From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine. Your kind cling to your flesh, as though it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass you call a temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortal… Even in death I serve the Omnissiah.







You can just do it in parts though?
If you have a flake.lock you can update it, start rebuilding (nixos-rebuild boot) and if it’s not done before shutdown you can just run that same command after the next boot and it will continue where it left of (minus a few packages it has to rebuild again).
My pc always updates to the latest lock whenever it is running, when I update my Nixos repository my pc will eventually follow without doing anything. The only thing to watch out for is changed configurations or build errors but for that you just have to check the logs every once in a while or set up some way to be notified of the failing rebuild command.
