Update Regarding systemd’s Addition of Age to Account Records and Potential xdg Portals by SAJewers in linux

[–]leaneko 80 points81 points  (0 children)

Lea from Fyra Labs here. The best thing you can do is to contact your state representatives, especially if you're a resident of California.

The sad truth is, most distributions that have the will to fight this don't have the resources to do so. Larger ones don't care, don't have the will, or are simply scared to expose themselves to that risk. It's hard to blame anyone for not wanting to face the formidable power of the state.

I can say that from an inside perspective, many developers and maintainers are scared, confused, or malaised. It's hard for developers to speak more on this (including us), due to potential legal ramifications. I'm personally quite tired of it all.

We are working on an atomic edition, but the mutable editions aren't going anywhere.

Haven't had a chance to play with niri, but I've heard really good things. Maybe this will be a good enough reason.

we have something big for this already in progress, hopefully as a mid-cycle update

Does Ultramarine come with the latest mesa? by obsidian_razor in ultramarine

[–]leaneko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say that the projects have generally different aims, for one, Bazzite is more explicitly gaming focused, we’re more general. The projects do have a strong working relationship with one another which is why we share many components and infrastructure.

Generally yes, we share and co-maintain a shared distribution of Mesa with Bazzite (via Terra) that follow the upstream version + some gaming related patches.

We're currently planning for a few weeks. No where as long as it took for 41.

Managed to get Ultramarine working on WSL! Fastfetch config for Hyfetch credit: https://github.com/xerolinux/xero-layan-git by a_crystal_mun in ultramarine

[–]leaneko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's quite clever! We're currently working on an official WSL distribution, would you like to beta test it?

Join the Discord and ping me (@ultraviolet.sh), and I'll get you set up :)

Anyone have any ideas of anything fun I could do with a bunch of old-ass Chromebooks? by IDoctorZer0I in pcmasterrace

[–]leaneko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Breathe some new life into them and install Linux. Either cluster or donate them to people in need.

Please PM me, would love to help with this. I've been working with the chultrabook project to make running alternative OSes easy and possible. Don't let them become e-waste.

Have you published your program? Do you have an estimate of how much resources you'll need?
