it has loads of features that would require extensions or plugins in bash, like autocomplete, abbreviations, or fancy prompts, except they all work out of the box and with minimal configuration and behave intuitively
fish is also a much nicer language to write scripts in than bash
totally painless to transition, your bash skills are all transferable
I work with Zendesk and this doesn’t surprise me at all - the product is janky and they’re much more interested in sales and squeezing a few more $$s from their clients than improving it or fixing issues
you should probably use a VPN if you’re uploading because it’s trivial for law enforcement to track - there’s no Onion routing or anything like that, and anyone can register and search
but for downloading / leeching I wouldn’t be as worried because very generally speaking people aren’t harassed for downloading, only sharing
yep came here to say NixOS - once I was used to it, the advantages for programming are immense. I commit my shell.nix to Git and use Lorri to automagically install the right environment tools and it feels magical being able to work on multiple machines and never encounter dependency oddness
Same with beer. Fortunately there’s a great website at https://barnivore.com which lists alcoholic drinks from tonnes of manufacturers and details their vegan-or-not-ness. An invaluable resource for veegs who like booze.
For the unaware, Navidrome is a very slick and fast Subsonic-compatible music streaming server, which works excellently with large libraries. I’ve tried a bunch of options for streaming my music files over my local network and Navidrome has been by far the nicest. I use it with Tailscale and the Substreamer client on my iPhone so I can play my tunes when out and about.
I have a few personal domains registered with Njalla and have for years with no issues. They're not hosting anything shadier than a Jellyfin login (on a non-Njalla server) - and so I'm not worried about getting denied access. And I like not having my real details in the WHOIS.

my wife has endured so much waffle about how great nixos is
i feel bad for her

I use Nextcloud to sync a huge music collection and it works great - I was kinda surprised
I run it on an underpowered NUC and it behaves beautifully

it isn’t so loud that other people would notice, i don’t think - and usually just a bit of readjustment of my position is enough to unblock the vents
don’t let me dissuade you from buying the best laptop i’ve owned!
the art in question was not damaged
if i have it on a table, it’s fine, mostly silent. if i have it on my lap blocking the vents then it can get noisier and hotter pretty fast
I run NixOS on my Ryzen Framework 13 and it works flawlessly, including fingerprint reader. I run KDE now but I’ve also used Gnome with no issues.
I used this nixos-hardware module for some of the fancier hardware tweaks I don’t really understand: https://github.com/NixOS/nixos-hardware
as the inverse to this, I like to be reminded how much Windows sucks so I don’t feel any desire to reinstall it

my LG TV was up to date but I still managed to root it just recently, via this method: https://github.com/throwaway96/dejavuln-autoroot
it's well worth it - rebinding the remote alone is sweet AF, plus the ad-free and sponsor-blocking YouTube is great
