I also went down this path but for a different reason. Game streaming to my steam deck from my ultrawide monitor wasn't practical. The games on whales project is really good, it's not VM but rather containerized game sessions. It has numerous issues with podman sadly which is why I now use edvi and various scripts to just generate a fake monitor to stream.
Everytime I upload a package with altool, it makes a copy of the package somewhere in /var/folders. Luckily rebooting the computer cleans this up so it's not the issue you are running into, but if I'm not careful about rebooting the systems, our CI/CD stops working until I get physical access to the machines for a reboot.
It would be great if people actually did this, but in the US that is not the case. There are only so many people you can convince to move off of their main platform, and usually you have to meet people where they are.
Exactly — I know a good portion of my family simply wouldn't switch. SMS and MMS are also less secure and a poor experience (e.g. photos are often swapped via iMessage).
I definitely fall into this trap sometimes. Oftentimes that simple order of ops swap will fix my issue, but when it doesn't, it's easy to get stuck in the "just one more change" mindset instead of taking a step back to re-assess.
Netflix is fine so long as you don't live in Japan (I wonder how other countries are). They only give Japanese subtitles for most anime here. Netflix produced anime do have a great breadth of options for subtitles and audio though.
Mostly valid. There are a few gotchas but for most use cases it is drop-in.
I think I've run into issues with the podman socket, and there were some permissions problems I had getting games-on-whales setup in userspace.
Pretty sure it varies depending on where you live. iirc When I was in SF the tickets would get distributed ahead of time and the sweeper would follow within an hour or so. Once the sweeper went by you were free to re-park.
In Oakland, there are different vehicles that come by for different purposes. As I understand it there’s an agitator, sprayer, and sweeper. You have to know when the whole process is complete, so I understand it’s easier just to avoid for the whole window.
