After learning about nix, I’m surprised steamos isn’t built on it

If I tell you I’m not he/him, but she/her

What about adopting they/them?

I’m glad I have finally seen someone else who appreciates windows 8 (or at least is willing to admit it). People just lose their shit when there are any changes to the start menu, but the best start menu is to not have one at all.

Windows 8 has way better hotkeys (limit seaeching to files, programs, or applications) compared to the unified search in newer versions.

Niagara was an easy 5 stars and lifetime purchase, but I now have a seething hatred for apps that stick random words as a prefix; for example, “myCigna” or “Fly Delta” because it ruins alphabetical sorting. I rate them 1 star for their ridiculous naming practices, but I feel like I need to do something more drastic to communicate my anger.

You might like ERPNext, Akaunting, or odoo as mentioned by another user

Depends on your criteria of immutable, but as far as I know you could use both on NixOS.

Would you not consider genocide during a zombie apocalypse?

Have you considered something like jupyterhub?

I went down this path, but mini itx nucs with a GPU slot seemed to be better as long as you’re not using the egpu on multiple devices; if you are, then it might be worth considering just making a PC a host and running sunshine/moonlight. While I haven’t tried connecting to my host on the steamdeck, I have on my laptop and felt like it could be used for gaming

I haven’t looked into specific apps, but I have been wanting to try various trained models and figured just self hosting jupyterhub and getting models from hugging face would be a quick and flexible way to do it

I have it fully operational on my actual server machine running Ubuntu,

Was this difficult? Sorry to hijack, but I hadn’t really considered doing this but now I’m intrigued lol

I have a similar use case on my laptop and love NixOS with hyprland

Mainly just less to install when I inevitably wipe my PC again

It sounds like you may like NixOS if you haven’t tried it

In short: Manjaro sucks. No one should ever use it.

I’ve seen their certificates fail to renew multiple times. I feel like I don’t know anything, but I could at least certbot.

It depends on a lot of factors, but generally price and benefits. Some old cancer policies had no caps, which tended to lose insurers lots of money because health care costs have risen exponentially. Generally though, you’ll be paying a premium because the insurer acquired the risk. If you could absorb the loss without it, then in general it’s likely better to not purchase it.

I agree, when I was on other distributions I would gradually customize things until something broken; then it was easier to start from scratch than to fix my mistakes. With NixOS it still gives me the ability to tinker with things, but makes it much easier than starting from scratch when I inevitably mess it up.

I have proxmox running on a nuc and do a GPU passthrough to a windows VM. I haven’t encountered any anti cheat issues yet, but I honestly don’t game near as much as I used to.

Have you used buzzkill? It’s definitely one of my best all purchases.

Haha when I saw the cert issues it eroded any confidence I had; I wouldn’t say I know a lot, but I think I can keep a certbot up (unless it was running on Manjaro)

I started using nixos this week and love it; it’s like everything I love about containers made into an OS.
