ok here we ggo. #NixOS ZFS root on the backup NAS

ok I've got a live image, /run/current-system/sw appears to be "ok I suppose we can sort of have a standard Unix-looking filesystem but not really"

and now I get to figure out how the fuck to do NixOS root on ZFS

update: success! NixOS is now running on Yttrium. Is there a declarative way to tell my zpool to expand to the other drives in my machine, or do I do that th old way?

update: NFS shared to my primary NAS, fwupd installed, nfs server running, this is actually working

I feel like the Linux community really fucked up in not embracing things like secure boot and mandatory disk encryption with TPM2 binding after the lies spread by anti-UEFI, anti-Secureboot people born out of misunderstandings about Windows 8 requirements

@freya we're in favor of that sort of thing, yeah, though it's .... TPM binding is nice but it's an after-the-fact detection system, which, while still genuinely helpful, is less comforting for us with an activist threat model than it would be to a corporation for which everything comes down to financial loss and can be averaged out and forgotten
