15:47 <leonardp> is there an easy way to modify the "config.txt" on a rpi3 using NixOS?

15:48 <leonardp> unless i did something very wrong 'boot.loader.raspberryPi.firmwareConfig' didn't work for me -.-

19:40 <leonardp> ....obviously i did something very wrong (commented out an import...)

19:56 <zhaofeng> Any affordable aarch64 machine with reasonable performance for native builds?

19:56 <zhaofeng> Pinebook Pro/RK3399 isn't fast enough (also overheats during sustained load), and qemu emulation is sluggish

19:57 <zhaofeng> I'm kind of interested in what kind of hardware the community build box has

19:58 <samueldr> zhaofeng: the sad reality is that there's almost nothing "between" actual expensive server hardware and SBCs

19:58 superherointj has joined #nixos-aarch64

19:58 <samueldr> basically the market of in-betweens is composed of: https://www.solid-run.com/arm-servers-networking-platforms/honeycomb-workstation/

19:59 <samueldr> that is, those "made" for Linux

19:59 <samueldr> if we include M1, M1 is at the lower-end still, but probably good, but expensive and not supported really yet

20:00 <hexa-> zhaofeng: https://discourse.nixos.org/t/new-aarch64-and-armv7l-linux-omg-builders/1010

20:00 <samueldr> I don't remember *which* server is running the community build box, but it's a price of "ask for a quote"

20:00 <zhaofeng> Well, I'm thinking about buying an M1 Mac expressly to build aarch64 stuff inside a VM (as Asahi Linux lacks drivers to be actually usable(

20:01 <samueldr> I wonder how the M1 fares against the honeycomb

20:01 <zhaofeng> hexa-: Oh wow, didn't know is Packet. It's pretty expensive (and now we don't even know the pricing after the Equinix acquisition)

20:02 <zhaofeng> *it's

20:03 <samueldr> IIRC the actual community build box is a type of servers that was never available publicly either

20:03 <samueldr> (might be another machine type though)

20:03 <samueldr> right, it was another machine

20:06 <zhaofeng> Debian seems to have a fleet of aarch64 machines, but not sure what kind of hardware they use

20:06 <zhaofeng> https://db.debian.org/machines.cgi

20:07 <hexa-> applied micro cpus

20:07 <hexa-> https://en.wikichip.org/wiki/apm/x-gene

20:10 <samueldr> most of the fleets you'll see will be "if you have to ask" kind of pricing

20:10 <samueldr> and many not even available for purchase anymore

20:10 <samueldr> (from the vendors)

20:11 <samueldr> there really is no in-between, workstation type classes still and yet

20:11 <samueldr> (excluding the honeycomb)

20:15 <zhaofeng_ircclou> :(

20:15 <samueldr> yes

20:15 <samueldr> my at-home "trusted" build machine is an rk3399 SBC with an NVMe SSD

20:15 <samueldr> it is not as limited as the pinebook pro in these situations

20:16 <samueldr> though still not as fast as I'd like

20:19 <zhaofeng> Well, I might look into buying a couple of RK3399 SBCs after all
