 ** So, where is this website of yours located?
 https://ret2pop.nullring.xyz, it is the road to enlightenment.
 
+* Wait, so where are your dotfiles?
+To use my dotfiles, clone this repository:
+#+begin_src bash
+git clone https://github.com/ret2pop/ret2pop-website.git ~/org/website
+#+end_src
+and install my ~configuration.nix~ file. The org files /are/ the dotfiles, or
+at least in the case of emacs.
+
+To use my full system, you also need to have a ~password-store~ from the ~pass~
+password manager in its standard location with an entry called ~Mail~, and you need
+to clone my [[https://github.com/ret2pop/wallpapers.git][wallpapers]] repository. Therefore, in full, my configuration can be fully
+installed like so:
+#+begin_src bash
+  # Run this in root, and after copying the configuration.nix file and running nixos-rebuild switch.
+  # You must also change the gpg key used for git and pass. Make sure
+  # you've installed your gpg keys and your ssh keys before this.
+  # Install your music to ~/music. Of course, also change your location
+  # of stuff like your mail server.
+  su preston # if you change your username, change this too
+  cd ~
+  mkdir ~/org
+  # if you want to make this process deterministic, clone a particular commit
+  git clone https://github.com/ret2pop/ret2pop-website.git ~/org/website
+  git clone https://github.com/ret2pop/wallpapers.git
+  # replace this with your password-store
+  git clone git@nullring.xyz:/var/www/password_store.git ~/.password-store/
+  mbsync prestonpan # change this with your own name in the nix config and here
+  # TODO: mu init/index
+  mpc add /
+
+  # Afterwards, open firefox, enable all the plugins that are already installed,
+  # and install the catppuccin firefox theme. For vencord, use the catppuccin
+  # betterdiscord theme; open emacs and run pdf-tools-install, nerd-icons-install-fonts,
+  # and all-the-icons-install-fonts. These things are not completely set up for you but
+  # the good news is that the vast majority of the functionality is included.
+
+#+end_src
+Without the comments, it is a 10 line program that installs everything needed to run my system,
+and configures those programs as well!
