i've been trying to do this with systemd-nspawn

1. each one should have it's own network config, eg so i can use wireguard or a vpn

2. gui pass-through to the host, eg wayland, for trusted tools, eg firefox, zoom or citrix

3. needs to be lightweight. eg gnome-boxes is dead simple to setup and run and it works, but the resource usage was noticeably higher than native

4. optional - more security is better (ie, i might run semi-untrusted software in one of them, eg from a github repo or npm), but i'm not expecting miracles and accept that escape is possible

5. optional - sharing disk with the host via COW would be nice, so i'd only need to install the env-specific packages, not the full OS

i'm currently working on a podman solution, and i believe that it will work (but rebuilding seems to hammer the network - i'm hoping i can tweak the layers to reduce this). does microsandbox offer any advantages for this use case ?

i'm open to non-FOSS licenses (and advocate for and use a class of them), but in this case 1. afaict, the license offers zero rights to the user 2. for me personally, i want more rights for a language than for an app, eg mongo

  - me: solo dev or small team
  - you: microsoft, mongo, redis

i agree with both your examples being bad. for #2, they required one-sided CLAs while "open source". the alternative to signing the CLA was to fork, which is rarely well-received by the community, ie the same basic issue i raised

FLOSS is great in that it can facilitate collaboration and adoption, but at the expense of greatly limiting the business models. and even then context still matters - eg there's big difference between the kernel with 1000s of independent contributors, and mongo with one party holding CLA rights to the entire codebase (FLOSS in name only, i'd argue)

  - for me, what's ultimately important is that people are free and that people that do good work are rewarded
  - software licenses are just a tool to help us get there
  - non-FLOSS might enable much of that same good while scaling to more business models and software
  - they might ultimately be good for society, but getting the details right is hard
  - i'm no longer actively working on my own stuff, but my attempt was: https://github.com/db4j/pupl
  - note: if i was doing this today, the core limit would be much higher

sadly, my market fit was so bad that nobody ever looked at the license ::karma::

note: i have no problem with someone choosing not to use a product with a license they don't like (i do the same). it's the dissing of others that would use it that potentially crosses the line. i'm not even saying it *is* theft, only that there's a valid argument to that effect

i realize the cost and time to train may be prohibitive and that quality on general english might be very limited, but is the code itself available ?

what level of client-side risk are you taking connecting a freeRDP client to that host ? (i'm not worried about the case of the client infecting the host)

what is the most secure similar application ? i prefer a linux client, though would be willing to consider windows if there was a client that was significantly more secure

why aren't we seeing feature-rich dev boards based on the same platforms ?

time to start dogfooding ?

(riffing off the "Is this Arabic" that was posted a few days ago - it's a lot easier in english, ie if the speaker says ti's english, it's english)

so at least until we're able to gather more data, UAP is much better

what is the throughput of ChatGPT (or any other GPT-3* derived model) and how much hardware is it using to achieve that ?

all the common ratings that i've found online refer to COP at a non-zero delta-t over a ranges of conditions. to illustrate my question, if you needed to pump heat from 70°F indoor air to 70°F outdoor air with a 1-ton unit, what would be the best COP you could achieve in 2022 ?
