Mit Nix wäre das nicht passiert!


How do I do that with the SSD cache? Everyone just talks about it, but I can’t find any documentation…
I have them at home and as such don‘t need to spend money on them.
Nix is absolutely not just for CI, the idea is to use it locally as well, so the CI runs in the same environment.


I‘d have to rewatch the video, but he used Pop!_OS (with COSMIC) at first, and iirc he switched midway because it was so broken. Elijah used Bazzite, and Luke used CachyOS.


LTT did another Linux challenge recently, and this time their verdict was that they‘d all be staying on Linux for their personal PCs (with FakeLinus dual booting Windows, because he needs software there for his job). They did also say that most of their videos will still show Windows, as that is still the primary target of the manufacturers that send them the press kits.


I personally use a TPM with Measured Boot (so it doesn‘t give the key to external disks), and have a YubiKey and password as fallback options.
It stores one of the keys to my LUKS volume.
I do actually use the TPM for disk encryption and Measured Boot, and can’t simply disable it.
And unlike most „forbidden characters“ for file names, the colon is actually used in NTFS: to separate the file path from the name of a
named forkAlternate Data Stream.
