So I tried Vanilla OS, it's pretty cool. It won't be
replacing NixOS tho! I love the concept of OSTree and
OSTree adjucent systems, but ultimately you can't do
as much as with them, even with the adddition of adding
nixpkgs to the container environment ala Vanilla OS,
but it is getting closer to being more versatile.
Also, I'd like to replace my Wordpess site with Ghost
or some sort of static site. I mean, there's nothing
wrong per se with Wordpress, but I feel like it doesn't
have a lot of flexibility itself. It ends up looking
similar to every other Wordpress site out there, and
there's tons of Wordpress sites that turn people off of
them.
As far as Gemini goes, I still love Gemini a lot, altho
I dislike the TLS requirements, even tho I know that it's
needed to prove identity and for security reasons I suppose.
I really don't know what I want to do with my site if we're
being honest, I just DO know that I need to write more. Like,
a lot more, and read as well. There's no other option than
to take up the pen as much as possible, even when I don't
feel like it.
Anyways, that's all for now!
Hmm, basically I need to figure out how to keep my logs
in sync across all my servers. That is to say, the servers
running Gemini, Gopher, Spartan and Wordpress. I really
wish Wordpress had a way to submit to the site via the
command-line. There's probably a plugin for that, but
I have no idea if that plugin would work with NixOS unless
it required a lot of fiddling around, lol. For now I'll
just work on making sure everything is in sync for
Gemini, Gopher and Spartan.
I keep trying to update every single day, but it's
very difficult for me. Needless to say, I am currently
using Emacs a lot again. In fact I am typing this in
Emacs right now. Emacs+NixOS or Guix makes everything
so easy it's unbelievable, really.
I want to really switch to Guix in the future, mostly
because I feel that Guix has everything I want in an
OS, and I admire their mission. It's just, since they
use the Linux Libre kernel, I can't use my wireless
internet with it and I only have access to the wireless
connection right now because of my home circumstances.
Not much to report today! Just trying to keep things
going!
Edited to add:
Gonna start doing BSD/Linux distro reviews. For new
AND old distros, and from then, howtos and config
files.
