I can't use tramp's sudo method when using flatwhatson's emacs-pgtk-native-comp package. But the official #emacs package in #guix works fine. Does it happen for you?

Another big advantage of #Guix: the documentation is just so much easier to understand and follow. It's quite newbie friendly.

I'm at the point in my #NixOS adventures that the language is starting to frustrate me enough to reconsider using #Guix instead, and accept that I'll have to drop or rewrite all the little things I built upon systemd.

Every new fucking project I need to dig in... I end up fighting against #Guix it's pretty annoying...I don't really control very well how to insert variables in the config-flags and when is each thing executed... or the gexps... and at the end of the day this is just a pain in the ass for no reason

This idea that the undeneath system is immutable and you have to create a "container" in order to do things is effective but it's taking me a loooooong time to get used to it

the experience is somewhat similar to #guix environments (or profiles or whatever you might wanna call them)

but the tech stack is different

“Why Open Source Matters — Guix”https://blog.bitmex.com/why-open-source-matters-guix/

I wasn’t seduced by the title but this article is a great explanation of how #FreeSoftware, @reproducible_builds, and #bootstrapping contribute to #SupplyChainSecurity for Bitcoin Core. This includes a discussion of why they went from #Gitian to #Guix.

I mean, they are Bing results, but I still feel like Microsoft is trolling me... #guix

Still stuck in gnome. All this mouse-work to select my focus window is really annoying. Three monitors are FAR less useful when you have to traverse that real-estate manually. All this for some "stability" as I set up my new #Guix OS. Missing #exwm

This month's #FreeSoftwareSupporter is here! News about #LibrePlanet workshops, ten years of GNU #Guix, #Mastodon in the spotlight, and more. Check it out at https://u.fsf.org/3lf and share it with a friend.

April 18 marks 10 years since the first commit to #GNU #Guix. To celebrate, zimoun has collected stories from a sample of the 600+ people who’ve contributed to Guix over the years, which you can read here: https://u.fsf.org/3l3 Hurrah!

Today it's been 10 years since the first #GNU #Guix commit! 🎂

Some of the 600+ people who made it possible wrote their story:

The #GNU #Shepherd 0.9.0 is out!👉 https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2022-04/msg00089.html

Improved logging, on-demand service startup à la inetd and systemd, concurrency through Fibers. Running on your #Guix System machine anytime now!

#Shepherd: systemd-style socket activation ✅

Now to try all that out on #Guix System and Guix Home services.

should i use #nix or #guix to install a working (and usable) installation of #emacs on @elementary ?

GNU Guix has a new post "Keeping one’s home tidy," which explores a new system of keeping your config files tidy, archivable, and even shareable. https://u.fsf.org/3ix #GNUGuix #GNU #Guix

How do you debug the #childhurd service?

You spawn a #Guix System VM that runs a childhurd (the #Hurd in a VM), and you connect VNC to the VM in the VM. See?

Fedora to remove #glibc #nscd (the name service cache daemon):https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Changes/RemoveNSCD

This is bad news for systems like #Guix where multiple glibc versions might coexist:https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/guix-devel/2022-02/msg00263.html
