COSMIC desktop alpha is out, uBlue has been doing builds of COSMIC base images
so what better way to check out COSMIC than setting up a spin of my custom image
-
finally got around to setting up ISO builds for Zeliblue again, since uBlue switched over to offline ISOs a while ago
next step would be for me to maybe finally show the Zeliblue page on my website some love, and provide a download link... https://zelikos.dev/apps/zeliblue
...but for now, just having the ISO builds in CI again is great

spent the evening working on a new branch for Zeliblue: porting everything from BlueBuild to instead be based around uBlue's own image-template stuff. this was all for the sake of experimenting, to evaluate differences between the two approaches of doing a custom uBlue image
tl;dr:
the extra flexibility of the latter approach is enticing, but there's a lot more to learn vs using BlueBuild's YAML-based approach to customizing things -
My first contribution to @UniversalBlue just merged 🎉
#Bluefin and #uBlueAurora users will soon be able to select AirPlay speakers on their network in their favorite desktop environment for audio output. 🔊

@bitprophet seems very similar to what @UniversalBlue is doing, especially with #Bluefin. But so far I love using Bluefin. I do also love #Debian so might try VanillaOS on another computer or VM.
But yeah still looking to experiment with a headless immutable #homelab server OS that is, first of all, easy to install, and second, easy to manage (e.g. via Cockpit). I think Universal Blue’s #uCore does a lot of that but it’s confusing to install unless I’m just an idiot (likely).

@vivante probier doch mal Bluefin. Gefällt mir sehr gut. https://projectbluefin.io/

Using #bootc install-to-existing-root you can now "rebase" from any classic distro to an image based OS like the ones from #UniversalBlue or #BootCrew !
----
I used EndeavourOS as a base to easily switch to arch-boot, Bluefin's Egg and many others with no issues!
All you need is bootc, podman and systemd-boot! -

Finished writing up my notes from the deployment of our latest home server and our switch to uCore: https://github.com/scottsweb/hamlet
Highlights include local SSL, an in home Steam server with Wolf and services that scale to zero when not in use (thanks to Sablier).

The Linux desktop is evolving.
Fedora Atomic, Universal Blue, and the shift from "snowflakes" to verifiable, reproducible images. I wrote about why OSTree, bootc, and images like Aurora & Bazzite are the future of reliable desktop computing.
Goodbye dnf update, hello atomic rollbacks.

Welcome to Aurorix Saigon, my opinionated take on Aurora KDE, showing a menu and a terminal window with installed cli tools. These CLI tools were installed using a predefined list in Homebrew , as was the Ungoogled Chromium flatpak. An automatically created custom image.This is very cool; further tweaking to follow.

J'avais installé la distribution Aurora sur le PC de @Plume malheureusement avec le passage à Fedora 43 ils ont décidé de ne pas garder les images contenant le pilote nvidia legacy (la version 580, dernière à supporter le GPU de son ordinateur portable.)
Il fallait donc la passer à Bazzite qui avait annoncé maintenir une variante avec ce pilote là. Vous savez comment ça s'est passé ?
J'ai lancé un backup vers son disque dur externe de backup (on utilise Pika Backup, c'est une interface graphique pour borg) histoire d'être sûre.
Et puis j'ai tapé une commande :
rpm-ostree rebase ostree-image-signed:docker://ghcr.io/ublue-os/bazzite-nvidia:stable, j'ai attendu, j'ai redémarré une fois la commande terminée, il a redémarré une fois tout seul pour faire ses trucs et quand @Plume a tapé son mot de passe elle a pu s'exclamer « Oh mais il y a rien qui a changé »Voilà c'est pour ça que je dis que les distribution immuables c'est un peu le turfu et que je suis méga fan des distribution Universal Blue.

Having fun setting up Bluefin LTS. It'll get the daily-driver test when it's ready.
I still have Aeon on the other drive.

I've installed #Bluefin in DX mode last night and I'm impressed, it's a good first experience and a Swiss army knife out of the box. With gaming flatpaks even Homeworld 3 was playable for the first time on this PC.
I need to get to work on customizing the image (I can't live without SwayWM and some other tools) and switch as soon as possible.
-
finally got around to adding in default flatpaks as part of my ISO builds for Zeliblue, just like how Bluefin and Bazzite do it, so the first-boot experience on my image is a lot nicer now
that is only for the ISOs from the Github action, tho, which I don't (currently) provide public downloads for
for rebasers and otherwise, there's also now a `restore-default-apps` `just` command (also like Bluefin and Bazzite have) to do as the name suggests

did some more refactoring in Zeliblue related to adding the `testing` tags recently. I revamped what came with the BlueBuild template into a reusable build action w/ + separate stable and testing builds
`testing` builds daily + on commits to main (same as before)
`stable` images are now strictly built and pushed daily at a set time. I've thought about making them weekly instead a la Bluefin, but for now I prefer daily

ok so alongside the brief stint on Bluefin and borrowing more stuff from it, I also switched Zeliblue over to use the fsync kernel à la Bazzite
there's no "custom kernel" module in BlueBuild right now, but we do have a containerfile module, so, here's how that's going: https://github.com/zelikos/zeliblue/pull/256

@jorge as an aside, is there a way to donate to the #Bluefin / #UniversalBlue project? I've recently cancelled the last of my #Microsoft subscriptions so I've been spreading the love for some of the #FOSS things I've been using as an alternative such as #Lutris and #LibRetro, but I couldn't see a Patreon or donate link anywhere related to
