I've been on Mac for around 10 years and the price of the hardware was a huge motivator. The 13" Framework came out and I jumped on that modular bandwagon. I do still use my Mac as a video ripping station but otherwise I earn all my money as a dev on Fedora 40 and have a secondary tablet with NixOS on it, because the draw of an easily reproducible system is strong.

Now Apple just continues to do stupid shit and I just want to own my computer without them looking over my shoulder and charging me a huge price to do it.

I do need to upgrade the Framework (started with the cheap i5 chip) to the fastest AMD variant available so that streaming works better without the fan spinning up, or just build a desktop for streaming and video work.

Adding custom commands to $PATH (lemmy.ca)

I want to add custom commands to my PATH but am unable to get it working. So far I've installed home-manager and added the code below to my nix configuration.

imports = [
  ./hardware-configuration.nix
  
];

Then later on to add the item to PATH

home-manager.users.curtismchale = { pkgs, ... }: {
  home.stateVersion = "23.05";
  home.sessionPath = [
    "$HOME/Workspace/proudcity/proudcity-kubernetes/bin"
  ];
};

I have also tried $HOME/Workspace/proudcity/producity-kubernetes/bin/pc-kube but that doesn't change the issue.

I can see the commands installed at ~/Workspace/proudcity/proudcity-kubernetes/bin/pc-kube but when I type the expected command pc kube $command it says there is nothing installed in path and offers to install some programs that match pc for me.

First ride on Zipp 303 s (lemmy.ca)
 

Lovely first ride on the Zipp 303 s wheels I got this week. They roll fast and don’t feel harsh.

Do you have any games that you like but you never finished? in c/[email protected]

Self Hosted Research Storage (lemmy.ca)
 

I'm happy with Obsidian for taking my notes but I want to find something I can host myself to track web articles, pdfs, mp3 files that I reference as research. I suppose I'm looking for a replacement for DEVONthink or Zotero.

I have a Synology to run stuff on so solutions that run there are a preference, though not required.

I'm newish to Fedora and admit I don't understand the whole developer/governance structure of it vs RHEL, but the news did make me wonder about continuing to use Fedora.

Reading some comments here, maybe it's a non-issue. Guess I'll have to dig more.

Why everyone is switching to NixOS ? in c/[email protected]

I've been looking at it after numerous times I update Fedora only to have some tool break that I use daily. Then I spend a chunk of the day getting Virtualbox working again so I can do my job (write code for websites).

I haven't made the jump, but it looks very interesting.
