As an Australian, I can confidently tell you, as a matter of fact, that I'm a paid actor, who lives in some kind of amorphous aether between the mesosphere and troposphere.
I'm surprised we get internet up here.

The config files literally won't compile if there is an incompatibility or error in the code.
Also, every distro has an audience who love to brag about it. The worst part of being a Nix user is I can no longer say "Arch BTW".
I'm still a Linux noob all things considered, and I've been using NixOS for six months or more.
It is HARD, but I see the true value of it. I will never need to reinstall Linux because I broke it, that's simply impossible.
If I ever need to migrate my system, it's all backed up to github. With a single
Bash update.sh
every single .config file backed up, system upgraded, all packages updated.
I just love Nix, it's the perfect OS for me.
Now I just need to learn how to use flakes...
Sidebar: I've never asked before, but maybe someone can help me out. If I install a flake of an application, am I supposed to add it to the existing flake, or can I modulate flakes?
I've noticed when installing the nixvim flake it generates a new flake and it runs when I issue the
nix run ~/.dotfiles/nixvim/flake.nix
command, but I don't want to have to run that command every time. I feel like making a fish abbreviation isn't the correct way of doing this.
Ha. You want STABLE, use NixOS.
If you're cannot parse the configuration file, you don't update. It is perfectly, 100% stable, about 60% of the time (when I change my config file without an error).

Class traitor.
Is this some kind of advanced sarcasm I've never known about until now?
You can also buy wolf piss but everyone loses their mind when a girl with pink hair sells her farts :(
Holy shit, I bet you know how to triforce too.

It's tangential, but I often struggle to start things unless I can do it perfectly.
I have to remind myself "done is better than perfect".
My Mum has started doing flying fox (big bat) rescues this year. They are the most adorable creatures. To keep the pups feeling safe and secure, they're rolled up in a burrito blanket, and given a dummy. They're very sweet animals once you get to know them.
(Don't handle them yourself though, if you can avoid it, they typically have viruses which are deadly)
Protip: in your car, adjust your rear view mirror, so its angled higher than your resting position. This way you're reminded to straighten your back and sit upright. Furthermore, the back of your head should touch the headrest.
(From previous replies to this advice, some of you have shit car-seats and/or head rests, so modify this advice to suit you.)
Protip 2: an amazing exercise to practice: stand with your back against a wall, with your feet one foot away from the wall. Try to press the lowest point of your skull against the wall, as high as you can (your chin should feel like it's tucked slightly).
Then, raise your arms flat against the wall, like the picture below. You'll need to move your arms around slightly, but you'll eventually feel the perfect spot where your spine begins to straighten out.
Hold this position for a minute. Do this multiple times a day and your posture will improve drastically.
Wow that case you mention is fucked.
I can't imagine life after blowing my face off, on top of whatever made things bad enough to go that far.
