Buenas,

Hoy me salió una urgencia en la que debo utilizar firma digital, pero me daba pereza bootear Windows 11 en una máquina virtual para poder firmar un PDF, por lo que decidí que mi tiempo y dinero serían mejor gastados en empaquetar los programas y certificados CA de firma digital que están disponibles para Ubuntu 24, pero para NixOS (distro GNU/Linux de la que soy usuario).

Aquí el paquete: https://radicle.network/nodes/jardin.jorgearaya.dev/rad:z3YkDws5EsBLkbzbbrjzrzB775AJX/tree/packages/firma-digital-cr/

Mi perfil en NUR: https://nur.nix-community.org/repos/elzorrorebelde/ El paquete debería aparecer ahí en varias horas, señalando que estaría disponible para instalar. (El motivo de la tardanza es debido a que el repositorio Git retornando errores 504)

¿Cómo se instala? Bueno, si es usuario de NixOS, debería agregar NUR como input si usa Flake (si no usa Flakes, pues, no tengo ni idea de cómo podría hacerle):

{
  inputs = {
    # otros inputs que pueda tener ud...
      nur = {
        url = "github:nix-community/NUR";
        inputs.nixpkgs.follows = "nixpkgs";
      };
  };

  # ... el resto de su flake
  # por favor tome en cuenta que NUR ofrece un overlay para que
  # los paquetes disponibles aparezcan en pkgs.nur.<usuario>.<paquete>
}

Y en su configuración, iría más o menos asi:

{ pkgs, ... }:

let
  f = pkgs.nur.repos.elzorrorebelde.firma-digital-cr;
  certDir = "${f.ca-certificates}/etc/ssl/certs";
in
{
  nixpkgs.config.allowUnfree = true;

  environment.systemPackages = with f; [ idopte idocachesrv agente-gaudi ];

  services.pcscd.enable = true;

  security.pki.certificateFiles =
  map (name: "${certDir}/${name}") (builtins.attrNames (builtins.readDir certDir));
}

Actualmente hay 6 paquetes:

• agente-gaudi
• idopteQue vendría siendo un programa para gestionar su tarjeta de firma digital
• idocachesrv el demonio que es necesario si quiere firmar desde Firefox/Chrome
• nautilus-extension que no me queda claro si funciona o no porque no soy usuario de GNOME, pero sirve para firmar cosas desde Nautilus
• ca-certificates que serían los certificados CA que vienen en el ZIP para Ubuntu 24 LTS
• pkcs11 lo que deben cargar Firefox/Chrome para poder firmar desde el navegador

Bueno, eso sería. Pura vida

by 'trad compatible' I mean 'Catholic' as understood in the light of Tradition.

Estoy viendo la posibilidad de alquilar un carro por 12 meses, pero antes quisiera saber si aquí hay gente que ha arrendado un carro con renting.cr

for reason unknown to me, some songs have their genres separated by `;`, right now I'm checking songs with genre `Punk Rock;Pop Punk;Punk;Skate Punk;Melodic Hardcore;Rock;Ska Punk;Comedy Rock;Grunge;Alternative Rock` (yes, the hole string is the genre).

I've been trying to fix this issue today by locating all albums with this problem and updating them in MusicBrainz.org, then asking Lidarr to refresh and Jellyfin to download the metadata again. But before that I tried using a Python script to address the issue in the files themselves.

I'm honestly tired of seeing such mounstrosity, anything I do doesn't work so far.

Any suggestions?

>For me, the turnaround came, not when I recognized pornography as evil or unhealthy, but when I could laugh at it as stupid. Once I felt the aristocrat within me scorn my own actions, the moral leap seemed genuinely possible. It was less akin to the moment of moral decision and more akin to the moment you first realized that your emo haircut was stupid. I realized that I was not on the side of pornography — I was too good for it. It was, in short, a conversion of taste, one that allowed me to take a critical distance towards pornography, and thus begin the fundamentally moral work of rejecting it.

At work, I have to use Windows 11 for my daily tasks. I'm free to use GNU Emacs so I do that (it's the only text editor I have used every day since 2011 A.D.). If I say Emacs is slow on Windows, I wouldn't be saying anything new, so something was done about it.

However, I'm puzzled by Magit, because despite the improvements in performance one can apply on Emacs for Windows, it still takes time to execute something like `M-x` `magit-status` `r` `e` `[branch name]` `RET`... like 3 to 4 seconds total; that's the time it takes to execute a rebase. To do other things like pulling or pushing, it takes around the same amount of time. It is even slow if I want to turn on options in those operations (it takes time to activate `--force` when pushing).

Is there anything that can be done about it on Windows, or is this how Magit is supposed to work in such an OS?

well, some time has passed, and I kept dogfooding this Emacs starter kit. Currently I'm ensuring Emacs brings the best performance on Windows since I'm half the time on Windows 11 for work. Sophos is not making things easy, so the last resort with that was asking IT to add exceptions to Sophos to mitigate performance issues with Magit... Anyway, that branch is still in need of more work, and this post is for announcing what I already have on master.

If you want to know what gears exist and what's turned on by default, use C-h B to open the backpack inventory.

I invite you to give Backpack a try and tell me what you think and how I can improve on it. The downside of being the only user is that I can accommodate Backpack for other usages that people have!

Edit

oh, and yes, I made amends in the source code to avoid envrc loading when it exists at backpack-emacs-dir (the equivalent of user-emacs-directory in Backpack), something annoying and that people may find uncomfortable to have there in their machines.
