I created a NixOS Install script for Proxmox
For quite a while, I've wanted to try out hosting my services in NixOS LXCs, but it did not seem like there were any definitive one-stop-shop scripts such as the ones on Proxmox Helper Scripts. So, I waited for some clever cookie to make one, because surely this was not something just I was interested in.
But the cookie never appeared, and after a while of waiting, I decided that maybe I should try it myself! A few nights of chicken scratch bash later, and I've got a decent little script to boot up and configure a NixOS 24.11 LXC, with a configuration.nix file!
Important disclaimer though, this script is still pretty early in development. While it does boot and set up an LXC, there is very little error handling, and don't get me started on the UX. I just thought I'd share, and maybe get some suggestions from others.

Judge temporarily blocks Trump's firing of Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook
The ruling means Cook will remain on the board of the central bank until her case is heard at length.
A federal judge on Tuesday granted a temporary restraining order blocking President Donald Trump’s firing of Federal Reserve governor Lisa Cook for now.
The ruling means Cook will remain on the board of the central bank until her case is heard at length. She is allowed to continue carrying out her work during that time.
In granting the order, U.S. District Judge Jia Cobb said that "the Court will enter an injunction directing [Fed Chair Jerome] Powell and the Board of Governors to allow Cook to continue to operate as a member of the Board for the pendency of this litigation."

Israel has already attacked at least five other countries in the region over the past two years, enjoying relative impunity as it lashes out against all of its neighbors.
I agree - the message is clear. The only countries that prevents peace in Middle East are Israel and US.
