minus-squareFirst_Thunder@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 day agoDon’t install NixOS. Seriously. It is insanity
minus-squareunderisk@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkarrow-up8·1 day agoDon’t install NixOS because it’s got Anduril and Palantir all over it.
minus-squareSatyrSack@quokk.aulinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·20 hours agoWhat does “all over it” mean in this context?
minus-squarejackr@lemmy.dbzer0.comlinkfedilinkarrow-up6·20 hours agoBig users, contributors, and sponsors. Sponsored Nixcon. The nix organisation seems to have no problem with this.
minus-squaredjsaskdja@reddthat.comlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3arrow-down1·1 day agoI’d be willing to argue that running anything OTHER than NixOS is insanity. Except maybe Debian. Everyone loves Debian.

minus-squaremech@feddit.orglinkfedilinkarrow-up6·1 day agoTheir recommendation usually starts with a disclaimer, and ends with “But it’s worth it, cause you can easily clone your machine”. For me, one look at https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/#ch-configuration and https://nixos.org/manual/nixos/stable/options is enough to know it’s way too much hassle for me. I’ll stick with Slackware.
