

Yes, it's very difficult to recognize young mushrooms. I think it's a really nice way to think of mushrooms as mutable living things, and learning to recognize them at different points in their lifecycle (rather than comparing them to a random snapshot) is a lot of fun.

Is there a way to tell if a mushroom has fully formed?

For me it has been helpful to cut them open lengthwise to understand how the cap takes shape and opens up, rings are formed etc.

That said, some type of Armillaria seems like a plausible guess to me from the pictures.

Are you asking for second opinions? It's really difficult to say from these pictures. Did you take a picture of the older ones?

In my experience, it's all about grind size. If your target brew time results in too bitter a brew, I don't see how you would avoid a shorter brew time for these beans. If it's hard to hit the brew time you are aiming for, you might have success with another grinder. It shouldn't be necessary to touch brew ratio and temperature unless you're really fine-tuning taste.
