I love NixOS! Been using it on all my devices since January and probably never going back :)
It all sinply just works™! Don’t worry about configuration :) As long as you’re not using relatively obscure software, you’ll be more than fine reading the docs/manual :)
If you still want to use obsure stuff though, the community on matrix is very active and helpful! Plus most (interesting) projects have at least one or two very dedicated Nix fanatics (/maintainers) willing to help others :D
This is what I mean when I say that I’m in a pickle.
Where am I to do unholy things now behind my partner’s back?
I’m more of a bottom, if you know what I mean.
That wasn’t even a teaser. It was basically a slideshow :(
I’m doing Game Dev with Rust (Godot + gdext in my case). Sadly it’s just hobby projects, but would love to actually use rust (at all) at work.
I choose Rust over other languages (C#, Python, GDScript, C++, etc), because I enjoy writing in Rust.
I love that it’s so concise and easy to read, while providing super useful errors at compile time, and great auto-completion thanks to the rust-analyzer. Despite it being a much more complicated languages than almost even C++, it provides so much useful information when writing/compiling, that running can be mostly taken for granted (but shouldn’t of course).
I don’t need to worry about types or pointers, but rather about writing what I want in Rust, which is simply too much fun.

I’m no mathematician, but maybe plurals (?) “Dihedrals”, " cyclics", etxc. sound fine to me, but I’m no expert.
Try Typst! It’s quite awesome! I wrote my thesis with it :)
This should be re-titled to: “Taylor Swift flying into the World Trade Center, because the elevator ride to the top is a bit slower”.
As a use-rust-for-even-the-most-basic-task elitist, I laugh.
MRW the stall in the public bathroom doesn’t have a latch/lock.
Here I am waiting for nigahiga to ever post again.
So sad! I hope he’s doing well. Hopefully it is all just a temporary private matter and he might come back in the future.
UK layout is the GOAT. It isn’t that much different from US layout at first, but there are so many more special characters readily available. Particularly useful for multiple languages like Spanish, German, Swedish, etc.
Where is “nu” though?
gdext is only slowly being deloped since it only has 2 true core devs, despite having many contributors. That being said it’s already functional. It just doesn’t have all the features implemented yet. If you’re interested in using the project, and have rust knowledge consider contributing or supporting the project!
All the needed AMD stuff is pretty well documented in the manual. I’m gaming on NixOS with even my “relatively old” AMD GPU.
The only time I heard about needing that was when using plain “nix” (not NixOS), as in using Nix under any other OS, to run graphical applications. I haven’t touched nixgl at all, and don’t see the need for it.
Literally my terminals (kitty is my main) + foot. Both working easily either under main NixOS config or Home-Manager. What’s supposed to not be working there?
Literally don’t know what your problems are/where they lie. I’m a Linux noob (don’t even have the patience for Arch Wiki + install), coming from Pop_OS to NixOS and I’m happy it’s all so easy. I’ve installed it on my main PC and two separate laptops and so happy to just share (basically) the same config on all of them.
