davidak | a nixos distribution could just be a profile inside nixpkgs that people can use as a starting point. what you get using the graphical installer is similar. you can just select the desktop instead of us having to maintain multiple distributions like Ubuntu | 16:27:24 |
Albert | ^ Why I adore NixOS so much | 16:28:50 |
Albert | All my machines are in a single flake.
Some run KDE, some run Hyprland, some have containers and run Docker, others run HAProxy and Wireguard. | 16:29:27 |
Albert | It's great. All from one flake! | 16:29:39 |
davidak | What do you all think about the optimizations of CachyOS, especially the BORE Scheduler and LTO kernel? Could we use that on NixOS? | 16:36:01 |
K900 | Do you have evidence that it actually helps anything? | 16:36:39 |
davidak | no, but i'm interested | 16:37:02 |
K900 | Well I'll start being interested when there's any evidence it actually helps anything | 16:37:41 |
davidak | i used it for some days while the game i wanted to play crashed on nixos. but then it broke and did not boot anymore | 16:37:53 |
davidak | what metric would you care about? a higher frame rate would be obvious, but i think a more stable frame time would be most valuable for a better experience | 16:42:20 |
K900 | Any metric | 16:44:10 |
K900 | That is reasonably useful | 16:44:14 |
Marie | 0001-asus.patch is my favorite feature of cachyos | 16:44:54 |
Linux DADDY | Can you use this in nixos? | 16:52:31 |
