I've used system76-power on two different Asus laptops and it works on both. Battery life is much better for me than using TLP. For NixOs, you can use hardware.system76.enableAll = true (which is all their firmware) in configuration.nix. Then, for system76-power, you can create a shell script that runs "system76-power profile battery" (for battery saving mode). As the video states, you have to disable gnome power profiles (power-profiles-daemon.enable = false) for system76-power's profiles to work. You do lose Gnome quick setting integration, but the power savings are worth it.
I'd used arch linux for quite a whil and wanted to try nixos but don't know where to start and how to. I want to install nixos with just base install and to start configuring hyprland from there. can you make a video for that?I am new subscriber btw, keep it up mah bro
I’m hoping to get around to making a full install guide at some point with a fresh from start hyprland configuration on flakes and all that fancy stuff.
nixos is sooooo good. it has made my life easier as a linux noob
youre videos r great, u should upload more frequently, especially nixos content
Was curious to get your opinion on Auto-cpufreq vs the solution that you have proposed which seems to be using tlp. Thanks for the video btw
Are you on a Thinkpad T14? Because I'm using a P14s AMD and want to switch to NixOS soon
Yes I am using a T14
Thank you for the video!! Does this work for non-system76 laptops? Is it always better than the alternative?

Nano! Wow, I don't always see many nano users, or at least ones that use it on purpose.
For quick edits it’s fine
no waaaaaaaaaaaaaay
It is better not to perform these experiments if a Gnome is used.
