I second OpenSnitch. It's the most annoying program i run, but the control it gives you over your outbound connections is so worth it from a security and privacy standpoint.
Once you start and run this you get to truly see how many different URLs are loaded when visiting just one website
I believe in situations like filesystem corruption you can recreate the filesystem, make sure not to format, and you'll get back the files that weren't corrupted. Not 100% certain this works for NTFS tho
I'm not a kernel expert but found a good way to solve the "which modules do i need" delimma is to use modprobed-db. First compile with all modules, run modprobed-db every once in a while to store which modules are loaded and then run "make localmodconfig".
Have you ever compiled your own kernel? Could be the upgraded version doesn't enable a module your motherboard needed or something. A fairly simple test would be to compile thw kernel with everything enabled as a module and use that

Genuinely curious cause i don't know much nixos, does it support an equivalent to USE flags or slots?
Or Gentoo? I haven't used nixos yet so cant speak on it but Gentoo has been awesome to tinker and learn with.
Book stores?
