'There’s no greys, only white that’s got grubby. I’m surprised you don’t know that. And sin, young man, is when you treat people as things. Including yourself. That’s what sin is.’

‘No. It ain’t. When people say things are a lot more complicated than that, they means they’re getting worried that they won’t like the truth. People as things, that’s where it starts.'

I honestly don't know how nh works under the hood, but it does seem to do concurrent builds, so it's probably something like that.

nix flake update
nix flake check --no-build
git commit -a
nh os switch

Is the routine I've settled into. Flake update because I use flakes, flake check because it's easier to see any warnings about deprecated options and the like so I can fix them preemptively, git commit after the check to avoid back-to back commits where the second is fixing some issue with the first, and nh because I like the pretty dependency graph and progress bar.

In my experience running the Windows version of the mod manager in the same prefix as the game also works.

See also: a streaming service's "recommended for you" section that is indistinguishable from "watch it again".

Coca-Cola switched from fresh to spent coca leaves in 1903, so the '50s are about a half century too late for cocaine in sodas.

They were lying about the perjury. Even though they swore they wouldn't.

"Netflix and chill" but with a distinct lack of chill.

Yeah, the way I was suggesting would only work for one game at a time. You might be able to set something up with symlinks to make everything visible in a separate prefix for the mod manager, but that sounds like way more trouble to me.

I haven't done it a lot, but running a Windows mod manager in the same prefix as the game should work where there isn't a Linux native version available.

I had a similar thing happen recently following a NixOS upgrade. I wonder if it's something that changed in Firefox.

In my case, the solution was to set useEmbeddedBitmaps = true in fontconfig. Which is unlikely to be directly helpful to you on Fedora, but maybe there's an equivalent option somewhere?

I've seen ¤ used as a currency mark in games. Dwarf Fortress is the one that comes to mind, but I feel like I've seen it elsewhere as well.
