@ruffsl I wanted #nixos to be my distro. It really is great... Until you need random things. I won't say anything bad about it, however, it doesn't work for me.

As soon as you veer off the beaten path, things can get really tricky.

For med tech and robotics development, I'm still using Debian via docker because the surrounding ecosystems for those software communities are so tightly integrated with the Debian.

@chasehainey @ruffsl Try 'claude code' to jiggle config. (Claude works directly on your files at the command line under your supervision. Fabulous, fast, fun, fixing flakes.)
