NixOS : no dudes, its not raw screeching madness, its great. Just great. So great. Please read these 17 guides that are outdated more every minute to get started. Also, dont read that guide. We don't do that anymore, but there is no way for me to explain why unless you already know.

Ive tried NixOS three times now, and it hasn't took. Has anyone written a sane guide to the current iteration yet?

Listen. The more painful it is up front, the better you'll feel once you get it.

This is the argument I use to convince straight guys to let me bum them

Just so you know.

Ahh, I didn't realize we had mixed some "git gud" dark souls shit into my devops.

But seriously, I'll give your guide a look. Everyone should taste madness occasionally.

I mean... You liked dark souls, right?

Once nix clicks, you'll know the massive missed potential that ansible is (being just another abstraction layer, and not baked into the package manager itself) and you'll never look at ansible the same way again.

Sure, but that doesnt mean I want to mix its difficulty into code.

I like fried chicken too, but i don't try to somehow add json to it, no matter how sexy those nested brackets get.

Good things dont all have to be sluiced together into a juicy pulp. They can be good all on their lonesome. I can "git gud" in dark souls and enjoy well documented, consistent IaC as well.

Are you mixing metaphors, or enjoying fried chicken in slightly unconventional ways?
