This. If your distribution isn't used in drones and other instruments of war it's just a juvenile toy.

It doesn't support my hardware.
NixOS doesn't have this problem.

Based. For me? It's guix and monero for silly war stuff.

AHAHAHAHA you were saying? Your entire OS has a lgbt logo as part of it's official branding that it switches to during pride month.

after the SystemD incident, I am thinking seriously to port my big iron to GNU GUIX.

This implies someone has to port Nix ANDURIL VR1S1 STIG into an GNU Anduril STIG for Shepherd.

If you want to work on it, here is the publicly available document transcription of Nix Anduril under Affero.

The document was transcribed manually. Personal guarantee.

hyperbola, parabola and trisquel are much better fully free distros.

Use nonguix, nixxer.

I've been using GNU Guix for almost 6 years, but recently bought a newer Nvidia card and it's basically impossible to make it work.
I managed to make it work on an older GPU (RTX 2090) using nonguix, but this fucking RTX 5060 really made me switch to Arch. Ironically, Arch was the only distro I managed to install with ease. Even NixOS was a bitch, X11 build for NixOS is dogshit.

Man, I want to go back to Guix so bad. Roughly all my projects are set with manifest files and orchestrated with guix.

I'm working with graphics, very hard to keep a pipeline working on bare metal if you're using AMD or Arc. At least I still got my older computer with GNU Guix, I'm lazy to turn it on right now lol

how does guix system vm compare to microvm.nix?
more specifically i have a bunch of vms in a flake that share modules and reference information about each other. i deploy them (imperatively) with microvm.nix. how does that work in guix land?
>>
Post configs?
https://bpa.st/CNJQ
>>
>>108717301
I really want to like Guix (Scheme > Nix DSL), but NixOS provides a way better out of the box experience. And I don't mean because of non-free (although that is a factor).
>>
Goddamn, Bazzite's last update did broke all virtualization stuff and even "ujust setup-virtualization" somehow fails to bring it back. I've been playing with Guix in a VM and can't even run it now. Maybe it's a sign that I should just say fuck it and install it on my main partition.

Oh, they simply decided to remove it out of the blue, just like they did with toolbox in past.
>>
>>108722010
Whats better ? I've used Guix for a year but never tried nix
>>
>>108722746
Fortunately it's easily fixed with layering. Still retarded though.
>>
>>108722001
I only recently started tinkering in a VM: https://bpa.st/EFNQ
I use gpt5.4-medium heavily, and it is quite rough, for example by default nonguix steam doesn't even create a launcher icon and is only available from command line. Also, it runs in some kind of "nonguix sandbox" because of directory structure and protonup-qt together with umu-run should also be set up to run in the same sandbox because they need to access/manage proton installs there. Everything regarding gaming stuff needs to be implemented in the config, nothing really works out of the box. Good to have good AI, otherwise it wouldn't be viable at all. At least this config works and I just checked installing latest GE-Proton via ProtonUp-Qt and it immediately became visible in Steam. Which is success.
>>
>>108722010
I mean it's super easy and understandable to get to a default coherent desktop of your release cadence choosing. There were a number of things. But for example, it took a really long time for GNOME to show logout/restart prompts. I've not seen such a thing before. I suspect there might be onboarding information in the Guix texinfo documentation, but it wasn't readily available onine as NixOS provides for.
>>
>>108723399 (Me)
Oops, that was meant to be a reply to this:
>>108722793
>>
>>108722793
Also, Nonguix was a struggle. I think if there ever is a next time, it will be in a VM with lots of patient documentation reading. But they don't make it easy. Probably because they're still in the developer-user phase of distro life.

I can't live without USE flags.

does Guix have something like Stylix on NixOS to declaratively configure a color scheme for both GTK and Qt programs?
>>
>>108723758
i hope not, sounds pretty gay
>>
>>108723917
I want at least most of my software to have the same color scheme and not get flashbanged by shit
