Watching CSPAN is weird now. It used to be more boring but some the more recent ones have felt I was watching a behind the scenes show where each person was saying things so perfectly crafted for sound bites they seem incongruent with what someone else would say.

There also, to be honest, been a concerted effort to GNU because they represt libre software as a movement for liberty for users as compared to the open source software movement which gets coopted by corporations WAY more.

Maybe its the number of men in the boat number of dandies in a macaroni

Attempts at adversial ai tatoo, face masks and clothing have been done before. Basically exploiting the model not having a deeper understanding of the world so you can trick it with specific visual artifacts.

Irubn Bluefin which is a downstream of Fedora built to be more Dev focused and "cloud native". Desktops apps are flatpak first, my terminal just opens distrobox containers, system CLI tools I get from nixpkgs, services i run on a k3s service on it, and I have use vscodiunm with gitpods to support devcontainers hosted on the k3s cluster. I sometimes pxeboot a raspberry pi or another laptop or a server from my openwrt router to add compute to the cluster if I need it.

Been tinkering with, well, Tinkerbell to do the pxe booting from the k3s cluster but I may go back to Metal3 so I can just used the servers BMCs and do the extra work to config the pxe boot from there.

I really want to get it too full distributed desktop OS at some point, either using moonlight or some real systems work with RDMAoCE and tricking the processes into thinking they are on the same system. That one feel very RnD though.

I had the same issue of liking the UX of Linux admin too much to really use nix fully for system administration. I will say now being forced to work with an MacBook I decided now was when to start that journey. I like it, its been very clean over all but I feel like I am very much "developing" my system instead of administratering it, if that makes any sense.

What system are using to switch between images?

Check out guix or nixpkgs too, very good alts if flatpak or distro pkg manager doesn't have it. Snap's store is proprietary.

How does it game for you so far?!

Seems to be behind an experimental flag at the moment but making great progress.

I was training in IT networking but my first job was desktop systems. I was supposed to be trained but instead I spent months just being assumed I knew how to do anything.

I remember being so disappointed in "plug in hybrids" when I saw the range on electric they had. For me my work commute I'd almost get noth8ng from the electric side of.

Had two moments where me and room mates were out of work during covid and got to post pone my mortgage for the year. Then when it came to pay they offered a refinance deal that took 3% off my loan.

I like to think of myself as a forward planning oppertunist, so a lot of my good fortune is hardworking and foresight. That was shear fucking luck on my part.

My thoughts were sandboxing, so run it in a container with only predefined hooks out. That way you know what parts of the system a theme is wanting to change or access (think flatpak).

I do like the use of subset languages to reduce attack surfaces (eBPF comes to mind as an example definitely not a solution to here those lol).

Oh cool! I'll have do some digging to see how skohub compares to wiki data!

In terms of writing both Owlcat and Larian are both exceptional IMHO. They both have made games that are just massive in scope IMHO. Obviously Larians technical polish on BG3 is also world class, and I hope that some of those pieces can trickle down to more devs.

I'm still disappointed that stadia didn't work out in some ways. Imagine if they were working more like valve improving community tools culminating in the basis for their cloud offering.

No that's a youtubers channel name.

Huh I interpreted it as "everything involved with deployment" so connecting services, scripts, parts the OS that touch it, and an configurations.

I guess that is the ambiguity you mentioned

Market security maybe What's next im not allowed to read the EULA because i may come up with nefarious ways to still use the service?
