@pony sorry, it's truly hard to find another set of words to answer "what's the problem?" when "mandatory mitm proxy" is right there.

@pony I'm gonna admit I'm bad at corporate and none of my employers tried to mitm me, but when my government wanted to, "it's my government, they have complete over everything around, really" wasn't a thing that crossed my mind, not even once.

@bookwar @zbyszek> We want a declarative configurationYes! Yes!> with key-value settingsNo-o-o!! No, no, no! Just spend a week with #NixOS already before reinventing the wheel, I beg you. There's no key-value schema that'd get you an rsyslog compiled and running against a patched gnutls, let alone any actually complicated system setup.There's simply no building a configurable scriptlets-free system without a powerful, flexible system composition mechanism like NixOS module system. That thing that composes loose packages into a configured image according to a spec *is* the distro. 20th century distros could skimp on that by showing those into scriptlets of random packages, extracting it into runtime configuration ugliness like crypto-policies and forcing users to hammer their systems into shape by imperative scripts like bash or Ansible. A 21th century immutable image-based distros is configuration system at heart. The flexibility of image composition is the flexibility of the result. Unless you're designing a bespoke dumb appliance with a dozen of parameters, there's no handwaving the centerpiece of its design as a bash script, Containerfile or an ini file.It hurts so much to read such texts. NixOS is 21 years old. Declarative configuration, true composable cacheable immutability, seamless overriding 100% of the package building where needed, building dozens of image formats, declarative VM management, impermanence, factory resets, rebootless change application — those few of the above that weren't solved back in 2003 were solved last decade. Wanna know where do can-do attitude of "I'll willingfully ignore all those lessons and hammer Fedora into shape in order to emulate the fraction of the desired NixOS properties" leads? One smart engineer did just that, very recently. Now we have bootc, Containerfiles for a configuration mechanism and systems where we can' t even securely distrust a root CA in a way that survives an update.

@navi @leo @wyatt @puppygirlhornypost2 no, native-first and native-only is how you do it. if your lower build system ever tries to access a network, shame on it let it stand in a corner and think where did it go wrong. this is a job of a package manager like Nix.

@navi @leo @wyatt @puppygirlhornypost2 yeah, there's also a cheap plastic clone of it and a whole lot of 20th century package managers, but let's not complicate it

Look, I've always been saying "if people care about X11, where are the forks then?", so it was only about time #X11Libre appeared. Wish them all the luck in the world, the idea of keeping X11 on life support has always been a tall order, and, with the dramatic entrance they've made, I hope they also have a bit of time to spare on actual work required for that gargantuan task.

@cassidy @ephemeromorph We have to go deeper. Pidgin used to be called GAIM, which expands to GTK+ AOL Instant Messenger, obviously, which then expands to GNU's Not Uniplexed Information Computing Systems Image Manipulation Program Toolkit Object Introspection+ America Online Instant Messenger.
