Meow i am officially using #nixos as my proper daily driver! I reinstalled my partition, wiping the whole drive! I even got disk encryption set up too!


update on #Onixy:

I gotta rewrite the install script, it's really bad and I'm not happy with it. I just haven't spent any time the last couple days to look at it (honestly it's not a priority AT ALL). I'll probably get to it tomorrow or sometime this week.

#nixos #flakecheck has often #oom -ed my #thinkpad devices and using my #supermicro server shows that it uses up to 22 Gb #RAM (of 42 in use at the time) if given free reign, which explains just how demanding flake check is, and even then does not finish #build fast but takes 10 mins. Often one has to set the #maxjobs to 1 and #cores to 2 and set up #swap and #zram to prevent oom on smaller machines like old thinkpads. #flakes


Just switched from #Arch with chezmoi to #NixOS using Home Manager. The learning curve was heavy, especially after the first boot without any tools. But man, nix is awesome. It's a good feeling to know that my build is reproducible and I can push it on another laptop with ease.

One last server build to support #atomdrift before I run out of money (256GB of DDR5 does not come cheap!). With any luck, this will provide enough #PostgreSQL muscle to keep the lights on for the next year:

AMD Ryzen 9950X3D2 / 256GB RAM / Intel Optane 900P / 2x7.68TB Kioxia CD8

As for the OS - perhaps #NixOS?

Gosh I love android and Linux container apps for it, especially nix-on-droid. It's so nice to have a subset of my home-manager config available on mobile devices.

I think the main thing that would make using android for general computing difficult is just how crappy mobile Firefox is and how it just lacks so many of the shortcuts and extensions of full fat Firefox.

Why does run0 make all my commands colors super saturated? Not complaining, but I wouldn't mind making that the normal saturation...

#Linux #Run0 #Nix #NixOS



Anyone use or keep a local copy of all the packages installed on their #nixos to make a reinstall or ( duplicate ) workable without internet? (I use flakes and persistence)


does anyone use the Nix User Repository for anything other than firefox extensions?

#nixos


Why use #NixOS? Less time spent fixing your system, more time researching random shit and getting Godot to work.

#NixOS


my surface pro ran Fedora for a while but now I'm using it to experiment with #NixOS to varying levels of enjoyment. There's a lot of proprietary garbage in it, of course, so it's more of a pain to get anything other than Windows running on it, which is almost certainly by design


What’s your favorite Linux distro?

For me, it’s NixOS. I’ve been using it for the past 2 years.

#Linux #NixOS



However, I am using NixOS, and the only officially supported distro for Sourcehut is Alpine. I naively thought that I can just create a bunch of Podman images with Alpine as a base and host them as Quadlets, but after doing a git.sr.ht image, I am starting to realize, that this is not so easy of a task... And it's just one service!

#git #sourcehut #nixos #alpine #podman


While checking out some options, I remembered about Sourcehut, and I realized that email-based workflows are ticking almost every point in what I am looking for. If there's someone who hosts Sourcehut, and they configured email support, I can just send them patches. Likewise, people can send patches to me, and they don't even need to be registered on my instance.

#git #sourcehut #nixos #alpine #podman


I am trying to move to some less centralized git forge, and I am looking around for options. In my ideal world, if I host an instance of a forge, I can freely connect with all other instances without prior registration.

#git #sourcehut #nixos #alpine #podman

Ajout du support des routeurs MikroTik à mon projet #nix-homelab ️

Au programme :

• Monitoring des métriques MikroTik via MKTXP et Prometheus
• Dashboards Grafana pour visualiser l’état des routeurs
• Sauvegarde automatique des configurations

Exemple de configuration NixOS

mikrotik = {<br>  enable = true;<br>  backup = true;<br><br>  prometheus = {<br>    enable = true;<br>    openFirewall = true;<br>    verbose = true;<br>    remoteDhcpServerVlan = "mgmt";<br>    serviceDomain = "mikrotik-exporter.infra.${config.homelab.domain}";<br>    registerScope = [ "private" ];<br>    listenInterfaces = lib.mkForce [ "br-infra" ];<br>  };<br><br>  routers = [<br>    {<br>      name = "mkt254";<br>      host = "192.168.240.254";<br>    }<br>    {<br>      name = "mkt253";<br>      host = "192.168.240.253";<br>    }<br>  ];<br>};<br>

My used Lenovo ThinkPad X1 Carbon came and I’ve just installed basic NixOS installation on it to check everything is working. It is, so I’m very excited! The battery has seen better days as expected, but the rest is in much better condition than I expected.

