+# FLAKE FEEDBACK:
+# - if flake inputs are meant to be human-readable, a human should be able to easily track them down given the URL.
+#   - this is not the case with registry URLs, like `nixpkgs/nixos-22.11`.
+#   - this is marginally the case with schemes like `github:nixos/nixpkgs`.
+#   - given the *existing* `git+https://` scheme, i propose expressing github URLs similarly:
+#     - `github+https://github.com/nixos/nixpkgs/tree/nixos-22.11`
+#     - this would allow for the same optimizations as today's `github:nixos/nixpkgs`, but without obscuring the source.
+#       a code reader could view the source being referenced simply by clicking the https:// portion of that URI.
+# - need some way to apply local patches to inputs.

+# - `screen /dev/ttyUSB2 115200`
+#   - `AT+QGPSCFG="nmeasrc",1`
+#   - `AT+QGPS=1`
+# this process is automated by my `eg25-control` program and services (`eg25-control-powered`, `eg25-control-gps`)
+# - see the `modules/` directory further up this repository.
+#
+# now, something like `gpsd` can directly read from /dev/ttyUSB1,
+# or geoclue can query the GPS directly through modem-manager
+#
+# initial GPS fix can take 15+ minutes.
+# meanwhile, services like eg25-manager or eg25-control-freshen-agps can speed this up by uploading assisted GPS data to the modem.
+#
+# support/help:
+# - geoclue, gnome-maps
+#   - irc: #gnome-maps on irc.gimp.org
+#   - Matrix: #gnome-maps:gnome.org  (unclear if bridged to IRC)

+# programs to pair this with:
+# - `satellite-gtk`: <https://codeberg.org/tpikonen/satellite>
+#   - shows/tracks which satellites the GPS is connected to; useful to understand fix characteristics
+# - `gnome-maps`: uses geoclue, has route planning
+# - `mepo`: uses gpsd, minimalist, flaky, and buttons are kinda hard to activate on mobile
+# - puremaps?
+# - osmin?
+#
+# known/outstanding bugs:
+# - `systemctl start eg25-control-gps` can the hang the whole system (2023/10/06)

+#   - best guess is modem draws so much power at launch that other parts of the system see undervoltage
