with that being the case, correct me if I’m wrong, but your pitch is that users should trust your manually compiled and maintained commands to install things because you’re guaranteeing that the binaries being installed by your commands are from official sources, and that is better (in at least some cases) than cached binaries from something like nixpkgs, where the trust we are asked to give is that the cache is built correctly from source.
right, that’s what nix does if you build from source
Genuine question: Why would I use this as opposed to Nix? Between nixpkgs and the NUR, there are an insane amount of packages available, and you can build everything from source if you wish.

Compared with existing interface technologies, GPMI has seven core advantages: bidirectional multi-stream, bidirectional control, high-power power supply, ecological compatibility, ultra-fast transmission, fast wake-up and full-chain security, leading the comprehensive upgrade of audio and video technology.
“full-chain security”? Sounds like another proprietary tool for DRM. Hard pass. Fuck HDMI, too.
Oh hey it’s by that guy who gave my university $30m so the university could spend another $100m to make a building with his name on it while we had a ton of infrastructure in disrepair. nice.
Sorry, he wrote all these? Or did he just own lots of stock in a company that hired engineers who made these things?
