  • Thought as much, Oh well it would have been nice if it was possible to select, devops engineer working with .net core and java microservices and Azure functions. Then you’d get all the basics in one bundle docker, azure-cli,ps, .net sdk, openjdk,kubectl,k9s and then build on that.

    I fully accept that many people have many use-cases but there is a lot of commonality, Ubuntu knocks out things like DAW, Kali has a load of preloaded tools Sci linux again comes with pre-loading.

    The graphical installer let’s you chose a DE so y’know a basic workflow bundle.

    My first week with NixOs I had to clear out 30 odd generations because I was doing oh! yeh, and this


  • It’s not NixOS I’m bothered about, it’s all the stuff I’ve installed on Arch over the last few years - like yq, I use it once in a blue moon.

    The main reason I’m switching to NixOS is that it has configuration.nix , flakes and home-manager. Put it like this a while back I struggled to get wasm containers working in docker, I did a lot of faffing including g I stalling extra binfmt’s different wasm runtime, only to realise that wasm wasn’t available in the version of docker I was using, so I installed beta, broke a whole load of stuff.

    My core use case is if I break stuff then I can go back a gen or two. Which is what I’ve been trying out on an old spare laptop.

    I’m pretty much upto speed on searching stable and u stable packages and option but thank anyway
