I cut it off for comedic purpose, but this is the rest:

"Mullvad VPN has random issues that I have to fix after work, and it seems a lot of my time will now be spent doing technical work, instead of gaming, on my gaming rig. This is fine, as I want to learn and expand my career potential.

In other words, God has forsaken us all."

Born to game, forces to code

[-] bluespin@lemmy.world 21 points 6 months ago

yup, sounds like nixos

[-] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 8 points 6 months ago

Yeah, but being able to roll back without fail is giving me great peace of mind. I've had "fuck"s before, and it's never fun.

Still, this specific issue will probably occur in all distros. My hardware is extremely new.

[-] bluespin@lemmy.world 8 points 6 months ago

That aspect of nixos is great. I ran it for a while and found that it's excellent once you have things working, but debugging and getting to that place was far more painful than with other distros. In a few years I'll try switching to it again

The first time I read you message, for some reason, I thought you had written

This is way too accurate

But why a reinstall?

Tethering should work in your installation, as the installer uses an LTS kernel just like the installed system. Use it, edit config to use latest Linux, nixos-rebuild boot, reboot.

Won't fix Ethernet obviously but I don't see the need for reinstallation

[-] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 6 months ago

Because it was very early on (absolutely no use beyond fixing this issue), tethering no longer worked, and restarting the process proved to be much faster and practical. I just played several hours of Cyberpunk 2077, so it went well. Good game, might I add.

[-] Laser@feddit.org 4 points 6 months ago

Ok, I just think it's weird that tethering broke. I guess you mean via USB? Or via something else
