it is a stupidly simple working demo of DRM circumvention

A much more simpler method is to just use Streamfab. No need for nVidia, a second PC etc.

In my experience (W11 + Fedora on UEFI Thinkpad), I’ve seen it actually get rid of the Fedora entry from the UEFI boot list. Reinstalling GRUB from chroot didn’t fix it, so I used EasyUEFI and manually added the Fedora EFI file to the boot list and that worked.

So it wasn’t simply changing the boot order, it actually nuked Fedora from the UEFI boot list.

I that case, check out Fedora CoreOS.

https://www.talos.dev/

It runs entirely in RAM, administration is super simple, no ssh, easy to update/and upgrade, immutable, minimal distro designed specifically for secure container usage.

How about Gogs? The whole thing is < 30 MB, and is lightweight enough to run on a Raspberry Pi. You can even get a native binary package if you want to run it without the overhead of Docker.

Corrected, thanks!

• Fedora KDE plans to drop the Plasma X11 session, in favor of Wayland

• Because X11 is bloated, insecure, and in a development freeze since many years.

• Wayland is simple, secure, minimal; developed by former X11 devs.

• Challenges:

• Wayland’s minimal core protocols lacked essential features.

• Fragmentation in development efforts occurred.

• Protocol approval was political and time-consuming.

• Current State:

• Standard protocols for most requirements are now available.

• Plasma and KDE apps run well on Wayland with the upcoming Plasma 6 release.

• Many 3rd-party apps work via the XWayland compatibility layer, but some need to be ported to Wayland.

• Conclusion:

• Fedora aims to drop the Plasma X11 session entirely, if you don’t like it then switch disros.

• Many 3rd-party apps are already Wayland-ready, but many are not, and collaboration is needed to expedite this transition.

Oh. I was expecting Okonomiyaki.

There’s TrafficToll. It hasn’t had any updates for a while, but since it’s just a python frontend for tc (which is still maintained), it should work just fine.

The enshittification actually began several years ago, back when FB bought WhatsApp. That was the moment you gave up on privacy, the moment that was a clear sign that it was all going to go downhill from there. If y’all didn’t quit WhatsApp at that time, then you bought it upon yourselves. The truth is, you’ve been using a shitty service for a long time and whoring your data to Meta and making Zuckerberg richer, so this latest feature bloat or w/e isn’t the least bit interesting.

Yep

#Roombas, roll out!

Inflexible by Nature

This is my biggest concern with immutable distros, but this article says nothing to address it. It gave examples of changing certain parts in NixOS, but I’d rather see a couple of “hello world” type examples for a few other popular immutable distros.

Eg, how do I alter a file, say /etc/fstsb, in Fedora Silverblue, Nitrux, BlendOS etc? Is it as easy as remounting your root as r/w and saving? Or does it require a 100 steps? If it isn’t straightforward, then it may well be considered as inflexible.

But fear not, the Swat Kats are on their way to save the day!

Cue Swat Kats theme

nVidia doesn’t, but lawyers do. License violations are not cool, regardless of who does it.

Yep, just use the rectangular selection from the edge panel and you can save it as a screenshot or extract the text.

TIL about Kagi summarizer. Thanks!

Counter-counterpoint: he could work as a pentester, where his sole purpose is to just break into things.

Leave the policy making and actual hardening to someone else.

TL;DW?

Native Alpha is an opensource alternative.
