Quite good, if you avoid the fact it's literally everywhere including the atmosphere, doesn't break down, and causes cancer. But who cares about such little things like cancer causing rain...

Best case scenario: sunk cost fallacy

Worst case scenario: there's a lot of shit you can do when you control a closed source app store, and canonical has a history of doing sketchy shit like selling user data to Amazon

It's far more simple than that. The students are predominantly nobles, and they pretty much completely cut all ties to their previous lives.

So why would you send a hot daughter to become a witch when you can marry her and make political gains? You send the disfigured one so you don't have to waste any more money on her.

The 5th son doesn't need to be disfigured to be essentially useless in the political world.

When you do things right, people won't be sure you've done anything at all.

Damn you, the photo didn't load and I thought I'd be the first one. Time to start my own comment chain, with blackjack and hookers.

Flying would be a very high demand service and could be sold for much more than what a train ticket costs. If it was feasible, it would have already been done.

And now that it's at the top, it attracts more curious clicks, thus it continues to remain on top.

That's exactly how I learned about MX and started using it.

I've recently performed my first full conversion. The key was that windows took like 15 mins to boot and 5 more to open up chrome. That laptop might be ancient but with Linux it goes 0-browser in a minute, and the convertee is more than satisfied.

  1. As you can see from the state of this thread, people see nix or nixpkgs but read nixos. There's no momentum from the community to push it as an extra package manager, while every thread is spammed with nixos.

  2. No gui integrations for casuals. For example Discover integrates flatpaks and snaps, but for nix you need to use the terminal.

  3. The documentation is abysmal. I spent days trying to figure out how to use nix as a declarative package manager before I accidentally came across home-manager. Even the manual leads you down the wrong path. A quick start guide with a few examples for home-manager and flakes, and a few basic commands, would've had me going in 5 minutes. That problem is made worse by the fact that almost all sources of info focus on nixos instead.

Edit:

if anyone's interested in trying it out, here's a part of my other comment in this thread

It's just a list of packages, and an optional flake to control the repositories (stable/unstable) and add packages from outside of the official ones.

To update everything nix related I just run:

cd ~/dotfiles/nix/ && nix flake update && home-manager switch
