Das aktuelle System ist halt auf Ertrag optimiert, dazu zählt eben auch, wie schnell und effizient geerntet werden kann. Und hier fallen Mischflächen wahrscheinlich sehr schnell raus.

Wahrscheinlich würden sich viele Probleme erledigen, wenn wir uns Methoden erlauben würden, die für eine Verdreifachung der Preise sorgen.

Das ist jetzt noch nicht einmal sarkastisch oder so gemeint. Aber das wird sich in einem kapitalistischen System außer kurz vor dem absoluten Zusammenbruch nicht umsetzen lassen. Wir schaffen es ja nicht mal, die Vorgaben zur Nitratbelastung im Grundwasser einzuhalten.

It's in the release notes, you add a Wayland driver to your prefix via registry entry and then unset DISPLAY before starting wine.

https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/releases/wine-9.0

The Wayland driver is not yet enabled by default. It can be enabled through the HKCU\Software\Wine\Drivers registry key by running:

wine reg.exe add HKCU\Software\Wine\Drivers /v Graphics /d x11,wayland

and then making sure that the DISPLAY environment variable is unset.

Note that the registry entry is per prefix.

I'm on 9.0 staging and can use wine with Wayland, but not everything works, window bars etc look somewhat off and some games don't start at all, like Stardew Valley. Other games I tried failed to hide the cursor. Others worked just fine.

Western society is in no way closer to that point. What you're reading is the counterpoint to "a glass of wine a day is good for your health" when in fact it's not. People ask "how much can I drink without it affecting my health" and the honest answer is nothing. You're obviously right that any substance is more dangerous the higher the amount. You also can't tell beforehand what the exact risk is because this is a statistical question. But just because the outcome is not perfectly predictable doesn't mean there's no risk.

You can even use cp of I recall correctly, dd allows to tune some parameters but it's not strictly necessary.

Imagine your child coming out as Republican. I'd be devastated

A rather tame and boring release, which is perfectly fine after the bomb that was 9.0

Was the game being too complex actually a common complaint?

I meant that just because I don't know about it doesn't mean that it isn't possible.

They cover a few things -- most notably they replace channels, which are imperative.

True. I never considered channels imperative, but rather a purity issue. But I guess this is a matter of perspective.

Unless I'm way off, you can also install user software through flakes if you add them as inputs.

I don't know about this, but that doesn't mean anything.

You can also pull a repo and 'nix run .#software' from the command-line, without entering a shell.

True, though this by default only runs the default binary, and you're probably in a shell anyways, so it doesn't save that much. Also that output is, to my knowledge, not protected by garbage collection. But my knowledge of any imperative stuff is minimal, so I don't know if that's the case there.

I don't think flakes can do much more declarative than "legacy" nix, rather they increase reproducibility and purity. Also their tooling doesn't offer imperative stuff by default, but I'm not sure they cover use cases previously solved imperatively. E.g. I don't think you can install user software through a flake. Sure you can create shells with software available, but that is also possible without flakes.

Maybe my understanding here is wrong though.

NixOS itself by default isn't fully declarative anyways, nix-env for example is imperative and very comparable to flatpak regarding applications.

I welcome the efforts to move away from all imperative bits in NixOS though. My point was rather not to dismiss an article on NixOS for mentioning flatpaks.
