I'd say Newton's 1st is more applicable here

Okay. I get it. It's also not that funny.

The maybe use public transport? If you REALLY need to use buy car - buy one.

Also: families were not mentioned before in this thread. Is driving around with your partner and 5 kids and a couch a daily occasion?

What have been your costliest mistakes in using Linux? by fnrir in c/linux@lemmy.ml
[-] fnrir 10 points 6 days ago

Hibernating my computer and then forgetting about it and booting into a different OS (Fedora Silverblue) on the same partition (BTRFS subvolume stuff). AND THEN TRYING TO RESUME THE HIBERNATED OS (Arch btw).

my filesystem was pretty much unrecoverable and it was my fault

Progress update on the Ventoy blob problem (github.com)

Posting this since quite a bit has changed since I last posted about this on !technology@lemmy.world.

Here's a rough breakdown of the current status:

  • shared Ventoy components: build and seem to work, needs more testing
    • grub / menu - builds
    • EDK II apps / UEFI chainloader and more - builds
    • iPXE / BIOS chainloader - builds, with fixes for newer toolchains
    • ISO9660 and UDF drivers - TODO
  • Ventoy CPIO / Linux ramdisk: builds; I deemed musl xzcat unneeded, so I skipped it; needs more testing
  • wimboot / Windows chainloader (?) - stalled, I lack the necessary knowledge to work on it
  • geom-ventoy / FreeBSD disk mapping kernel module - is being worked on, slowly; not ready for testing
  • anything else is a TODO

This should be enough to boot Linux with just what's built manually, but I haven't tried that yet.

Secure Boot is just done by using a pre-built bypass package. I'll deal with that later.

Having more people testing this would be nice. :)

Cheers

Looking for feedback: Ventoy CPIO (github.com)

Hello. I'm working on Ventoy CPIO, a replacement ramdisks for Ventoy. My goal is to create a sane build system (first for building ramdisks, then for the entire project), and solve the infamous issue of having blobs in the repo.
