Next #Nix and #NixOS #Heidelberg meetup on Friday, October 17 at the Institute for Computer Science (Mathematikon). Save the date! :blobcatnomcookie: :nixos:

Yesterday I had to present some stuff to a pretty large group, around 40 people.
What better moment to install my KDE spin of the Nixbook project (codeberg.org/thesaigoneer/asterix-saigon) for a real life test?
I have only one issue with it.
It just keeps working 🤣

The yearly :nixos: #nix / #NixOS community survey is online:
https://survey.nixos.org/759934

I've been mainly running NixOS, with my spin on Cosmic, for the last week. Had the automated system update this morning. That has been the biggest event happening so far.
This combo, based by me on the Nixbook project, is absolutely rocksolid.
Look for it @ codeberg / thesaigoneer / cosmix-saigon. Kudos to all involved!
And yes, that includes yours truly 😜

"To start with #Nix was one of my worst IT ideas so far."
Read about the reasons why #NixOS did not work out for me on:
Good bye NixOS, Hello #Debian (Again)!

I think it is a nice idea to highlight why we like working with #Nix and #NixOS to remind us, why we all are doing this in the end.
For me it is still the best experience in #freesoftware I…

If you want to participate in the upcoming #NixOS steering committee election but haven't reached the required 25 commits mark in #nixpkgs yet, feel free to send some PRs to me for review. Also available for some 1:1 chats in Matrix or Discord to get any issues quickly sorted, so your PRs ca…

#limine looks interesting. A non-annoying way to get secure boot and a pretty boot menu in #nixos? Sign me up.

Dear #NixOS SC electorate, you may now choose between me, myself and I.

Oh my, could it be that #chezmoi ticks most boxes why I was starting with #NixOS in the first place? 🤔

Waydroid in #nixos is getting nftables support 🎉 https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/455257

Some realtalk and call for help (thread): for a bit over a year, I've been somewhat regularly organizing the domestic #NixOS and #RustLang meetups in #Mannheim and

I never use a software store; the cli rules for me. The Cosmic Store though adds community made applets for the desktop environment. A couple of days ago I easily added a theme to the repo. This community-contributing aspect is a bit overlooked, but it makes Cosmic stand out.

Does someone have a working integration of #Nextcloud and #KDE on #nixos ?
I managed to add it as an Online Account but I don't have an option for calendars. Only for contacts and storage…

stimmt meine beobachtung auf den #datenspuren, dass zeitgenössische #catgirls nicht mehr auf arch betriebsystemen laufen sondern auf #NixOS?
weil die Nix-identität am sichtbarsten nach außen getra…

The #NixOS moderation team resigns "effective immediately, in protest of the Steering Committee’s ongoing pattern of attempting to interfere with moderation team operation, membership and specific moderation decisions."

Initiator of the #NixOS documentation team is stepping down:

I like that you can run Linux in a VM on android now (including #nixos) but man is the terminal app crap. Been playing with the android 16 desktop stuff too, and its also quite half baked for now.

Just finished voting.
That took way more time than expected.

Well. That was pretty easy. Boot process secured and prettified with #limine #nixos

The #NixOS Steering Committee election is over, can't wait to see the results

According to #FreePG right now: #ArchLinux, #Debian, #Fedora, #NixOS and #Ubuntu. Now #Gentoo joins that list, except that instead of silently making intrusive patching on top of GnuPG, we provide it as a separate package (app-crypt/freepg), and mark appropriately:
$ gpg --version
gpg (GnuPG) 2.5.13-freepg

Tho... via Limine it doesn't seem to use UKI according to bootctl? How tf does it work then???
I imagine this is less safe than Lanzaboote then, since Lanzaboote makes measured UKIs, is it not possible to use UKI with Limine?
(terminal window is ssh to my NAS with lanzaboote, vscodium is my PC with Limine)

Just a bit over a week until (my first) #NixCon :blobcatspace:
(and my second time at a conference in Switzerland)

So on my way to setting up #NixCon2025 😴
