 Randy Eckenrode | Cross to Linux should work. | 17:26:45 |
 denommus | I think even if I set up a Linux VM I'll need to crosscompile, because the VM would be aarch64 as well, since I'm on a M3 | 17:27:41 |
| denommus | are my chances better on Linux anyway? | 17:27:51 |
 K900 | I think you can set up an x86_64 VM with Rosetta something something | 17:28:06 |
| K900 | But I am not an Apple user | 17:28:13 |
 samasaur | you can set up an aarch64 VM and pass thru Rosetta into it for faster emulation of x86_64, yes | 17:28:45 |
| samasaur | e.g. https://github.com/cpick/nix-rosetta-builder | 17:29:06 |
| denommus | that looks like what I need, I'll test it, thanks | 17:29:43 |
 antifuchs | this and the virby vm repo do similar things, I've been using virby recently because it rebuilds cleaner | 21:31:18 |

 Austin Horstman | Ihar Hrachyshka: ah yeah, building is a lot faster when i don't limit my cores lol. just had to rebuild firefox-devedition-unwrapped and it only took 45 min on my laptop now | 16:36:58 |
 Sarah Clark | Redacted or Malformed Event | 17:44:59 |
| Sarah Clark | I set the core limit to exclude the efficiency cores and it builds faster now than before. | 19:19:38 |

 debtquity | is there anything worth it in tahoe? I reviewed the marketing for it and just seems like a crappy ui update | 20:08:16 |
| debtquity | but maybe there are hidden gems? | 20:08:26 |
 Katalin 🔪 | launchpad is gone 🦀 | 21:04:55 |
| Katalin 🔪 | otherwise, no, can't think of anything | 21:05:00 |

| Randy Eckenrode | Git appears to broken on Darwin on staging. | 02:56:43 |
| debtquity | you mean this on staging-next?

| Randy Eckenrode | I ran into it today rebasing my Swift branch on staging. | 04:16:53 |

 mall0c | Thinking of setting up NixOS in VM on macOS host. Is the lack of OpenGL support going to result in awful performance? Or is it tolerable?
Been itching to use Niri + Cosmic for a minute. | 17:27:49 |
|  novedevo changed their display name from Devon to novedevo. | 18:42:39 |
| novedevo set a profile picture. | 18:43:43 |
 Ihar Hrachyshka | i think if you want acceleration, something like krunkit / libkrun could give you that but I am not aware of ready recipes to run nixos through it. | 19:25:48 |
 g5pw | I would definitely wait for the next minor bump, IIRC there will be a performance/bugfix release | 22:12:17 |
