Ouh, that sucks to hear :( I think I'll still at least give it a try (it has been on my bucket list to set up for a while, not specifically for music purposes, just in general).

THanks, that's the second recommendation for Jamulus - I assume it's really that noticeable of a difference? In terms of latency and quality?

Yeah but tbf its completely wild that they didn't make sure to get the traffic ministry. Was foreign affairs really that much more important to the Greens?

Holy strawman

Setting up an email server is really straightforward with simple-nixos-mailserver, highly recommend. No idea how likely you are to be classified as spam though from a new domain

He's Veppers.

Also there's a book by Stephen Baxter set in his Xeelee universe which takes this premise for the cult mentality of a terrorist cell

Sorry this doesn't really add anything, just thought it kinda funny

Im Prinzio erlaubt Nix dir, dein komplettes System (von Networking über User und Pakete, bis zu all deinen dotfiles) in einer einzigen, deklarativen config festzuhalten.

Dein System kann dann mit einem command vollständig von 0 nach betriebsbereit neu gebaut werden.

Kann sehr empfehlen mal aif YouTube danach zu suchen, das Thema ist bisschen zu umfangreich für ein Kommentar 😅

I thought about adding a link, but am a bit hesitant to de-anonymize myself on here 😅

But it's basically this:

• Proxmox is not Nix configured. There's a project for that, but IMO t'll take a couple of years to be ready for production.
• I've created a custom nix module that essentially just sets my default values for stuff like bios type, boot order,... And allows to set CPU cores, RAM, IP,...
• all this does though is just setting the corresponding values from the nixos-generators proxmox output
• additionally, all the usual stuff is handled (user, known ssh keys, base config of the system)
• for each VM, I only have a single file containing the VM settings (ID, RAM, cpu, ip,...) and the service config for whatever the VM is for
• then lastly I have a custom script/shell that essentially just allows to do "nixvm-new

  <flake output name>

  " which generates the image, moves it to the nas, and calls on proxmox to import the image, plus some cleanup

TBH this sounds way more complicated than it is / feels to use 😄

Thank you for the clarifications! I positively suck at doing my hair, but will definitely give this a try :)

One more question though, wouldn't the blue loop slip out of the pink loop over time, from the weight of the blue "end"?

Collapse

I think the steps I don't understand / aren't very clear from the pictures are

• I assume you clip the blue "end" to the top of your head temporarily at step 4?
• what goes through the pink loop at the end? Just the aforentioned "end"? Or just the blue loop? If the first, what's the loop even for? If the second, what happens with the blue end?
• how many hair ties are you left with in your hair at the end? 0? 1? 2?

Or have a Video link?

(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
