That is a key area too. I know that most of the distros are working in that direction[1], and in the case of Fedora, openSUSE or Debian they are reaching high level of reproducibil…

What I do not understand is why not to work with the openSUSE community, or fork from them. But instead use a USA based distro like Fedora. openSUSE has all their tooling based in …

> What if you actually can’t predict the future and climate change is actually good? Is this how rational people react, or is some spiritual response talking from fear? How can be …

The common component here is Microsoft, not the TPM.

> the TPM enables verification of a particular state of your system, i.e., a particular set of binaries and OS configuration That is a bit misleading. The TPM is a passive device, …

It is still under development, but try Keylime[1]. They have also a nice agent written in Rust[2] with low footprint. I write some notes[3] about how to use it in openSUSE MicroOS …

Windows security models and policies are the enemy, not remote attestation (RA). RA is a technology that has its fair use, and can be desired for other systems, like in Linux. With…

Seems that it can convert from Python to Perl: https://beta.openai.com/playground/p/o4qZWSXVz8JMmVaI9j9NMIK...

> But for helping the very poorest advance, I'm not sure it works in practice. I think it does. I studied in the south of Spain (I am Spaniard too), and some of my fellow students …

RSA is very slow for decryption. The general approach is tp use RSA to encrypt / decrypt the key of a symmetric encryption algorithm, that is much faster.

Anyone that needs to be maintained for a long period of time. For example: Firefox. Today Firefox have all the rust deps bundled (similar to cargo bundle). If / when tomorrow the m…

I submitted this entry because IMHO is the first survey, that I am aware of, that is giving some data about the Rust toolchain inside a distribution. I guess that openSUSE can be a…

This is going too far ... https://github.com/Vogtinator/doom-emojis Done with 5 skin tones of the hand wave emoji.

We (openSUSE) are doing this in controlled situations. We have a build system (OBS) that create VMs for us every time that we want to create / update a new package. Those VMs are i…

> Fun times Is still fun! There is Tumbleweed, a full rolling distribution (all packages with its own update cadence, and OBS fully building the dependencies that are impacted). Th…

SUSE bought Rancher in 2020, and that was also in the news.

I wonder if the historians from 100 years ahead, when analyzing this period of time, will not wonder why the society did not react on time for those evident signs of democracy degr…

I think that this is a fair argument. When the mental model is already there, changing it is difficult and the trade-offs needs to be in a very advantage position to justify the ch…

For my laptop and desktop (where I work and watch movies, no gaming so far) I use openSUSE Tumbleweed. A rolling distro that allows me to have the last version of all my software, …

TL;DR: https://www.eqtgroup.com/Investments/Current-Portfolio/suse/ But we are mostly independent now. I.e we choose the directions.

I think that is this a bit unfair for SUSE. We (I am employee here) have a long tradition of innovation and failing in communication. We had OBS, that is some kind of build system …

There is this too: https://docs.saltstack.com/en/latest/ref/modules/all/salt.mo... You can reuse all the playbooks and start scaling with salt.

There is MicroOS from openSUSE: https://en.opensuse.org/Kubic:MicroOS
