Time to make a new update. Quite a few things happened lately:
[As I posted earlier](/posts/2019-09-08-Back-to-Debian.html) I had switched back
to Debian. This did not last long. After visiting
[NixCon](https://2019.nixcon.org/) and learning about all the cool new stuff
coming to NixOS (and after breaking my Debian system) I decided to give NixOS
another shot and installed it all. I even got my graphics setup to work
properly thanks to the Optimus Prime setup options.
Now I am learning how to handle
[haskell.nix](https://github.com/input-output-hk/haskell.nix), an alternative
builder for Haskell projects I learned about at NixCon. It works quite well,
despite still being marked as experimental. What I still struggle with, is the
setup of packages depending on other packages available only locally. Until I
can resolve this issue, some of my Haskell development is halted. If someone
has some resource at hand on how to achieve this other than the official docs,
I would be very grateful for a nudge in the right direction.
Some other thing, which happened longer ago, but I failed to announce properly:
Eidolon, my image gallery is down and I am planning to change the scope and
rewrite the project. I took the gallery offline after new legislation passed
2019-12-11 03:28:55 +00:00
the european parliament known as "Article 13", which would have forced me to
2019-12-08 14:07:04 +00:00
either implement content filtering for copyright infringements at upload or buy
this service externally. The first seems impossible with my resorces and the
latter I am not willing to do. So the gallery will change to a single-user
gallery software.
And this concludes today's update. I will be present at 36C3, so if you want to
get in touch, you may find me there. I will be most likely hanging around the
ChaosZone assembly or you can call me on DECT 6350.
