  1. I will be speaking at #devconf this year in Boston! I will be outlining how we took all the lessons learned from Universal Blue to build a #fedora Hummingbird style OS factory.

    I will also explain to you how I introduced AI into #bluefin with predictable, hilarious, and unexpected results. And yes, you will have ample opportunities to ridicule me. Bring your tomatos and protest signs!

    “The vertical structure of the upper ocean has a big effect on the productivity and distribution of plankton near the surface of the ocean. The vertical structure also affects the concentration of feed, and that affects the behaviour of Bluefin. Vertical structure of the water is controlled by the interaction of heating by the sun, wind-driven mixing, and the density of the water. In offshore areas, or in areas away from river outflows, density is determined mainly by water temperature. The sun warms the surface of the ocean, and the wind blowing over the ocean distributes the heat by mixing the water.
    As the sun warms the surface water it becomes less dense and forms a cap sitting on top of the cold deeper water. The temperature changes rapidly at the boundary between the warm less dense surface water and the denser, cooler water below. This boundary is called the thermocline. If you have ever swum in a lake in the summer and found it warm as bathwater in the surface, but freezing cold when you dropped your feet down, you have experienced the effect of a thermocline.
    When there is a warm cap on the ocean, the water is said to be stratified (or layered). If the wind has been calm, and the weather sunny, the warm surface layer will be stable, and strongly stratified conditions may develop. In these conditions, Bluefin dive frequently to relatively shallow depths (less than 100 metres). They dive rapidly, feed below the thermocline and return to the surface waters frequently, spending as much as 65% of their time in the upper 10 metres…
    Concentrations of feed often occur just below the thermocline. These layers can be seen on an echosounder. Bluefin dive down through the thermocline to feed on these layers. When the water is strongly stratified, the Bluefin dive more frequently to feed. They also dive faster, and stay less time in the deep cold water than they do when the water is well mixed.
    Bluefin use this foraging strategy during both day and night. These fish maintain a body temperature warmer than the water, so they remain highly efficient swimmers in cold water..."

  6. Weird thing I did last night, but that only clicked this morning.

    I stopped dual-booting Linux+Windows, and I am now dual-booting Linux+Linux. Worse than that: it's Bluefin+Bazzite. 😄

  8. @wstnly @latenightlinux I've been a long-time @elementary user. And, to be honest, I still love it and it's home. And it's quite conservative (in a good way) and, so far, not enshitified. They aren't that slow catching with the latest and greatest and they are very stable.
    I'm trying #Bluefin as main distro and I'm also loving it. It's funny how the tinkering just moves to a different place. For example, many apps ship for Debian or Fedora-based distros, so now I have a few apps running in pods

  10. Project #Bluefin is the not-quite-secret to install-and-forget-it Linux on your workstation for business or personal use.

    My current installation has been running for six months now with as close to no issues as I've ever experienced.

    It's not just the most trouble-free atomic/immutable system I've run, it's probably the most trouble free Linux/Unix overall.

    Flatpak, Distrobox, Toolbox and Homebrew are all here, and the rest of the stuff like Docker is a command away.

    Find it in #bluefin by hitting your screenshot button. If you hit it and you don't get gradia then I'm sorry that your linux distribution doesn't love you as much as we do.

  16. RE: hachyderm.io/@kolunmi/11680087

    I have been lobbying for this feature in #bazaar - in #bluefin we will use this as a develolper portalish area.

    "Set this shit up like WSL" or k8s native, all out of the box with some lightweight hooks and links.

    @siosm and I discuss this a bunch. The goal here is, app stores are so ... linux, "let's list packages". Why are people talking about packages we solved this lol. We can move on now.

    "Give me the S-tier local podman setup" isn't an app. "I work at a k8s shop but I'm just a front end person give me the guardrails" isn't an app.

    Experiences aren't apps - we will offer curated choices based on what people actually use -> "I am coming from windows and use WSL" will just get you that experience, chonky #ubuntu container and everything.

    Ship it it's userspace.

  18. #Bluefin doesn't replace #Toolbox with #Distrobox. The image includes both. Use your favorite. And probably 99% of the things you want to layer can be taken care of with #Homebrew, which is also included on the image. I still use Distrobox for my development environments, but those everyday CLI utilities come from Brew. projectbluefin.io/

  20. I'm pretty happy with the Lenovo T14 Bluefin install. Snappy, nice-looking, all the important dev tools under the hood.

