DP to HDMI adapter that supports VRR or FreeSync.

Here you go: https://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-102101-BLK-Computer-Adapter/dp/B08XFSLWQF

It's slightly quirky, but it does work. Although I don't use HDMI audio so maybe you're already using the same adapter.

0.82 is only two weeks old, so you would have needed nightly up until that point for most newer Garmin devices. I did uninstall Connect shortly after but I think you just have to make sure it's not running, as I know some use both apps.

When you're a demagogue, they let you do it. I just grab the country by the pussy, I don't wait.

I saw a comment from a conservative recently who was hoping that Trump would create term limits for congress. Like, how delusional can you be?

Gadget bridge doesn’t really work for any “new” (i might be wrong here) devices.

Most newer Garmin devices should work since 0.82 (and earlier with nightly). It's not feature complete compared to using Gadget Connect but should be enough for most use cases, unless you really care about the social/awards aspect and some of the deeper metrics (although if you're handy with SQL you can handle that yourself).

Not being able to set an event date and have "daily suggested workouts" follow that is my only annoyance, although I've been happy just using the defaults for now.

That's generally the consensus, that young men are roughly as conservative as they were historically, but women are more left-wing (although maybe a bit less than expected, given recent election results).

~~Results from Reagan's 1980 election win look fairly similar: https://ropercenter.cornell.edu/how-groups-voted-1980, excepting that women and men were voting in similar ways for each age group, and bigger margins to Reagan in the older groups.~~

EDIT: Nevermind this doesn't actually show age by gender data.

(What about options in flakes.nix? Should I search those on the flakes/options tab?)

Not quite sure what you mean here. I normally only configure out-of-tree packages as flake modules (or whatever the term is), and I don't think there is an official collection/search page for these. It's mainly that certain packages require it like lanzaboote, and home-manager for that matter.

Once I enabled home-manager, I saw that in ~/.config/nixos a flakes.nix and a home.nix files appeared. I already have a flake.nix and a home.nix files in my etc/nixos directory. What’s going on?

It sounds like you configured home-manager system wide, probably through /etc/nixos/flake.nix, but then called the home-manager executable. If you did configure it like this then you do not need to call home-manager ever since nixos-rebuild etc commands will handle this for you.

Does putting packages in configuration.nix use the version control flakes provide?

Typically, it will be configured to follow inputs.nixpkgs so packages will use versions of whatever revision is currently pulled. In my system that is:

inputs.nixpkgs.url = "github:NixOS/nixpkgs/nixos-unstable";

and then you essentially pass that to configuration.nix, and home.nix.

And although you seem to already be using flakes, when you call:

nix flake update

a new revision of input.nixpkgs will be pulled, and so packages configured in configuration.nix will be updated when you next call

nixos-rebuild switch

or whatever you used to update your system.

Refer to: https://nixos-and-flakes.thiscute.world/

if you haven't already as there is where I got started from for the most part. There's a lot more detail I missed since nix and flakes are pretty complex (and I don't fully understand much of it either).

System packages in configuration.nix, user packages in home.nix. I'd say anything that is non-interactive and/or requires root access is a good rule of thumb for system packages. Beyond that I try to use modules for configuring packges and there is usually only one of nixos and home manager options (sometimes there are duplicates).

As for flakes I mostly use it to handle a bunch of different systems from one config and any flake specific configs. I also use standalone flakes for dev environments but that's not related to the system config.

They are planning to use KVM under the hood in the future. But who cares when we have qemu and libvirt.

It was mostly the girls doing that, and they haven't gone as hard right.

It's rumored Jeffries was instrumental in the congestion pricing delay (that may now be a permanent delay).

If you can convince the lowest white man he's better than the best colored man, he won't notice you're picking his pocket. Hell, give him somebody to look down on, and he'll empty his pockets for you.

SVT-AV1 2.3 was released yesterday and while it's already the fastest AV1 encoder around, the new version brings yet more improvements for squeezing out additional performance for CPU-based AV1 coding.

 

Nice to see this will be finally fixed. You have to make a udev rule to work around this at the moment.
