Do we prefer Ansible over Terraform?

NixOS docs themselves are a tad lax, but it will get better.

Learning nix itself is also important:

Just this morning I was having issues with a wacky dual-boot install with NixOS and Windows sharing an EFI partition, and quite interestingly ChatGPT and I were able to troubleshoot the process and get it resolved in under half and hour. I was really impressed by the specific configurations it was giving me for my /etc/nixos/configuration.nix , so that is also another resource you may consider leaning on when you run into walls in other documentation sources.

I can't give too much specifics due to IP and company infosec but was having issues with network drives

I'm required to use CentOS for work and it would be an understatement to say how frustrating it is to use for me. So many packages are missing / old, and some packages just break. There have also been wild bugs which just kernel panic the whole OS. I'd steer clear.

If you're on Kinoite, can't you just enable Plasma 6 if you really need it?
