I just recently found out about FieldStation42. It takes quite a bit of configuring, but I really like the idea.

I just used NixOS daily for maybe a month? I really love how it’s designed, but I had to give up because there were just so many small fixes I had to do and I found myself banging my head against the wall when I couldn’t build something that depended on python-tk. You will see this criticism around a lot, but the documentation just isn’t there yet. If you try to search for a fix, the packages have changed how they’re configured since a solution was posted or they depend on a Nix flake which 50% of searches say not to use because it’s experimental and 50% are all in on flakes.
I have since moved back to Arch, but I’ve started to use the nix package manager for some cases since you can on-demand non-permanently install a package.


Same here. Tuxedo Infinity Flex. The microphone has a prominent hiss and the webcam is very grainy. It will freeze if pressure is applied in just the wrong place. I support the mission, but I don’t know if it was worth the price.


On the other end, they need to move the camera to the bottom of the screen so people with bifocals stop using only the bottom third of the camera.
Are there modern alternatives without a touchscreen? I bought a FiiO M11 a long time ago and I do light it but I would much prefer a no frills, purely button (or wheel) control player. Ideally, I could put Rockbox on it.
