Awesome! Been looking for something like this for so long, thanks so much for making it!
Tried it and it seems to work for the most part, but one app where it would be really helpful to me is Ghostty.app, specifically the quick-terminal, and it seems that it doesn't currently handle that, which is unfortunate.
Right, and to be specific, what they also leave out is that the DMA only mandates that third-party providers can request access, the user can be in full control without breaching the rules set by the DMA.
I bought an Arc A770 expecting that this feature would materialise based on it being available on other contemporary Intel GPUs, but it never did.
Does the B70 definitely support SR-IOV from day one?
They have a new type of core on these they refer to as a "low-power efficiency core", which is probably what is enabling these "feats", but as one of the parents to this comment points out we're comparing Windows configured in "Ultra Efficiency" mode to Apple Silicon MacBooks at most configured in Low Power mode...
Anecdotally, comparing to recent (but still older than these) generations of Intel chips I can run my M2 Max MacBook Pro with 78% battery health for longer (without any special considerations) than colleagues running their Windows Intel laptops in Power Saver mode, while performing similar tasks.
Yeah I think if they manage to solve that then we're gonna be cruising. I want to but can't really run AsahiLinux as it stands, my workstation is Thunderbolt-based and that's non-negotiable.
Yeah I think this is the biggest difference. Here in Sweden if I get a headache that's bad enough I'll just take a sick day and there's not really much social stigma about that kind of behaviour unless it becomes a pattern that you don't seek medical help for.
I work in an office, but Swedish law protects blue- and white-collared jobs the same in this regard.
I mean Azure doesn't really support IPv6 well either for a lot of the big-ticket services.
I'm sure the number probably changed a bit, but I can tell you for a fact it isn't like cheaters disappeared overnight just because they banned Linux clients.
All the damn developers keep turning off online play for Linux users though... I play two games a lot currently, Apex Legends and Battlefield 6, both block Linux players from online play thanks to their shitty kernel rootkits not supporting Linux.
Apex Legends at least was running fine on Steam Deck prior to november 2024 when they instituted this change, and I can tell you from personal experience it had very little impact on cheaters, which was their excuse for the change (supposedly most cheaters were connecting via Linux clients).
Fascinating. Could this method be used to boot iPhone OS 1.0 (or at least 1.1.1) on an iPhone 2G with 16GB NAND maybe?
The oldest iPhone OS that natively boots on my particular one is 1.1.4, 1.1.1 (which is the highest version number where you can trivially escape the OOBE via the emergency dialer) fails to initialise the FTL (flash translation layer), probably because the chip is sufficiently different from that used in the older phones.
It would bring me great joy to be able to relive emergency dialer hacktivation again, but I have lost that particular iPhone 2G, and only have this 16GB one left.
I wish the iPhone 12/13 mini had been a few mm thicker for a bigger battery, and had been in the Pro class of devices. As it stands they didn't have a good enough battery to last a day, and most people interested in smaller devices had probably just picked up the new SE that was released just half a year earlier.
Right, in the nginx example above, someone has setup a secondary tool to provide certs at the location referenced, and is also handling renewal of them.
Also, if I want to add another domain that should be accepted and reverse proxied to my application, in Caddy I just do this:
example.com wp.example.com caddyfreakingrules.example.com {
root * /var/www/wordpress
php_fastcgi unix//run/php/php-version-fpm.sock
file_server
}
Another thing, does nginx with the above configuration automatically load new certs if the ones that were there when the process spawned have since expired? Because not only does Caddy automatically renew the certs, it is handled transparently and there's zero downtime (provided nothing changes about the DNS pointers of course).
Caddy is freaking awesome!
Bonus, if this were your Caddyfile (the entire thing, this is all that's needed!):
{
admin off
auto_https prefer_wildcard
email hostmaster@example.com
cert_issuer acme {
dir https://acme-v02.api.letsencrypt.org/directory
resolvers 1.1.1.1 1.0.0.1
dns cloudflare {env.CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN}
}
ocsp_stapling off
}
example.com wp.example.com caddyfreakingrules.example.com {
root * /var/www/wordpress
php_fastcgi unix//run/php/php-version-fpm.sock
file_server
}
# This is simply to trigger generation of the wildcard cert without
# responding with the Wordpress application on all of the domains.
*.example.com {
respond "This is not the app you're looking for" 404
}
The result of which is that Caddy will only generate one cert for the above 3 sites, and Let's Encrypt won't leak the existance of the wp.example.com and caddyfreakingrules.example.com domains via certificate transparency.