I decided to be adventurous and did btrfs filesystem and full disk encryption.

I love it 😍

Next: proper NixOS config with all the bells and whistles.

After that: stickerrrsss 🤩

Which is fine as I actually WANT all my nixos closure downloads to be kept locally for resilience... so I can see a #nixos cache seed for my flake having to take shape on a machine in my lan .... very very interesting project #radicle. And I can see that finding the rad key/hash thingy I needed on a different URL seems not to be a solved problem.


Yes. Very nice. I run repoducible.org which is currently down as I am not at home & the machine is a laptop and I did not want to worry about the battery. What then happened is that a #nixos flake failed to build because it referenced that "off" URL. And I seek a way of referencing a radicle repo and/or specific git commit hash using this resilient fail-safe radicle distributed property but am failing to see a clean way in nixos other than hosting the urls I need locally.


Daily-driving #NixOS for years really pushed my dislike for the concept of dynamically linked libraries...

Today is the last Wednesday in August, time for another nix / lix / #nixos meetup in Cologne, starting 19:15 at @c4! 🫶🏼

Project i'm currently working on to poke fun at another thing (should be obvious) It'll be done by the end of the day. that's how easy it is when you're not vibe coding this slop.

SERIOUSLY DO NOT USE THIS! it's a joke right now, once it's done and in an iso then have at it but this is NOT something i'm taking seriously. or maybe i will. who knows.

NOTE IT"S NOT DONE YET I HAVEN"T MADE AN ISO YET.

I sometimes have this moment of doubt that "this would be so much easier on Windows", especially when it comes to gaming and hardware...

... but then I remember how little they care about my privacy, so I just open that editor and write more configurations in pain.

#nixos has me going patch-crazy for every little rough edge on my desktop. It's so easy to just patch in whatever behavior I want ❤️


what's your go-to tutorial/website for learning how to use sop-nix? i have a shaky grasp on it, but i want to use it more.

Also the #NixOS configuration to make this work is horrible too...


Lol #LLM|s cant handle it when the #NixOS package is named without a dash but the binary is named with one.

E.g. "lmstudio" and "lm-studio". But besides that it generates wrapper overwrites to add e.g. uv and python into its path...



Ich teste das System noch, aber bisher kann ich keine Unterschiede feststellen.

Für mich ist das wirklich ein riesiger Schritt, weil ich so etwas zum ersten Mal gemacht habe. #nixos #flakes sind Fabelhaft.

Dokumentiert unter codeberg.org/adingbatponder/re…

Aber pass auf.... #KI war im Spiel , nichts vertrauen. Es ist nur ein Beispiel was für mich funktioniert hat.

#backup #restore

5/5 Ende


Ich habe zum ersten Mal eine komplette Neuinstallation meines #nixos Laptops durchgeführt.

Von Anfang an, also seit etwa zwei Jahren, verwende ich ein sogenanntes Persistenz-Konzept #persistence. Dabei werden alle Dateien, die nicht direkt zum Betriebssystem gehören und den aktuellen Zustand des Systems darstellen, separat unter /persist gespeichert. #homelab

Простая декларативная установка NixOs, часть 1 — Настройка конфигурации

Эта статья является прямым продолжением этой статьи , посвящённой декларативной разметке диска через disko. Что мы будем делать сегодня? Мы с вами составим минимально-рабочий конфиг для нашей системы. Под "минимально-рабочим" я имею в виду: без графического окружения(XFCE, GNOME и прочее), углублённых настроек(установка zsh, например). Мы настроим: загрузчик, сеть, пользователя, звук, локализацию, подключим наш файл disko-config.nix .
