  • It’s literally in every display you see in the world. OEMs stopped fucking with Windows years ago.

    Go to any fast food restaurants with those vertical displays? Linux.

    Check-in kiosks that have been deployed in the past 5 years? Linux.

    Your router, most platforms you interact with online, media devices, cars (they should be using RTOS, but many use Debian), movie theaters, POS systems…

    Linux is the most deployed OS on this planet by far. I’m kind of annoyed when people don’t realize this.

    I actually hate when engineers are just letting a desktop sit like this. It’s sloppy and unnecessary.



  • PXE is unnecessary unless you’re going to be creating a reusable boot image. Just faster to use LiveUSB.

    What did you getaid off, and what are you trying to apply to? Maybe help to understand on what you’re trying to learn.

    Just for your own sanity, just install Talos on the 3 machines, understand how to join them to a cluster, then deploy some stuff around the cluster. Get a feel for the basics before you get into the mess of trying to do it all in VMs.

    I’d also check some comparisons on the various flavors of different lube stacks: k3s, microk8s, kubedge…etc. Theres so many now it’s hard to track.










  • Red Hat is the largest funder of the Fedora Projects because it serves as a base for other things they make and support aside from their enterprise distros. Being the largest single funder gets you the most pull on the direction of said projects. They also have Red Hat employees directly running or contributing to various projects and upstream commits.

    The actual community boards and such are independent of Red Hat otherwise. Similar to how Valve suddenly has a bunch of pull in the direction of the projects they’ve been directly funding and contributing to the past few years, Red Hat informs the independent community board with commits and contributions.

    This is how the FOSS community works in general though. ‘Project A’ could be widely used in the community, but generally have fairly slow development. ‘Company A’ comes in and offers to fund feature development or big hunts, or maybe directly contribute fixes because they rely on this project. That project then either has the choice to turn down that extra help that could greatly benefit the project, or take that help, and as part of that deal, accept that ‘Company A’ now has some pull in the direction of the project.

    Kind of a majority rule via resource commitment.
