    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’m tempted to say either The Witcher 3, Grand Theft Auto V, or Metal Gear Solid 5 (if you can look past the fact it’s unfinished).

    All three are exceptionally polished, have huge, highly detailed world’s to explore, cinematic moments with blockbuster action scenes, smooth and balanced gameplay, are suitable for gaming noobs and veterans, and has moments to goof off and dick around.

    It’s hard not to be biased, though I’ll state I don’t personally like GTAV, I think it’s perhaps too ordinary for my tastes and feels too restrictive in its mission structure.
