@xerz I don't think we recomend SHA-512 at this point. The default algorithm used is also yescryptCan you reference where you found that? @0x4A6F

TIL: 99.9% of cases where you pass --system to #nix, you actually want --eval-system instead.You want to control the target system of a build, not convince the local nix that the machine it runs on is some other system.

@nobody Yes, but I don't really enjoy passing whole expressions on the command line!

If you're using #devenv for your projects, please note that #telemetry was added in the 1.4.0 release.It handles `DO_NOT_TRACK=`¹ by sending that value along² with the telemetry instead of not sending any at all.But worse, it tars up all files it can find through `git ls-files -z`³ and exfiltrates them to the service.1/n[1] https://github.com/cachix/devenv/blob/6c987a8795eedea872afe4d1c1ac518d0c7f6db1/devenv/src/cli.rs#L202-L204[2] https://github.com/cachix/devenv/blob/6c987a8795eedea872afe4d1c1ac518d0c7f6db1/devenv/src/devenv.rs#L212-L214[3] https://github.com/cachix/devenv/blob/6c987a8795eedea872afe4d1c1ac518d0c7f6db1/devenv/src/devenv.rs#L226-L257#nixos #nix

The #devenv CLI does not tell you any of this and neither `devenv.sh` nor `devenv.new` have a privacy policy or will tell you who runs the service in question and who it shares its data with.In #nixpkgs the package was bumped to 1.4.0 after which Christian Kampka immediately sent a follow-up PR¹ to enable `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` when wrapping the devenv binary.This was promptly reverted² by the author of devenv.2/n[1] https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/381817[2] https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/381981

Unfortunately #nixpkgs currently does not seem well-equipped to resolve this conflict, due to a lack of policy and common sense seems not to be well distributed.Ultimately this is a governance issue for #NixOS where the steering committee would be in a great position to limit the scope of what is acceptable behaviour.In fact, if you have an opinion on the matter, please reach out to any steering committee representative and tell them:https://github.com/NixOS/org/blob/main/doc/governance.md3/n

For #NixOS Unstable users:We're about to stop shipping VPN plugins by default with #networkmanager.This means you'll need to explicitly configure the ones you need via `networking.networkmanager.plugins`.In fact, if you are relying on a VPN via #NetworkManager go and do that now to prevent any interruptions.See this post for further details:https://discourse.nixos.org/t/breaking-changes-announcement-for-unstable/17574/85?u=hexa

If you're looking for a recommendation on how to vote in the upcoming #NixOS SC (steering committee) election this guide looks pretty solid.> The candidates are sorted by their willingness to making the NixOS community a safe and welcoming environment for people of all identities, and their ability to standing up for those values when attacked.https://rentry.co/nixos-sc-election-guide-2025#nix #nixpkgs

@SuperDicq The use unfree software is opt-in in nixpkgs and that is unlikely to change.Migrating away from GitHub is desirable, but it is not super clear what (selfhostable) platform can sustain the number of interactions that nixpkgs produces. The cost will be significant, I remember the calculation that freedesktop.org made.@fgaz

#Gandi just "upgraded" me from U2F to E-Mail MFA.U2F binding was removed. E-Mail MFA was put in place instead.No advanced warning, no migration period.Would have gladly upgraded that to #Webauthn had they asked.Strong signal that the "no bullshit" policy is no more.

Turns out I have two Passkeys set up in there and they just removed my legacy Yubikey 4 that I keep around for recovery purposes.So why then enable E-Mail MFA for the account? I don't get it.I migrated my personal domains elsewhere already, so whatever.But what would be a reasonable registrar for an org, where (limited) access can be delegated, e..g to manage the delegation, the zone, DNSSEC, but not the payment aspects or selling the domain.

On #porkbun I could register without ever configuring a password. The account was set up with passkeys from day one.Also, the pricing they have is very competitive, so a clear recommendation if you want to move anywhere with your private domains.

@nobody This is exactly what Slack does as well.
