@Rhababerbarbar in #NixOS it is pretty simple to build a custom kernel
https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/#sec-kernel-config
https://nixos.org/manual/nixpkgs/stable/#sec-linux-kernel
https://wiki.nixos.org/wiki/Linux_kernel
e.g. i created a kernel with #bcachefs
Gonna predict that Linux Is Best will leave #NixOS faster than misskey.de

Dear NixOS, Stop renaming shit. #NixOS #Nix #Linux

Not really surprising though I guess, its the corporate way of doing things.
You do something shady, get called out, apologize in an hand wavy, noncommittal kind of way, promise to do better, and then instead of doing anything wait until it blows over and quietly bring the thing back.
It's really kind of a classic.
I guess its totally cool that #devenv 1.5 was pushed into #nixpkgs, bringing back both telemetry and source code upload for AI training, and neither @domenkozar's blog post nor the release announcement mentions anything about that, right?
hmm...transmission...403 forbidden
127.0.0.1:9091
services.transmission = {
enable = true;
package = pkgs.transmission_4;
openFirewall = true;
openPeerPorts = true;
openRPCPort = true;
settings = {
rpc-bind-address = "0.0.0.0";
};
};
hmmm....
Dear Lazy web...
With the old #NixOS aarch64 build host dead and my request for access to the new one unsuccessful, I'm pondering the best path to having an aarch64 build machine again. I see three paths, in no particular order:
* Pay for an #aarch64 VPS and set it up as a build machine
* Re-build one of my Pi3's as a build machine
* Use cross compilation
None of them are ideal and there may be better ways.
Interested in your thoughts or other ideas.
Any #NixOS users building a custom #kernel?
The #Linux kernel is crazy huge, I would like to start tweaking my system by using a custom kernel
- longterm 6.12 as base (less hassle, more stable)
- intel only (no amd, nvidia, wifi card drivers etc)
- modern-ish hardware only (no obscure old keyboard drivers etc)
- O3 optimizations (I think they generally make sense on an i7-11th gen)
Do you got good resources to start with this?
I am specifically asking about the NixOS part.
running a container from a vm
#virtualization #alpinelinux
and its hostname is not #nixos but auto generated
@arda @f @ssg I've been thinking of what are the best and easiest ways of getting people into a #tech #cooperative. That is, self host as a local community.
#Fediversity shows one such way, via #NixOS. In this #NixFlake we see an automated setup for a set of services, like #Mastodon, #Peertube and #Pixelfed.
You basically fork this, modify its variables and run it on your server and you should have your own platforms up and running.

Forgejo: Beyond coding. We Forge.Documentation in operating systems is cool. It is possible to extend and rewrite utilities as time goes on, as #freebsd proves. You can still have cool utilities, like #containers and #zfs and #hypervisors, good docs for them and a consistent base system.
I dunno where I am going with this, other than wishing I didn't have to peruse the Arch wiki and the Gentoo wiki for everything when I get stuck, and instead could just "man xyz" and get good answers, speaking as #nixos user.

For many, overlays, and fixed-point functions as underlying concept, are hard to gasp in #Nix.
I found the documentation to be actually quite good in this case, checkout the function docs of fix and extends (and read in this order). Both have great examples/steps that guide you through, which was really helpful to me.
fix f computes the fixed point of the given function…
noogle.dev@marcus@hachyderm.io @Pol@mathstodon.xyz Wonderful. Now I just need to wait for that to make it into the repos and I will be able to install NixOS on another PC.
#NixOS #Nix #Linux #iVPN
I think the one thing I am not happy concerning NixOS is the lack of a GUI VPN (not Flatpak).
I, know how to use the terminal, but I can repeat how to use it until I am blue in the face, and pass out, but that knowledge and wisdom will wash over the other person who needs it. They'll hear me, but forget the moment I walk out of the room. If it is not graphical, they're not learning it.
