I’m currently trying to set up my old laptop as a travel laptop. My regular laptop is rather heavy (5.5lb + 1.5lb charger because it has trash battery life), so this might be easier to bring to class. It’s gonna run NixOS! I tried to make it autowipe root like my server does, but unfortunately, due to me not wanting to store passwords or even hashed passwords in Git, it’s… difficult, to say the least. I guess I won’t autowipe it, then, but I will still treat the machine as ephemeral, and try to store configs in the Nix files as much as possible.
