    I’m still a Linux noob all things considered, and I’ve been using NixOS for six months or more.

    It is HARD, but I see the true value of it. I will never need to reinstall Linux because I broke it, that’s simply impossible.

    If I ever need to migrate my system, it’s all backed up to github. With a single

    Bash update.sh
    

    every single .config file backed up, system upgraded, all packages updated.

    I just love Nix, it’s the perfect OS for me.

    Now I just need to learn how to use flakes…

    Sidebar: I’ve never asked before, but maybe someone can help me out. If I install a flake of an application, am I supposed to add it to the existing flake, or can I modulate flakes?

    I’ve noticed when installing the nixvim flake it generates a new flake and it runs when I issue the

    nix run ~/.dotfiles/nixvim/flake.nix
    

    command, but I don’t want to have to run that command every time. I feel like making a fish abbreviation isn’t the correct way of doing this.

    Protip: in your car, adjust your rear view mirror, so its angled higher than your resting position. This way you’re reminded to straighten your back and sit upright. Furthermore, the back of your head should touch the headrest.

    (From previous replies to this advice, some of you have shit car-seats and/or head rests, so modify this advice to suit you.)

    Protip 2: an amazing exercise to practice: stand with your back against a wall, with your feet one foot away from the wall. Try to press the lowest point of your skull against the wall, as high as you can (your chin should feel like it’s tucked slightly).

    Then, raise your arms flat against the wall, like the picture below. You’ll need to move your arms around slightly, but you’ll eventually feel the perfect spot where your spine begins to straighten out.

    Hold this position for a minute. Do this multiple times a day and your posture will improve drastically.

    I knew a girl, whose mother sold off her house because a mystic/fortune teller/crystal fellator/astrologist told her to.

    Now, whether she just inferred this on her own, or the scam artist explicitly suggested it, the outcome was the same.

    Making real life decisions based off a set of tarot cards is not wise.
