This _is_ Silverblue and other ostree-based repos. This article is focused on containers because when the root OS is immutable, then mutable developer workflows/etc necessarily happen in containers (distrobox, toolbox, whatever). OSTre

And the advantage of doing this over letting application authors maintain their own packages and deptrees with flatpaks/appimage/whatever is...? They could be based on top of Nix. In practice, it's more likely they'd be

The goal of systemd as an *init system* is not the same thing as the goal of some of the systemd umbrella projects, and they shouldn't be conflated. systemd as an init system is leaps and bounds ahead of sysvinit, openrc, and upstart f

Yes, because either you, the user, must track down .NET Framework X.Y (less of a problem now that they're stabilized) or because the application packs all of it dependencies and shoves them into \Program Files or \Windows\System32 unti

It's just as likely that it's "TODO: add handling for this case which is out of scope during design and which no user is likely to ever request, because the developer argued that it should be there and got shot down"

Silverblue is intended for the opposite of that. It is single system image mostly immutable root OS. The goal is to *not* tinker with the core OS, and do your tinkering in containers (toolbox, distrobox, whatever). Complaining that rpm-ostr

This falsehood needs to die. It's true for non-trivial cases, and exceptionally false for some things. Like databases. A lot of the sysctl tuning for large database environments has to be done on the host, either directly, allowing uns

Why is your project changing the license, and why do you assume that contributors would still have done so under whatever license you're changing to?

Because sometimes you have multiple, discrete applications which should be isolated, but need high performance (40gbe, optane, huge amount of CPU concurrency, whatever) and don't want to slice up the server for virtualization or run it
