I had an epic case of insomnia a few years ago
The Super Bowl knocked me right out right after the first quarter

Me too, looks like two fun teams, and I wonder if those new cards will work with existing teams

I’ve noticed this too.. and I actually liked it enough to sliiightly boost the default font sizes in @AeonDesktop as a result

No community includes everyone
“a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common”
Anyone who doesn’t share that characteristic is by definition not part of a community
Folk really have warped perspectives and expectations in this area
Replying to @ValknutDoc @chaz_6
I think it’s often overlooked how the “community of maintainers” may have needs & interests that differ from the “community of users”
And given the former is doing the work, often their needs do, and probably should, trump the latter
FOSD doesn’t mean users get to rule devs

Hi! In case you missed, my #FOSDEM talk about creating a #rootless #container manager from scratch is available!
We'll talk about the basic principles to build your own container manager, using #lilipod as an example:

Perhaps that’s a good argument for not rushing to adopt everything R4L throw around then, is it.
Stuff in the kernel has a typical lifespan of decades
No maintainer should be comfortable accepting ANYTHING from R4L until there is a reasonable expectation it might last a while
Replying to @DaveAirlie @BrodieOnLinux
Exactly - Linus is a federated/feudal project; Maintainers are Lords of their own domain and Rust4Linux need to accept that not all maintainers want, or can, accept their code
It’s a long road, and Rusters can’t quit at the first hurdle. There will be more
Replying to @BrodieOnLinux
I disagree
The Kernel is not centrally steered by Linus
He’s the ultimate arbitrator, sure, he can reject things other maintainers would accept, but he cannot do the inverse; A maintainer who doesn’t like, want, or know Rust can’t be forced to accept it in their subsystem
The whole “Rust in the Linux kernel” drama should be a lesson to all in Open Source
The technology doesn’t matter
Working with other people does
Doesn’t matter if Rust is a gift from God, God doesn’t control what gets in the Kernel, maintainers do
Technical arguments are moot

While I appreciate your intent to protect fellow rollers I trust in @openQA to find these issues and block 6.13.1 from hitting @AeonDesktop so I’ll just keep on rolling :)

US bans TikTok
Europe bans unattached bottle caps
I can’t help but think there may be bigger issues that need more urgent attention
Replying to @mattfarina
Sure.. but I’m not trying to take over the world with Aeon
As long as it’s good enough for me, I’m happy enough
The fact that good enough for me is also better for SUSE IT is also a nice bonus too ;)
Replying to @sysrich @mattfarina
Or at least not easy while still being secure
And given I use Aeon for work, I gotta keep it secure
And I’m pretty proud of how usable AND secure we’ve made Aeon out of the box
Losing Hibernation is one of very few compromises we needed to accept
