The people in this community hope for a world where an individual's informational footprints—everything from an opinion on abortion to the medical record of an actual abortion—can be traced only if the individual involved chooses to reveal them; a world where coherent messages shoot around the globe by network and microwave, but intruders and feds trying to pluck them out of the vapor find only gibberish; a world where the tools of prying are transformed into the instruments of privacy. There is only one way this vision will materialize, and that is by widespread use of cryptography. Is this technologically possible? Definitely. The obstacles are political—some of the most powerful forces in government are devoted to the control of these tools. In short, there is a war going on between those who would liberate crypto and those who would suppress it. The seemingly innocuous bunch strewn around this community represents the vanguard of the pro-crypto forces. Though the battleground seems remote, the stakes are not: The outcome of this struggle may determine the amount of freedom our society will grant us in the 21st century. To the Cypherpunks, freedom is an issue worth some risk.

Features

UnixPorn at its core

PwNixOS places a strong emphasis on delivering a top-notch graphical experience by providing a visually appealing and productivity-focused interface.

Hacking Tools

PwNixOS offers a wide array of tools and utilities out of the box to support your hacking endeavors. From advanced network analysis and penetration testing tools to powerful scripting languages and development environments, PwNixOS equips you with the necessary arsenal to explore and manipulate computer systems to your heart's content.

Package Management with Nix

One of the standout features of NixOS is its unique package management system called Nix. With Nix, you can easily install, update, and manage software packages on your system. What makes Nix special is its ability to provide isolated and reproducible environments for each package, ensuring that software installations do not interfere with one another. This allows for painless experimentation and easy rollback to previous configurations.

Declarative Configuration

NixOS follows a declarative approach to system configuration. Instead of making changes directly to the system, you define the desired state of your system in a configuration file or flake (like this one). This configuration specifies all the packages, services, and settings you want, providing a clear and reproducible blueprint for your system. This declarative nature simplifies system administration, enables easy replication of configurations across multiple machines, and facilitates version control of your system setup.

Custom packages

This flake has custom hacking tools that are uploaded to the NUR. The purpose of these tools is to fill in the gaps that exist today in the official repositories and create a full arsenal of tools, with well-known tools such as BloodHound and lesser-known tools such as psudohash.
