ah my bad, I had thought I made it clear, I mean the greater android x86, Blisslabs projects like Bliss OS and waydroid, other projects like WSL2, tho that is dead... some chromeOS stuff too.

It's less secure, but the host<->guest seperation is there.

what does Ubuntu touch have to do with this? I explicitly refered to the greater ax86 ecosystem.

[-] Quackdoc@lemmy.world 4 points 6 days ago

It's still really basic, but has loads of potential, Unforunately it has a hard requirement on GTK, otherwise there are a few things that would have been nice for greater AX86 in general, for instance they have mediacodec->vaapi support, something ax86 has... struggled with in the past. but we can't use it since we can't use gtk.

it's worth noting that no actual security problems have been presented that haven't been dealt with, Sandboxing is available on any distro assuming the tools are made availible. Waydroid supports both apparmor and selinux, please report any security issues and tag the maintainers when doing so.

EDIT: you do need to set apparmor into enforce mode manually though.

Was this the git hosting service that wanted to have things like federated (in this case im talking about cross instance) cloning, searching and issue hosting?

I may be mistaken in general but iirc there was a hosting service like this that I found super interesting, especially in light of things like DMCA abuse against projects hosted on github and gitlab.

EDIT: seems like it is one of two, forgefed is a protocol it will use, activitypub one, very interesting.

While not seemingly relevant at first glance, turns out they are using Android under the hood Specifically, BlissOS 15 which is Android 12L.

Do we really need to be so constantly cringy about it? Yes, custom ROMs are great. I run one. Lots of other people run one. They're great. Don't get me wrong. But you have to realize most people simply don't care for one, Most vendors also don't really support their phones well under GSI, so things like camera and stuff like that hardly ever work properly.

In a lot of cases, it is quite a bit of work to get a custom rom flashed and have it working well. The technological skill gap between most people who will run an Android phone and even enthusiasts who will so much as think about installing a custom ROM is so massive that you may as well be a hacker to them.

we already have them. It's not hard to make a firearm, and the 3d printed weapons scene has taken off quite well. all of the good ones still need metal parts ofc, but they are pretty easy to get your hands on in many cases.

Not sure how long this will last, but here are some videos I took of it, try not to mind the crunch on the last one, I had to use qsv_vp9 for it since I was running out of time and space. Also don't mind the fist video's bad fps, I was compiling in the background and forgot.

This is understandable, and honestly xwayland is great, even with fractional scaling now, at the very least on KDE. I think simply relying on xwayland is a very viable solution now for a lot of apps. and it helps work around a lot of issues so that's always a major plus
