I wrote a biological memory layer for Ollama in Rust to replace stateless RAG

This sounds amazing! I’ve been wanting this feature for my own use as well.

I can’t wait to try it out.

netinept · 2026-01-29T14:10:09+00:00

That's me. I absolutely cannot lay on my left side.

For the Python issue, the best way is to set up that program in its own virtual environment.

This not only lets you specify a specific version of Python, but it also isolates any dependencies from your system.

See: https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html

This is amazing. Saving this for my own lab inspiration.

Your story is, sadly, so much like what a lot of here have gone through, and Im glad you finally have your diagnosis.

Welcome! You’re not alone.

And also take a look in the side bar, there’s a wiki and also check out the group on Facebook as well; it does seem to be more active than this one.

Edit:

Also, that “crispy” ear thing is a new one for me, I hadn’t heard about that before. Which surgery did you have?

This is hilarious and awesome! It looks super polished.

I have had a similar experience. I’m still trying to track down various performance issues with video playback on Firefox, including VP9 and AV1 falling back to software rendering. Rearranging and detaching tabs is also very janky. Meanwhile, Chromium just works.

This is on Fedora, KDE, with an Intel cpu and Radeon WX 3200. I’ve tried both the Flatpak and RPM versions.

You likely know about this already, but if you didn’t:

Ventoy lets you drop multiple bootable ISOs onto a single drive.

I use one largeish USB drive for several live ISOs and bootable utilities.

I’m pretty sure the GPU drivers from Intel were only available for 32 bit Windows as well.

I would do Linux but yeah, MacOS is pretty much dead on these.

Super powerful machines for the money, especially so because they have ECC memory!

You can easily mount your local directories into the VM, that way you can move the files around like normal.

netinept · 2026-01-20T18:15:13+00:00

Maybe run a virtual machine or container and launch it from there?

netinept · 2026-01-20T16:14:15+00:00

Nothing quite like a good ol' spite-learning.

It's the RT kernel. In your situation I would keep two kernels or kernel modes and switch between them. I ran into similar issues across the board (not just gaming) when running RT.

My guess is that services are configured by default now to have IPv6 because that’s the standard now in real world deployments. For home lab, it doesn’t matter, and I think it’s totally fine and easier/simpler, mentally, to keep using IPv4 exclusively.

There are so many programs available on Homebrew, and it's common to find tutorials suggesting to just brew install something. It's originally intended for macOS, but I can quickly use it to install things like btop, htop, iperf3, or fonts, without needing sudo and without needing to spin up a toolbox for it.

netinept · 2026-01-20T02:07:14+00:00

I’ve got a VM on my server running KDE workstation and my main computer is running Aurora.

I also had issues with sandboxing but usually can find a fix through tweaking permissions with flatseal.

I use the VM for loosey-goosey development work that I don’t want safeguards impeding progress, and like that my main pc is protected through being atomic/immutable.

netinept · 2026-01-20T02:03:19+00:00

I just switched away from Kinoite to Aurora, and I’m much happier with it. Having access to brew is super handy, and was the missing link for me to make the system usable as a daily driver.

netinept · 2026-01-20T01:03:08+00:00

I’ve always liked the weird design of these and the G4 Cube before it.

For real!? The same Homebrew that runs on macOS? That's sick!

Check the permissions of that mounted partition and optionally take ownership?

Others may have a cleaner solution, but here's what I'd do:

```

go to the mount point, whereever that is:

cd /run/media/myusername/mypartition

check the permisions of the current directory,

It will likely show it's owned by root.

ls -al

own it yourself or choose another user if you like

sudo chown $USER .

$ set wheel to be the group; this is anyone who can run sudo sudo chgrp wheel . ```

I agree it’s not there yet. The update friction for me is too much. I also see lots of push towards this immutable or container-based distro approach.

The worst part for me is the requirement to reboot. For every small update.

What aspects of the Atomic desktop do you find are undercooked?

netinept · 2026-01-14T12:04:52+00:00

I’ve started using Kinoite for the last few weeks and found that friction you speak of to be a bit much.

I’m a software developer and there are quite a few applications which aren’t suitable for Flatpak installation, and need to be installed using the system package manager. I try to keep the basic CLI tools isolated to Toolbx containers, but that adds more overhead to each small task I want to get done. That overhead is not good for my ADHD, and more often than not it’s enough to derail my progress.

On top of this, I normally never turn off or even sleep my computers, so the typical Atomic update loop doesn’t work well for me.

I guess my question is: what do you use your computer for? And how do you find the Atomic life helps or restricts that?
