I've been running smartos at least since 2015 where I co-located my server. There have been times where I felt like giving up, but people like danmcd, jperkin and others always stepped in and fixed what needed to be fixed for LX to be

I'm running OLCP'd Ventura on MBA11 2014. Works just fine. Sonoma should be supported too, but haven't tried yet.

I have C-states already disabled because of old linux kernel bug where the kernel hang on Zen3 architecture. So not much to see here :)

You still can, SmartTube could be sideloaded on smart TVs and/or TV sticks with usbOTG cable. https://smarttube.app/ It can skip ads and/or sponsor segments, intro, outro etc.

I'm running it's older cousin - N36L with 4 Drives. The CPU in that one is Athlon II Neo N36L with 12W TDP, 3.5" spinning drives are 7-10W per drive. So 40W is very reasonable. Op should just run more services on his server,

There's just one slightly opaque pitfall, not all laptops have a BIOS setting where you can specify what to do on power-loss and power-resume. So the laptop "server" stays off and you need to intervene manually. I've had

Does this work for anybody? I've just tried it in a KVM Debian 11 VM on proxmox. Deploying from yml manifest does not like my `ssh: true', removing existing /etc/firecracker/manifest/*.yml file segfaults the d

FWIW, I've installed Monterey on the 11" Air Early 2014 and indeed, no root patching is necessary. OCLP only needs to be installed in the EFI partition to boot. csrutil status says "enabled." in this case.

There was a thread about running older versions of OSX and macos: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31164521 In that thread, you get to learn how you can run latest chromium on Maverics. Firefox is a toast now. General r

Used Debian and Ubuntu on Macbook Air 2015 before. In ubuntu everything works out of the box, but camera - you need to compile your own driver from github. You pay a bit in battery life and heat for having an FOSS operating system - ballpar

Actually, I'm running Monterey on mac mini late-2012 with i7 and 16G of RAM and if I don't apply the root patches, I don't have transparency or acceleration in the UI. After root patching for the first time and then installin

Hi Wowfunhappy, you got me thinking. Like ... really thinking. So, to cut long story short, I've installed Maverics in a VM to do a short & free PoC, how much would I like this "retro" experience with iWork, iLife and fri

Thanks! I'm aware of this. I don't know how to describe it properly - the old OSX icons, even the "lickable" control buttons in snow leopard look just right. It's almost like there's a black line around the ico

I really miss the colors and contrast of Snow Leopard. I was able to relatively okay with things up to High Sierra. Mojave brought random freezes on wake (~10s) on my Macbook Air 2015, Catalina brought call-home on every executable. Big Sur

Text console is ASCII. Xorg speaks UTF-8 fluently. Just set LC_CTYPE=cs_CZ.UTF-8 in .xsession or equivalent (locale -a) and you're good to go.

I think you focus on the wrong thing. If your code is good, just send git diff to the mailing list and watch it being commited. Tools used is not some kind of magic pixie dust ...
