    Windows certainly doesnt have uniformity.

    Where are my game saves located?

    Are they in my hidden AppData folder? If so, which of the three subdirectories does it live?

    If not there, then surly it’s in the Saved Games folder.

    Nope. It must be in My Documents.

    Shit… Maybe in the Program Files?

    For fuck sake, where is it?!

    Web browser > search > pcgamingwiki (great resource BTW), save game location. AH-HA! IT’S IN… My Documents?

    I just checked there! (Half an hour passes)

    Found it! Now why the FUCK does Windows partition the local user directory from the OneDrive user directory?!

    Windows is a FUCKING mess. Once you get used to Linux, you’ll understand the worst thing is Mozilla thinks it’s okay to put its config file one directory up from where it should be.

    I’m still a Linux noob all things considered, and I’ve been using NixOS for six months or more.

    It is HARD, but I see the true value of it. I will never need to reinstall Linux because I broke it, that’s simply impossible.

    If I ever need to migrate my system, it’s all backed up to github. With a single

    Bash update.sh
    

    every single .config file backed up, system upgraded, all packages updated.

    I just love Nix, it’s the perfect OS for me.

    Now I just need to learn how to use flakes…

    Sidebar: I’ve never asked before, but maybe someone can help me out. If I install a flake of an application, am I supposed to add it to the existing flake, or can I modulate flakes?

    I’ve noticed when installing the nixvim flake it generates a new flake and it runs when I issue the

    nix run ~/.dotfiles/nixvim/flake.nix
    

    command, but I don’t want to have to run that command every time. I feel like making a fish abbreviation isn’t the correct way of doing this.
