- also you can use https://github.com/krtab/agnos if you don't have any api access

Proceeds to link to a website whose source code is hosted by kiwifarms. If you are blocked, that's because most of us don't want to interact with the "free speech" crowd, that's pretty much it.

Now that's hilarious (that's a link to https://chaos.social/@hexa/114009069746212598 )

- Because nixos.wiki was the primary source, until very recently. Then, wiki.nixos.org was introduced, and mass edits were made (without the owner of nixos.wiki being ok with that) trying to redirect people from nixos.wiki to wiki.nixos.org, and now both co-exist.
Reminds me a bit the archlinux.fr vs wiki.archlinux.org fr wiki situation from 10 years ago.
- This is France, stop expecting the legal system to work like in the US. Dude was arrested on a /sunday/, and we have a thing called violation of the secrecy of the investigation (yeah, often, it's not respected, but still).
He is presumed innocent, and if there is a trial, it will be public.
- Phones can also transmit beacons. The same as laptops, actually, some of them constantly broadcast BLE beacons.
The signature is based on physical layer characteristics, according to the linked paper : « They result in two measurable metrics in BLE and WiFi transmissions: Carrier Frequency Offset (CFO) and I/Q imperfections, specifically: I/Q offset and I/Q imbalance. ».
Yes, you would probably need SDR to do this tracking, but SDR are generally not this expensive.

- It is true. The original post writes about reproducing the minimal iso, which contains probably around 1% of the packages in nixpkgs. The remaining packages are not tested regarding binary reproducibility, or, at least, not in a systematic manner, which means regressions may happen regularly (which is exactly what happened with the .iso, see the previous announcement from 2021: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nixos-unstable-s-iso-minimal-x... .)
- For those wondering : it should be remembered that the reproducibility of Nix / NixOS / Nixpkgs is only a reproducibility of the sources: if the sources change, one is warned, but it is not a question of the reproducibility of the binaries (which can change at each build). This binary reproducibility of Nix / NixOS / Nixpkgs is indeed not really tested, at least not systematically.
Guix, Archlinux, Debian do the binary reproducibility better than Nix / NixOS / Nixpkgs.
