I had an yearly experience with Nix, but I'm thinking that it is overhead for just a home PC system. You may have more pain with static linkage compared to benefits of Nix reproducability and flexibility. Now is a year I'm on the Fedora Silverblue and this one is a really good balance between complexity and usability.

It is the same question as "What are trustworthy countries" imo

How it works when OpenJDK is distributed under GNU GPL?

Did you read the article? It is about people arrested by Israel's officials. Some of them are released after without being even tried. Sometimes they are released without a leg, for example, because in Israel's hospitals they did not gave him treatment. How a person, who is shakled to the hospital bed can "just go to Egypt"?

The problem is that personalization of search results tends to information bubbles. That is the reason why I prefer DDG over Google.

Also, is there any plan to provide binaries and builds? Especially for Android, for example, via F-Droid?

To be honest, I do not understand, why people try to judge quotes by its authors. If Adolf Hitler once said that Erarth is round, the authorship doesn't make this quote automatically false. Even bloody dictators can say sometimes something truly, whats the problem here?

I left the country after the war. So, for me it changed significantly... But I'm a wrong person to ask how is it now. In my understanding it is bad.

To be honest, for me it looks as very strange pattern.. If one wants to have static container with functions, there is Enums or classes.

Hello, community! I saw in one video that tires and wheel weight are critical for the fast cycling. But how important is it for the tourism? For example, I'm using "hard" slick tires from Kenda (on the photo) that are great for asphalt roads and are very strong against small stones, plant spines and glasa pieces. The problem is weight about 600g (700x32c). I also have 700x32c soft and lightweight gravel tires with only 300g weight. But how important is it for cycling if I have about 10 additional kilograms of bags on top of my bike when I go into a long trip? Does it make sense to lose the durability and dril resistance of Kenda Kwest 700x32c for decreasing the weight of tires twice? Thanks in advance!

I was going to upgrade my bike (Decathlon Triban 100) and ordered the whole new groupset (Shimano SORA). It will be delivered soon, so my question is how hard is the replacing process? It is not a problem to pay in local bike service for the replacement but I'm also interested in trying by myself. I have a repairment kit and all the things, I like to make some maintenance of bike by mysleft but I didn't do so complex maintenance before.

Is there any android app or web app with movie ratings and reviews? Android app would be better. Alternative to imdb? I want to be able to fast check the rating of movie or list of actors. I know about wikipedia app but it's interface is not focused on movies. Thanks in advance!

Hi there!

I'm relatively new to anarchism, so I'd like to ask a few questions. I was very inspired by the book by F. Hayek (The Road to Serfdom) which changed my mind and convinced me why regulation doesn't work. Before this book I believed in the world trend towards regulation for the common good. Now I'm looking for a more general book on why government doesn't work at all. What can you recommend? I'm an engineer and prefer more economic and less philosophical books (like one by F. Hayek). Is there anything like that?

And more generally, what is the general opinion on private property in the anarchist community? I tried to google it but found controversial views. I know there are left-wing (Geoism/Georgism?) and right-wing (anarcho-capitalism?), but I think there should be something common about the property question...

Thanks in advance!

Built in 1965 according to the design of Ivan Antić and Ivanka Raspopović. According to the design, the building should look like a crystal. It was renovated in 2007-2017. When the renovation began, one of the architects of the original project was still alive and participated in the renovation.

Compared to other examples of Yugoslavian modernism, this building is in very good condition and is well maintained. Also the surrounding area of the park is very human friendly compared to examples of Yugoslavian Brutalism, which looks more like some kind of ghetto.

Near the building there are benches and monuments in the modernist style:

Genex Tower (or Western City Gate) is one of the most famous examples of Yugoslavian brutalism architecture. The sky scraper was built in 1979 by architect Mihajlo Mitrović. The left part of the building contained apartments and the right part was suited for offices. In communist era there was the office of "Generalexport" here but today the right side is used as a stand for advertisements.

On the top there was a rotating restaurant here but today it is closed as I know.

Even being in a very bad condition the building still inspires, and you have a lot of controversial feelings when you stay nearby.

One may say that the building dominates and suppresses surroundings but it is a common for almost all modernist architecture.

Built in 1935 by architect Dragiša Brašovan. Nice example of socialist modernism architecture of the period between world wars. Compared to after WWII Yuguslavian modernist architecture that was inspired by Le Corbusier, this building looks like more Art Deco style. Especially these window elements:

On the other side of the building there are statue of Icarus, the work of the sculptor Zlata Markov:

Entrance group is looking like this today:

Building was heavily damaged in 1999 and now looks abandoned. More information in wikipedia.

Built in 1969 by architect Lavoslav Horvat. A nice example of socialist modernism in architecture and Yugoslavian architecture. In communist-era it was used for foreign delegation and diplomats but it is semi-abandoned today and, as I know, is not used as a hotel anymore. More information may be found in wikipedia.
