Enhanced Flavor™

Openwrt on my flint 2 With adgaurd/pihole I know its not technically an app, but lots of people forget there routers exist and are a very big security hole

You would not believe what my samsung tv pings

Tiktok (somehow came preinstalled)

Hulu(we dont have a hulu account)

Tubi(we dont use tubi)

Amazon(it seems to be for samsung tv plus)

I ended up blocking everything except amazon, samsung tv, and netflix on the dns level

Its also really good for stopping non power users (aka family member’s) from getting malware/phished

–edit fixed formatting

But is it compatable with my 1999 toaster. It can run doom if that helps

Gently used laptop

No lowballs Will not respond to “is this available” Price is firm

It went crunch but not bang yet

huh thanks for the insight, there is alot of moving parts to ublue XD

Thanks for your input, but i cannot remember the exact error. But it would say it cannot install steam because of layering.

See we had auroa layered on bazzite, and for some reaaon steam wouldnt install because it got added then removed by layers.

We had the same problem with firefox, another friend needed non-flatpak firefox for a cac card reader and there were drivers available but didnt work with flatpak. And when we tried to install firefox via rpm os-tree it just failed in the same way

I gotta agree, ublue is an amazing technology and recently got my friend to switch from windows 11 to aurora for school work. Hes is very happy with it, and its pretty bullet proof. However the following month he wanted linux on his ryzen 9, 6900xt gaming desktop.

We started with aurora, which had problems with getting steam to work, tried flatpak couldnt get the 2nd ssd to have permisions to use as a steam library. Tried bazzite container, sometimes wouldnt launch. Tried intalling it through rpm ostree. And after my friend said he wanted to get virtual machines and stuff. I was tapped out, we tried bazzite. But the immutability is the main selling point of being imencly hard to break. But when it got in your way it was sisyhian. We eventually got fedora workstation 40 and hes been really happy with it!

The only thing he has had problems with is running an old star trek game through lutris, it has a weird aspect ration and thr cursor is offset. We still havent been able to fix it.

So basically ublue is if its there already its super easy to install and if its not it is emencly hard.

I dont know if this would be applicable for your use case.

But in gentoo one of the recommended ways to backup your system is rsync. Rsync is single threaded, but keeps all softlinks and hardlinks aswell as accepting an exclude list for directorys you want rsync to ignore. I have recovered from some pretty big dumb dumb moments and have used rsync to build packages on my threadripper and syncing them to lower power devices like my laptop and raspi. And they work pretty well!

If you do decide to go with rsync you can use “rsync -aP (from directory) (to directory)” the “a” stands for archive this keeps all permissons, softlinks and hardlinks. The P stands for a progress bar, so you can see how its going. Another benefit of rsync is you can start copying and stop and start and it will only SYNC over what isnt new or modified. After the files are synced over you need to edit your fstab (its af file where you computer mounts your disks) and grub-mk-config. If not re-install grub

Hope this helps

Thanks for the great memes! And contributing to the Fediverse

I wasnt sure at first but now i have the ham brain paracite.

HAAAAM HAM HAAAAM

Half life 3 dropping?

What fork is it?

Perfect to go with GNU

Yeah same :/ I miss my jams

Innertune is pretty good aswell

With microsoft edge preinstalled

Good Corprate Will

Gentoo is busting instantly and waiting 6 months for the Baby to compile

so ive deep dived into as much information as i can find. the TLDR is the main dev LongPanda supposedly went on a vacation to china (most likely his home country?) to which there is conflicting information on his return. one path is he make a lemmy account 9hours ago and made a message that doesn’t describe the blob and sound like a gpt response. to which his "irl friend made an account 3 hours ago to comment that he hasnt heard from LongPanda in months. both were removed from lemmy.ml because of suspected impersonation. the other side of the coin is the LongPanda is still gone and hasn’t addressed the blobs. after looking thought the documentation, you can build from source. in the instructions it says "5. Binaries

There some binaries in Ventoy install package. These files are downloaded from other open source project’s website, such as busybox."

i am not a programer but in the source build it lists the blobs and were there from supposedly from other FOSS projects with sha256’s. so theoretically you should be able to verify the blobs, with the sha256.
