Window -> Mint -> Mint Debian -> Arch -> NixOS (not complete yet)

I am incredibly happy with NixOS, I love having my entire OS and software configuration in a GIT repo, commits and comments included.

  • Bitwarden: I could host it myself, but it's better if it is secretly elsewhere in case I need up...
  • Backblaze: backups from my server (to which everything else will soon backup to)
  • Spotify: it's convenient
  • GPhotos: until I'm done migrating to Immich locally
  • PIA: yarr, and also avoiding region stuff

Actually that is exactly what I'm looking to do for my upcoming home server - configure and define everything via NixOS so that I can almost instantly reprovision it should I have to (restore from backup on hardware issues, recover from borked software upgrades, etc).

Setting up solid backups is important to me, so I plan to bake the full setup into the configuration. That allows me to test everything in a VM first and then apply it all with a simple GIT fetch and rebuild once I commit to hardware.

It's aspirational so far, but the more I read the more sense it makes to me. My own desktop won't be far behind if all of that works...

Sorry for the maybe stupid question, but - once I get the required MESA upgrade, how can I verify and test this? Is it as simple as checking whether for example Cyberpunk 2077 now allows me to enable it out does it require compatible games/updates to them?

Sounds like great progress though!

Endless Sky was surprisingly addictive to me, it really scratched the exploration itch. Sadly I played through most content at some point, so now I'm waiting for there to be enough new stuff for me to play again. I really enjoyed it, including the stories and lore and universe!

Endlich werde ich mich auf den zweiten Durchlauf einlasen können. Allerdings wird diesmal nicht vorbestellt.
