    For people who have not watched it, but don’t want spoilers, here’s a spoiler-free version of the text in the spoilers:

    No 'The Good Place' spoilers here

    (paraphrased) Being a good person is hard because something that might seem good will always have unintended side effects.

    (quoted from OP, with spoilers or info related to the show removed) “e.g. You buy flowers for you mom on her birthday. Nice gesture and surely going to make you a good person, right? Wrong! It’s actually bad, because you ordered them from a website owned by an evil corp, and that evil corp did a lot of evil things with your money, the delivery driver’s van caused a lot of pollution, etc. Ordering them from the local shop wouldn’t have been any better since they don’t source them locally. Etc and etc.”

      • nixos-rebuild ...: Refreshes stamina, +5 health to the user. If used incorrectly, will cause a random negative effect, but never fatal. Requires waiting for 15 seconds, unless Nix Flakes were recently used, then it requires at least 2 hours of waiting.
