In reply to @ckie:ckie.dev
i just had a neat little thought. what if we had an emacs distro like doom, but it's built by nix exclusively
I definitely think this is the way to go
22:09:04
@k0kada:matrix.orgk0kada (he/him)Much easier to use the Emacs things that Nixpkgs already has instead of patching doom22:09:28
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them; limited keyboard usage, voice preferred)we'd probably still need some mechanisms for getting a specific version of an *ELPA/git package23:25:50
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them; limited keyboard usage, voice preferred)another part is doom seems to be getting scope creep'd with profiles and all of that23:27:08
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them; limited keyboard usage, voice preferred) i don't actually know of much more big/obvious scope creepy things but the project definitely seems to have gotten Heavier, and profiles & the doom! macro are very much in Nix's wheelhouse 23:29:12
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them; limited keyboard usage, voice preferred)i'm still not sure though, doom core also has accumulated lots of useful lil tweaks that'd be a shame to lose23:30:30

@JoelMcCracken:matrix.orgJoelMcCrackeni read them from the filesystem03:41:15
@JoelMcCracken:matrix.orgJoelMcCrackenor from environment variables03:41:23
@JoelMcCracken:matrix.orgJoelMcCrackenthey're totally exteneral to nix tho, stored within ~/secrets03:43:19
@JoelMcCracken:matrix.orgJoelMcCrackeni have a thing which syncs the contents of what is in ~/secrets with what is in a specific bitwarden03:43:51
@JoelMcCracken:matrix.orgJoelMcCrackenit has a goldbergian aspect to it but it works03:44:10
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them; limited keyboard usage, voice preferred) JoelMcCracken: typically you need to update everything ~together-ish, at least HM and nixpkgs 13:30:43
@ckie:ckie.devckie (they/them; limited keyboard usage, voice preferred)and emacs-overlay, though it has breaking changes less frequently13:30:58
@JoelMcCracken:matrix.orgJoelMcCrackenty!13:31:25
