Okay, yeah. That’s exactly what I was afraid of, and thanks for telling me. It’s as literally dystopian as I was had assumed. Great.
I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it.

I’m quite a bit older than you think and even more naïve, I promise.
Are you afraid of becoming addicted? Or just that they won’t give you pills when you need them?
Kinda both, although more so the latter, tbh.
My dad uses NixOS. My dad knows precisely nothing about computers; just ask him, he’ll tell you. I figure, since he’s gonna call me for free tech support no matter what operating system he has, anyway, I might as well make everything as reproducible as possible for my own sake. I tried putting Debian testing on his computer, and honestly, that was actually pretty good except that I had to update it for him at least once a week in order to keep everything running smoothly, lol.
Yes; the difference with NixOS is that you can go way longer than you ever should without updating it, and then do a full system upgrade, and then turn around and walk away without ever having to worry about anything breaking.
