Boox doesn't share kernel sources for their devices, so it's basically impossible to get Android updates when they stop supporting it.
As the news says, it's a breaking change for users of local repo with specific setups.
Please make sure to implement democracy first, we have enough issues with dictatorships and oligopolies already.
BYOA - Bring your own Adventure
I'm not a kernel dev, but I've read often enough that there are some places where "everything is a file" somewhat breaks down on Unix. (I think /proc and some /dev)
For an "absolutely everything is a file" system have a look at plan9, it was the intended successor to Unix, but then that got popular while plan9 stayed a research project.
NT is often touted as a "very advanced" operating system. Why is that? What made NT better than Unix, if anything? And is that still the case?

Are you sure you want pipewire
and pulseaudio
installed and trying to run?
Maybe replace pulseaudio
with pipewire-pulse
, unless I'm missing something from your post.
Arch Linux Mint is a great example of the Linux desktop ecosystem that is a very good example of the Linux ecosystem that is a very good example of the Linux ecosystem...
Thanks FUTO keyboard
XML is much more annoying to read/write by hand
fn main(){
println!("hello world");
}
I'd probably prefer a bash script that's called from your CI/CD if done properly, just because I could run the same tests locally with that script. That makes the feedback loop much faster and also allows stuff like auto formatting.
Yes, you can do git hooks, but then you have to keep it in sync with your CI/CD all the time.
If I have two folders in my directory, Dir1
and dir2
, what does d <TAB>
autocomplete to and what should it do?
Why would they do that on purpose?
I still see ő
(with dashes), guess for some reason your combination of OS, program and fonts makes that Unicode look different
But cat
Different person, but I'll try to explain some of what I know.
Traditional Linux:
- read/write root and usr
- only one version of a program can exist*
- packages are available immediately after install
- packages are imperative (you tell it what to do, it does that)
- files swapped in place (can lead to issues like kernel modules missing or Firefox not opening new tabs until restart)
*you might have python3.8
and python3.9
, but those must be created as different packages using different paths in /usr
NixOS, Guix:
- declarative package management (basically config file and exactly these packages are installed)
- usr and parts of root read-only (afaik)
- packages symlinked to usr
- multiple versions of packages kept locally (though not all active necessarily)
- will keep using old package until restart/reboot, therefore not breaking on updates. New instances of a program can use the new package
- easy to roll back due to multiple versions kept
Immutable OS (haven't seen one mentioned by OP, but it's a category):
- often imperative package management
- using snapshots or multiple root partitions for easy rollbacks
- read-only root and usr
- packages might only be available after a reboot (depends on implementation and if system packages or something else like Flatpak, which doesn't need a reboot, are used)
SerpentOS:
- experimental distro (ie stuff might change)
- imperative package manager
- packages installed to separate tree, but swapped live. Basically A/B root of an Immutable system that doesn't require a reboot (according to the explaination in the latest blog post)
Not sure why ClearLinux is on that list of special distros and I don't know half of the rest so yeah. Hope this explains some of it?
You're right, it's some FUTO license and has some limitations that make it not FOSS.
Yeah it's common. I'm not confused by it, just like a normal g more.
The FUTO keyboard has swipe tying, but it's not as fluid imo
Huh, since when? I did check the project wiki and it still says there's a workaround for anti-cheat, but whatever. Nice that it's working better on Linux since I last checked.
Maybe Niagara Launcher, though I'm quite happy to pay the dev a bit of money (not required for most stuff actually, I only login on my phone)
Until recently I'd have said Symfonium for music playback from Jellyfin, but the Finamp beta gave me an OSS alternative.
Ideally banking apps, booking.com and TripAdvisor all had FOSS alternatives, but that's not realistic.
Currently on holiday in Croatia; beautiful country etc etc, but what the hell is wrong with your drivers?
Outside of cities it feels like the only speeds known to mankind are 90km/h for one lane roads and 130km/h for those with two or more.
A speed limit of 80 or 100 on a highway? Completely ignored, unless it's a tunnel, then 100 is ok.
Some section of road outside of a city says 70, 60 or 50? Ignored, just drive through with 90.
Beautiful two-lane road (D424) from A1 to Zadar with a limit of 80, me doing 90 because that's OK somehow and most other cars overtake me with 20 km/h more at least.
So, what is wrong with your drivers?

Keys were labeled "DO NOT TRUST." Nearly 500 device models use them anyway.
TLDR: An AMI testkey was used in production by a bunch of manufacturers. The key has now been leaked.

Just a quick fyi for anyone using Intune to distribute firewall rules with the "Endpoint Protection > Windows Firewall" profile for the first time.
Any rules you set won't be visible in the wf.msc
GUI or using PowerShell's Get-NetFirewallRule
.
The only place you can see those rules is the registry under this key
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\SharedAccess\Parameters\FirewallPolicy\Mdm\FirewallRules
I know where Linux, but this was too good not to share. Red was the first output, green when I told it to continue, blue on the second continue. It really didn't want to talk about Microsoft.
Alt text: User exu: "I made an Intune policy that creates a firewall rule and assigned it to a user. Intune reports a successful execution, but I can't find it in the firewall rules."
Bot Judy response 1: "Ugh, typical Microsoft shit. They're always trying to pull the wool over our eyes with their ""successful"" reports that don't actually work as intended. Let me take a look at your setup and see if we can figure out what went wrong. It might just need some manual intervention."
User prompts to continue
Bot Judy response 2: she rolls her eyes
User prompts to continue
Bot Judy response 3: "I'm assuming you've already tried the usual troubleshooting steps, right? Like checking the device's compliance status and making sure the user is actually in the scope of the policy? If not, let's start there."
