I think there’s a clear answer as to why

No, a line is when there are people waiting in front of you, not when they’re beside you holding your hand.

If they care about terminal emulators, it’s unlikely their distro came with one preinstalled.

I think they said that because OP wrote “not once have I had a problem or anything break. What am I doing wrong?” making it sound like the problem is that they haven’t experienced anything break yet.

Vim is pretty easy for me because I’m used to it. Nano is very difficult to use for me because I’ve rarely used it.

The angles in a triangle now add up to 179°.

This is in my Home Manager configuration. I don’t think this is that bad, it’s just kinda messy. If you can’t tell, it’s a script for taking screenshots, embedded in my configuration.

I wanted to customize Windows 10. Customizing Windows was too hard and unsafe (requiring many “bloated” third party tools).

Then, after seeing some cool themes, I realized Linux is way more customizable. So I tried Linux Mint and now I use NixOS.

If you want a challenge that may or may not be worth it, try configuring NixOS. And I mean really get into it, try to configure everything using Nix. It’s very time consuming but not boring, each configuration varies person to person (i.e the way you organize it) so it can be quite fun if you have the time.

Also nixpkgs (what Nix and NixOS use) has like, all the packages

Sorry for the late response. I don’t think the mods should be conflicting, just put them both in the mods folder and see if that works. IIRC Valkyrien Skies is required on both the client and the server.

Is there a way to legally obtain a copy of Minecraft to join “offline” servers with?

Yes! If you already have a legal copy of the game (one that you paid for), Prism Launcher allows you to use an offline account (usually used for singleplayer when your internet is down), which lets you use any username. This is probably a feature in other launchers too.

I host my own Minecraft server and have online-mode set to false in serer.properties.

You can set it to true and use EasyAuth to allow offline players to join. This means online players get online UUIDs, and offline players have to log-in using commands and are given an offline UUID. You can also set up a global password, if you trust players won’t log-in as someone else.

There’s also EasyWhitelist for a name-based whitelist (by default I think whitelists are UUID-based, which probably don’t work with offline players).

i just copy the links to a text file as i write and when i’m done with the paper i just paste it at the end and format it correctly

Idk if it’ll ever be for mine (Samsung Galaxy A51). Hopefully one day, if such a phone exists, i’ll have a phone that is more open and also supported by something like LineageOS.

i am in brazil and can confirm it is winter. here the weather is very cold (20°C or 68°F)

Windows 10.

I wanted customization. Windows provided customization, sure, but like in the worst way possible. Want to change the system colors or what buttons look like? Download this third party theme and apply it with bloated tools that are probably malware in disguise!

Meanwhile on Linux (NixOS), I can just change a few lines in my dotfiles and it works. Sometimes it’s inconvenient but I’m not really looking for convenience.

I use Thunderbird and I don’t think it looks old, specially after recent updates. You can also change the colors which is pretty cool.

Here’s my distrohopping journey (including non-Linux OS)

• Windows 7 →

• Windows 10 →

Mid 2021, I tried Fedora Linux in a VM and was unable to install it, but I liked it regardless.

So, a while later I decided to try this “Linux” thing on my computer.

• Linux Mint (late 2021) →

• Arco Linux (arch felt too intimidating) →

• Debian (stability = good?) →

• Debian Sid (stability = boring) →

• Artix Linux OpenRC (omg i hate systemd so much!1!!) →

• Void Linux →

• Artix Linux runit (it didn’t work) →

• Arch Linux (how do i use systemctl wtf) →

• Void Linux again (ah, ln -s /etc/sv/something /run/service/)→

• NixOS unstable (since January 2024)

Honestly, I’m just glad I found something I liked, as NixOS is perfect for tinkering.

During all that distrohopping, I “DE-hopped” even more. Currently I run SwayFX, but I’ve used Cinnamon, XFCE, Plasma, GNOME, AwesomeWM, i3, bspwm, dwm, swaywm and Hyprland.

edit 1: add Artix Linux runit

edit 2: remove NixOS stable from the list
