They won't build software, they'll let some AI-based software do the execution of their instructions (which is inefficient, opaque, vendor-locked, not reproducible etc.)

If you mean using Incus on Flatcar, there is a PR for adding Incus as systemd-sysext extension. Flatcar inside Incus is a bit more difficult: for Flatcar being a container one can …

With static binaries that is not needed (and you can use OS=_any in the extension release file to mark them compatible). If you want to repackage distro binaries without recompilat…

In https://archive.softwareheritage.org/browse/revision/e446ab7... one can open the patches and then click the "Changes" sub-tab. Stuff like this looks like a perf improvement but …

This might not be complete because this statement "More patches that seem (even in retrospect) to be fine follow." lacks some more backing facts. There were more patches before the…

When socat is around a simple server can also be constructed with it: tee /tmp/server > /dev/null # test: curl -v http://localhost:8000/server

I really think we should have means of spawning wasm components from wasm components. How the runtime runs them should be up to the runtime - it could be directly backed by kernel …

To spot more common problems I recommend: alias shellcheck='shellcheck -o all -e SC2292 -e SC2250'

For regular Linux users you can do: sudo touch /etc/udisks2/tcrypt.conf sudo systemctl restart udisks2 and then any veracrypt volumes can be used in Nautilus or GNOME Disks similar…

Does this finally have UEFI by default?

The next logical step would be to only support wasm programs ;)

gzip uses LZ and Huffman coding and not arithmetic coding with a predictor, so yes, these are not similar.

Specially compression algos that use arithmetic coding with interval weights adjusted based on the prediction of what is likely coming next are very similar. They adjust the arithm…

Audio is covered as well, as written in the article, I recommend reading it.

https://www.mojeek.com/ even has its own crawler

There are multiple ways to start containers, one of them is to define systemd units in Ignition. If that part needs to change, reprovisioning is needed but a new "flatcar-reset" to…

There is a changed version that includes drop-in config files, masking, and loading defaults from /usr/ instead of requiring full config files to live under /etc: https://uapi-grou…

For most use cases you can configure autosuspend and always wrap your commands with systemd-inhibit or gnome-session-inhibit. E.g., for an SSH session when starting tmux, or when y…

You can spawn a (priv) container with the host PID namespace and then trace from there.

Not really, you can start it from the host and trace any container process you like. On Linux the processes are in one large tree and the host has IDs for all container processes. …

You don't need to be in the container and trace from there, you can run strace outside of the container (you just have to make sure that the process ID you use is the one as seen f…

I find myself using cat or less even thought I have bat around because copying from cat or less works best and you don't get line breaks inserted.

It's sad to see that Apple Silicon gets extra treatment and arm64 work suddenly gets done while for Linux it's still amd64-only. With Signal it's the same and they also don't offer…
