  • I think Nixos and a nas would for your need.

    This is what I’m doing, I have two laptop, one for work at my office and one at home for work/hobbies.

    I have a nixos config synced on github with all my of is configuration, package list extensions …Some of the config is specific to each laptop like the part related to the hardware and steam, games stuff only on my home computer. The rest is the config is shared and all my files synced on my NAS.

    So whenever I change something on one the change is reflected in the other. I really enjoy this setup and I’m thinking of adding my server in it too.





  • Even for very long distances (where flying is almost mandatory unless you are ready to spend weeks traveling) trains make things easier.

    For example I’m living in a small village in the south east of France and I will be traveling to the carribean in summer for family, I will be walking to the train station is my village to take the train, 2 changes later I will be in London from where I’ll take the plane to cross the Atlantic.

    Same thing on the way back but with a night train.

    This one hurt a bit too close to home.

    In high school and college I did believe that in my lifetime humanity would really start space exploration and colonization.

    I studied engineering and did everything I could to contribute to this great advancement of humanity. I got a double master degree in aerospace manufacturing, specialized in the machining of exotic alloys used in aerospace, worked on rocket engines, developed new machining techniques that unlocked new possibilities for aircraft engines performances and was working my way up to be one of the few people in Europe highly specialized on machining technique for these alloys used in aerospace.

    Then in 2016 I read more and more about “Collapse”, more specifically the collapse of our thermo industrial civilization. We are not going to colonize space, we will be lucky if most of humanity does not die in the coming century.

    So rather than contributing to the future of humanity with my work I was contributing to worsen the condition of life on earth by accelerating climate change and the uses of resources.

    I had a bit of an existential crisis at this point.
