    A single domain helps so much, regardless of what you have planned. I basically use mine just as bookmarks. There’s a dedicated subdomain for dynamic DNS. I make use of SRV records. Costs me like 6 bucks a year. You don’t need huge ambitions or dreams for a domain name to make sense.

    You don’t configure GRUB directly in NixOS. You configure it like everything else via NixOS modules which are pretty robust (but with enough energy, you can probably create something that passes evaluation but won’t actually work). Only my VPSs use GRUB, the rest lanzaboote and none of these ever broke.

    So I’d say breaking your GRUB config by accident in NixOS is very unlikely.

    You can use systemd with the classic logging tools by installing and enabling their respective service if you prefer. This will forward all messages to them. You even get a more comprehensive log than before systemd as the latter will even forward the messages that were sent before the logging service was started.

    Edit: similarly for cron, you can still use the classic tools. I see their appeal in ease of configuration. Though in my opinion, systemd timers are more powerful and better integrated (don’t ask me why, I made that assessment years ago) so I accept that increased complexity.

    For logs, I actually prefer the systemd journal though


  • I’ve never done shrooms / psilocybin. Only acid and 2C-B.

    But looking at common dosages for it, I don’t think I would have understood the concept of an office on 100 mg. That is about 6 times a normal dose.

    However, I would never think of wasting a good trip at the office. Seems like a double negative

    EDIT: the dosages were referring to the chemical psilocybin, as that was what the post I replied to used. It was not about 0.1g of shrooms. Also mushrooms come in different strengths, depending on a lot of factors, including the species itself. Sorry for any confusion

    In the same way words like “antique” and “vintage” bring about specific time periods and aesthetics, “retro” does as well.

    In my opinion, “retro” gaming is a misnomer and “vintage” is more fitting for what people usually mean. Retro is something modern or recent made in an older style. Actual old stuff is “vintage”. So a game like UFO 50 is actual retro gaming; of course the definition gets more fuzzy when you look at ROM hacks that don’t even work on the original hardware of the base ROM. But if you buy an original old console and play the games from back then, that’s not really retro by the original definition.

    However, I’m well aware that this ship has sailed
