Emacs consuming CPU in end-less loop: what are my options?
You could install Nix or Guix as an additional package manager if you want to give a newer version of Emacs a go before upgrading your system. With Guix you might want to add this channel (for native compilation).

How do I choose the .desktop file used for exwm?
I am using the emacs-native-comp branch from flatwhatson's guix-channel. But the exwm package from guix is loading emacs 27. I've been reading through the manual in the Desktop Services section but can't quite make out how to tell guix to use emacs-native-comp instead of emacs 27 when launching exwm.

After 30 Years, Linux Finally Hits 3% Market Share
I use the nonguix channel for non-free stuff https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix. It has the mainline linux kernel (instead of the free linux-libre), proprietary drivers and a bunch of other proprietary stuff.

Newbie needs some answers about making a decision about migrating to Gnu Guix Tool
Guix has these things called "channels" containing package definitions. They're actually just git repositories. nonguix was made to have nonfree stuff. It has a lot of stuff including the mainline linux kernel.

Other than flatpak, snap, or app image, what is your favorite stand alone package manager?
https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix you can use non free software if you need to. But the project itself is a gnu project and as such should not encourage users to use non free software.

Why all the NixOS hype? Did we all forget about Guix?
I think Guix approach is good, community helps with open-source packages, some third-party manages the non-free channels. And they are as easy to use
https://gitlab.com/nonguix/nonguix
There are flatpacks, snaps, appimages, PPAs, channels... why would you except a linux distro maintainer to work for free for a billion dollar company? Testing and maintain their software

Help evaluating GUIX for an embedded system use case
My background consists of using/developing Guix, openSUSE/SUSE as well of OBS. I'm a co-maintainer at nonguix, where we provide non-free software which is not allowed at upstream Guix. We even run our own little build service, called Cuirass. This softwore is developed mostly by https://www.reddit.com/user/mothacehe/ :)

transactional supremacy
Even GNU Guix System (which is a fully libre, FSF approved distro) can be used to install non-free packages. All you have to do is add the nonguix repository.
