Nix has issues, personally I'm using an immutable distro. Right now I can go upstairs and yank the power and it'll boot right back up like nothing ever happened.
I want something rock solid, and neither Ansible or NixOS provide that. Here's the article that I took inspiration from: https://words.filippo.io/frood/
Nice, you caught them in a lie, they totally care and will stop being dickheads now.
Yeah because he'll totally spend time in prison if they're released.
They're going to do that anyways..
Wait, people believe we're just magically the only living beings in the universe?
ok
you could at least call him a cunt and drop the reddit-tier verbage.
Radicalize for what?, more protesting?
How are those protests going?, is ICE still a thing?
"I went outside and picked up rocks to protest Trump!"
"At least I'm doing something, what are YOU doing?"
and what did that do?
support open data initiatives like OpenStreetMaps
Yes!, continue supporting OpenStreetMaps so Apple, Mapbox, Microsoft, Uber and Lyft can continue turning your free work into millions of dollars.
I mean my root filesystem is immutable, it runs completely in RAM (squashfs). After trying NixOS and seeing that article I linked about an immutable Alpine NAS I decided to try it for myself. I found it easier to just customize the Arch ISO builder and generate/update images as needed versus following the article exactly, I'm also not familiar with Alpine itself.
Packages aren't pinned in my Arch image and it's not 100% deterministic, but that's fine it's a risk I'm willing to take. So far it's been absolutely rock solid, lean and easy to manage.
Also, I found NixOS annoying because:
the language
the config application (I forget the command) was doing god knows what behind the scenes. My needs aren't that complicated, I'm comfortable with just manually setting things up and locking that in by generating an Arch image. It's way easier.
