It’s peculiar that they named it “playNixOS” and subsequently chose a non-Nix-based foundation. In my opinion, a custom distribution is an ideal platform to demonstrate the capabilities and flexibility of Nix. It is likely that they could have completed the project in half the time… not to mention how much easier it would be to update it.
“Nix” in this context likely comes from Unix, the operating system that GNU/Linux sought to replace. Unix still has cultural significance within the Linux community, so I think it’s a much more likely explanation than naming it after Nix/NixOS.
Running the CPU and GPU at ~75% and 98% on Cyberpunk 2077 and keeping it at 65ºC is quite a feat, ngl
neat!
Ha! What I came to say - neat!
I like these console/PCs that people are coming up with. Its a somewhat more repairable/open option for those that would like something that can be hacked away at.
Right. For me it’s the sheer ingenuity of one person to put something cool like that together is just fascinating.
Being 9060xt based is the main bonus over the Steam Machine. It’s a good bump over the 7600
