I certainly see the appeal of an LLM system with full context and tool use (OpenClaw), but the lethal trifecta puts me off deploying it. I do like the idea of an agent with a heartbeat though. A bunch of nice cron-style workflows can be built on top.

GIMP is huge tool that I certainly haven't mastered, but it's so useful to have around. I used it this week to convert images from obscure formats to common ones. It's a great swiss army knife and runs everywhere.

The most common selling point I hear for Nix is having a list of all the packages you need. On a traditional Linux distro, I just install things and forget about them. A curated, commented list would certainly be handy when I have a new system.
