I run Borg backup, and I did a successful live test yesterday. Deleted the wrong file and hade to restore it.

I love my wireless charger. I have an older iPhone with their stupid lightning port, no USB C for me. So instead I just use my wireless charger. No fuss with cables, put it on the pad to charge, pick it up to check something, put it back on. No fuss, no mess, perfection.


What do you use for OCR parsing?


TestFlight for their iOS app is full. :-(


I meant driving in ordinary traffic.


This reminds me of my parents explaning to me as a kid that even if you are the best driver in the world, everyone else is not and they cannot read your mind. So it would still be dangerous.


I want this for cleaning my house. When did I last clean my dish washer, the lamps etc. It’s on my TODO to create when I have time.


I was considering putting the secrets somewhere not in /etc/nixos/ and just point to them. Then I could push my nix files without worry. My plan was to use my other server as a remote with just git and ssh, but that server is not responding and is ~6 by car away from me (I don’t own a car). It will be traveling here soon so I can configure it and send it back though.
Thanks for the link to sops-nix, I will check it out. As you said, NixOS is great when you have it running. I can’t see myself going back to debian now.


I used it via Kagi. I’m not sure how they handle it on their end but I can swich between any model that is included in my subscription.


I suggest giving NixOS a try. I recommend it because it makes it easy to add or remove stuff. Changing names on containers, removing installed application etc is just changing your configuration. And if you mess something up and it does not boot, you can just boot from the last working configuration.
Containers are also really easy to manage. Convert a docker run command with https://www.composerize.com/ and then use https://github.com/aksiksi/compose2nix to convert the yaml file to a nix file. Configure as needed.


I used Kimi K2 to start learning the Nix language. It really cut down time when trying to understand what I did wrong when switching configurations threw errors.


It is an automation platform with a selfhosted tier.


Where do you push to? I have some secrets in my nix files (passwords). While I will get around to move them away from my nix files soonTM, I don’t want to push those to a public repo.


I’d wager a guess that the designer had what you described in mind, but someone else did not.


In only have one server with NixOS. I don’t use flakes, just plain nix files. It still works great as documentation.
The only thing it is missing is why something is setup in a certain way.
You need spoiler tags the hide the ending until I pay $5.
I have similar stats on my server. I have ~40 containers running (some are duplicate because I am to lazy to combine all PSQL servers). And since I am the only user, most of them are idle for a lot of the time.



The code is still on GitHub, just an earlier commit: https://github.com/chatgptprojects/clear-code/tree/627ab39f09681d9c7d6915861d36d361bdc6d889
That’s one I’d have the facility owner hire someone to test.
