Source on the second statement? My understanding was that nix-shell is legacy for systems without flakes and nix-command enabled, and are being replaced by nix shell/run/develop

Careful, there's three different terms in the mix here:

NixOS: an entire operating system, you don't need this.

nix: the nix package manager. This is what you'll need to install. look for single user install in the instructions.

home-manager: a module for nix. It's aim is to allow declarative configuration of a users' home configuration (and allow easier per-user install of packages on a global nix install).

If you want to go down the nix route, which I would recommend if you enjoy tinkering and having fine control over your system, you should start with installing nix. With that, you can already setup a shell that has the newest version of python available.

Going beyond that, I can link you some more resources, if you want c:

Mostly play PF2e nowadays, but I'm open to other systems. I get the feeling that some people use DnD as a shorthand for all TTRPGs tho

That's not how this works. That's not how any of this works. That's like saying plastic is renewable because you can recycle part of it

Nuclear is a centralised, slow and expensive technology. If we had built it up 50 years ago, we wouldn't be so dependent on coal today, that much is true. But to get away from coal now, we need investment in renewables.

The energy companies who own the coal plants often are the same that own the nuclear plants. And they're afraid that the grid becomes less centralised. I don't buy that conspiracy about coal suppressing nuclear. Nuclear isn't an economically viable technology today (and might not ever be) without huge government subsidies in perpetuity.

hell yeah, þorn and eð user in the wild!

alþough I stand by the opinion þat þe voiced-voicless distinction between þorn and eð is someþing superimposed onto English later on, as eð and þorn were used interchangeably for a time and it was more a question of time period raþer þan voicedness

Putting aside clean for now, what part of nuclear is renewable again?

I've only ever really heard it for a handful of very specific nouns, like Maus -> Mausi as an affectionate nickname

The lines don't show popular vote, but chance to win. And either Trump or Harris is going to win, so p(Harris) = 1 - p(Trump). The lines must mirror each other. Since polls always have uncertainties and current events influence voting behaviors, of course the exact percentages fluctuate.

That sounds really wrong. Is that a southern thing?
