At the time you first install the system do: "yay -Qqe >newinstalls.txt" which will create a list of installed packages. Then later you can do it again but to another file: "yay -Qqe >nowinstalls.txt". Then do: "diff newinstalls.txt nowinstalls.txt" which will give you a list of the differences between the two.

Low carb diet. I count carbs and keep the daily total below 70g and try to keep it closer to 30g per day. My peak weight was 235# and I am now at 172#.

I'm very happy to see OSM moving in the vector tiles direction. I was glad to contribute.

NIXOS. It has a very steep learning curve without acceptable documentation and once I climbed the learning curve, I realized that it was very different from the Linux that I love.

NIXOS is definitely not for me. The documentation sucks and there are less cumbersome ways to restore a system.

Lotus was so intent on protecting their revenue stream from software piracy that they built copy protection into the program. If the program was copied from one drive to another, it would not run. So if one bought a new computer or if the hard drive failed, the program could not be transferred to a new drive. The first versions of the software were pretty buggy too. I always visualized a Lotus company with a few programmers and many lawyers. They finally included a floppy disk that would allow a very limited number of copies, but still a PITA.
