FSL is better than strait proprietary and if a company had to choose between the two I hope they choose FSL. All that said it just doesn't feel like there is a real hope here for the eventual Open source fork here. It's just a fail safe for people still on legacy systems and even then 2 years of potentially no new updates ... Could be killer for security flaws. With tons of paradigm shifts between then too.

It almost needs a SLA that says if it isn't maintained to a certain level then it is also opensourced.

I love Linux gaming. Got the Steam deck for my SO. She kind of hates it BECAUSE it's not a no tinker device.

Like if you pick the right games you're good, but want to play the "wrong" game, or want to mod, and your back to tinkering.

I don't mind it at all, it's just what PC gaming has been for me my whole life, but for her, someone who only experienced gaming on newer consoles it's a pain in the tush.

Heck you could even keep the hierarchy, but with no representation of the workers in leadership you lose an major perspective on the organization.

The fact that the employees were able represent their defacto power in a crisis is good, but the fact that the don't have explicit power in the decision making process is why this able to happen in the first place.

There are no good kings, even if the best men were made kings, they would be inherently tainted by the position.

OpenQA is the best answer that I know of for this too! You can even trigger from Gitlabs CI jobs if you are already here.

On a similar note, I want to try boot2container as my PXE target next personally

Setup a good kickstart script (even if it's just enough for Ansible to Configure it the rest of the way). It's awesome when messing with a system to be able to reboot select the reinstall PXE boot option and get a fresh install to tinker on.

Man, the Opencompute foundation work just gets no love even from people to trying to simp Facebook's work in opensource.

Does this mean anything to anyone else? I just see question marks (on Lemmy and Fenic)

Really great read! The fact that it runs lean makes me wonder if a CI pipeline would be reasonable for some folks to do

Not of Github, but Gitlab is working towards it now.

I was a computer enthusiast on a budget, so trying out new software to tinker with and rice my desktop was pretty limited until I really got into Linux. Which I started to feel I had to when I hit more and more limits on windows.

 

From my understanding hugging face is open source, but while they have lot of opensource work including clients to their website, I cannot for the life of me find the webserver's source code!

 

Late night thought on a road trip in the US and I can't stop think what an "All American meal with a great from every state" would consist of. Like something that a state is know for being exceptional in from beef to white tail to peaches to oastets to sunflowers to almonds to coffee. Even better it's something an average American could actually eat in one meal.

Extra bonus points include the greater US (American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands)!

If others want to through other wide geographic/culture dishes like an EU, North African, all of China please do so too, it would be interesting to see too!

 

With points of interest being hit or miss in areas I was wondering if anyone knew of places that contributed to openstreet maps as matter of public policy. Any examples?

 

Reddit had an outage a few months back and had an awesome write up about their troubleshooting and reengineering of their k8s set up. Does anyone have a link to that? I can't for the life of me find it.
