For anyone that is interested in Guix System ZFS support, here's implementation. Right now it's usable but isn't ready for merging into Guix.

Let me know if there's bug in the implementation if you manage to have a try. It's much welcomed if you can also help with TODOs listed in the PR.

I have deployed it on my systems and I'll update my dotfiles for this PR soon(currently a different implementation is used by the published configurations), so there're example configurations you can view.

WIP: Support ZFS in Guix System

This series brings ZFS support into Guix System, either automatically configured when ZFS datasets are declared in OS file-systems, or manually via `zfs-service-type` otherwise. ZFS native encryption is not considered. I'm not interested due to its known reliability issues, but the support shou...

Has anyone used #glamoroustoolkit?
it seems to promise extensibility and making contextual tools and views explicitly as long as you learn pharo smalltalk. Nothing can replace #emacs cause of its versatility and interoperability but this seems to have a really nice graphics stack. it could fill that gap in terms of extensible software. I can even see the possibility of it being more approachable to regular people who you may wanna share the tools/views with. The possibility of making custom interactive tools easily is tempting, even if you need to be inside smalltalk entirely to have it

The best resources to learn Blender from are still the Blender manual, but that's a bit dry as most manuals are and videos are often better, and so for the rest the Blender Studio folks. Plus, you're supporting free culture works in the process! https://studio.blender.org/ has some resources free, and you can pay to get access to the rest, but they're all under CC BY, which is pretty great.

The second best are tons of shy and excited people on YouTube who want to show you a few tips.

Some of my favorites:

- Harry Blends
- Sophie Jantak
- Deduze
- Pepe School Land, especially the Grease Pencil Random Tips and Tricks series (name is unrelated to the popularity of a certain frog)

Getting started with Grease Pencil first is often a good idea, because 2d is a gentler introduction for many people, but it also eases you into many of the 3d concepts.

Just discovered “Principia Softwarica”:
https://principia-softwarica.org/

It’s inspiring both as a piece of work—one person learning and documenting an entire OS code base over several years!—and as a demonstration of what designing software with consistency, clarity, and minimalism in mind can produce.

went out with my full-spectrum converted camera and my 550nm long-pass filter again! I just love the Aerochrome look, so fluffy

i wrote a rust microkernel with a federation userspace layer where clusters of trusted machines quietly lend each other idle resources inspired by gift economics.

lend your spare capacity, earn the right to borrow. machines find each other automatically on the same network, bond by consent and shared keys, stay fully independent.

a solar machine lends freely at noon and pulls back at dusk. computation drifts toward wherever the cleanest cheapest energy is.

Booted outline-minor-mode from my #Emacs configuration! Don't get me wrong, I like the outline navigation commands, but you don't need outline-minor-mode 's terrible key bindings to invoke them! I've decided to invoke them through Embark now, I'll take C-. n over C-c @ C-n any day of the week. (Well, except in #OrgMode buffers where I'd never give up on speed keys!) Another good options is jdtsmith's outli package, which provides an Org speed-key–style experience to all buffers with outlines.

Tldr: GUI for #guix package management, and system updates; For the longest time, I wanted to have a GUI to handle packages and updates on GUIX because anything CLI is just too much for the average person; Today I'm releasing the first version https://github.com/franzos/guix-rs. It's still a little rough around the edges, but quite fast.
There's no support for guix home; This is primarily for users, that install packages straight to their profile.
