(Preface: almost all of this is handled in a single Nix config, and no docker in use at all)

At home, in a two-hosts Proxmox cluster:

• blocky for adblocking
• a full *arr stack with torrents and nzbs for uuuuuuhhh Linux ISOs
• Jellyfin so friends and family can watch, I mean use the Linux ISOs
• Paperless (HIGHLY recommend)
• Wastebin (Pastebin alternative)
• Sterling-PDF (also really recommend, allowed me to get rid of Acrobat Reader for filling out and signing PDFs, plus a bunch more)
• Homeassistant
• Linux and Windows clients available for whenever you might need them (not often, but can come in handy)
• Borg client, backing up parts of my NAS to a cloud storage box
• OPNSense backup for the hardware firewall
• Forgejo

On a bare metal machine at a reputable cloud provider:

• my personal Email, Calendar, Contacts (super easy with Nix)
• another blocky instance
• another borg client
• Rustdesk server (OSS Teamviewer)
• wireguard that's just used by my TV so crunchyroll thinks it's in (other country), Lmao

Wishlist:

• Vaultwarden
• Immich, once added to nixpkgs
• PeerTube
• Pixelfed

Hello fellow German.

Vielleicht hätte ich klarstellen sollen, dass ich von NixOS rede, wobei Nix Latein für Schnee ist :D

Acceptable

Nope. I don't think I'll ever switch back (or to anything else). Nix is awesome.

Am more confused now

No science, no meme, only the flimsiest strawman I've ever seen and pure bigotry.

Edit: from a brand new account. How courageous, lmfao

Define "inside me"

Their marketing department does a phenomenal job of blurring the line between show and reality. I have no trouble believing that this coin is "real".

With how depressingly close especially the latest season has been to reality, I am utterly convinced that (without spoiling anything) they will intentionally end this season at a point that allows them to wait and see what chaos the US elections will bring with them, and to then incorporate that into the final season.

Kinda off topic I guess but w/e.

AKA move my entire Arch setup to Nix during exams

I was fully on board until, like, a year ago. But the more I used it, the more obviously it came undone.

I initially felt like it could really help with programming. And it looked like it, too - when you fed it toy problems where you don't really care about how the solution looks, as long as it's somewhat OK. But once you start giving it constraints that stem from a real project, it just stops being useful. It ignores constraints (use this library, do not make additional queries, ...), and when you point out its mistake and ask it to to better it goes "oh, sorry! Here, let me do the same thing again, with the same error!".

If you're working in a less common language, it even dreams up non-existing syntax.

Even the one thing it should be good at - plain old language - it sucks ass at. It's become so easy to spot LLM garbage, just due to its style.

Worse, asking it to proofread a text for spelling and grammar mistakes, but to explicitly do not change the wording or style, there's about a 50/50 chance it will either

• change your wording or style, or
• point out errors that are not even in the original text in the first place!

I could honestly go on and on, but what it boils down to is: it is able to string together words that make it sound like it knows what it is doing, but it is just that, a facade. And it looks like for more and more people, the spell is finally breaking.

Yeah. I've had zero problems hosting my mail on a bare metalachine in a datacenter. They arrive just like they should, plus it's just so freeing to host it yourself.

(Actually, the only time I've been able to fully let go and scream while crying as an adult was when just so happening to be next to a torrendous river. I could not possibly scream loud enough to be heard by anyone. It is so freeing to just scream everything off your soul. 10/10 would recommend. Sorry for kinda off-topic.)
