| Hello, [Spritely Institute](https://spritely.institute/)! | ||

| Yum, yum, gimme some! Can't wait for mind-boggling stuff like | ||
| this [VRChat hack](https://blog.pimaker.at/texts/rvc1/) powered by ocaps and open source! | ||

| I was just talking with [@simonw](https://twitter.com/simonw) | ||
| about [portable posts using ERTP](https://twitter.com/dckc/status/1479108723494699021). | ||
| More on that later... | ||
|
|
||
| Nice [site](https://spritely.institute/) btw... shiny! | ||

| Or maybe Scheme programs that are also Hardened JavaScript programs, | ||

|
|
||
| Let's give it a spin as-is before stretching it... | ||

| Ah yes... [guix for ocaps at the systemd level](https://github.com/dckc/madmode-blog/issues/144) | ||
| is on my wish-list too. I have `guix` on my Ubuntu workstation, don't I? Let's see... | ||
| `guix install haunt`... | ||
| <strong title="haunt 0.2.5 /gnu/store/5pk6cwrh11bgchm68phj556srvcvdlvb-profile.drv">bingo!</strong> | ||
| ## Catching up with Guix after 55 days | ||
| meanwhile... | ||
| ``` | ||
| guix install: warning: Your Guix installation is 55 days old. | ||
| guix install: warning: Consider running 'guix pull' followed by | ||
| 'guix package -u' to get up-to-date packages and security updates. | ||
| ``` | ||
| so... | ||
| ``` | ||
| 15:38 jambox$ guix pull | ||
| Updating channel 'guix' from Git repository at 'https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/guix.git'... | ||
| Authenticating channel 'guix', commits 9edb3f6 to 2dfbd03 (5,405 new commits)... | ||
| ... | ||
| ``` | ||
| Ugh... taking a while... I wonder what it's doing, so | ||
| I hop over to [#guix](https://matrix.to/#/#guix:libera.chat) | ||
| and learn that the 5K commits include a big merge recently. | ||
| I'm just about to give up on it when it comes back to life... | ||
| ``` | ||
| 185.4 MB will be downloaded | ||

| Computing Guix derivation for 'x86_64-linux'... | ||
|
|
||
| News for channel 'guix' | ||
| Icedove 91: profile folder moved to `~/.thunderbird' | ||
| `gdm-service-type' now supports Wayland | ||

|
|
||
| 16:15 jambox$ guix install haunt | ||
| The following derivation will be built: | ||

| ``` | ||
| Thansk for the "News..." bit. The editorial discretion shows user-centered design. | ||
| `guix search` is another breath of fresh air in contrast to the way `apt` and `nix` | ||
| seem to grudgingly provide a search feature. Likewise: | ||
| ``` | ||
| hint: Consider setting the necessary environment variables by running: | ||
|
|
||
| GUIX_PROFILE="/home/connolly/.guix-profile" | ||
| . "$GUIX_PROFILE/etc/profile | ||
| ``` | ||
| `guix install emacs` gives 27.2 (2021) where Ubuntu gives 26.3 (2019). | ||
| And `guix install gnucash` has the new sqlite3 and postgres support. | ||
| Yes, this could be my tribe. I can't go all in yet because I use Brave | ||
| and I think there's a reason guix doesn't support it. | ||
| Now let's pop back... | ||
| ## Blogging with Haunt eval, cont. | ||
| Stubbed my toe on `ERROR: In procedure setlocale: Invalid argument`. | ||
| But `guix search locale` guided me nicely to `guix install glibc-locales`. | ||
| Then `asset processing failed with errno: "images" 2` because the homepage | ||
| has `(static-directory "images")` in the example config but neglects `mkdir images`. | ||
| (The tutorial doesn't have this bug.) Now we're rolling: | ||
| ``` | ||
| 09:48 connolly@jambox$ haunt serve | ||
| serving site on port 8080 | ||
| ``` | ||
| So close! If it were `serving site on http://localhost:8080` I could just follow the link. | ||
| > First post! | ||

| There's my tribe again :) | ||
| But I doubt netlify supports guix as well as they support python and node.js. | ||
| Here's hoping they do it well enough... |
