@unfa My boxes (including NAS) are on btrfs. Arch wiki and btrfs wiki have a lof of helpful info about the deployment process.

@MatejLach (Unless we are talking about times after GHC bumps; then there is an avalanche of changes through the whole ecosystem to accommodate new solutions in the compilator.)

@MatejLach With a helpful type system developers are not afraid changing (and immediately releasing) a software.
No worries = more frequent releases.

Such type system also makes them aware of breaking changes in (transitive) dependencies hence they are able to more quickly update the software and cut new release.

My life is complete.

@IronPepper 😻

Majestic.

@luckystrike Netflix is not only DRM but also profiling linked to your credit card number.

In my case I use Kodi with Exodus Redux plugin on a LibreELEC box.

(It is not torrent-based. It’s basically a scrapper so watching that stuff is legal 🤷)

In summary I can watch stuff on a libre GNU/Linux box w/o DRM and not being profiled/data mined by a Big Corp.
I accept that trade-off.

@orbifx Indeed.

@orbifx
Me me me. Let me in!

@nause_marc The same with my S3. Amazing what we can have when the community has access to the tools.

@unfa I’m gonna add “How The Last Jedi Defies Expectations About Male Heroes” https://www.invidio.us/watch?v=mWqVJZMh6-w to balance the topic 🤭

@mdallastella It works for me but I was already familiar with Nix(OS) so switch was painless.

(Guix should reach 1.0 during FOSDEM so ‘beta’ label can be safely ignored today)

@aral Isn’t using Twitter a legitimization of surveillance capitalism or is Twitter not a surveillance capitalism company?
🤷

@Algot Java, the programming language, has methods and ‘batik’ is ‘a method … used in Java’ ― it all make sense! xD

@Algot I hope I wasn’t the only one thinking that “originally used in Java” referred to Sun/Oracle’s Java 😹

@dwardoric https://ucsd-progsys.github.io/liquidhaskell-blog/ is the most mature/useful in practice one.

@raichoo

@hund I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you're referring to as GNU year, is in fact, GNU/Linux year.
