Powerlevel10k comes with dozens of built-in high quality segments. When you run `p10k configure`
and choose any style except Pure, most of these segments get enabled by default. Some must be
manually enabled by opening `~/.p10k.zsh` and uncommenting them. You can enable as many segments as
you like. It won't slow down your prompt or Zsh startup.
