  1. Yesterday was the day @KaisenLinux saved my … system.

    During an `apt-get upgrade` my laptop ran out of disk space…
    which left me with an `apt` with broken ELF headers (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executab if you are curious).

    In other words: I could neither remove software nor upgrade.
    So … worst case scenario.

    Luckily #KaisenLinux is using #btrfs as file system. I was able to boot from a snapshot (as Live environment) and restore from known-good state using #timeshift! Phew.

    Up and running in a few hrs

  2. Yay! 🥳

    I could get #crimpy to build again!
    Which means that now on #Debian / #KaisenLinux I can pick up developing my desktop program again.

    There is still some circular dependency to resolve and gettext to re-initialise but I'm positive.

    Perhaps I can look into different UI kits again (#Tkinter, #GTK4 and #PySide6 resp. #Qt).
    I'm excited! 🕺

  3. It's official.

    I switched from #NixOS to #KaisenLinux (based on Debian).

    Although NixOS has some nice traits I can't stand to have the majority of my disk space occupied by nix store.

    Plus, Debian is better documented.
