I’m new to NixOS, just installed it a few days ago, so I can’t say much about it’s pros and cons, but the installer was easy and I installed and booted into the new system very quickly. I think it might have been udpated in the past year, because I am watching a tutorial video from a year ago and he installs it via command line from the live iso.
edit: it also gave me a default configuration.nix which I’ve just been adding to (to get nginx with letsencrypt running, plus extra packages I wanted installed)
Instagram already had an app named Threads. Can they not think of a new name?
soylent green is people!
Is it a big learning curve? Is this the emacs equivalent of OS configuration/installation?
edit: another question - Could I play around with it by installing in qemu and if I like that, take my configuration.nix from qemu and install it as my main OS?
It uses apk from Alpine. It has dinit instead of systemd. I think it has some similarities to runit, but I’m not sure. Instead of gnu coreutils, it uses utilities from freebsd.
I don’t know. I was just curious about microsoft surface and if linux could run on it and found that in a search.
wal-mart is profitable and they at least pay workers minimum wage. u/spaz can’t make a profit when unpaid mods do most of the work for them. Not a very good CEO