I don't disagree, but if we end up in a situation where users are negatively affected because they chose not to update for fear of shit like this happening, that's not a great position either.
Yeah, I should have spent an extra 10 seconds thinking of the problem here and I'd have realised you can have multiple sensors going to different software on one steering column...
Problem with that is that if it's an online product then the manufacturer also _must_ provide updates to keep the device secure so that it continues to do whatever they sold you in the first place.
Also, adding features on its own is great, but obviously stuff like what happened here can't be allowed to happen, and those Samsung or LG smart fridges that became advertising boards is obviously also not acceptable...
Easy to call the bullshit out, hard to actually define the responsibilities of a manufacturer in a law.
Disregard me, I'm dumb.
First I thought "WTF why?", and then it appeared in my terminal and then I thought "what the hell, I thought I turned this stuff off!?!"
If Asahi Linux had support for Thunderbolt and DP alt-mode I would be running it today, but those are dealbreakers for me unfortunately.
I'm donating to them and hoping they eventually get those implemented.
Or just host their own actually end-to-end encrypted chat apps.
I also reacted to this and came to the same conclusion as you.
Sounds like what bcache does? https://bcache.evilpiepirate.org/
This is what bcachefs is based on.
letting that effort linger till display tech catches up to whatever Apple is waiting for, would feel like a waste perhaps.
To add to this, it's often said that research can only take you so far, at some point you have to ship something to get the opinions and hands on from a wider audience of users to make further discoveries and improvements.
I mean I've read a lot of what you've posted everywhere, and I can't really say I disagree with much of it, it's just a shame it all happened the way it did.
Hope "go back in later" isn't too far down the line, I have 10x8TB spinners, and 4x2TB NVMe disks that I'm looking to move from md-raid + BTRFS to something else, and I really want that to be an in-tree filesystem.
Working with the kernel has been extremely disruptive to bcachefs development and the community
From an excited and hopeful potential future user looking in, this sounds like "working with <insert only grocery store in town> has been extremely disruptive to me selling my produce", there's nowhere else your customers can realistically get your product, unless you want to only sell to extremely picky customers who will make the hour long trip out to your farm and back.
I do not strictly need bcachefs to be in the kernel.
But I (and your other users) do...
I shouldn't be weighing in, I'm a lightweight with no skin in the game here, just a regular (very technical) user. I guess I just want you to know that your product has many people that want to use it, but even I won't drive to your farm for it, as I can't risk a Linux-update breaking the DKMS-modules that make my system able to use the bcachefs filesystem all my data is on.
I don't know what possible avenue we have of getting bcachefs back into the kernel and maintained, but I hope you find it, whatever it is.
Now almost nobody will be able to use it.
Which hurts so much because it truly seems amazing from so many perspectives, and I admire Kents dedication to it. I was extremely excited to make a large bcachefs filesystem, with RAID6-like redundancy, foreground NVMe disks and spinning rust as background storage, and it seemed to be in the near future too, but now it probably won't happen at all which makes me incredibly sad for us all.
And you sure as hell don't have primadonna developers stay in the payroll for long if they start throwing tantrums and personal attacks towards fellow engineers when they are asked to follow the release process or are called out for trying to sneak untested changes in mission-critical components.
You've obviously not been in this industry for very long, about half the places I've been to have had at least one "rockstar developer" that was actually quite mediocre but had the ear of management which thought they were all that and as a result got to do whatever they wanted.
No, the bribe disk was round, this is hexagonal, big difference.
Sad to see, I was excited to switch to bcachefs on a new setup.
That’s also a 6 year old device man, it is amazing that a device with such an old battery is still running at all, I presume its been a daily driver all this time?
Depending on how degraded the original battery was it isn't necessarily placebo. If iOS detects a severely degraded battery it will clock down the CPU slightly to cope with it, sacrificing a little performance to keep the device stable.
With 3rd party batteries it can't do this, so it doesn't (I think, will admit I'm not entirely sure exactly how iOS deals with 3rd party batteries it can't determine the status of), and if you replaced it with an official part then it would have been in good condition, so regardless which road you took, it's possible that you went from a state where the OS was clocking down, to one where it wasn't anymore.
