I have a huge Steam backlog and a Plex server stocked with (ymmv) many of the finest movies available in the form. There’s so much media there that there’s no realistic path to experiencing it all in my lifetime. That certainly has an impact on my inclination to purchase new games or movies.

I concede that that’s always been the case for durable written works thanks to the local library. But the scale of convenient supply now is staggering.

Edit (since I can’t seem to reply directly) - to the commenter suggesting LibreOffice below: quite different things. This was a library for implementing reasonably high fidelity docx viewing / editing in the browser.

Now I want to use Nix* to manage my multi-machine MacOS and Linux setup (with lots of dotfile config overlap, of course).

That’s the HN experience for you.

Kind souls: what is currently the blessed way to manage MacOS dots with Nix? I recall there is more than one paradigm - what’s the approach that simplest, most robust and can be adopted incrementally?

Edit: Just to say that I think Atuin now also plays in this space. Haven’t checked it out, though.

Definitely interested in something like this - love ghostty and I’ve been finding Zellij a bit crashy recently (plus I don’t really need tabs).

This is a real “oof”, isn’t it. Very difficult to understand what they were going for here. Perhaps they just assumed no one in the intended audience would pick it up. But it certainly is enough of a red flag that it made me go back to the top of your write-up for a re-read, thinking about their whole pipeline in much more sceptical terms.
