I was just thinking this. All one big illusion that we can't understand because the universe evolves across billions of years; and we as humans haven't even been here for a million

I ended up installing the nox package manager on my gentoo machine, and it's been useful so far. Got some packages installed that aren't in the native Gentoo repo

Genuinely curious cause i don't know much nixos, does it support an equivalent to USE flags or slots?

Or Gentoo? I haven't used nixos yet so cant speak on it but Gentoo has been awesome to tinker and learn with.
