Itโ€™s Monday afternoon. Iโ€™m only just now putting on the episode of Doctor Who that came out Saturday morning.

No one should use NixOS.

No, not because it is bad and there are better ways.

But it lets you declare how you want the OS to be man, like a vibe.

and honestly humanity isn't ready for this.

This has nothing to do with configuring my servers networking and then spending an hour understanding how to connect to it.

sigh when you shut down your server so people can play with your electrical supply and you try doing a git push to said server

What if Frankie had it wrong?

Maybe they misheard and it was Gnome?

"On my way home, welcome to the pleasure Gnome"

"PLLLEEEEEEEEEASURE GNOME"

Also points if you remember @stilgherrian's ~2007 edict videos with said Gnome.

Anyway Welcome to Monday morning job hunting with Jono.

( For programming not for insights into my mind, unless they pay the same )

@astrid naaaaaaa, we just had 70s music and alcohol when I was young, it was a simpler time, or maybe I was just a young bogan growing up in New Zealand

Things I teach my kids:

โ€ข โ€œNoโ€ is a complete sentence.
โ€ข If youโ€™re not having a good time you can leave.
โ€ข Never make yourself smaller just to make other people more comfortable.
โ€ข Itโ€™s okay not to be okay.
โ€ข Donโ€™t take criticism from someone you wouldnโ€™t take advice from.
โ€ข Other peopleโ€™s opinions of you are none of your business.
โ€ข Speak as kindly to yourself as you would speak to others.
โ€ข Be your own greatest cheerleader, always.

Itโ€™s never too late to learn these things.

Help your elderly idiot folks, how can I find the device file for one of my network cards?

Either I have this podman option reversed or everything hates me.

I think I can hear it from upstairs.

@puffnfresh have you been paying attention to the Nix community?

Are you still Nixing?

@jonoabroad@mastodon.nz avatar

@puffnfresh cheers, I found out there was something, but wasn't sure if I could be bothered digging into it.

figured you would have the concise view of it, thank you :)
