Because of recent events, I've been thinking someone should make an s6 based replacement for nixos.

It turns out, it almost exists:

"Almost", because this project focuses on routers.

Being an account of the victories, failures, twists, turns, and blind alleys on the path to implementing Liminix, a Nix-based system for configuring consumer wifi routers.

So for #artix with s6 init, I have to install the service with an -s6 prefix, do touch /etc/s6/adminsv/default/contents.d/<service_name> then s6-db-reload to enable a service. To temporarily start/stop a service, I just do s6-rc -u/-d change <service_name>. Alright, alright. Gotcha

To disable the service, just remove the touched file. Alright, gotcha, bear. Thansk
