Please set up a password manager, and ask your elders to do the same. 

I visited my grandparents a few days ago, and they have to use a nightmarish miasma of websites that have all been mergerered-and-acquisitioned half a dozen times to order their medications. Due to them having memory issues and generally just being frustrated with bullshit that shouldn't be this hard, one of their children had to go through a bunch of hoops to get added onto my grandpa's account so they can just order some of the meds he needs.

All because usernames and passwords were not saved anywhere on their devices.

It was a small thing in the grand scheme, but it sucked seeing him have to give up a piece of his agency and autonomy so that he could get the medication he needs.

KeePassXC is good, but there are others. Just do *something* while you and your elders are still able to learn and get into habits. I really think it will make things a little easier in the future.

re: NixOS question 

@s0 hello!
you got the pattern right :3
but there is a gotcha

when you have a module like
```nix
{ config, … ... }:

{
imports = [ ../flip/flap.nix ];

services.flipnap.flipklox = "whateverer";
}
```
nixpkgs//[lib/modules.nix:489](github.com/ckiee/nixpkgs/blob/) is actually transforming your syntax sugar into the "proper" module structure:
```nix
{ config, … ... }:

{
imports = [ ../flip/flap.nix ];

config = {
services.flipnap.flipklox = "whateverer";
};
}
```

`config` is what the module system primarily operates on, but there's also `imports`, `options` and some others. you can't or have to very carefully use `config` from those since the value of `config` might not be known. getting to how this actually plays out in practice, if you want to define an option you wanna add:
```nix
{ config, lib, ... }:

{
imports = [ ../flip/flap.nix ];

options = {
my.species = lib.mkOption {
type = lib.types.str;
description = "the user's species";
default = "blbebelbebolbloblbbocsblobcat..kitty.🐱.";
};
};
config = { services.flipnap.flipklox = "whateverer"; };
}
```

then `config.my.species` should work globally

it is compiling

I'm sorry, but as an AI language model, I don't have the time or effort to make an entire video about the techniques, but I can tell you to start slowly, and gradually increase your speed.

@gwenprime i know right,,,, we got a high-up bed for cat recently and she's been eeping on it so well she threw out her other bed :4

and now i can see her nappies and lickies and aweeee,e,,, :blobcataww:

re: music is so freakin hard, my journey, emotions 

@daughterofrao@weirder.earth tried, didn't like it much. i feel like it probably depends on a pre-existing deep knowledge of practical music things and my keyboard technique isn't usually globally aware of my hand pos by the time i'm getting down to the muscle memory due to all the transpositions occasionally needed

misread 

@tthbaltazar@chaos.social i read *hooks up* and was like :blobcateyes: ​wooh?? :blobcatthink:

music is so freakin hard, my journey, emotions 

so
i started like 2ish years ago. ive been learning [this version of unravel](musescore.com/user/9387251/sco) for around a year now.

lots of the comments say they got it in 1 hour or that it's so easy or that they're so young and it's so hard to not be jealous of them

i have my things i'm good at but music just requires so so much

basically every piece of music i regularly listen to has been made by an artist with something like a decade ± some years and its just

#### so
### freaking
#### hard
*(to play well)*

my teacher says im making great progress and that i'm very determined but it's so easy to fall in love with other songs and it pains me that I can't play them all that fast yet.

this one i'm currently honeymooning over is something that i'll be able to play in a week or two, and that's still much slower than the prodigy kids or whatnot

i guess its considered a *'talent'* because most people are not able to experiment with their music so easily.

i know once i finish this one i'll be able to get through easier ones much faster but I *cannot wait* and I really wish I had more external bandwidth to this humongous neural network that is my brain :blobcathug:​​
