They’re both “immutable” in the sense that they’re setting up either read-only Filesystem Hierarchies (as in bazzite, which uses ostree) or Symlinking their entire filesystem hierarchy to a read-only “store” (as in nixos).

Bazzite uses something called ostree to “diff” the filesystem hierarchy much like git does, while Nix basically makes giant read-only store of files and hashes them, then weaves them all together into a “view” of a filesystem that gets symlinked into the context of a running program.

A real flatpak cake would come wrapped in the oven used to bake it.

In Japan they ramp up the time the kid is in the daycare over a week or two. But the parent doesn’t stay in the daycare.

I know of matrix, what are some other alternatives?

Also a protocol that got falsely maligned during the crypto days was secure scuttlebutt, and people should be talking about it more.

A preponderance of post-ambulation pontificators, if you will.

When I’m taking care of the kids I want time to myself, and when I get time cause they’re in daycare I wanna hang with them, it’s a vicious cycle.

I assume a lot of android foss app developers are going to refuse to register and the projects are going to need to be forked.

Personally I’m getting an old feature phone and an ipad mini that only has wifi. If my choice is between apple iOS and google iOS I’d rather just not use anything to do with Google.

These only work with ARM cpus I think

iOS has had this same system for forever and nobody’s ever (seriously) claimed you could sideload on there.

If you’re putting in that much work, please submit those edits to musicbrainz! We need all the help we can get 😭

As a musicbrainz editor, don’t depend entirely on Picard and musicbrainz for correct tagging either cause shit isn’t as well curated as you think.

You need to encode the metadata in a standard way, encode new data that shows up in a standard way, and various people can add more metadata to files: think like Posix ACLs or the immutable flag or whatever.

Nix actually invented a fork of tar specifically for this called “normalized archive” or “Nix Archive” or nar. Guix uses this too:

“here is a checksum of my /usr/lib folder, if yours differs from mine I can’t provide installation support”

This has been my issue trying to get bilingual channels registered, for some reason a lot of channels for one country aren’t allowed in YouTube kids in another.

I’m a big fan of them new fangled gravastars too.

You won’t find anything as robust as the database of reviews that Google maps has built up just due to their size and ubiquity, you’ll have to see if you can find reviews on non-maps review sites like tripadvisor, yelp, OpenTable etc.

Does ollama have a graphical client now? I have always run it as a background server.

Worst part is everything has to use Microsoft’s signing keys, so it’s ironically a gigantic security hole if your threat model includes being on Microsoft’s shit list.

rats, rats, we are the rats

Perhaps most strikingly of all, he warned the worsening climate crisis appears to be on track to destroy capitalism.

See guys? It’s not all bad. /s
