The 'code' tag here does not respect newlines, I tried to fix it but this is the best I could do:

`{ description = “home flake”;

 inputs = {     nixpkgs.url = “github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable”;

 home-manager.url = “github:nix-community/home-manager/master”;

 home-manager.inputs.nixpkgs.follows = “nixpkgs”;

 nixpkgs-stable.url = “github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-23.11”;

  # nixgl.url = “github:guibou/nixGL”;

};

outputs =     {

   self,

   nixpkgs,

   nixpkgs-stable,

   home-manager,

   # nixgl,

   …

 }

@inputs:

 let

   system = “x86_64-linux”;

   pkgs = import nixpkgs {

     system = system;

     config = {

       allowUnfree = true;

     };

   };

   pkgsStable = import nixpkgs-stable {

     system = system;

     config = {

       allowUnfree = true;

     };

   };

 in     {

   homeConfigurations = {

     shareni = home-manager.lib.homeManagerConfiguration {

       inherit pkgs;

       modules = [ ./home.nix ];

       extraSpecialArgs = {

         inherit inputs;

         inherit system;

          kmonad = pkgsStable.kmonad;

       };

     };

   };

 }; 

}`

Russia's frozen assets are kind of like a bribe - we're saying "hey Russia, if you stop the war then all of these assets are yours to use!"

If you spend them on anything then Russia has less incentive to seek peace. It's game-theory.

By the way, this is why we haven't tried to blow up Russia's oil - the point of an embargo is that we can offer to lift it if Russia leaves Ukraine, but if Russia has no oil to export then we have nothing to embargo and thus no embargo to lift - so Russia has less to lose by keeping on in Ukraine. We're trying to make oil as unprofitable as possible (ideally with Russia taking a loss on each barrel of oil shipped, but not enough of a loss that they choose to shut down their oil wells).

Wayland isn't a new protocol - it was first released in 2008, FIFTEEEN years ago.

"No brand tie-ins" refers to Fortnite, which has e.g. Goku kamehamehas and stuff. I don't play Fortnite, but content is content so I imagine at least some people would like it.

Perhaps a better example might be new weapons in TF2, like the Diamondback (from Deus Ex Human Revolution) or the Conniver's Kunai (Shogun: Total War). Which, to be fair, are extremely unpopular weapons with some people, but that's Valve's fault for thinking spies should get the ability to two-shot a soldier from across the map if they manage to sap a teleporter.

Half of those flatlaks also will not follow my system theme and their GUI looks broken or out of place.

This always struck me as weird: the entire point of flatpak is to be isolated and not integrate into your system, why would you expect it to integrate with your theme?

I know they try anyway, but it just seems like a conceptual problem to me. They want to solve packaging by pretending it doesn't exist.
