Info:
nixos-rebuild switch= build the new system configuration (from/etc/nixos/configuration.nixor flakes) and activate it immediately without reboot.- It builds the new system in

- Leaves the old generations available for rollback (
nixos-rebuild switch --rollback).

My most intrusive Linux thought is to symlink
vitoemacs(or vice versa).I will find you, and I will break your fingers.
