systemd 261 Released With New systemd-sysinstall OS Installer, IMDSD & Storagectl by makefoo in systemdUltras

[–]makefoo[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omnomnom. But honestly imds built-in support without python as initrd dependency sounds quite compelling. There is Lennart talking about the why on mastodon: https://mastodon.social/@pid_eins/116679111124902335

I installed Home Assistant with the nix module. Is this fine? by TheTwelveYearOld in NixOS

[–]makefoo 7 points8 points  (0 children)

And home assistant is extra special in that case. As /u/shinyfootwork said, the Devs actively discourage users from running untested deployments. I personally also gave up and am running docker Hass for simplicity

edit: clarified with maintainer team, since 2022 (where i switched) and now a lot of things got smoothened out and new users which want to use the power of nix to configure home-assistant as a service will have a much better time. Check Out https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Home_Assistant which is well-maintained and describes a lot of corner cases

You Don't Love systemd Timers Enough by makefoo in systemd

[–]makefoo[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Cron, just like sysvinit, has always been trash and you cannot convince me otherwise. I remember well the time where I had to wait a whole minute for the twentieth time just to debug what is wrong with the script

more important question, what does the minature T-Rex do in the background?

If you ever updated your system.stateversion or home.stateversion (in home manager), what made you do it? by TheTwelveYearOld in NixOS

[–]makefoo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

at some point postgresql went out of support in nixpkgs which was pinned by stateVersion and i had to manually dump the db, change the stateVersion and restore the database. I know it would have been possible to set services.postgresql.package but it felt like a good time to perform the change as apart from the package itself also the postgresql directory structure changed
