+This script is going to call sudo a lot. Normally, it would show you
+exactly what commands it is running and why. However, the script is
+run in  a headless fashion, like this:
+
+  $ curl https://nixos.org/nix/install | sh

+verbose output in the interest of brevity.

 output exactly what it'll do, and why.
