If I were a maintainer in that position I’d be barring the doors too. It’s not a driver for some esoteric realtek wireless card or something.
This effectively kills R4L. If they can’t include Rust Interfaces for important subsystems, each driver written in Rust that uses these subsystems has to separately track all the Subsystem Interfaces, leading to lots of extra work for no benefit.
If this is the approach Linux takes, they should just cancel R4L completely.
This creates a lot of extra work for no benefit, as every driver that needs DMA would have to include their own copy of the DMA stuff.
Yup. They also did this with Docker, and it broke my setup (and was a bitch to debug).
This was a couple of years ago, and I haven’t used Ubuntu unless absolutely necessary (and then usually in a container).
Sorry, I meant any distributions that aren’t Ubuntu. I don’t mind Mint!
Yep, adding a non-Ubuntu-distribution makes it a great recommendation.
Sure, but it also means we shouldn’t blindly recommend Linux and let users run into the arms of another Microsoft. Recommend good distributions.
nervous Ubuntu noises
That sucks! Which handheld is it, if I may ask?
Hey! So I have no experience with the Arch-based immutable systems (beyond my own Steam Deck), but it seems like they don’t support layering the way Fedora does with ostree. The easiest solution for you would be to create a script that you can execute after every update - that should at least keep the work to a minimum. If that’s not good enough Bazzite is probably your best bet. I really like the atomic Fedora systems, but I can understand not wanting to re-do your setup if it’s working well!
Not just that, it’s the reason why it doesn’t need semicolons: https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/JavaScript/Automatic_semicolon_insertion

Oh boy, are you gonna LOVE Javascript
Surely fertilizer and other additions can be used to adjust this, or genetic editing can be used to incorporate some stuff?
Okay, but almost everything is trademarked, doesn’t mean it can’t be bought/sold?
The issue is that just based on the history you’ve mentioned I can’t say much about the status today. What developments have happened over the last two decades with more advanced methods? How much of the research is shared between countries, how much of the plants etc?
Thank you for the explanation, I didn’t know about a lot of that! But the jump from all of that information to “beer with hop outside US/NZ is only average” is too large and too subjective.
Thanks for the tip, I’ll try to keep a look out!
Most of my experience is with the southern regions, my favorite being Tegernseer Hell - I think I’ve seen that in Belgium, though that might have been at one of those “sells every kind of beer” kiosks in Brussels.
I haven’t had much Belgian beer, but the ones I had were great!
Are there actual, scientific studies on this topic? Because it’s hard for me to take your word for it when all my lived experience has been the opposite.
Nobody asked for the code to be maintained by DMA. The maintainer blocked a PR outside his subsystem, and even if it was part of his subsystem, the R4L approach is that C developers can break Rust code however they want.
Literally nobody suggested that the DMA maintainers should maintain Rust code.
