The Citroën Berlingo really is one of the best cars they made

The c15 is an icon too, such a classic, produced from 1984 until 2006, it can carry almost as much as it weights. And it was designed to fit a full euro palette in the back https://images.caradisiac.com/images/0/9/8/4/190984/S0-route...

There is this amazing Twitter thread comparing the Citroen C15 (a design from the 1980s) to a modern American pickup and a modern British SUV, with the Citroen blowing them out of the water in most scenarios: https://twitter.com/jmaris_/status/1570889945551863808

Aha that's amazing. It would be nice to retrofit them with electric engines, but I doubt that would be commercially feasible, as much as I love them I wouldn't want to crash in that above 20kph

Yeah, Stellantis just need to release a new one. They quote the C15 in the "more than 90 years in utility vehicles" press releases for their new (optionally electric) Citroen utility vehicles: https://www.media.stellantis.com/ch-fr/citroen/press/citroen...

Nix/Nixpkgs blocks unfree packages by default, so I presume it would be relatively easy to disable packages with the `unFree` attribute.

It's the pragmatic thing. I wouldn't use nixOS if I wasn't able to use it on a 16 core modern desktop. I don't think there's a performant and 100% FLOSS compatible computer that wouldn't make me want to gouge my eyes out with a rusty spoon when building stuff for ARM.

Talos has 44 core/176 thread server options which can take 2 TBs of DDR4 that are FSF certified. The board firmware is also open and has reproducible builds.

That is way more expensive than a 16-core desktop, though. Workstations are a class above consumer-grade desktops and that's reflected in the price.

Talos have as low as 8 core desktop options as well this is just an example of how far you can take FLOSS hardware. Not that I consider a 16 core x86 desktop "consumer-grade" in the first place (speaking as a 5950X owner).

Probably not fit for replacing Grandma's budget PC but then again grandma probably isn't worried about the ARM cross compile performance of their machine running NixOS either.

Okay, now I'm interested :)

(I am worried about the ARM cross compile performance of my machine running NixOS)

Thanks, I was legitimately unaware of this option. That does smash my argument, but I'm not likely to be using a system like that anytime soon due to cost concerns mostly.

And it’s not just hardware, there is a useful limit on purity of licenses. In many cases only proprietary programs can do the work at all, or orders of magnitudes better.

As an added bonus, Nix can still easily output a container image for docker use containing the same shell environment.

I would say so. Just like GTK is native on GNOME but definitely not on Windows. "native" (to me) really just means whatever the system is designed for.

Then Windows 10 apparently lacks a native GUI toolkit, because it's certainly not "designed for" just one.

A similar thing happened to Android.

> Then Windows 10 apparently lacks a native GUI toolkit, because it's certainly not "designed for" just one.

Windows 10 has several native GUI toolkits. The same thing happened in MacOS, which transitioned from Carbon to Cocoa.

If the widgets are drawn by a toolkit that isn't bundled with the OS, it's a non-native GUI. Of course, this isn't always a bad move.

One could argue Win32 is still the de-facto GUI toolkit in Win10. Things like .NET Windows Forms and (non-WinUI3) UWP are actually rendered with Win32 common controls.

WIN32 isn't de facto it is the canonical API for Windows. It always has been, since like the 1980's.

Indeed, but with some exceptions. .NET SWF shipped with extremely kludgy drawn clones of toolbars and menu bars instead of using the native ones (although the native ones were later exposed) and the result is that those particular controls on SWF apps did not age gracefully (DPI problems, system theme mismatch, scroll acceleration issues, etc). That’s the kind of thing Qt would also face with drawn components skinned to look like the real deal.

I'm currently building a website with this kind of rectangular design language and I'm really digging it.

My web app was rocking squared off design circa 2014. In 2018 we hired a designer and the first order of business was to round all the things. I hated it! But, our users loved it. Strange world.

The Google play framework is closed source and used by most apps.

This paragraph might also just mean they use data from an organisation like Oxfam for example.

There seem to be filters for several ethical labels (vegan, fair trade, …)

If you filter by those and still find that this product has a shorter lifespan than comparable products then idk.

The Unicode arrow looks smaller and is positioned lower, while the ligature has the same size as -> with the dash extended into the 'arrow'. Not that I use this frequently.
