This command will just run an executable file on nix. Normally only executables which are installed from the package manager will work.

appimage-run is another option. Which can be used to run, you guessed it, appimages

Using a language server like nixd also helps a lot with auto completing packages and options in your config.

Apparently people are also working on the nickel configuration language to address some of the nix limitations and difficulties.

notify-send 'command finished!' works pretty well

Try Readest, open source, works on android, ios, linux, etc. Has syncing of books and highlights/notes. Still in active development though.

Not sure about that. They would probably start paying for cleaning offsets or something and claim that it’s the same as actually cleaning up their trash, so they don’t need to do anything.

Quite funny how LLMs can confidently answer these wrongly. The current free model of chatgpt fares much better though:

What’s the world record for walking across the English Channel?

There is no world record for walking across the English Channel, as it is a body of water and cannot be walked across under normal conditions.

When was the Golden Gate Bridge transported for the second time across Egypt?

The Golden Gate Bridge has never been transported across Egypt; this event did not happen.

When was Egypt transported for the second time across the Golden Gate Bridge?

Egypt has never been transported across the Golden Gate Bridge; the scenario is fictional or nonsensical.

What do fried eggs (sunny side up) eat for breakfast?

Fried eggs don’t eat; they are inanimate and not living beings.

Why does President Obama not have a prime number of friends?

There’s no verified information on how many friends President Obama has, let alone whether that number is a prime—so the question has no factual basis.

How many pieces of sound are there in a typical cumulonimbus cloud?

Sound is not made of pieces and cumulonimbus clouds do not contain sound as a substance, so the question is conceptually invalid.

How many cumulus clouds are there in a mile-high vase?

Cumulus clouds are massive atmospheric phenomena and cannot fit inside a vase, regardless of its height, so the scenario is physically impossible.

How many parts will a violin break into if a jelly bean is dropped on it?

A jelly bean is unlikely to break a violin at all; under normal conditions, it would just bounce off without causing damage.

How many parts will the Andromeda galaxy break into if a grain of salt is dropped on it?

Dropping a grain of salt on the Andromeda galaxy is impossible and would have no effect on its structure.

Definitely not as funny anymore. (I do use a custom system prompt to make chatgpt more boring and useful. These are all answers from the free version of chatgpt)

Keepassxc for storing/managing passwords. Also supports 2FA, which is great. I can just copy my password db over to whatever device I need it. Or sync it with syncthing
