AI that can auto generate all those command line arguments I keep forgetting? Sure.

Closed source terminal that requires account? No way.

What social contract? When sites regularly have a robots.txt that says "only Google may crawl", and are effectively helping enforce a monolopy, that's not a social contract I'd ever agree to.

We had Ansible, containers, ZFS and BTRFS that provided all the required immutability needed already but someone decided that is is time to transform proven development techniques

Just so you know, NixOS is older than all of these, actually. And for that matter, no less flexible.

I'm just guessing, but you can try brackets around xclip -o | wl-copy in the long command.

Exactly! Many of the criteria included aren't all that good for new users, and neither are the suggestions. It's not really a good resource for experienced users either.

Well, when you get from 3 to 2000 in only a few years, the vast majority of these versions will be unusable. No wonder they had to drop everything after 11...

That said, you can use a third party service only for sending, but receive mail on your self-hosted server.

Stop asking for pseuso-privacy features. The Fediverse is public by nature. Any "measures" to control access to the public posts on it are just lying to users.

Server owners should be able to control who can access their servers - but that is NOT - and should NOT be - treated as a privacy feature.

I don't know where this myth came from, but you don't have a right to erase your public posts from there internet under GDPR. See, for example, https://law.stackexchange.com/questions/32361/does-a-user-have-the-right-to-request-their-forum-posts-deleted

If anything, you might have such rights under copyright law, if your posts cover the threshold for copyright. In that case, you can ask server admins to delete them, and they will have to comply. But the request has to reach them (if they're defederated, the delete button won't teach them, and you'll have to contact them separately).

After you're done with the initial setup, I've found looking for nix code on GitHub to be very useful for seeing how to do things.

Indeed, my first though was that these are not MY questions.

That's only US courts. Other countries don't even have a procedure for registering copyrights.
