No it is not. The “first instruction in the BIOS” is 16 bit mode code when dealing with an x86 VM. A virtual environment doesn’t even really need any BIOS or anything like that. You can feel free to test with qemu direct kernel booting to s

Yes. The delay you’re complaining about happens because you are looking at general hypervisors which also come with virtualized hardware and need to mimic a bunch of stuff so that most software will work as usual. For example: your VM start

The answer is that it doesn’t have to be like that. In practice virtual machines are trying to emulate a lot of stuff that isn’t really needed but they’re doing it for compatibility. If one builds a hypervisor which is optimized for startup

One can definitely build a container runtime that uses virtualization to protect the host For example there is Kata containers https://katacontainers.io/ This can be used with regular `podman` by just changing the container

I like this a lot. The caveat is not that bad because anyway with stow or other solutions you still need to add things manually. I believe one could even add stuff like `!.bashrc` to the gitignore so it can keep track of these files automat

There is money to be made on consumer level OS. The reason people buy RHEL is because you can get support for any problems. Consumers are not gonna get that so they might as well just run CentOS Stream for example.

I think this approach predates Vue. I know of two examples: 1. Fedora in collaboration with GCC maintainers keep GCC on the bleeding edge so it can be used to compile the whole Fedora corpus. This validates the compiler against a set of pac

In many cases the build output also has hardcoded paths unfortunately so doing `brew install` inside a container with the proper volumes it’s not sufficient to fix the issue. Everything would have to run from within the container as well.

They could distribute source code under AGPLv3 while also offering paid/propietary pre-compiled binaries

I see. I kind of assumed improving the C++ compiler required improving the C parts as well. VLA situation seems complex: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55696680/in-which-versio...

The “people” don’t really matter. Anyone who needs a secure boot environment is having their own MOK and probably a private CA.

The thing it should really do is enabling users to more easily build their own “distros”. bootc should have support for distros other than Fedora eventually

You can use buildah(shell, python, etc) or nix to create OCI images. This has nothing to do with docker.

You can literally do the same thing with IPv6. Just assign multiple IPv6 to your loopback interface and everything will work as expected. You can use either private IPv6 or even link-local IPv6 range. There’s no need to waste thousands of a

How is fedora “closely tied to Gtk” in any way that it isn’t also “closely tied to Qt”? Fedora KDE is literally release blocking and has been approved for promotion to be on the same level as Fedora Workstation.

Citizens don’t care because if you show them an armed standoff where the police brutalized some people then they will say: 1. I’m not in armed standoff often so this is not impacting me at all. 2. The brutality seems to have come from city

1. Use a hash for the base images. 2. The meaning of “latest” is dependent on what base images you are using. Using UBI images for example means your versions are not going to change because redhat versions don’t really change. But really c

except you need to install the correct Java version and maven (we really should be using gradle by now) Also in many projects there’s things other than code that need to be “built” (assets, textures, translations, etc). Adding custom build

It’s the same thing for the purposes of capturing the build environment. It doesn’t really matter if you have to spin up a Linux instances and then run your build environment as a container there vs spinning up a windows VM.

Containerize the build environment so everything is captured (dependencies, build tools, etc)
