Instead, they are more like regular system services, can be controlled with the same tools, are exposed the same way in all infrastructure, and so on. The main difference is that they use a different root directory than the rest of the system.Trying out systemd's Portable Services — All in all, the core pieces are already in place for a very promising new technology that should make it easier for 3rd parties to provide Linux system-level software in a safe and convenient way, well done to the systemd team for a well executed concept. All it lacks is some polish around the tooling and integration.systemd sleep — Putting a PC to sleep is complicated business and there are different mechanisms available to achieve this on Linux. Lennart on SSH and AF_VSOCK — This automatic ssh-via-AF_VSOCK logic is particularly useful DDIs and systemd-nspawn — Or in other words: there's now unprivileged systemd-npsawn containers. Yay!Lennart on systemd-vmspawnLennart on sd_notifyLennart on dlopenLennart on run0 — There's a new tool in systemd, called run0. Or actually, it's not a new tool, it's actually the long existing tool systemd-run, but when invoked under the run0 name (via a symlink) it behaves a lot like a sudo clone. But with one key difference: it's not in fact SUID.doas - dedicated openbsd application subexecutorDoas - NixOS WikiDoas on WikipediaThe Tragedy of systemd — Join me on a journey through the bootstrap process, the history of init, the reasons why change can be scary, and the discovery of a part of your OS you may not even know existed.The Two Year Journey Funded By Arm/Qualcomm For Improving ARM Linux Laptop Support — ARM Kernel developers spent the last two years working on improving ARM Linux laptop support with a focus on the Lenovo ThinkPad X13s powered by a Qualcomm SoC.Ubuntu 24.04 LTS support to the Lenovo ThinkPad x13sSnapdragon 8cxUbuntu Asahi projectTUXEDO Working on Snapdragon X Elite Linux LaptopMembership Summer Discount — Take $1 a month of your membership for a lifetime!Spokane Meetup, Sat, Jul 13, 2024, 4:00 PMBerlin with Brent: September Meetup @ Nextcloud Conference, Fri, Sep 13, 2024 | MeetupA Nix Flake for Bitfocus CompanionChrisLAS' Beelink NixOS ConfigBluetooth - NixOS Wikinix-direnvxscreensaver on AndroidRainier cherry - WikipediaPick: Iotas — Markdown notes that syncs with NextCloud Notes.
