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.

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.

correct on both accounts.

Thankfully nested compositor, while not perfect, work really well for most use cases.

You won’t get native multi-window support, because I don’t think there are any nested compositors that work like that. There was a project in the past, but I’m pretty sure it’s dead now. However, if you looking for something like a blue stack, it’s alternative where you’re only trying to play one game at a time, then waydroid with a nested compositor will work fine.

I apologize for the rock writing. I’m using speech 2 text.

I actually recommend using Niri lately. It’s not super great, but it does support multi-touch, which is major.

I hope cosmic supports it at some point because cosmic actually supports operating in kiosk mode, and also uses smithay.

There are good amount of applications that are only armed. Google actually might be getting an open source arm to x86 emulator/native bridge.

If they do, then waydroid can include translation directly, but as it stands, there are no open source translators, so it’s not something waydroid can ship.

ofc I do, that is why I explicitly mentioned the features I was talking about…

it was forked a while ago now though so the code bases can be quite different.

very exciting indeed. can’t wait to try it out when federated tickets and PRs are a thing.

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.

My name is Linus torvalds and this is why I TempleOS…

Termux has been a thing for years.

Termux is not a full linux environment, you need proot (slow) or chroot (insecure) to get a full environment.

I strongly disagree with this. Police should be given permission to do these things. Very rapidly with little evidence so long as they’re handled right.

In fact, this is one of those cases where it looks like it was handled right. He went to the door, came in, and it sounds like they were invited in. He was not arrested immediately and thrown to the ground. Yes it sucks, But there are very much very many cases where it is absolutely necessary.

Rather than them not being able to do it, I absolutely believe they should be allowed to do it. Just be more strict on how it’s handled.

Now THIS is a duct tape solution!

I really needed to run a compositor from an arch chroot and systemd’s udev is straight up broken in chroot, so I used libudev-zero and made sure that every time systemd updated I would delete the libudev .so file and plunk libudev-zero ontop of it, no i’ve moved on to greener pastures (Artix) but hey, it did work.

I have been looking a LONG time for a consistently stable distro, ill let you know when I find one in approx 20 years

I mean, It’s already faster for me as well as being more reliable. I would already put it in the “better then gnome” category.
