Here’s how I set up a clean #Linux VPS for remote development:
When run on a fresh #Ubuntu 24.04 install it will…
- set up a user (mz)
- pull down all my ssh pubkeys
- set zsh as the default shell
- install #Nix with support for flakes
- install *all* my tools with Nix via home-manager
- set up #NeoVim, #fzf and other cli tools
- install tailscale
Less than 5 minutes from first ssh login to productive dev environment.
If you give me the spec, I’ll write a cli program for you
Tell me how I did:
Number 1 reason I refuse to use #Linux on the desktop is that #Wayland support on #NVIDIA is still a hassle.
Most of the things work but something simple as watching a full screen video in the browser is still painful.
It’s just spam to be noticed if you ask me…
Yes. Network effect a huge factor and often neglected by privacy purists.
In which cases do you guys use nostr:npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 over Signal?

There are a lot of intelligent people on Bluesky who I respect a lot, e.g. str4d.xyz and filippo.io.
It’s not that Bluesky is “a shit platform”. It’s very decent for what people want in a social network.
I endorse and use proton.me products myself and also have a few nostr:npub18s4zkd0wjq5gkthz4paw2704ty4s354wcp2krvxy0sewz3g9z2cs73ydrt invites to share if someone wants one.

Glad to see another ThePrimeagen enjoyer here ;)
Have you tried Cloud Gaming? GeForce Now has gotten crazy good.
