Just posted a new video in my TLDR series this time all about apps in Nix Flakes. Check it out, maybe this is a feature of Nix Flakes that you didn't know about.

More retro nostalgic tech. I am rather tempted to build one of these as I already have everything connected to Home Assistant.

Make sure vim terminate itself after 300 seconds. truly evil 😈
```
alias vim='timeout 300 vim'
```

The timeout command is a simple way to let a command run for a given amount of time. www.cyberciti.biz/faq/linux-ru...
Linux run a command with a time limit (timeout)

I detest the official Discord client on Linux and have been relegated to using the web client. This is at the top of my list to try as it sounds like just what I need!

First attempt at making something like this so have at it. Heavily inspired by DHH's Omarchy and borrowed a lot of clever structure and other code from omarchy-nix by Henry Sipp. Happy to accept PRs and issues.

You're part way through a command and realise that you need to run something else first. Simply hit home and insert a # in front of your command to turn it into a comment. Hit enter and now type your new command. When done return to previous command and delete out the #. Productivity!
