Had forgotten it contains one of the greatest editor's notes ever.
![How do you feel about becoming a political lightning rod?
People occasionally just flip [me] off or whatever, but nobody's come up to me and tried to make a statement about anything. Personally, it's kind of dumb. It's just a vehicle. So it's ironic that it would even become a political statement, but nonetheless it is. [Editor’s note: Taylor was arrested and pleaded guilty to conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding in the January 6 attack on the Capitol. He was later pardoned by President Trump.]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:orfukbskqif6bctt3kjxvbsf/bafkreihijlg5orcpr3unv4vrawx3hemqo6tkkuwpkswzbepr7ytucayu7u)

Got my steam frame so ofc one of the first things I did was get nix setup on it. The core of getting nix installed mostly just worked due to the work the official installer did for the steam deck, I had to do some work to make home manager work nicely. I made a blog covering it
