I'm not entirely convinced that this engine will ever work but there is only one way to know for sure.

Very excited to see that this engine will get its chance to prove itself.

How well NixOS fits your purpose really depends on what you want to do with the OS. If you're just going run a bunch of docker containers, you could manage them via Nix but its a little cumbersome.

Where NixOS really shines for small servers are the so called NixOS Options. They allow you to install tons of services on bare metal but manage all the configuration for you. E.g. open the correct firewalls ports, run a dedicated DB or cache, etc. and all those simply require you to enable them with an ... = true;.

Smaller projects might not have a NixOS Option available and some options are more and/or easier configurable than others, but if you're running just a few common services you could feasibly manage your whole server with just one native config file and no docker shenanigans.

I'd recommend checking what's available under the link above. If you wanna go the container route instead, you have the option of just using docker non-declaratively as on every other distro (but then you lose some of the benefits NixOS gives you), or you can declaratively have NixOS manage all the docker containers. There are a few ways to do and manage this so some further research will be required.

I know this is a meme but would that actually help a rocket engine?

They do water injection on some bomber engines and the harrier jump jet, which allows them to run even more fuel through the engine(s).

On a rocket engine this would only make sense inside the combustion chamber, not the nozzle?

Does flash boiling water in the nozzle add enough pressure to overcome the pressure reduction from cooling down the exhaust gasses?

Not an expert. This has been done quite successfully for space applications. Granted they are only required to roll out once but they have to do so with near perfect reliability. There are quite a few makes and models but I'll reference the ones currently mounted on the ISS (ROSA made by Redwire) because you've probably seen pictures of them.

Their patent states that they use polymeric sheets or fiberglass meshes as a backing material.

Here they are in their packed up state:

And unpacked (the brownish "smaller" panels on the right, note that they are still longer than entire human modules):

Then helmfile might be worth checking out

Mir ist immer ein Niederschlagsgraph wichtig.

Die open-meteo Modelle sind für meine Planung für die nächsten paar Tage zuverlässig genug. Die benutzen meines Wissens nach Europaweite Modelle, sollten also auch grenzübergreifend vergleichbar gut funktionieren.

Es gibt ne Menge Open-Source Wetter Apps im F-Droid store die auf open-meteo zurückgreifen, zB:

Love the Sendy Club Camaro. The aero-hood design is such a great combination of form and function.

again.

On a serious note: space is hard and I wish them the best of luck for their next attempt.

You dont need to manually handle the WG config files. This isn't really an issue when it's just you and your two devices, but once you start supporting more people, like non-technical family members, this gets really annoying really quickly.

Tailscale (and headscale) just require you to log in, which even those family members can manage and then does the rest for you. They also support SSO in which case you wouldn't even have to create new accounts.

The steam page has a demo that features the full game but has saving disabled.

Highly recommend taking that for a quick ring-dive.

Thanks for that handy search result link.

Really makes me want to play Rings of Saturn again :)
