Yeah, but no dark magic involved.

  • build image
  • copy to proxmox ISO store
  • import, resize disk
  • start, wait to come online
  • read ssh pubkey, save it
  • rekey secrets
  • rebuild VM

The only "magic" parts are two nix modules for handling proper networking and hardware setup, and exposing required attributes to the script.

Works really well, zero manual config (beyond the services you want to run...) required on nix or proxmox side.

Nothing. People fearmonger

Funny - same thing here. Got 3 proxmox hosts running, all virtual machines are NixOS though.

I'd love to go full Nix, but between my GF and I, we kinda split the responsibilities: hardware is hers, applications are mine. And there's not a chance she'll give up her Proxmox hosts 😄

Got it automated to a single "provision" command though that will spin up any of my nix VMS unanttended, so I'm happy with that.

Lol. Living alone does not make you lonely.

Honestly, I'm gappy for my fellow Germans that so many are able to live by themselves! It's a good sign that fewer people need to share rent.

It's a goddamn stochastic parrot, starting from zero on each invocation and spitting out something passing for coherence according to its training set.

"Not understanding what is happening" in regards to AI is NOT "we don't jniw how it works mechanically" it's "yeah there are so many parameters, it's just not possible to make sense of / keep track of them all".

There's no awareness or thought.

Now THAT is something I wouldn't ever trust.

maniacally laughs while trying to avoid eye contact with 19k lines of nix config

I bike (more carrying capacity) about 9km each direction. (Belgium to Germany, funnily enough.) That being said, not wanting to do so under the burning sun is absolutely valid.

Better open a package request (or pull request :D) then 😄

I host it publicly accessible behind a proper firewall and reverse proxy setup.

If you are only ever using Jellyfin from your own, wireguard configured phone, then that's great; but there's nothing wrong with hosting Jellyfin publicly.

I think one of these days I need to make a "myth-busting" post about this topic.
