I recently switched to nixos, because my ACME image was failing all of a sudden and I didn’t know enough what was going on under the hood to fix it.

It was a steep learning curve, but the infrastructure as code approach just works too well for me, since I just forget too much what I did three years ago, when doing things imperatively.

They’re the bee’s knees if you have a homelab, though.

Is this loss?

Lower right corner.

Is it a ripoff if they credit the original?

At the end of the day Adobe is the best choice because the alternatives are mostly not software dev and UI focused.

They’re probably also the only professional game in town because they patent every single UX enhancement. And with IP laws favouring no one but the biggest cheese, they cripple their competition by calling dibs on sensible UX ideas.

I get it. Fuck subscription based licences.

But I remember that you could keep the last version you subscribed to after subscription ended, which is way better (and the way Adobe products used to work).

Am I wrong? Or did they change that?
