Another week, another few examples of "oh nixos is lovely" and no major "ARGH"s. My polybar config was a bit messed up but that was my fault, so all in all #nixos is proving itself to be a very competent replacement for Debian on my desktop.

The one wrinkle which does irritate me a little right now is that I have to unplug/replug my yubikey after logging in, or else the dev nodes aren't the right permissions - bit odd that.

Oh my. I tried NixOS very briefly and one annoyance I had was running precompiled binaries, which required annoying hacks to run.

You can guess my attitude toward precompiled binaries running anywhere but in a container or VM can't you ? :D
