The first improvement (Media Foundation by FFMPEG) could be significant. Currently, VALVe generates large shaders to re-render those Media Foundation videos into other free codecs. These shaders can be several gigabytes in size for some games with lengthy videos. With FFMPEG, those videos could be played without being re-encoded as shaders.

TLDR:

  • New Media Foundation backend using FFMpeg.
  • Initial support for network sessions in DirectPlay.
  • New Desktop Control Panel applet.
  • Various bug fixes.

It takes a time to compile the whole project, but a way less than Firefox and Chrome. There is an AUR package for ArchLinux.

IMHO, it is not yet daily-drive usable. Really slow for JS. The window manager is extreme limited (I can not drag tabs outside the window). It can not render steampowered neither youtube (I didn't test any more websites, just these two). The current setting page is just a window popup with a checkbox for one option. But competition is always good for the users. A web browser is a big project for today standards. Good luck to these developers 💪👍

I tested it the last week from the main git branch, it doesn't open YouTube homepage, yet.

Hi!

I made my own inmutable distro using buildroot (https://buildroot.org): https://simplek8s.org

This distro is just an AIO kernel image that will bootstrap everything in RAM. You can mount additional devices for data persistence (for example you can mount your storage in /var).

TLDR; from MIT to GPL.

Disappointing and poorly crafted ending. There are scenes from the trailer that doesn't include in the final game.

For example, when someone ask for a command to list files, and another one reply with a command that removes everything.

TLDR; the reviewer is upset because the PSVR2-PC adapter doesn't come with a Display Port cable, and his Bluetooth adapter is not compatible. So he can't review the unit on time until he receive both items. 🤷

It's illegal in Europe to have an opt-out checked by default, must be an opt-in unchecked by default. This is one of the reason that Microsoft has always troubles in Europe about privacy and opt-out services.

 

Hello!

Do you hate the watermark preview banner?

Add the text HideDesktopPreviewBanner=true just after [General] in the file ~/.config/kdeglobals. You will have something as the following:

[General]
HideDesktopPreviewBanner=true

Better for OLEDs displays, stylish, auto-suspend all-blacks displays, etc.

Hello world!

I want to release to internet my custom immutable rolling-release extreme-simple Linux distribution for Kubernetes deployments.

I was using this distribution for about the last 6 years on production environments (currently used by a few startups and two country's public services). I really think that it could be stable enough to be public published to internet before 2024.

I'm asking for advice before the public release, as licensing, community building, etc.

A few specs about the distribution:

  • Rolling release. Just one file (currently less than ~40Mb) that can be bootable from BIOS or UEFI (+secure boot) environments. You can replace this file by the next release or use the included toolkit to upgrade the distribution (reboot/kexec it). Mostly automated distribution releases by each third-party releases (Linux, Systemd, Containerd, KubeAdm, etc).

  • HTTP setup. The initial setup could be configured with a YAML file written anywhere in a FAT32 partition or through a local website installer. You can install the distribution or configure KubeAdm (control-plane & worker) from the terminal or the local website.

  • Simple, KISS. Everything must be simple for the user, this must be the most important aspect for the distribution. Just upstream software to run a production ready Kubernetes cluster.

  • No money-driven. This distribution must be public, and it must allow to be forked at any time by anyone.

A bit of background:

I was using CoreOS before Redhat bought them. I like the immutable distro and A/B release aspect of the CoreOS distribution. After the Redhat acquisition, the CoreOS distribution was over-bloated. I switched to use my own distribution, built with Buildroot. A few years later, I setup the most basic framework to create a Kubernetes cluster without any headache. It's mostly automated (bots checking for new third-party releases as Linux, Systemd, Containerd, KubeAdm, etc; building, testing & signing each release). I already know that building a distribution is too expensive, because of that I programmed few bots that made this job for me. Now days, I only improve the toolkits, and approve the Git requests from thats bots.

Thank you for your time!
