Découverte de la journée :
input {
kb_layout = us,ca
kb_options = grp:caps_toggle
}
En configurant #Hyprland sur #Nixos, je ne comprenais pas comment changer mon layout de clavier. Pour finalement me rendre compte de modifier "kb_options".
En gossant, j'ai compris que je pouvais aussi modifier ma touche Capslock pour changer le layout. Très utile quand on change clavier US à CA.

Keep ping as NixOS service

This is the only practical written advice I've seen about composing #NixOS configuration:

En passant mon ordinateur secondaire à #NixOS je me suis mis à tester des logiciels alternatifs :
- #zenbrowser au lieu de #librewolf
- #fish au lieu de #zsh
- #starship au lieu de #spaceship
- #fastfetch au lieu de #neofetch
Et ces changements sont également très agréables !
ahhh help. #nixos
what is nsncd? searching online isn't giving me much insight. only find things about nscd.
I really like the easy way that NixOS enables you to get rid of all cruft through one config file. Discover, kwallet and elisa are part of the Plasma metapackage. Removing them in other distros gets you the warning that you, by removing them, are actually removing Plasma. Not so in NixOS. a clean working Plasma session remains, without those unnecessary addons. Re-adding them is one simple edit away.
Yay! My recent apparmor update PR to #nixos [1] has now hit the nixos-unstable repository! This means 4.1.0 is available, with various improvements.
With that PR, i completely rewrote the #nix packaging. It now supports pkgsMusl, pkgsCross and pkgsLLVM. It has the build checks flipped on, and packaging is massively simplified.
Making all this work wasn't trivial, and some oversights were made. Those have been corrected in follow-ups, though the functionality should be available already. Do report issues with this update!
Sadly, 4.1.0 does not yet bring the needed optimizations to the alias system that are necessary to efficiently confine all of the nix store effectively. That part is still a WIP.
I also have to say: I am impressed with apparmor upstream. While doing this update, i noticed the parser check suite failing when compiling against Musl libc. Apparmor is maintained by cannonical devs, ubuntu does not use musl. Yet they were willing to listen, debug and fix these issues. While not everything has been fixed yet (this is an ongoing effort), it is nice to see upstream developers wanting to support the "weird" platforms like musl nixos.
nsncd been going 100% CPU for almost 24 hrs on my home server. i added one video to Jellyfin.
this computer cannot handle jellyfin. i was just testing if things 'worked'.
also, what the heck is nsncd?
Polish below / Polski poniżej, boosts appreciated!
I’m very glad to announce we have an official date for the next Nix User Group Poland Meetup! If you happen to be around Gdańsk, Warsaw, or Poznan on the 23rd of May, please come to either HS3, HSWaw, or HSPoz and join us for some great talks, great people, and great Nix. We’ll be starting at 17.00.
We coordinated between the three hackerspaces to connect them through streams, so any talk in any place will be appreciated from all 3.
We’re still open for more talks, so be sure to use the submission form or contact me directly if you want to share anything nix-related with our community.
More info at our channels:

We hope to see you there!

Do zobaczenia!
@aires I'm already using it! Although not because it's made in rust, purely because I found some Nix tooling really doesn't accommodate doas 🙄
I can't remember them all, but I know deploy-rs was the one that "pushed me over the edge", as it would only work with sudo, so I went with the more minimal sudo-rs implementation.
That said, what I've seen mentioned elsewhere which I'm really interested in, is run0

Although it doesn't seem to work on NixOS, unless anyone's aware of any workarounds? This is the most recent (Nix oriented) post I've seen.
@codemonkeymike @system76 I have an entirely different #System76 device.
Although it probably won't correlate with your configuration, I have found that with my first Generation OryxPro laptop, and all the appropriate System76 drivers in my configuration.nix, the fan runs at 100% all of the time. With the latest Pop!_OS updates, the fan runs all the time, but not anywhere near 100%. I assume this may be due to the vintage of my device. That precludes converting it to a home server using #NixOS
@codemonkeymike I know @hadilq uses #System76 with #NixOS
@codemonkeymike @system76 I've never used #NixOS so I'm interested in seeing toots on this thread
