I was in Iceland for vacation, so I was waiting in line for a rental car. I hear a very familiar voice in front of me and I realized it was a good friend from high school I whom hadn't seen or really talked to in years.

I chose the mirror cause I was just writing that comment super quickly on my phone. But uh, thanks for the right link I guess?

I'm not the op, but I've been using guix for several months on a new fairly top of the line desktop PC and it's going great. I've been able to play steam games and set up my dev environment with basically no issues.

The catch is you need to use non-official repositories (i.e. https://github.com/nonguix/nonguix) to use the non-libre kernel and other software not on the official channel.

There's also this nice little search engine - https://toys.whereis.みんな/ - where you can look for packages from other repos (or channels as they are called in guix).

I use Nix on my macos work laptop to set up my dev environment, but I definitely prefer guix so far, mostly due to the it being configured in guile over the weird nix language. The biggest advantage I see of Nix is that it has a bit more features and lots more packages.

I am a pretty hardcore emacs user and lisp lover though, so ymmv.

This is my go to during cold months, though I usually see it made with scotch instead of bourbon.

There's a lot more on the ballots than just the president. Local politicians will probably affect you more than who is in the white house.

I don't think killing more people is the answer here.

I've heard it kind of blows.

Ha yes it is! I (obviously...) love it too

You really do. I'm pretty sure I see your comments in every thread I read.

This is the way.

I did work in 2020 though, after the country saw Trump as president. So we can only hope it will work again.
