[high imp]

what the fuck

[dusty juniper]

nix is the kinda operating system where you have to rebuild every time you change the configuration

[high imp]

yeah, but rebuilds are incremental

[dusty juniper]

if gentoo had to be rebuilt every time the config was changed then it would be time consuming

i was gonna do the full trace but its bigger than discord will allow

[high imp]

oh shit I know why

[dusty juniper]

why

[high imp]

replace pkgs with (import <nixpkgs> {}) in that snippet

[dusty juniper]

💀

im too lazy just paste it in with the fix

[high imp]

on phine rn

[dusty juniper]

what is a phine

can you tell me if this is right (I dont have image perms so I send in dms)

[high imp]

0hone*

phone

[dusty juniper]

can u tell me if this is right (i dont have image perms so i send in dm

[dusty juniper]

ok

[high imp]

welcome to the funny number factory

[dusty juniper]

you wanna ssh into my computer

but first how to switch to my tailscale ip

[high imp]

both of them coexist

regular internet sees your regular IP, I see your tailscale ip

[dusty juniper]

ok

you wanna ssh into my pc

[high imp]

is your pc down? PING plantgaming.axolotl-snake.ts.net (100.85.250.37) 56(84) bytes of data

[dusty juniper]

and help me with mc launcher being broken

because prism launcher isnt updated yet but official launcher is but its package is broken

[dusty juniper]

my pc is up

anyways wanna welcome my cachyos laptop to the funny number factory so you can see number go up

(it uses arch package system btw)

[high imp]

try rebooting

[dusty juniper]

what where who when why

[high imp]

your device isn't acting networked but shows as connected

[dusty juniper]

ok

first you wanna welcome my cachyos laptop to the funny number factory

[high imp]

yeah, should be just sudo pacman -Syu tailscale

[dusty juniper]

hold on its doing some stuff because upgrading linux-firmware

ok its done now what to do

queston mark

is it already connected as part of my desktop being in the funny number factory and my laptop being connected to the same wifi as my desktop

hello

do you exust

@high imp do you exist

[high imp]

no, not yet

[high imp]

yes, but cat also exists

[dusty juniper]

ok help me transport my laptop into the funny number factory

[high imp]

alright

(cat tax)

[dusty juniper]

what a cute car🚙

[echo flare]

ew this nix os thing sucks .

[high imp]

prove it

[spare quiver]

Hiiii chat

[high imp]

bye

(/j, hi)

[dusty juniper]

hi

[uncut bramble]

[spare quiver]

[high imp]

@wet mist

[wet mist]

wow this exists

Noone ever uses it

[high imp]

yep

googling “quicknix” brings up mosquito treatments

[wet mist]

????

[high imp]

leading #

[wet mist]

lmao

Attempt 2

// List packages in a nix shell
def "qnix ls" [] {
    $env.PATH
    | filter {|it| $it starts-with '/nix/store' }
    | parse --regex '[a-z0-9]{32}-(?<package>.*)-(?<version>.*)/'
}

[high imp]

what shell is that?

[wet mist]

Replace // with #

[high imp]

nushell?

[wet mist]

nushell

[high imp]

automod bypass... /j

this is what I have

nushell seems nice for scripting

[wet mist]

Yeah it's an actually sane scripting lang unlike bash

[high imp]

bash is pretty sane

[wet mist]

It supports data structures

It looks like a normalish programming language

[high imp]

someone wanted me to write an entire package manager in bash
cough cough @wheat moon

[uncut bramble]

I'd argue bash is sane but I can def see why ppl like nu for scripting

[wet mist]

Yeah it's good

https://codeberg.org/KSPAtlas/nufetch/src/branch/main/nufetch.nu a nu fetch script I made for example

[uncut bramble]

ngl nu might be better for scripting than being an actual shell

I should try to use it instead of bash next time I need to make something

[high imp]

ooh it has a fancy prompt out of the box

seems powershell-like?

written in rust I think

[uncut bramble]

it is and that's one of the reasons ppl shill it now apparently

great error handling cuz it basically uses the rust error handler

[wet mist]

Ye it is

[high imp]

looks like ariadne imo

[wet mist]

You can write plugins in rust apparently

[uncut bramble]

might be

[wet mist]

Might be

[high imp]

now I need to make a nix wrapper

[wet mist]

But better

[high imp]

ruby influence

[wet mist]

The only feature I feel nushell repl is really missing is the !* shortcut from bash for taking all the arguments from the previous command

[high imp]

how tf do I define a variable

[wet mist]

Inspired by functional programming apparently

[wet mist]

let name = 'value'

They took the rust approach and made let read only though, for mutable stuff mut x = 5

[high imp]

i love that this is just something it randomly decides to do

[uncut bramble]

superset of JSON as a language

so scuffed

[wet mist]

Yeah idk what the advantage is, NUON exists and they use that for config stuff anyways

[high imp]

already broke it

[wet mist]

That's your terminal fucking up I think idk

Try putting an ansi strip between cal and ANSI gradient

[high imp]

that fixed it

[wet mist]

Yeah I'm guessing the ANSI chars from cal and gradient were conflicting

This already turned into a nushell thread amazing

[uncut bramble]

so good

[high imp]

oh there's no job management

[wet mist]

Unfortunately

They might add it sometime, there are some ways to parallelize but they're not really the same

Nushell is still a beta

[wheat moon]

nixos thread real!?!?!?!?!?

[uncut bramble]

[high imp]

yes and elh (gentoo user) hates it

[spare quiver]

@sleek isle you'll never escape

[high imp]

something is wrong with this image

[spare quiver]

openvpn.nix:

[high imp]

it was originally named openvpn.java

i've been doing java homework for a good part of the day

shit like https://asciinema.org/a/y7IDz0vsPF6rEBHgYIjXHSbmS

[spare quiver]

what even is that site

[high imp]

https://asciinema.org

records terminals

[spare quiver]

https://obsproject.com/

[high imp]

chromebook

[spare quiver]

you have a terminal on a chromebook

but not obs

[high imp]

vscode web

[spare quiver]

horror

[high imp]

http://192.168.1.4:2352

[spare quiver]

even a cheap laptop is better than a chromebook

[high imp]

my cheap laptop is upstairs and broken

this is a school chromebook

you should make an account on http://192.168.1.4:8082

[high imp]

the patch id is dnsmasq

[spare quiver]

mfw local ip

[uncut bramble]

https://discourse.nixos.org/t/nixos-rebuild-ng-a-nixos-rebuild-rewrite/55606

I kinda wanna give a shot at making that in rust some day

[wet mist]

Interesting

it's just a bash script on current nixOS right

[high imp]

yep

i don't really use it

cap nixos b --show-trace to test if things compile

[wet mist]

What do you do when you wanna rebuild the system then

[high imp]

when I'm sure, sudo nixos use result

[high imp]

my nixos wrapper script

and building and switching are separate steps

[wet mist]

Ah I use a "wrapper" for my nixos rebuild too

[high imp]

it's effectively just nix build .#some.fancy.path and sudo result/activate

[wet mist]

til that the latter exists

[high imp]

it does
