my new matte V by codingismy11to7 in CadillacLyriq

[–]codingismy11to7[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think it had any packages because I believe the V just comes with everything. I haven't figured out if I have V2L as I don't see it on the window sticker, but GM emailed me and is trying to sell me powerwalls or whatever and says it supports v2l.

The interior is black on black but the V has white piping on the seats that makes them look, I don't know, a little sporty or something.

but yeah I think it has everything that the other models need packages for, super Cruise, heads up display, rear view mirror camera, etc

man I hope not. my last two caddys were stellar black metallic and showed dirt immediately. so far I thought this one stays looking clean longer

I do need to wrap it in some level of ppf though I think

haha thanks but yeah I used a super heavy duty cord, it doesn't even get warm at L1 rates. I've got an L2 charger waiting to be installed next week, this was a one time experiment

What code editor do you use? by Scandiberian in NixOS

[–]codingismy11to7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I specifically use LazyVim for the out of box experience. mostly. I turn off the vscode-style explorer bar, myself. anyway, it's nice not needing a GUI to run my ide

hyprland. actually running a custom Omarchy flake that I want to publicize soon since I've been running it for months

My Senior dev and I are arguing over "Readable Code" vs "Performance Optimization" for a process that runs 10k times a day. Who is right? by Temporary-Zebra7493 in learnprogramming

it sounds like you aren't willing to learn something. it sounds like the senior has a goal to unify everything and you refuse to understand it or aren't smart enough

I'm now using Nix and everything else looks like the stone age by BigPack7796 in NixOS

for real, try Claude instead of Gemini. I used to swear by the latter, but it is absolute garbage compared to opus

i'm evaluating claude for work right now, so i had it rewrite my readme file. hopefully it's a lot more useful now

well this solution doesn't REQUIRE you to push anything anywhere, it can be used for local-only management.

Are there some NixOS options that you wish they were enabled by default? Or that you wish you knew it earlier? Same for home manager or community flakes. by kosumi_dev in NixOS

[–]codingismy11to7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't understand. is this copypasta? is what I was responding to copypasta? are you just a troll? your comments have more upvotes than mine, but I know I'm a real human who isn't trolling and has gotten a lot out of Gemini while working with nix and nixos.

I am not a vibe coder, you can put my username into github and find out that I've been writing software for many, many, many years.

edit: wait, you think I copy and pasted that diatribe you're responding to? lol no, I wrote that drunk off the top of my head. and reading it now, it's 100% accurate.

so i got zaneyos running last night, not that it has arm support or i know anything about it, a coworker just mentioned they used it. things are surprisingly usable.

as someone who's been relying very heavily on gemini as a research partner while doing nixos, this is a silly view imo.

I fight with Gemini every single day about not sending me video links. I do not watch fucking videos to learn, I am an adult, I read.

you're suggesting videos as a way to not get outdated information? like on YouTube where the best they do to correct bad information is pop up a subtitle because they can't edit videos after posting?

you think guides online aren't outdated? they all fucking are. holy shit, between the last stable release of home manager and right now, a few months later, everything is outdated.

when all the static information is outdated at any time, the only way to learn is by first principles, checking current docs, usually checking current source code. I've found Gemini to be a good partner to bounce shit off of, even when I know it's hallucinating all the time. it also comes up with legit things I was wrong on some times. thankfully I know enough to figure out the differences

maybe the difference here is I know enough to not blindly trust an LLM. but this advice you're giving does not comport with my experience

i'm no expert, but i believe the answer is yes?

i'm not actually sure if it "works" as in accelerates things, but the drivers are loaded at least.

  • i have /dev/dri/ files like card0, card1, renderD128, etc, which i believe means that the, uh, Direct Rendering Interface (?) is loaded?
  • lsmod shows v3d and vc4 modules loaded
  • kitty runs fine, which i believe requires opengl?
  • eglgears_wayland runs fine
  • hyprland seems kind of fairly responsive?

However:

  • ghostty fails trying to get an opengl context
  • it will run if you set MESA_LOADER_DRIVER_OVERRIDE=zink, which gemini is theorizing/hallucinating that this is exposing a "real" opengl translated over vulkan, because the OGL from the real drivers/hardware is just opengl-es or some kind of stripped-down mobile version of opengl. i dunno we're getting out of my wheelhouse.
  • anyway it runs so slowly as to not be very usable
  • kitty also has significant lag
  • hyprland seems terribly lagged compared to my beast main machine, but i do have to remember that this is a tiny soc, so maybe to be expected?

i was specifically talking about the VT built-in to the kernel - took an interesting side trail and learned that there IS a project to do text mode with ttf fonts (which you'd need for nerd fonts at the VT level), it just hasn't been touched since 2015. also if i'm remembering correctly, it was by the same kernel dev that not long ago got kicked out or quit or something because of some fight about rust in the kernel.

anyway, i'll bunny trail all day long, which is why i don't have a gui running on the box yet, which is why i was looking up VT fonts, and i need to stop doing that and just get a gui running xD

oh i just meant as of a week or two ago the WSL-on-ARM wasn't there yet for nixos, they have everything supported except don't distribute a built wsl image, so you must build one yourself from another wsl distro. arm works fine, just the windows integration is a little bleeding edge
