    For me, the factors were:

    • the ability to split your system configuration into logical modules. Describe one logical thing in one file, no matter how many other factors are involved. Don’t want that thing anymore? Just don’t reference the module, and all changes will be reverted.
    • easily try out new configurations and roll back, regardless of underlying filesystem, without performance penalties.
    • the ability to put logic into your configuration (technically, there’s no difference between what’s typically referred to as configuration and a module in nix, though the latter usually has more “logic” and provides values with lower priority).
    • as a consequence, make modules transferable between systems. There’s e.g. a Lanzaboote module that enables Secure Boot in a really smart way on NixOS, and the configuration is in my opinion easier than on any other Linux system.
    • the reproducibility, from which the “easy reinstallation” follows




  • That’s another win for the oat flakes, they don’t drive your blood sugar too high, but will keep it up for very long (no carb crash), plus they contain a load of micronutrients. Even their protein percentage is quite high - higher than chickpeas for example.

    Long story short, I don’t understand why people here are mad that the US government will no longer subsidize unhealthy and overpriced garbage. I know this probably isn’t where it’s going to stop, but at least this particular instance makes sense I guess.

    I’m not against did stamps being able to buy sweets. The issue I have is with a lot of breakfast cereals is that they too are in fact sweets, but people see them as a proper meal. They’re not. Occasional sweets are fine. Regularly eating a full meal consisting only of sweets is not.
