tuto

I’m more of a bottom, if you know what I mean.

Where is “nu” though?

Yeah, it really isn’t for everyone. The advantagees it provides is mostly for developers and companies. If you’re a company, managing a NixOS fork is useful, so all users of the system are on the same page always.

Otherwise the package manager itself can be used on its own. It’s neat being able to use packages from basically any distro without even needing to use a VM.

Nix is daunting indeed, but cool for those who want such tooling

I’d recommend https://typst.app/. Super easy to structure text like LaTeX and 100 times easier to use :)

Not entirely agreeing, but there are some things that are not quite there yet. For me it’s mostly:

• Bibliography sorting
• Spellchecking
• Syntax highlighting for lesser known programming languages like GDScript

Otherwise I don’t really have complaints. If anything LaTeX was the one thing setting me back (and don’t even get me started on Word).

There are official ones and there’s also https://github.com/qjcg/awesome-typst

I took one of those and easily adjusted it to my needs. It’s so easy and intuitive! And fast!!!

Typst is awesome and sooo fast! I literally ported my thesis mid-way to it and haven’t looked back since. Love it all the way.

Popcorn time

If you’re not a techy person/power user, I would recommend staying with Kubuntu/Xubuntu (flavors of Ubuntu, that seem familiar to Windows users), or a more loved variant Linux Mint. You’ll have everything you need there, and your gaming will do just fine using Steam thanks to Proton. My first time (~2014) I went with Ubuntu, since it has an easy to use installer (like most distributions), with relatively sane default settings. Nowadays I would recommend Linux Mint or anything Debian based for the stability.

(from my gf): Rust is present. It just is in the bathroom right now ;)

This is missing one at the very top that’s just:

return a < b;

kbin is written in PHP ;)

Literally don’t personally care about boot time, as long as it’s under 30-60s (currently at about ~5?), and since I reboot like once a month, I don’t really pay much attention to it. How come you want to minimize that so much? Any particular target you want to achieve?
