“Knock it off Julian, I know how good my coffee is, I’m the one who buys it. When Bonnie goes shopping, she buys shit. I buy the more expensive coffee because when I drink it, I want to taste it. But you know what’s on my mind right now? It ain’t the coffee in my kitchen…”

It’s quittin’ time! See ya Monday!
Oops, missed a dash, so now you’ll have to come back and finish.
One of the reasons I love pacman. A whole system update within a minute or two (depending on the particular system ofc)
But for the love of linus, please read the news feed first!
Ain’t nobody got time for that
Do you use Arch perchance?
rebuild_intelTower_withUpdate() { ./home/scripts/pullrelease.sh nix flake update sudo nixos-rebuild switch --flake .#intelTower --impure --show-trace nix build .#homeConfigurations.bismuth-edp.activationPackage --impure --show-trace activateHM }
impure? :(
It pulls in flakes from flakes. So, unless I want to travel the whole dependency graph down all of the flakes and put them in my top-level flake, I have to use impure. 😕
I personally use a patch on my nix that allows to evaluate a thunk for the inputs, and have every input in a different file. https://github.com/flafydev/combined-manager
My config is at https://github.com/n3oney/nixus
thanks so much for sharing. I’ll give it a look.
Is there a big reason to use
apt-get
instead of justapt
? I don’t think I’ve ever used apt-get in years, always using just apt.It’s used for scripting. Apt specifically recommends against using it in scripts.
… wait?
Used for scripting, but not recommended to be used in scripting?
apt-get is used in scripting.
apt isnt recommended to be used in scripting.
Try installing something from homebrew.
Oh you just want to install this one package here? Ok but let’s update 60 other packages first. Don’t worry, it will only take about one minute. Per package.
Real talk I’ve been using this I’ve mashed together:
update_brew() { bold=$(tput bold); normal=$(tput sgr0); brew --version && echo "${bold} > brew update${normal}" && brew update && echo "${bold} > brew upgrade${normal}" && brew upgrade && echo "${bold} > brew autoremove${normal}" && brew autoremove && echo "${bold} > brew cleanup${normal}" && brew cleanup && echo "${bold} > brew doctor${normal}" && brew doctor; }
Try Nix instead of Homebrew.
When I was new to linux and got a raspberry pi 1. I was following some random guide to put retroarch on the pi. I did not know what I was doing, but it took at least 24 hours if not more.
Years later I realized that the guide had me compiling it from source instead of just installing a precompiled package.
Bruh have fun on x86_64 since you have to compile them all (at least I had to, I might have broken something)
I installed Mono on my M1 MBP last year and it took like four hours to compile 💀
I think everyone should try Gentoo at least once, for the experience. Why download binaries when you can compile everything?
I already completed Linux From Scratch once 20 years ago for shits and giggles. I want to actually use my system, thanks.
I’ve used Gentoo for almost 20 yeas by now. 😋
I’m guessing you just got to actually use it now then
Can we get some autoremove love in here?
This was me the first time I tried using a Raspberry Pi, I’d never experienced an update taking longer than a minute or two before then
sudo nix flake update && sudo nixos-rebuild switch —flake .
pacman -Syyu
…btw
yay -Syyu
It’s just
yay
it will update by default if no parameters are passed.
I’m so lazy I alias “sudo pacman” to “p”
I have “yeet” for “yay -Rcns”
pacman -Syu
Using -Syyu can cause a partial system upgrade if mirrors are out of sync. It leads to higher traffic for mirror owners and it is considered bad practice overall. There are just a few rare cases where it is useful at all.
Forcing anything should always be a conscious decision and never the default.
What are the chances, I’m currently waiting for apt-get upgrade to finish while browsing Lemmy.
That’s the sleep command. That is, you type that before going to sleep.
I feel that Tanintino would benefit from a beard
