@suswombat92:matrix.org | * So i havent used nixos so far but i really like the idea of it and as i recently switched back to windows (from arch/ubuntu) id like to explore wsl. Is wsl-nixos only usefull for nixos users or can i use it as a new "nixos" user aswell? | 19:51:49 |
K900 | You can | 19:53:08 |
K900 | But you'll probably be missing out on some of the advantages of NixOS, like declaratively configuring system services, because WSL doesn't really have any | 19:53:53 |
@suswombat92:matrix.org | ok. Im mostly intrested in the declarative package config and stuff (home manager) | 20:05:50 |

@suswombat92:matrix.org | Is there a way to switch to unstable in nixos-wsl? | 07:01:13 |
K900 | Yes, you can just do that the same way you do it on normal NixOs | 07:01:44 |
@suswombat92:matrix.org | ok thank you! | 07:01:55 |
@suswombat92:matrix.org | one more question (sry) am i going to regrett not learning that flakes stuff from the beginning on? | 07:02:32 |
K900 | No | 07:03:13 |
K900 | Flakes aren't real | 07:03:18 |

@suswombat92:matrix.org | thanks | 07:11:40 |
@suswombat92:matrix.org | i really think nix-wsl is a great way to learn nix | 07:12:57 |
@suswombat92:matrix.org | it being "isolated" is a good thing for now because otherwise i would have given up already i think | 07:13:27 |
@suswombat92:matrix.org | "Grant your user ownership of /etc/nixos" is this dangerous? | 07:21:35 |
K900 | No | 07:36:20 |
K900 | You still need root to actually activate the new configuration | 07:36:29 |
