V8.40 => V8.40 🤔

Or just git push origin --force blank:main

Wait. So the flaw was in uutils, and this article reported it as a systemd bug…?

Debian on my personal computers and servers.

Ubuntu on my work desktop, RHEL on work’s servers

I wouldn’t consider Debian “Canonical”-y, it’s just what they happened to pick as their upstream.

I tried some of the atomic distros, but ran into too many problems. When I buy a new computer, I sometimes have to run Opensuse Tumbleweed or Arch to get new enough hardware support… Too lazy to rebuild my kernel and mesa at home

Protecting its mother’s spine?

Thanks, you typed more than I was going to :)

Only note is FEX and the Android compatibility layer were two separate goals Valve put a lot of work into, so I wouldn’t classify it as a side-effect.

One is to allow Windows games to work on the Frame, the other is to allow Android games to work on the Frame

FEX is to allow running x86 programs on ARM, but they’re only targeting the Steam Frame (SteamOS/Arch Linux) right now.

That VR headset uses a processor similar to phones, but they have not announced anything about moving to using these tools to allow you to play Windows games on Android

There are several moving pieces, so I understand the confusion

I would call it Android emulator for Linux.

The point is to be able to install and run an Android APK on SteamOS (which runs Arch Linux)

I’m confused… Cursor? Surely you control everything via keyboard?

Just need to use less obvious insults, a la, “your mother was a hamster, and your father smelt of elderberries”

Still poisons the model with something an end user won’t like, but isn’t easy enough to train out

I didn’t take it as gluttonous, more just making fun of how good cat’s internal clocks are… They know what time they were fed yesterday and will remind you if you’re even a minute late

No, other way around, Steam Frame runs Linux.

The Meta Quest VR headset runs Android, so Valve has worked on an emulation layer for Android games on Linux, ideally allowing developers to just release current Meta Quest games on their headset.

The software manager they’re using already looks like GNOME 3+

As bad as people are, something like a Tesla is much worse

And something like a Waymo costs $250,000+ which is… Hard to swallow

I’ve heard Windows ME bad, but I’ve almost never heard someone call Windows 2000 bad

Why do people keep referencing this like it was merged…

It was specifically rejected

Maybe to help, you can see where you’ve enabled “repositories” that APT can download from in /etc/apt/sources.list and /etc/apt/sources.list.d

As long as you haven’t manually installed a .dpkg package, or manually modified it, they should be something like

deb.debian.org security.debian.org

Some things like Slack may try to add their own repositories down there

When you type “sudo apt install” it is allowed to install from any configured repos down there

They don’t update the software on the steam deck frequently enough for me to be confident for phone software where security is more of a concern

It’s fine on a game device, but I have much more personal data on my phone

You see it all the time in Disney animations, Pixar animations, you see it with sprites being the same for clouds and bushes in Mario…

I don’t really see an issue with asset reuse, as long as the actions make sense in the new context

Qualcomm and most phone manufacturers try extremely hard to make sure you can’t run your own operating system on their hardware.

A bug in their security preventing you from installing your own operating system has been found on a specific Qualcomm chip - the Snapdragon 8 gen 5, which, at least for some Xiaomi phones, lets programmers load their own versions on the devices
