I have to say I *REALLY* enjoy this setup: MacBook Pro with Apple Silicon for portability, long battery life, good screen and physical security Remote Ubuntu + Nix for all development work. ssh from the MacBook, every project inside of a different tmux session. Currently on a Ryzen 9 7950x with 128GB RAM

Here’s how I set up a clean #Linux VPS for remote development:

dev

Dev Setup Install (Ubuntu)

My dev install script for Ubuntu, mostly used to setup a VPS dev env

When run on a fresh #Ubuntu 24.04 install it will… - set up a user (mz) - pull down all my ssh pubkeys - set zsh as the default shell - install #Nix with support for flakes - install *all* my tools with Nix via home-manager - set up #NeoVim, #fzf and other cli tools - install tailscale Less than 5 minutes from first ssh login to productive dev environment.

Spotted today in my gym #bitcoin

Number 1 reason I refuse to use #Linux on the desktop is that #Wayland support on #NVIDIA is still a hassle. Most of the things work but something simple as watching a full screen video in the browser is still painful.

In which cases do you guys use @SimpleX Chat over Signal? #asknostr

The Doc is back

I endorse and use proton.me products myself and also have a few @Proton Wallet invites to share if someone wants one. View quoted note →

I played 4 hours of CoD Black Ops 6 multiplayer beta via GeForce Now in 4k@120Hz and ~20ms latency. Cloud #gaming has gotten craaazy good!

Ok, I’m gonna try this for a month: I will replace my local development environment with a server environment. - #linux VPS with Ryzen 7950x (hopefully 9950x soon) - ssh over tailscale - tmux + #neovim I’m also gonna game exclusively on GeForce Now during that period.

Do I need to buy a domain if I want to setup a #nostr relay? I was thinking of setting one up for myself but don’t want to buy a public domain for it per se. Is a plain IPv4 address also fine?

Who to follow if I’m interested in #rust #go #cryptography #fuzzing and #linux / #nixos?
