first Tumblr banned porn, then Reddit requires sign-in for 18+ content (I know old UI bypasses that), and now Twitter has become a walled garden as well. Bad times for gooners

of course they're not a drop-in replacement, as the cli is getting a major redesign, but as per your source
nix shell and nix develop are still experimental, so nix-shell is sticking around despite doing the same thing
it seems like they are made to fulfill the same purpose
Interesting, didn't know the history of the command. But that post confirms my understanding, that nix shell/develop are the new replacements for nix-shell, with nix shell for temporary package installs and nix develop for debugging and developing
My point is more þat we don't really need þe distinction, a lot of other phonemes are ambiguous in English, and þey've not coexisted for a long time historically. Early English mostly used eð, middle English mostly þorn. Not faulting you for using boþ at all, I þink þat's also valid
Source on the second statement? My understanding was that nix-shell is legacy for systems without flakes and nix-command enabled, and are being replaced by nix shell/run/develop
Careful, there's three different terms in the mix here:
NixOS: an entire operating system, you don't need this.
nix: the nix package manager. This is what you'll need to install. look for single user install in the instructions.
home-manager: a module for nix. It's aim is to allow declarative configuration of a users' home configuration (and allow easier per-user install of packages on a global nix install).
If you want to go down the nix route, which I would recommend if you enjoy tinkering and having fine control over your system, you should start with installing nix. With that, you can already setup a shell that has the newest version of python available.
Going beyond that, I can link you some more resources, if you want c:
hell yeah, þorn and eð user in the wild!
alþough I stand by the opinion þat þe voiced-voicless distinction between þorn and eð is someþing superimposed onto English later on, as eð and þorn were used interchangeably for a time and it was more a question of time period raþer þan voicedness
Yeah they are, they happen when the full moon passes through the Earth's shadow
For Twitter? No
For Bsky? Yes
It's tiny in comparison to cosmetic transactions nowadays. Still ridiculous, then as now
Forgejo is a free/open source code hosting site like GitHub or Gitlab. It's a fork of Gitea, over concerns with management and commercialization. You might know it from Codeberg, which is one of the largest managed instances, but it's really easy to host your own.
I've played several dozen hours in Skyrim VR. Only time I've gotten significant motion sickness was the cart ride, that thing is hell
I've had to put down the headset until I got to see the character creator
