  • NixOS user here. This doesn’t come out of the box, but I append a comma before the command I want to run without installing, I can run the command without installing.

    Yes it’s technically downloaded (if not cached there already) in the nix store, but this is (optionally automatically) cleaned up regularly, for store items that doesn’t have a generation (profile, think version of your configuration) that depends on it.

    Out the box, you can run a command that opens a shell up with the packages you specify, but comma uses a database to know the executeable names for packages (you get to pick if multiple matches), similar to the command not found function in other distros.

    Sorry for hijacking your comment, just wanted to say something cool about a cool distro, which isn’t suitable for everyone, but I hope that can improve in the future because nixos is niceos


  • Yeah sadly she counts as a royal, but the civilian in the picture is her sister in laws son pre marriage into the royal family. So technically not a royal, but might as well be.

    Most people in Norway like the king and the queen, and the crown Prince and the crown princess, and their children (together), they used to like this guy too before he got caught doing all this illegal shit







  • I’m surprised Philippines isn’t regarded as over 90% in Asia they are second only to Singapore which indeed has a blue dot.

    I think it depends on how strict a definition you put on it. According to pna.gov.ph less than 9% of adults dont use English at all. And I guess this doesn’t include taglish, because I dont think they mean mixing the word shorts into the language is using English

    So I guess its a matter of definition, if you can afford to go to school nearly everyone can speak English, if you can’t go to school English proficiency drops but over 90% at least use English sometimes. As from 4th grade they primarily use English to teach in school for most subjects

    At least in Norway and Iceland (yes nearly other European countries as well) translate Disney movies to their local language. The Philippines doesn’t, they serve English as English is one of the two official languages and has been since it was US territory.

    I was surprised when sitting in the back of the class of first grade in Norway that most kids wasn’t able to use English conversationally (yet), but that is just my ignorance, and rather I should be surprised to see most kids knew basic words in English instead. But its hard to have perspective when my multilingual daughter had conversational English from 2 years



  • This is exactly what I am trying to explain to my wife when she calls a wasp a bumblebee in front of our daughter.

    Apes are monkeys no matter shat they say in the planet of the apes remake because apes are a subgroup of monkeys, and whales are fish because fish doesn’t mean anything, and bamboo is wood because wood doesn’t mean anything. And a banana is not a tree, but I’d really like to taste a banana flower I heard it’s good
