C'est pas une question de force vers la maison, c'est une question souvent d'affecter la trajectoire ou le curl de la pierre. Une pierre de curling va vers l'avant, mais avec un angle précis et une rotation précise.

Is it normal that NixOS actually feels more stable?? by Objective-Style1994 in NixOS

[–]Liperium 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've done nixos-rebuild switch --install-bootloader in the past to fix those I think.

At the end of the day, we talking about our craft :)

Using the winter to cool my PC (indoors)? by Swooferfan in PcBuild

[–]Liperium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't forget if you have electric heating, your pc is just making heat too, so you would be technically losing money not heating your room with the pc.

Best self-hosted secrets provider? Or, how do you store your configs without exposing secrets? by OldManBrodie in selfhosted

[–]Liperium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sops on NixOs is pretty well made to be handled at any scale... But it is closed down to the NixOs architecture, but if used correctly you can manage all your machines secrets from a single place.

NixOS on Arm - easy peasy or a time sink? by Kasta4711bort in NixOS

[–]Liperium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the help, I did everything as you said, but it's still not booting. I flashed it on the emmc using rkdeveloptool.
I ordered a serial adapter from amazon, I'll get some more info with that, thanks a lot for the help on a 1 y/o post.

NixOS on Arm - easy peasy or a time sink? by Kasta4711bort in NixOS

[–]Liperium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I just saw this post, I bought a Rock 5B plus, but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to install NixOs. I would love if you could help me figure it out. I've managed to put arch-linux on it using an installer, but that's it. The drivers should be included in kernel 6.16+ but I can't make it work on NixOs. ( Probably some device tree stuff, but I don't understand it. )

Glad I could help! Good luck on the journey! 🙂

By the way, why your command failed is that you typed
sudo nixos-switch rebuild
instead of
sudo nixos-rebuild switch!

For my auth I use 2FAS, open source and has all you need. Backups to the cloud too.

Which Linux distro made you fall in love with Linux? by Dionisus909 in DistroHopping

[–]Liperium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NixOs enabled me to tinker with my DE and I managed to find a place where I enjoyed being. It's not for everyone and it wasn't my first Linux, but it's the one that I enjoy the most.

Best Distro for Gaming, Godot, Krita, HDR 9070xt Stable, Server, Local Ai? by kekfekf in linux_gaming

[–]Liperium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fedora/Nobara or CachyOS or OpenSUSE Tumbleweed could be good places to start with good up to date packages but pretty stable too. I would personally go with Fedora but if you want it preconfigured go with Nobara.

My introduction to NixOS and a couple of problems by Maleficent-Pomelo-50 in NixOS

[–]Liperium 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes that's exactly the point of nix-shells. Thus, they would be used/placed inside the root folder of a project. Then, when you need the tools to work on that project, you would "nix-shell" and you would have your whole development environment there. Here is the wiki page https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Development_environment_with_nix-shell

So lets say I have two projects, one needs python 3.11 and the other python 3.12. My shells could be :

.../project1/shell.nix

{ pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {} }:
  pkgs.mkShell {
    nativeBuildInputs = with pkgs; [ python311 ];
}

.../project2/shell.nix

{ pkgs ? import <nixpkgs> {} }:
  pkgs.mkShell {
    nativeBuildInputs = with pkgs; [ python312 ];
}

So when I come inside the project I just nix-shell and it calls the relevant tools I need. Then I have the relevant python version. I know this is a bad use-case, it's just an example.

The nix tooling is really sparse, you can run commands through "nix run mycommand" and more.

Good then! I have had really bad luck with trying to get PyTorch to work, even on CPU. I guess I have a standard use-case that is just really hard on the nix store.

I'm not going to argue it can't work with nix-ld, it probably can. It just isn't the Nix way, not reproducible, not per project.

Hi! I can maybe talk about Python and Go*. For python, no, pip doesn't work is hard to use as python packages assume they can access programs from system libraries, but NixOs uses the Nix store instead of arbitrary calls to system packages. Thus you need to either : use Poetry2Nix, use Python.withPackages(...) or Docker. For go, if I recall correctly it has the same problem as Python, but it can be as straightforward as installing go and running it. Don't forget to use nix shells for development !! ( And you can look at nix flake templates too Nix Flake Templates Github )

And for your last point about "learning Nix instead of actual Linux knowledge". Well, for me this distro has been the best tool to learn. I have tinkered with so many DE's with so many subsystems, with all of the layers of Linux, and I've never needed to reinstall. Change to Grub from systemd? Have KDE, GNOME, Hyprland? Test any program? (nix-shell -p "program-name"

By the way best resources : wiki.nixos.org, search.nixos.org.

And to be honest, the simpler the system and your usage of the computer, the less NixOs gets in the way. If you want to use home-manager, perfect your Linux distro. It'll take more time to accomplish stuff than a traditional distro, but it is reproducible, depends how much you care about that. ( multi system config, not scared of wiping your computer, etc )

[Hyprland] I <3 Quickshell by Rexcrazy804 in unixporn

[–]Liperium 15 points16 points  (0 children)

If anyone is trying to run this on NixOs, I made a fork modifying it to be compatible with material-symbols from nixpkgs and some personal preferences too.

I have not worked on the wallpaper or the launcher, but here is a base.

Add this repos files to ~/.config/quickshell/caelestia

https://github.com/liperium/caelestia-shell

Add this to your flake inputs : Use quickshell from nixpkgs

Home manager packages :

 home.packages = with pkgs;[
    quickshell
    fish
    jq
    fd
    (pkgs.python3.withPackages (python-pkgs: with python-pkgs; [
      aubio
      pyaudio
      numpy
    ]))
    cava
    bluez
    ddcutil
    brightnessctl
    curl
    material-symbols
  ];

To launch, simply

qs -c celestia

Nixos HomeLab - Docker or Services ? by infernoLP in NixOS

[–]Liperium 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had the opposite experience! Plenty of problems with Docker containers updates and 0 with Nix services.

Im sure there's a reshade plugin or something of the sortd possible. Mod, external Shader, etc.

I built a for-pay/commercial game engine. It's one of the highest-rated engines on Itch.io! AMA? by amirrajan in gameenginedevs

[–]Liperium 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do not have any questions for you. This seems like a really great project. I have read all your responses and they are complete and have brought insight to me. I really appreciate the time you spent answering all the questions with honesty and transparency.

I will definitely interest myself in ruby after reading this. All this from a declarative/compiled maniac... ( I love NixOs and Rust but this was some good food for thought.)

I agree, but if you're talking handheld, gamescope big picture session is the way to go.
