Using the same password (no matter how secure it is) for all accounts is a bad idea.

Assuming you have at least 20 accounts with sensible data, and you don't even remember that 5 of them exist.

Now shittywebsite.xy gets hacked and all data is unencrypted and unhashed.

So now [email protected] with yourSecu4ePassPhrase is leaked.

You now quickly try to change the password on 15 accounts with the same email and password. But you forgot the 5 accounts you made years ago. Now after some time hackers login into the the old accounts and get your credit card info or whatever.

Great idea!

Yes my password manager is a single point of failure, but it is one I personally control and have the view over.

What do they need grenade launchers for???

With a weird mind you could excuse single target weapons, but grenades? Do you want want to free some seats early?

The main advantage of a password manager is that you can have a different password for each account. Which means in case of a leak you won't be in risk of losing other accounts.

And I don't think I want to remember 300 pass phrases with different words.

Hahahaha. Lacht in Land.

Mein Fahrplan ist so:

Unter der Woche (wenn keine Ferien sind) fährt um 6 nochwas einer in Richtung "Stadt" um nochwas fährt der nächste.

Zurück fährt dann um 13 Uhr einer und um 17 Uhr.

Ansonsten gibt es ein Ruftaxi mit mehreren Stunden Vorlaufzeit.

If you are American, no. If you are from a civilised country, yes.

Ich setze immer ne Tüte auf. Dann seh ich zwar nix, aber werde nicht geblendet.

Man hört wo man fährt.

Who the fuck is going to read even 10% of that wall of text?

I got no time for that.

All I heard about call centers is: If you need longer than 30 seconds to close a call you really need a good reason. And it will be marked negatively in your report.

You should be able to handle thousands of calls as fast as possible, so they can only pay a few people in order to handle people calling.

In Germany the employer isn't even allowed to ask what is the reason for your sickness. So you can just call in sick and that's it.

So I started using nixos as a daily driver several months ago.

At first it was nice using the life disk to install it. I really liked the options you could choose. The only the thing it misses is the information that it will install systemd bootloader and I don't have the option to install grub2.

Then when I used it I had to learn that I needed to switch my flatpaks back to the system packages since nix had almost all of them too. And nix packages work better in nix. Even though flatpak is sandboxed sth. in nixos makes some of them break.

I could usually install my software just by using the existing packages, but if not available I started learning nix-shell amd nix in general.

This is when I realised I can't recommend nixos to normal people. If for any reason you need to install sth. that is not in the packages you are fucked. Usually it is easier to get a docker running than to learn nixos and setup a working nix-shell. However once you have a nix-shell to compile some c program you definitely have a deeper understanding of nixos and the program.

I often break my systems by tinkering around. So this was a great experience in nixos since I could go back several generations to a working one and continue from there.

However the last weeks I managed to break nixos! Even going back several generations didn't help. Probably going back several weeks may have worked, but I decided to reinstall instead.

So my problem was basically that I updated from 23.11 to 24.05.

I wanted to update since I was on unstable for razer stuff since I need current drivers.

However once I managed to get the update working i wasn't able to login into x11 anymore and Wayland seems inperformant in gaming. I also have other issues with Wayland.

The next thing was that I wanted to use an amd gpu for gpu-passthrough in a vm and therefore had a Nvidia and amd gpu present. However the system booted into the amd gpu and only after login switched to the Nvidia one.

If I blacklisted the drivers of amd I would not get a sddm log in screen anymore. Nothing I did fixed that. Removing the amd gpu didn't help. Going back to the novau drivers worked but I couldn't use them since they are broken as well.

After tinkering around a lot I finally decided to reinstall the current nixos image.

So life image it is again. Automatically loads Wayland. If I assume correctly with novau drivers. I installed everything however during the installation process the gui broke. (Wayland and novau don't work well I guess. Fuck Nvidia) And even though through tty I could see when it was finished I couldn't boot into the system.

So I rebooted the life disk and then logged out switched to x11 and reinstalled again. This time it worked. I then used my old configuration and only updated to plasma6 since I already installed that on the new installation.

And to my surprise it just worked. Everything was like before. X11 working and so on.

So while I managed to break nixos it is in fact just as easy to reinstall again and configure like before.
