@IncredibleLaser Okay, extendModules is what I meant in the forum post with merging the attribute sets of nixosConfigurations, good find.

But this doesn't solve the other mentioned problems in the post, e.g. handling of input following, which becomes tedious in this approach. And it requires […]

@IncredibleLaser Thanks. Did you read the forum post? agenix and sops-nix are not usable for nix modules that should stay secret.

@stphrolland.bsky.social Thanks, that's what I would do if I actually needed kbibtex, which I don't currently 😅

Still habing massibe problems with my #PineTime. It keeps freezing randomly, feels like chsrging it to 100% is a guarantee to blackscreen it. Weird graphical glitches, the green (bootloader?) pinecone often not finishing, just getting stuck, sometimes the pinecone starts mid-screen, gets stuck […]

A :nixos: #nix flake next to the file would basically solve this, but one would need to go through the terminal. `nix develop` or something, then use the provided executable to open the file. But that's not very ergonomic. I guess it would be possible to turn the file into some kind of nix […]

Upgrade to :nixos: #nixos 25.11 hit some road blocks¹.

- had pinned agenix weirdly, Using the flake now
- My PR² to add ACME TLS mode didn't apply anymore. *again* for the bazillionth time. But I really need it, I have machines with blocked port 80 where I don't control DNS. So I rebased (man […]

PLOS being a non-profit #openaccess journal really resonated with me. This is what we need instead of big publishers like Elsevier doing their proprietary/monopoly thing, so I wanted to try PLOS at least once.

Still, for a *non-profit*, publishing fees just below 3000$ is a bit... high? But […]
