    @denommus sounds cool in that aspect. "Configure it to your heart's content."

      It's been quite a long time. But I got interested in !nixos, does anyone else use it?

      "you write a specification of the desired configuration of your system in #NixOS’s modular language, & NixOS takes care of making it happen"

      @denommus Never heard of #NixOS, sounds innovative, but also like "too good to be true". I wonder if they can live up to the expectations.

      @denommus I've been running it in a VM, mainly to try out #guix. I was running #nixos as the base OS and then mostly packages from #guix.

      @denommus Now I'm running #guixsd, with #nixpkgs on the side for some software not yet packaged for #guix. Each OS have their strengths.

      @clacke @denommus I tried #NixOS on one laptop about a year ago. I liked it, but everything must be compiled through #Nix.

      @clacke my problem with guix is that, unlike nix, it doesn't enforce purity.

      @denommus Oh, you are talking about the language.

      Build expressions use the store monad, so they're all pure. Not enforced, I suppose.

      @lnxw48 @denommus Should be fine to do a good old make install with a gcc? Or, fine untill you upgrade and garbage-collect glibc, I suppose.

      @lnxw48 @denommus But still, even when upgrading glibc and other deps, as long as they're in your symlink forest, hand-compiled should work.

      @clacke @lnxw48 I believe the specific glibc version used by the compiled packages isn't going to be gc'd. Did that happen to you?

      @denommus @lnxw48 If you compiled your own stuff, outside of nixpkgs, there is no way for Nix to know.

      @deavmi @marcus "Knowing LISP" on this level is trivial. You need to understand that there are keywords, strings and nested parentheses.

      @deavmi @denommus #nixos and #guixsd install method is the coolest. Define system, apply to reality. But some manual preparation necessary.

      @deavmi Go me then! That's how it feels to be using #nixos or #guixsd.
