So crate2nix has a new maintainer after being dead for roughly two years, but it's all Co-Authored-By Claude Code now.

Organising my :nixos: #nix code and splitting out sharable things into a separate repo. Here for example is my package for #forgejoAneksajo (:forgejo: #forgejo :gitannex:
nix-converter just hit 1.0.0 #nix - I frequently use this with https://github.com/reMarkable/helmfile-nix/ when I want to convert some kubernetes object into a nix chart.
Reinstated Obelix Saigon yesterday. Whereas Asterix is the 'skinny immutable' Nixbook config, with flatpaks layered on top, Obelix is the 'fat' one, with a fully featured configuration.nix. No flakes, no flatpaks, just plain nix pkgs. Works brilliantly. The laptop will go encrypted VoidLinux. Can't go wrong with that either.

Thoughts on keeping parts (assets *and* #nix code) of your public :nixos: #NixOS config private?

I think what irks me the most about the understaffed darwin (= macOS) maintainers situation in #nixpkgs is not only that it forces pure Linux users to look out for darwin quirks and thus invest a significant amount of time in darwin maintenance, but also that a significant amount of the business value of DetSys, Flox and similar
With Aurorix up and running (OCI container with KDE) it's time to start Asterix up also. That's my 'immutable', auto-updating Nix. Although less 'confined' than Aurorix it should be basically the same for the enduser. Looking forward to the comparison.

I think it's time to rip out darwin support from my #nix flake. I no longer use macos and don't see myself going back in that direction. I still have an iPhone (for now) and a bunch of appletvs, but I notice I'm drifting away from the Apple eco-system.
Okay weird. simple-scan (the simple #Linux scanning app) kept crashing with 'buffer overflow detected'. I tried other versions as far back as from #NixOS 23.11 (nix run github:nixos/nixpkgs/nixos-23.11#simple-scan), which successfully launched and still detected the scanner. Surprisingly, after a su…

I noticed that the aarch64 git annex standalone build test suite (emulated on NixOS under x86_64) is *far* slower than the the nixpkgs-provided one:
> nix run nixpkgs#legacyPackages.aarch64-linux.git-annex test
# ... takes ~8min
> nix run gitlab:nobodyinperson/yannix#packages.aarch64-linux.git-annex-standalone test
# ... takes ~35min
