Has anybody played Cookie Clicker? Articles like these really give me a similar vibe as the news ticker in that game. It starts a bit innocent like “Your cookies are talked about for miles around” but you’re already on the slope to “Elder gods from the whole cosmos have awoken to taste your cookies” and the eldritch-like horrors of the Grandmapocalypse. Just a fun parallel.
Surprised nobody said this yet, but I use ansible. I also use it to have the same install on multiple machines independently (something that doesn’t work by just having a dedicated home partition).
But it’s a bit of maintenance to keep modifying my dotfiles, certainly not as easy as your old apps aisle.
