This is basically how steam on Linux works.

Windows games are run inside wine

Wine is run in a container (they call the tech pressure vessel, the version of the container most games use is called sniper)

Linux native apps are not forced into a container, except they are on steamos, so guess its coming everywhere later

The container is based on ubuntu

No, you are supposed to stop reading after the headline, and then make a comment, not read the whole article.

While I respect that you want more apps you use into the same package manager. I may be wrong, but its my understanding that they dont accept docker containers on flathub. I don’t even know it is possible to run docker inside a flatpak or if its possible if it would conflict with docker on the host. Docker or podman requires kernel features like cgroup which I belive flatpak sandboxes away.

At the very least you need docker or podman and kvm and pass these from the host into the flatpak

I really like having all or most apps in one or max two package managers on my computer. But I think this is a case where you might have to concede installing this piece of software without a flatpak

NixOS might not be for you, it is horrible if you don’t want to adapt to it. But if this happened on NixOS, you would just reboot into the state of your computer before you ran the update. Or if it’s just a program like VLC you could just close VLC switch to the previous generation and open VLC again

Playing with Talos Linux is one of the reasons I switched to NixOS on my main computer, I loved the concept

He means running xwayland in rootfull mode as the one app run in cage

I have that one too, but my alias is called icat

You mean like growing up?

I’m out of the loop on this one? A Swedish using a Polish WM, and you call them Nazis?

I know that the hyprland dev has strong political opinions, but I genuinely dont know what they are because I don’t care, and I use another WM. Are they really both Nazis? I dont know because I dont follow these guys. I dont want this word to be misused when actual Nazis are trying to take over the free world again

Mandrake was my second distro, I think, I think I had knoppix before that. Used neither for long, switched to Ubuntu in the first or second major release. I was on Ubuntu until gnome 3 was released, then I threw up a little in my mouth and dustro hopped s bit until I landed on arch, which I also had for almost 10 years,

Now I am on NixOS,

No I am not sadomasochistic for using arch or nixos. There are benefits and trade offs, and I would not have used them for so long if it didn’t make sense for me.

I’m against distro shaming, and DE shaming. Everyone can like what they like for different reasons. That makes Linux better!

BTW, fun fact, both Arch and NixOS is older than Ubuntu, just fun to think about

He’s trying to make each new board seam like an escalation

Nixos

Or NATO just allows them to destroy airfields Russia is launching rockets from.

So our choice is to give the purse to the thief that wants more land in the future, or slap the knife out of his hand

To be fair, this is my experience in academic computer science also

Then change it Ian!

Native vulkan or opengl games doesn’t need to translate thees calls, if directx could run. Natively on Linux, it wouldn’t have to be translated

Don’t forget, we also need to shine special light onto the rock
