NixOS: Everything Everywhere All At Once

Alternate Title: NixOS: Stability on the Bleeding-Edge One day, as happens now and then with a bleeding-edge rolling release distro, a systemd update reversed my mouse buttons. The great thing about rolling-release and cutting-edge distributions like Arch Linux, is that you get to be a beta tester, whether you like it or not! I thought this was the way it had to be on Linux: Stability or cutting-edge features, not both. But that wasn't right at all, with NixOS you can have everything, everywhere all at once! ❤️ If you would like to support what I do, I have set up a Patreon here: https://www.patreon.com/noboilerplate - Thank you! 📄 All my videos are built in compile-checked markdown, transcript source code available here https://github.com/0atman/noboilerplate this is also where you'll find links to everything mentioned. 🖊️ Corrections are in the pinned ERRATA comment. 🦀 Start your Rust journey here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2hXNd6x9sZs 👕 Bad shirts available here https://www.teepublic.com/user/no-boilerplate 🖼️ The Phosphene Catalogue is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y3wVvDbJHrU 🛰️ Lost Terminal is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3bDE9kszMc 🌕 Modem Prometheus is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SDnUVHAC44 🎵 My published albums are on spotify, itunes, etc, but I have a lot more unpublished work over at https://soundcloud.com/namtao 🙏🏻 CREDITS & PROMO My name is Tris Oaten and I produce fast, technical videos.
