A new face shows up in a NixOS Matrix chat. They seem new but excited about the tech and love talking about it and asking questions. After a few days they seem to reach a point where they're ready to go in hard on customizing. They start asking everyone "Can I have your nix.conf?"

Anyone who complies falls off the chat at their next rebuild as their homeserver de-configures itself.

No one pieces it together until talk about running NixOS on bare iron makes the suspicious creature visibly uncomfortable.

Here's a sketch of the second band member for this fictional group. A dog girl on drums. I feel like these two complement each other well. What do you think?

Describing colors to blind people is one of the most beautiful things I've read in a long time (by u/MarideDean_Poet)

@pcy @foone my burning question is, can we see the animal ears :blobcateyes:

I've been eyeing nextcloud server and I'm debating whether I want to run it on my workstation (which I may just start leaving on because the nvidia drivers keep losing their context on suspend or lock) or my pi4 (which I got as surplus for free)...

@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place especially living with the fact that someone else clearly picked the duplicator

@Nifflas@mastodon.gamedev.place Violation of the laws of thermodynamics or the knowledge that I should've picked the violation of the laws of thermodynamics for one hour :thinkface:

@deejvalen eepy vappy... I would do anything to curl up in bed beside <3

TIL Misskey posts can have a whole lot more than four images and Mastodon has no real way of handling that

If you're using Firefox, your first add-on should be uBlock Origin. At this point, it's not just blocking ads. It's basic Internet hygiene.

However, especially if you handle sensitive sites like bank/payment portals or one to several social accounts, your second add-on should be this little thing called Firefox Multi-Account Containers.

It's extremely useful. You can keep the defaults or wipe them all and make your own. So long as you don't sign in to things outside of containers, things opened in Firefox by default won't have access to your accounts. Sites you sign in to will only be signed in on that specific container. Links followed in Fun will not have access to your already signed-in sites on Bank. Links opened from your social account in Personal don't risk accidental interactions from a different social account under Professional.

Social containers are even more helpful for sites that don't support account switching. Even if they do, all you have to do is use a different account in each container and you can view both accounts side-by-side.

Oh, and it's published by Mozilla themselves within Firefox's add-on repository. You can trust it about as much as you trust Firefox.
