 Emma [it/its] | is /nix mounted? | 08:52:59 |
 @iooioio:matrix.org | Implicitly, because root is mounted, yes:
$ sudo btrfs subvolume list /
ID 256 gen 216018 top level 5 path root
# snip
ID 792 gen 216018 top level 256 path nix

| @iooioio:matrix.org | Could it simply be a permissions thing? Should the socket be owned by someone else? | 09:07:42 |
| @iooioio:matrix.org | Ok, I think it might be a SELinux thing... | 10:19:06 |
| @iooioio:matrix.org | FTR, it was SELinux. I was able to fix it like this:
sudo restorecon -vR '/nix'
| 10:35:12 |
| @iooioio:matrix.org | I guess I should have included the SELinux extended attributes in my initial rsync command, like this:
$ sudo rsync -aX /nix.bak/ /nix

 hexa | the community is progressive rather than conservative | 00:11:58 |
| hexa | and is a result from the grievances that have been had with nix governance | 00:12:35 |
| hexa | which was often perceived as not open to onboarding anything but dudes | 00:13:35 |
| dr_teagle | this is why you shouldnt expose your gender/sex online imo. it is easier to work with when you are truly blind, and also make it impossible to know name, as names that "sound" like women cause the same biases. | 03:19:26 |
 ivy | yeah sorry im a woman | 03:22:43 |
| dr_teagle | ? | 03:23:02 |
| ivy | yeah my point is my name is woman already and cant hide it | 03:24:52 |
| ivy | unless i retuen to my old internet name auscyber | 03:25:06 |
| dr_teagle | fair enough I feared you were doing some 5d chess guilt trip manuever | 03:25:48 |
| ivy | no what | 03:26:12 |
| ivy | what would fhat mean | 03:26:24 |
| dr_teagle | I didnt know if you were saying "yeah sorry" to my suggestion, or to that you were a woman. if it was the later that would be kindof(?) a guilt-trip. | 03:27:55 |
| dr_teagle | I do that strategy when hurt like "I am sorry that I am different" as a lash out | 03:28:17 |
