      NixOS ended up disappointing me a fair bit. I just tried it recently and the KDE support seems very rough so far, or at least I couldn’t find good answers to how to configure it and theme it.

          One of the main draw of NixOs is the reproducibility of builds, meaning that redoing the build will provide the exact same output each time, so Nix encourages you to make configuration changes through the package manager. I’ve mostly overcome my theming woes with home-manager now, but this comment was speaking to a little wrinkle I had when I was trying to learn and take advantage of the OS’s features as best I could.

            Home manager is the way to do it though.

            The main configuration handles configuration of the system, home manager project was created to bring similar functionality for the user home directory. That’s where the name comes from.

            Home manager also works great when using Nix on other systems to manage for files, for example on OS X.

        The documentary host went on:

        After hearing about their “totally riced” setup for hours, the exhausted predator dies a painless death in the icy waters. A mercy the breedable Rust peers of the Arch user, drunk on their freshly claimed victory, will not share. Already displaying socks as part of their mating ritual, no baby-faced creature that knows its way around a terminal is safe. They are not taken by force however. Rather they freeze, smitten by the confidence the incredibly annoying apex predator radiates. Feeling used, but also strangely satisfied, the confused boy is left wondering why they aren’t using Arch, when Wiki and the AUR are so incredibly useful. Maybe it’s that symbiosis that keeps them together: Curiosity, Fear and the common Arch user’s incredible displays of power.

    As an Arch user you just push other Arch users in. It’s kinda how as a Windows user you set that checkbox that says smth like “update me ASAP” on other people’s windows install, so they get used as bugtesting sheep instead of you.

    Also I use Garuda and they setup snapshots for me as I don’t know how any of that works.

    I agree, KDE is totally broken in old TVs. So I have to live without power management no blanking and no suspension lol…
