Immerhin habe ich es unter die ersten 1000 Abonnenten geschafft. Du bist (mit Abstand) der RUclipsr den ich in Bezug auf IT und Hardware am liebsten sehe. Weiter so.
This video arrived at the perfect time for me. I have my PC situated in a ventilated closet that sits between our family room and my office. It is hooked up to our nice TV and my office monitors... But I'm tired of the rigamarole of monitor nonsense with windows when switching between them. Two weeks ago I decided upon a new plan: a windows partition for my FPS and keyboard centric gaming, along with lots of the things I need windows for in the home office, and a Linux partition for gaming. My Obsidian note says: "Nobara, Garuda, Bazzite, ChimeraOS, or NixOS?" I already use NixOS for my server and my laptop. There's also the matter of what I should put on my new Legion Go alongside Windows... Edit: I do have a 4090, which could throw a wrench into things. I also would probably need to keep VR on my windows partition...
My htpc looks VERY similar 😅 I struggled with bazite and 4070, which is expected. I put Windows on it, and autostart stream big picture. But I'm looking for a way to transition to gamescope. Let's see, either wait for steamos or give nix a try.
If this guy starts selling nixboxes he might have a business. If he only sells 100 nixboxes per year he'd have 100k in revenue, the sky is the limit, and then sell the company to valve, as I'm sure they'd love that somebody finished their vision and they have the same philosophie with the openness and modularity. This is the way to go.
@@wolfgangs2ndchannel411 I should clarify you didn't literally say it that way, but I do distinctly remember you being reluctant (in RUclips comments) to get into Nix back when you still used Ubuntu+Ansible for managing/deploying your home server. That was before you dove head-first into the Nix rabbit hole lol. Anyway, great talk. Maybe I'll build something like this soon if I have the cash to spend.
When I first heard of NixOS and its "Single config file" structure I was very enthusiastic. Until I opened the thing and closed it after about 30 seconds. No way I'm translating that. I've got better chances learning Hebrew.
It's not YAML or JSON. NixOS uses its own DSL called Nix, which is a functional programming language. It's fairly simple if you do very basic things, but as soon as you get into multi-host configurations, secret management and/or custom services and modules, you've got your hands full as a beginner. Even templating YAML/JSON config files for 3rd party apps/services is not trivial. You can write the configuration in Nix directly and use `pkgs.formats` tools to convert your configuration to YAML or JSON, but there is no established workflow for templating out a configuration file in its original format (e.g. ansible.builtin.template). Instead, you get to write your own derivation which includes a function for templating arbitrary text files using "mustache tempplates": pablo.tools/blog/computers/nix-mustache-templates/
we got a new Wolfgang's 2nd Channel upload before GTA 6 🗿

Super Vortrag, wirklich gut!
Congrats on giving the presentation, Wolfgang! Very entertaining vid even though I don't use nix
Holy moly, I've used that exact Jovian flake to get Game Mode functional on my NixOS config. Figured that might've been being used here.
This is awesome. Thank you for sharing!
Great presentation, I hope we see more NixOS from you!
The undervolting feature could be a good thing for nixos-hardware and nixos-facter ;)
Great Video, learned a lot!
wow, I don't even know Wolfgang is part of nixos contributor
Ich komme aus HD und habe nichts über Hackerstolz ev gewusst, nun habe ich dein Video endeckt. Vielleicht sieht man sich ja mal in Live :)
Am 14. Januar treffen wir uns in Mannheim zu unserem nächsten Rust-Meetup, falls dich das interessiert. :)
i am your 800th sub, great vid
Bro, you look even younger😮, if you told me you were 19 I would have believed you m8!

Comrade Wolfgang
Hey!!! a vid in your secondary channel :-p how nice
I still remember when Wolfgang said he didn't see the point of Nix and did everything with Ansible lmao.
I don't remember saying that 🤔

I just installed Nix on a qemu VM and did my first eddit of config.nix. Any tips on how to learn it?
Julia Evans made some great Nix blog posts. They really helped me out in my Nix journey.
Omg he stands! ❤😅
nice video
what’s wolfgang’s first channel??

Bs, it's basically just simple yaml or json.
Its just key-value pairs with some extra features like defining variables

@wolfgangs2ndchannel411 You just proved my point.
hiiii❤
Why does Wolfgang actually look like Steve Jobs
Turtlenecksweater
👋
I think this video would do nicely on the main channel :) why not upload it there?
Well, it won't fit for style of Main channel
Nice Talk, thank you very much. You hammering your touchpad is a bit annoying 😜
Hearing you smash the keyboard is beyond annoying
