DivestOS on my tablet

Cool, there are supported tablets now?

Oh I thought that was only Artix, what does CachyOS use?

Is that so? From the issue I read there was no way around it because the two images are fundamentally incompatible once you layer that package, you had to remove the layered package, it seemed from the discussion that they might have “fixed” the base image at some point as a pull request was opened on Pagure. I waited a bit for it to go upstream, but nothing happened for a long time and just went thorugh with the manual intervention, and actually, now that I check it again, the maintainer siosm commented that they can’t accept the PR

Doesn’t Bazzite have the base image modified to have the codecs included already? I think that’s probably why you didn’t experience any disruption there

• Full hardware accelerated codec support for H264 decoding.

Love the irony, but this is painting a little too good a picture

Every update is just… meh. Smooth, new, fresh system not affected by my stupid tweaking and breaking

Most times yes, but major updates usually cause some trouble, like from 39 to 40, you couldn’t do it without uninstalling the codecs for Firefox. Firefox that is installed by default as an RPM, because the Flatpak Firefox doesn’t yet have 100% compatibility with all the features that work with the RPM, so as a user you’re pretty much led to get yourself stuck in this hole, not too difficult to fix in the end, but still a pain to find out and fix.

Everything else is 100% true! And I think it will be always hard to beat as an implementation of immutability (second place only to NixOS imo), A/B partitioning doesn’t hold a candle to OSTree

nahh, you’re lying, and you know that

it is a one tap move

that’s cool!

Ahh, thank you

Outfits? What does it mean in this context?

Feel free to steal the idea. I stole it from another post somewhere in here myself. 😄

Ahh I see, then it’ll be an honor to copy from a true programmer.

We can only dream of dots.

Isn’t the launcher backup the “dots” for this?

This is really cool! I have to steal the idea of using emojis as tags.
Btw, any dots? 👀

Both features are important IMO, reproducibility is for being able to define certain aspects of your machine in a way that you can nuke it and, as long as you have its configuration (declarative for Nix, other implementations might have it as imperative), bring it back just how it was set up, without differences or breakages; while immutability is for being always confident that whatever* you do to your machine, you won’t be able to break it because the root, which holds the functioning core of your system, can’t be messed around with, NixOS has both I believe.

*not really “whatever”, because there are still some ways to break, but you have to be very deliberate in doing it (think rm -rf /*), but in normal operation you won’t just somehow install something or upgrade your packages and be left with an unusable system

I think ublue is the best incarnation of this style of “tweak forks”, it meaningfully expands on the base, but still remains compatible with the original since you can just do a rebase from one of the original Fedora Atomic spins… which wouldn’t have been possible without OSTree, so thanks, Fedora devs :)

Just don’t live in an English speaking country, easy!

edit: deleted for inaccurate info, don’t consider my dumb rant O.o

I found it unfamiliar in the few times I saw it, but maybe it’s worth giving a try
