Unfortunately large e-ink monitors cost as much as an Apple Studio Display...

Hopefully high refresh rate, color e-ink displays become solid enough soon that it becomes a worthy contender to backlit displays and the price drops. Obviously it wouldn't replace every backlit display because they have their place but for 99% of the stuff I do, e-ink would be way better

i'm really sad i got rid of my 12 mini. the only thing that made me switch was the usb-c on the 15 - if the mini had usb-c i'd never have switched

Right now, I've got Bluefin on my laptop and NixOS on a mini pc and I'll continue to build out my configuration on there until I feel like it's ready to put on my laptop.

All of that's to say that Bluefin is still probably my favorite project, regardless of my use of NixOS.

That being said, NixOS is very abrasive to me. The mess of documentation is hard to follow. It ships with GNU Nano as the default editor, which I'm not a fan of. The syntax is sometimes impossible to follow.

I'm still going to use it, though.

NixOS has what I want: stability with options.

Universal Blue (what Bluefin is built on) provides this too, but it's all Dockerfiles and Bash scripts. I don't hate this approach, but I've made system configuration scripts before (on Alpine Linux) and it was a bit tedious to write and maintain

I got a software engineering job which takes up most of my time nowadays. In the meantime I've been building a homelab and riding bikes. It's been nice... I still plan on visiting here infrequently but I've missed it

I'm often disappointed when I visit a website and it's not Club Penguin
