I like the idea. Is this possible on Android too?

I came to the same conclusion when I built my NAS. Just Nix for the system, zfs for raid and docker compose for any service I might want to run. https://www.splitbrain.org/blog/2025-08/03-diy_nas_on_nixos

> it’s giving a lecture about the problems you’re pondering in the shower; it’s thinking out loud about the ways in which your project doesn’t work at all.
I'd love to do this. But I have learned that my brain does not work this way. The moment I explain my shower thought project to anyone, I immediately lose all interest in actually building it. I don't know why.
If I want to succeed building a new thing, I can not talk to anyone before I have actually built the first fully working version of it.

All three just this month. Each of them took me several hours, because they're not vibe coded but carefully reviewed and refined until I was reasonably happy with the resulting code. Could I have written them myself? Sure. Would I ever have started without claude? Hell no.

Offtopic: several of the embedded Bluesky posts at the end of the article show "The author of the quoted post has requested their posts not be displayed on external sites." Seems not to phase the PC Gamer "journalists".

I wish there were any SBCs under 10 bucks. Remember the promise of the RPi Zero being 5$? That promise never came true.

Unfortunately it seems not to have any wireless connectivity.