    My only complaint: The trackpad. Is the trackpad on these machines terrible? Or is there some linux optimization that I need to do?

    At times it feels like trying to control a computer with mittens on. Maybe I'm just spoiled by the big macbook pro trackpad that I've been using for ages?

  22. Currently switching my #homelab from #docker compose stacks managed with #Komodo to #Podman #quadlets. Other quadlet users, how do you handle remote managment ? SSH ? #cockpit ? Something else ? I'm only interested in solutions installable as #containers , since I'm on #bluefin .

  23. That Dakotaraptor is awesome. This mornings iso did work for me. 7:49 minutes install, encrypted, tpm unlock, homebrew, distrobox, flatpak, GnomeOS. Most interestingly: this is not a distro, it's an image, with everything included. Hope the team will make a KDE Dakota. But this is great. Exciting tech that just works.

  25. @sesivany @jon +1 for #Bluefin everything is taken care of ootb, unlike other distros there's nothing major to set up for the average user. They dont really need to see the terminal or even do manual updates - just reboot ocassionally and the system even reminds to do that.

    So many things are going to get better.

  29. @Ivovanwilligen I’m ‘in love’ with anything #ublue. My game pc is running #Bazzite and the laptops are running #Aurora.

    Universal Blue also has a gnome version called #bluefin, projectbluefin.io/

    These are all immutable Linux distros, you can’t really break anything. And if you do, there’s a rollback feature. 😎

  30. After a while from when I switched from a gamer laptop to a gamer desktop, I realized that I still need a laptop, even if just sitting in the living room with it.

    Then I spelunked into a closet and found this 2014 laptop with a quad-core Intel M processor and 8GB RAM, but the thing runs Bluefin DX just fine, with Gnome, VS Code, Podman containers, everything, and it just goes. Zero issues.

    Linux FTW.

  32. after #Silverblue => Bluefin-dx rebase the #bluefin #vscode shows an UI with monospace fonts. This does not occur in a fresh VM install of Bluefin. AFAIK vscode does not allow to change fonts of UI. Any ideas...? 🤔

  34. The thing I like about using #freedesktop sdk for a base for #Bluefin is yes, it's a #linux distribution.

    But fsdk products can guarantee that its purpose will always be application developers since that's the reason it exists. That's what we mean by "distroless". You just talk move the thing that used to be important into CI and then it all becomes about the payload. The libraries application developers need with all the guarantees they expect, with the understand that THEY are the stakeholder, we're sysadmins FOR THEM.

    Also for app developers it's the easiest path to SteamOS and Bazzite. This what we mean by "distributions don't matter".

    The entire point is for users to not deal with any of this crap.

  36. In general the first day on Bluefin was pretty nice. The approach is way different, and tweaking requires jumping through hoops. Interestingly enough hardly anyone of endusers like to tweak. But the rest 'just works'. In that sense Aeon is possibly better suited, what I adjust is very basic. Fresh and kitty were only available (via homebrew) for macOS. And removing the logout option from the top right hand menu is silly. Although ctrl-alt-del gets you there. A bootc Gnome, with a CachyOS kernel. Is that too much to ask?
    #bootc #bluefin

  38. Interesting to see Bluefin with Gnome 50.1 is pretty close to KDE in RAM usage now. Which, on the 8Gb laptop, is much appreciated. Eats all I throw at it. Cool.

  39. Obviously it turned out Aeon was ok, but I wanted else. RakuOS and AerynOS didn't do smb ootb. Started the journey bcs I wanted to have a go at Dakotaraptor, see the link below. That's where we are heading, boys and girls. Amazing project! It's alpha, it didn't work out for me right now. Running the latest Bluefin now, tomorrow it'll head out with me to the job.

  40. I need to thank @valberg for the Bluefin recommendation a few months ago. I've been using it on my new laptop for a bit now, and I have barely noticed using it (I love it!).
    What is noticeable though is the quality of GNOME. This is the first time I'm actually using GNOME, and I love it so much. I have started using a bunch of the gnome apps, and seeing how well everything fits together is so satisfying.

  43. On a whim today I decided to give #Linux a go again on my main rig.

    Can I just say that the #Fedora #Bluefin makes the process of installing, configuring and using Linux infinitely easier if you don't want or need to do large amounts of manual configuration of your install - it just works (the #Nvidia specific image is a big plus as well).

    Even got #NVENC #AV1 working on #OBS with a minimal amount of fuss (haven't tested it out yet though).

    Next stop is getting my GoXLR fully working.
