> AstraZeneca is currently struggling to produce 2 million doses a week for the UK [0]. How does the EU expect to use UK production to shore up a shortfall of 49 million doses that they require in February/March?

open-source the vaccine, the recipes, processes, etc. everything needed so EU can look for a capable manufacturer on its own?

here's what I had to do on Arch to enable unlocking the root volume with TPM2: https://github.com/systemd/systemd/pull/17741#issuecomment-7...

it'll need some work from the distros so the whole process is a bit more straightforward.

There's also this FPGA board and I think you can order it already: https://ulx3s.github.io/

The ULX3S FPGA board has the Lattice ECP5 FPGA, and an ESP32 that connects to wifi and can reprogram the FPGA.

that seems to me a simplifistic conclusion.

modern interfaces in windows 10 and macOS are quite inconsistent and not-beatiful compared to for ex. KDE which slowly evolves and polishes up. macOS on the other hand limits and removes features without becoming more consistent.

it is runtime config. these are defaults in case the distro doesn't change it, or the admin doesn't set it.

Does NetBSD support initramfs (the name of the Linux feature)? That would avoid having to create a disk image by running a bare system from a ramfs/tmpfs.

I experimented with something like that with Linux and cloud-hypervisor (a firecracker fork): https://gist.github.com/gdamjan/1f260b58eb9fb1ba62d223495858...

why are we (as a civilization) even optimizing for this?

wait, are you claiming that phone companies are recording all your calls (and content you create) to make psychological profiles of people, and then sell access to those profiles to other companies? Have you ever got any news feed filled with ads based on what you talked over the phone?

the author can license his own source code however he likes. only, when distributing the compiled binaries, you're required to provide the whole sources under libre (gpl compatible) terms.

that's not needed at all, unless you have legacy applications.

you can open a dri render device node, and use it directly
