a Kendrick fan@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Installing Guix as a Complete GNU/Linux System - System Crafters1·2 months agopersonally I like Arch first and foremost because I can (and do) have a local repo by rsyncing a rotation of mirrors couple of times a week.
Are these mirrors for prebuilt packages? If not, you should be able to pull from other channels, create your own channel and include all your packages while building them locally.

a Kendrick fan@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Installing Guix as a Complete GNU/Linux System - System Crafters0·2 months agoLet’s say I’m working on a project that requires Go, Node, maybe some C library, and GNU Make. Seems like I would be able to use
guix shell
for this, right? Great.Iirc guix shell is for one off package or programs you want to test, say you want to quickly format a drive to exfat or so, when you exit the sub-shell, the installed packages are discarded
guix shell containers would work best for your scenario but I have little experience with them
Size and gnome/GTK dependencies are main reasons why I don’t use Flatpaks (I have nothing against gnome though, it just pulls in too much and KDE is worse in this regards, which is why I use Sway and River)

a Kendrick fan@lemmy.mlto Linux@lemmy.ml•Three Years of Nix and NixOS: The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly2·2 months agoI absolutely hate the language
Check out Guix_System_Distribution, it’s just like NixOS but uses a Scheme dialect which is a better language.

Linux market share in 2024 increased more than 40% relative to 5.1% of all users.4·2 months agoSo, Linux doesn’t have a general icon and ChromeOS’s icon isn’t used, what could be an ideal icon/logo for the Linux Kernel, I wonder?
WhatsApp recently pulled support for some older iOS versions and devices, a lot of ppl threw them away and got Androids instead(as they should), I wonder if that’s related to iOS’s decrease.
Please do so, it’ll be very useful

a Kendrick fan@lemmy.mlto Programming@programming.dev•What do you use for writing HTML by hand?2·8 months agostill a windows pleb, so no Zed for me
oh, ok
Fleet I haven’t heard of before
It is Jetbrains newest thing, an all language ide, an answer to VsCodium and Zed I guess, it’s still stuck in beta though
I understand your points about convenience and experience

RustRover feels quite heavy/bulky, why not Fleet/Zed assuming you’ve checked those out?
Isn’t he just trying to do things his ways?
