The update reached the nixos-26.05-small and nixos-unstable-small channels. Many programs depend on PHP, so the main channels need time rebuilding and fixing potential build failures.
So.. why don't those abrasive materials destroy the hair in the drain?? Explain yourself
I recently dreamt vividly that I ate something. I didn't know I could feel taste in my dreams
nix-collect-garbage has a --dry-run flag which should print deletable paths without actually deleting them. Check out the nix-collect-garbage reference
Aaand... it's Turing-complete!
You did all this as a teenager? Impressive
Typst and LaTeX libraries can be used to create a variety of graphs within a text document, but no animations
You can use WinBoat or WinApps or even LinOffice to run Microsoft Office in a VM that feels like a native app. Or you can instead try Collabora Office which looks like Microsoft Office, but is based on LibreOffice
$10 per TB is actually crazy cheap even for used enterprise drives! Unimaginable in this day and age

| Creature | Swims | Walks | Flies |
| -------- | ----- | ----- | ----- |
| Dog | X | X | |

Not because I'm scared of anyone breaking into my house, but for the peace of mind that the data is gone once I erase the encryption key.
For privacy, I use LibreWolf with default security settings and a VPN.
