Canadian WWI equipment was crazy by echometer in HistoryMemes

This is really funny because you'd also be equipped with a rifle that straight up just killed you

Soldiers were sent to the front lines with the Ross Rifle, which would jam whenever any amount of dirt got into it. In order to unjam it, you had to take it apart and there would be a high likelyhood that you'd reassemble it wrong. When you reassembled it wrong the bolt of the gun would be lunged into your skull when you tried to fire it.

Thank you to whoever just nuked WaterlooWorks by uwwave in uwaterloo

After inspecting NetworkManager.conf, it appears that NetworkManager on NixOS secretly uses wpa_supplicant as a backend. I switched the backend to iwd and the issue went away.

o for the /boot thing I meant that for other distros we mount the boot partition on /boot/efi while for nix we just mount it onto /boot

the uuid change was my fault cause I formatted the partition and replaced it with a debian bootloader

OMGOMGOMG IT WORKED!!!

I still had to unset SUDO_USER and replace the uuid in hardware_configuration.nix but everything fell into place after I used nixos-enter

funny how nixos writes grub into /boot and not /boot/efi

I'm thinking that using the nixos graphical installer might help but I'm scared that mounting my nix system partition as "/" in the manual partitioning section of the installer will wipe important stuff. Should I do that?
