There are multiple competent LSP implementation for nix so hopefully that's not the blocker! Nix has rough to pick up, but has a comfort to it once you broach it.

Do note you can not set the timezone in config and set it at runtime. Useful if you move around a lot.

Yeah. I don't know what people want or expect. They might just have to learn something new or admit those crazy Linux people were on to something. Folks, no amount of SO threads is going to make MS reverse course. So...?

I have unprotected sex all the time. I'm on prep. Maybe if I was on semaglutide I could eat carbs with out turning into a monster that wants to eat every cinnamon roll in existence. Idk.

It's amazing how quiet I can make the inner food voice if I fast and try to eat keto. More amazing is how fast a single day or two of carb listing utterly ruins it. I'm in the middle of a two day fast right now to try and get rese

How though? We raise corporate taxes on every corporation? We somehow target those with a certain percentage of employees on government subsidies?

Lol, wow , I'd put 90% of my net worth into a bet against this take if I could. I don't even know where to start, gestures around, reality is here, now.

I promise that for every one of these posts from me, I suppress the urge multiple other times. But it would be amazing to see things like this published as a Nix flake instead of some debian image chucked over the wall. Seeing the flake wou

It's like when that first Motorola came out with a locked bootloader, or maybe the second one, I think the first was trivially crackable. I remember that year, all of the people claiming it was just a matter of time. And nowadays, amon

Nooo, then what will HN do with the multiple-times-a-week and hundreds of comments a month complaints about proprietary systems run by mega tech corps? Seriously I think there were FOUR different "fix"-win11 tools on the frontpage

by k8svet 2y ago
Because HN loves to complain about this, I get to repeat it as always. Enroll a real 2fa (totp, security key, passkey) on your account and you will not face any of these issues. There's a reason they do this for insecure accounts and

Lol and I got some pushback here for saying Apple ID was not a serious product and that I wouldn't trust Apple to use Apple Pay even if they let me as a lowly Android user. I mean, ffs, the only 2fa option for an Apple ID is SMS auth.

Uh, I not implying or saying anything about who has the power. My comment is kinda hard to read in any other way than directed at the people who chose to intimately tie their product up with a proprietary price-gouging, lock-in platform .

Why is it so hard time for some of this site to understand that some of us are principled when it comes to choosing technologies? Or you know, actually learned from past trauma and make choice to avoid getting burned in the future.

I'm saying it's shoddy, and scammy, and I can't believe anyone would lift a finger to defend this type of product, engineering, or actively training people to get phished. Hope that clarifies.
