laughs in NixOS

it's remarkable to me that NixOS manages to run so well despite breaking the FHS so thoroughly. and not just in superficial ways like not calling it /bin, I mean forsaking dynamic linking (hence /var/lib and /usr/lib), keeping man pages, resources and config bundled into the same derivation as the binary sometimes, and occasionally hacking up binary blobs to rewrite rpaths.

on the other hand, there's a place for legacy distros too.
