overview for Dehydrated

Hey guys, I'm pretty new to Nix and NixOS and one of the reasons I installed it is because I know there's some way to install the KDE 6 Beta before the official stable release. I wanted to use the kde2nix overlay, but appearantely KDE 6 has been merged into the official nixpkgs repository. How do I switch from Plasma 5 to 6? I'm already on the unstable channel if that matters.

Thanks in advance.

Fedora members plan on creating a Cosmic Desktop Spin in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] Dehydrated@lemmy.world 54 points 4 months ago

This would be awesome. Fedora has really been one of the best distros lately, hopefully they don't get fucked by Red Hat in the future.

India may block Proton Mail in c/technology@lemmy.world

They probably sent the threats themselves to justify banning Proton Mail, because they want to destroy privacy and encryption.

Why are only 11 senators in support of this?

Keep using adblockers and don't surrender your digital freedom to big tech corporations. Also check out private frontends for YouTube (and other plattforms: https://www.privacyguides.org/en/frontends/

Why pay for an OpenAI subscription? in c/programmer_humor@programming.dev

[-] Dehydrated@lemmy.world 112 points 5 months ago

They probably wanted to save money on support staff, now they will get a massive OpenAI bill instead lol. I find this hilarious.

Haier, the air conditioner maker, takes down open source third-party Home Assistant integration in c/homeassistant@lemmy.world

[-] Dehydrated@lemmy.world 65 points 5 months ago

Still a ridiculous move. If I buy an appliance, I pay for it and I own it. I am allowed to do with it whatever I want. If I want to use my own solution for controlling it, hosted on my own server, I should have every right to do so. Fuck corporations and their shitty cloud solutions.

[-] Dehydrated@lemmy.world 92 points 5 months ago

Yeah they have no legal basis for their ridiculous claims and demands. This company is just full of shit.

Proton Mail says that the new Outlook app for Windows is Microsoft's new data collection service in c/technology@lemmy.world

[-] Dehydrated@lemmy.world 84 points 5 months ago

What part of Windows (or Microsoft software in general) is not a data collection service?

What are some interesting devices powered by Linux? in c/linux@lemmy.ml

[-] Dehydrated@lemmy.world 79 points 5 months ago

All 3 billion Android devices in the world. It's pretty crazy when you think about it. Also 96% of the top 1 million web servers and all of the 500 fastest super computers (excluding quantum) in the world.

No, absolutely not. Security through obscurity hasn't worked for decades.
