  • I’ve been using Nix for a little more than a year, I don’t think I’ve touched my configs in better than 6 months. I’m honestly not entirely certain what would constitute a dumpster fire in a Nix config

    I’ve probably only modified 50 or 60 lines of the default configs.

    I do have a folder full of shell.nix files when I need to do a special workflow, like I have one that kicks up wine and sets up mp3tag, another that sets up rust, another sets up Python, and one that sets up for yt-dlp. But I don’t carry anything in my base configs that I don’t use in a given week






  • First, everyone (not you because you don’t like it) should buy their cast iron at the hardware store, should be ~ $30. It’ll last pretty much forever so that $30 over a lifetime is not much.

    If you don’t cook a starch or aromatic in it, just wipe it out and let it get super hot.

    If you do cook starch in it, hand wash it with soap, just let it get over 212 degrees on the stove to dry it.

    If you want to throw it in the dishwasher, just pull it out at the end of the cycle and throw it on the stove > 212 degrees to dry. A well seasoned pan is generally so easy to clean, this would be a waste of your time, but it won’t kill anyone.

    If you want to subscribe to the no soap, scrub off the cooked starches with water and a non scratch scouring pad, re-coat in a fine layer of oil and let it smoke off under high heat. I really don’t bother and just use whatever it takes to get it clean easily.

    If the seasoning polymer you get from burning off oil gets cruddy after 6-8 months, re-season.

    If you accidentally get a little rust on it, soak it in vinegar until the rust dissapears, scrub the spot with a 3m pad until the spot is clean and re-season.

    You can get a rusty ass pan from a yard sale, soak it in vinegar for a day, scrub it down and re-season it. It’ll come out like new.

    If over the years, the seasoned surface starts to look super cruddy, soak it in sodium hydroxide until the polymer disolves, then reseason.

    Yeah, they’re harder than throwing it in the dishwasher, But they’re wasteless, cheap, pleasant to cook on and give great results.

    I keep a teflon pan and a couple different cast iron around. Even found a glass top lid that fits.







  • police force wouldn’t lie

    Absolutely corruptible. That lie wouldn’t even be expensive. Company puts in a call to execs running the police, they say how they want it to go down, make promises for money/power/favor, trickles down through the ranks.

    massive legal backlash if the company disclosed false info

    The feds didn’t even pay the reward and there was no backlash. We don’t get together well and protest over things that don’t affect us individually. Even the left is shit at it. We expect them to lie. If someone produces proof he was with them, they’ll just plain plausible deniability or individual incompetence.

    Corporations own our political landscape on both sides. The judges, the police, everyone is running with a level of autonomy, wiggle room as you will, but when they need a narrative fed, it’s easy. Only 60% of us even believe the truth, feeding a few lies is simple.



  • Use Old AI’s, smaller models, It works heavily on random so even if you set it up with exactly what they’re using, you won’t see that stuff all the time.

    You also have a higher chance of seeing bizarre stuff if you ask it about subject matter it’s not well trained on. A lot of the hallucinations come from essentially asking it a question to which it has no good answer, It doesn’t necessarily just miss the mark and come up with another likely answer, now when it generates it’s noise, you get whatever unlikely concept that comes out of the random.
