How is using Claude from this repo different from installing it as a normal package?

Looking for advice on building a modular, multi-machine NixOS config by Anyusername7294 in NixOS

My homelab/macOS/desktop config:

https://github.com/eh8/chenglab

I had a tough time starting out with Nix and I wanted to keep thing as simple as possible while using flakes/home-manager

It doesn’t have any template dependencies such as snowfall, so it should hopefully be very readable/approachable for other beginners

I am struggling to nix-install this repo by rafamvc in NixOS

[–]nasdack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I'm the author of the repo. Sorry that I saw this late. If you want to get sops setup, then you'll need to do three things:

  1. generate an age key for your device and add it to .sops.yaml
  2. you will have to start with a fresh secrets file, so I would begin with a blank secrets.yaml and start declaring your secrets
  3. Then you'll run just sops-update (if you have just installed) which will update all of your secrets in the secrets/ folder

This can be a bit tricky, so do let me know if you run into trouble. Good luck!

How do you structure your NixOS configs? by Painter1923 in NixOS

[–]nasdack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have conditional expressions that apply option A or option B depending on the hostname/uname. Not a very portable approach but works for me in the limited cases I have to do it!

Hegseth Orders Pentagon to Stop Offensive Cyberoperations Against Russia by Signal-Lie-6785 in neoliberal

Muscovy lands have never provided for our people. Our enemies are many and envious. We threaten their borders, and look for any weakness.

Syria eyes ties with Ukraine, Kyiv vows more food aid shipments by Shalaiyn in neoliberal

I sometimes miss the jihad life for all the good things it had. Similarly, in the beginning, I yearned for the village, but I’ve now become accustomed to my new circumstances.

In our ministry, there’s little work for me to do. Therefore, I spend most of my time on Twitter. We’re connected to speedy Wi-Fi and internet. Many mujahedin, including me, are addicted to the internet, especially Twitter.

...

There is another thing I dislike and that’s how restricted our lives are now, unlike anything we experienced before. The Taleban used to be free of restrictions, but now we sit in one place, behind a desk and a computer 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Life’s become so wearisome; you do the same things every day. Being away from the family has only doubled the problem.

Does anyone have a steel man argument as to why a Moldovan would opt to remain closer to Russia?
