To be fair, the star system was garbage. I agree with the rest though

Just because Russians can’t approve commits anymore?

Russians aren’t restricted from getting their changes submitted, they just can’t be maintainers. This means that they need another maintainer to approve their changes, just like if you or me were to submit a change. A lot of people seem to be misunderstanding what actually happened.

Why though? The main benefit of solid state is the energy density, which is not at all important for a stationary, grid-connected system. It’s also super expensive. Why not just stick with sodium-ion batteries for the grid which are way cheaper per kWh?

That just made me imagine a Rust rewrite of systemd

What about the installer? Anaconda isn’t great, but you only need about 1 minute to set the options to install and then let it do it’s job before rebooting.

Tbf, this is something that only some distros do. Those distros should be reprimanded for handling home directories with the tmpfiles system, not systemd.

I’ve been using a Raspberry Pi 400 with LibreELEC installed. Mostly watch 4K HDR Blu-ray Remuxes that I have on another machine with a Samba server. Works really well for me.

Another good option would be to have Jellyfin on a media server and cast to the TV or use the TV directly if it has a Jellyfin app (I know there are official apps for Roku and WebOS (LG)). Jellyfin is similar to Plex but open-source and fully local (no need for an external account).

Of course, this is only works for local media. For streaming, just use a Chromecast.

You can’t. Just wait for it to be stable

A line of code that enables the backdoor was out present in the tarball. The actual code was obfuscated within an archive used for the unit testing.

I like the way kde does it. On first install it gives a slider with how much analytics you want to send. I just do all of it because I trust KDE, but it’s nice that it asks you. They probably have some pretty good data.

Why? NACS is a lot better. It’s not owned by Tesla, other charging networks will be using it and replacing CCS with NACS as well

DNS over TLS (aka DoT) uses port 853. DNS over HTTPS (aka DoH) uses port 443 so that it looks the same as any other web traffic for privacy reasons.

I imagine they’ll eventually work around block rules with DNS over https.

HashiCorp Nomad is a competitor to Kubernetes: https://www.nomadproject.io/

I imagine you could find a lot of options. Just a quick google turned up ThinStation, which only needs 30-50MB if storage and 64MB+ of RAM. A bit outdated, but should work fine.

You could also make your own OS with LFS if you want to optimize it to the extreme.

Chrome is actually doing a lot of work to display modern webpages though. A thin client only needs to receive a video stream and send inputs to a server. That can be done with an extremely low memory footprint. The Steam Link only had 512MB of RAM and it actually ran a steam client (which contains embedded chromium) instead of acting as a pure thin client.

The age of consent varies across the US. I remember in NJ the age of consent was 16 with a 4 year Romeo and Juliet clause.
