I'd argue that the concept of isolated environments is great. Python's implementation... leaves something to be desired.
It's still a bit hacky, even in Python 3. Tools like uv and pdm exist in the gaps to smooth it out.
That said, it's something that the core community is actively working on and it's not something users will face day to day.
I say this as someone who moved from PHP 3 to Python 2 to Ruby to PHP 6+ to Python 3 as their goto language over the years.
Tried it out. Liking it so far, but I might have soft-locked the demo? I think I got into a state where I can't get a key to progress. Or at least I can't seem to find it. Happy to send pics of map or copy of save file if it would be valuable.
Through the magic of buying two of them....
I'm already on an independent git forge, so I have that covered.
I only read the protocol document and skimmed the guide, so I didn't see the cryptocurrency angle of the funding company. Yeah, that's a bit of a warning sign.
Um... It's literally hosting itself, complete with issues and PRs (which they call patches). So to me it seems to replace a forge.
For private repos, it could be quite a good fit. No need for other contributors/users.
I was looking for something like this as a private alternative to GitHub/GitLab last month. Awesome to stumble across this.
This is interesting because I've been thinking about switching from Debian to Arch. I'm already running Nix inside of my Debian installation to get more recent apps (I don't like how snap interacts with the rest of the system, so I avoid it if I can).
Is there anything else on a more base OS level (like apt v pacman) that you've noticed is different, if you're willing to share?
TIL about Rainmeter. This thread has done some good, beyond the obvious good of mocking Dev Home.
Makes sense. I can't blame you for taking that position. I think we need a paid search engine: if you're not paying you're the product, after all.
DDG has gone downhill in recent years.
Not as much as Google though, so I've been feeling like it's been getting better and better, but it's just a comparative feeling.
I tried to switch to Tidal, but I found their app not as good, their integration with Sonos lacking, and no parental controls, which is important to me. Music selection was pretty good. A lot of niche stuff isn't there, sadly. For example I sometimes listen to college acapella groups, and there just isn't as much there. All the popular music is there though.
I wish FIDO had paid more attention to SQRL. It's long in the tooth now, but with some attention it could have been a better solution than passkeys, IMO.
