Chimera Linux: creating distribution build tooling for a small community

Chimera Linux is a relatively new Linux distribution, and quite a unique on at that, as it combines the core tools from FreeBSD, the LLVM toolchain, and the Musl C library instead of the usual suspects. Despite being relatively new, it still has some serious pedigree as the project was started b

In the coming year Microsoft will try to turn hundreds of millions of working computers into electronic waste🗑️! They have chosen to cease their support of Windows 10 while also having upped the hardware requirements for Windows 11, making it impossible for the many computers to have an up to date version of Windows.

But there is still hope! Computers can be saved from the bin by replacing Windows with a free Linux operating system and thereby getting updates for many years to come 🌍️💚. On top of that you can also avoid unwanted commercials in the start menu, get better privacy and gain more control over your computer.

So, my move to a BSD isn't going as quickly as I would like, and I wanted to get off of Debian since the whole vote to go pro-AI debacle. I figured moving to a Linux distribution that has a very strong anti-AI policy would be the right choice until I can get a BSD installed properly on my desktop or extra laptop. More than a year ago, I tried @elementary. It's an awesome project but I could never get my workflow working with the desktop environment. Most definitely not the fault of Elementary. I just have a weird workflow. Earlier today, I decided to give the latest release another try. I'm going to keep it on here and actually work with the desktop environment, instead of giving up after a day.

The project is staunchly anti-AI. And that is important to me. I know the Linux kernel is tainted but unless we want to fork the kernel from a version prior to Torvalds allowing the use of AI, we're just going to have to deal with it. I don't like it, but I'm no developer and who in the world would want to take on a forked project as big as the Linux kernel? Yikes!

Anyway, I'm really liking how I have Elementary setup on my ThinkPad T14 and I'm going to keep using it for now. Who knows? It might keep me on Linux with one piece of my hardware even after moving to BSD.

A classroom viewed from the back. Four men are at the front fscing the audience, there's a video screen showing an online chat and some online participants. There is a scattering of people in the audience.

IT are provisioning a new desktop for me and they asked me what software I needed installed. So I put down the list of apps I use, like Blender, Resolve, ffmpeg, VLC, yadda yaddda, … and tacked on the end was Linux OS. I was kinda trolling, fully expecting the answer to be lolno, but they've gone and set up a meeting to discuss what distro and desktop environment I need. Feeling like the squeaky wheel here, getting some grease.

Yay. I just got hit on the nose by rsync sloprot. Somehow I had avoided it so far. The "don't worry, it's fixed in the next version. Just upgrade" response doesn't fill me with warm fuzzy feelings. I'm now pondering my options. I haven't found a clear obvious safe choice for a slop free fork yet, and switching to another implementation will involve a verification process, and possibly porting of tooling.

Can we please just keep our software working reliably?

I was pointing out to one of my fellow stable kernel testers that they are eligible to vote and should ask for a ballot, but they unfortunately believe they aren't worthy enough because all they do every week is test the real kernels people actually use and spend hours of their own free time finding and preventing bugs from reaching users, and they are only a volunteer and voting should probably be left to the professionals...

I usually don't really find anything I do something I should be proud of because I'm a dumb little lizard but the amount of progress I've managed to do to Union QStyle in a month (well, three weeks, because Akademy) is very pleasing to me.

In both images:

• On left, Union QStyle about month ago.
• On right: Union QStyle now.

There are still minor issues but those will get polished. Some of them are just wrong CSS that are way easier to fix now than writing a whole C++ theme.

I wrote a QStyle theme for Union from scratch pretty much (with a lot of help from others in the community) and well. It's been a ride. Not over yet, there's still edge cases to hunt, but for 6.8 release for people to tinker and play with, it should be pretty good.

I hope you all will like tinkering with Union and making crazy themes. I'm looking forward to seeing all of that.

I think I'll allow myself to be a bit proud. This has been one of the most difficult computer things I've ever done, I think.

Had to work on an Alma #Linux system today, and spent WAY too long trying to figure out networking. I really felt like I was going a bit nuts.

It turns out they really, really want to be like Windows - uf you change network settings in the GUI, even after you click “Apply”, the settings don’t actually change, even though you can exit the settings window, reopen it, and see the settings you set.

A full reboot is required.

How is this possibly acceptable?

Hi! I'm looking for a job or gig! I live in the US (Central Indiana), and would much much rather work remotely.

I have system administration experience with #WindowsServer, #Linux, and #OpenBSD professionally. I strongly prefer the #BSD family of OSes and am willing to work with #NetBSD and #FreeBSD professionally and have played with them off the job. I have done this for about three years.

I also know graphic design. My preferred programs are #GIMP and #Inkscape, but I can use #Photoshop or #Illustrator if need be. I have done this for a decade.

I have skills in development, especially web development, and have professionally developed with #Javascript, #Python, and #Go. I also am trying to familiarize myself with #VisualBasic6 for legacy maintenance. I also have experience working with Microsoft #SQLServer databases, as well as played with other major SQL servers. I've also played with many other languages. I'm also willing to familiarize myself with a tech stack on the fly. As implied, I am willing to touch legacy code.

I have also designed websites, and am quite familiar with #HTML and #CSS. I also got #JQuery to play nicely as well.

I am a jack of all trades, with my strongest skills I feel be in system administration and graphic design.

LLMs and generative AI are something I prefer to avoid where possible. I have experience with working under tight deadlines with a micromanaging boss before recent hype around LLMs, though I'd rather avoid such things if possible.

Meine lieben Fedinautys, ich brauche mal eure Erfahrungswerte! 🫢

Ich überlege gerade, was nach meinem Nothing Phone 2 kommen soll.

Eigentlich war ich ziemlich festgelegt:
Fairphone 6+ mit CalyxOS, sobald es verfügbar ist.

Aber jetzt erwische ich mich immer öfter bei dem Gedanken: Warum nicht gleich den grossen Schritt wagen und das Jolla 2026 mit SailfishOS nehmen? 📱 🐧 🇪🇺

Mir ist durchaus bewusst, dass das nicht einfach "anderes Handy, anderes Betriebssystem" bedeutet. Aber genau das reizt mich.

Bis vor drei Jahren war ich noch ein bequemer Apple-User und habe Smartphone, Anwendungen und Apps ziemlich gedankenlos genutzt. Dann wagte ich mit dem Nothing Phone meinen ersten Schritt in die Android-Welt und habe anschliessend selbst LineageOS geflasht, um mich Schritt für Schritt von BigTech und der Orange aus dem Oval Office zu lösen. Danach habe ich mir einen refurbished Acer zugelegt und Linux Mint darauf installiert.

Ich bin also durchaus bereit, zu lernen und Kompromisse einzugehen, aber meine Erfahrung mit Linux und alternativen Betriebssystemen ist noch ziemlich überschaubar ... 🤭

Nun denn … bevor ich mich ins Verderben stürze und ein Jolla-Smartphone bestelle: Soll ich es wagen? 😂

Mir ist bewusst, dass damit vermutlich eine lange Beziehung zu Foren, Wikis und der Kommandozeile beginnt. Aber lohnt es sich? 😅

Wer von euch hat den Schritt gewagt und mag berichten? 🐧

I'd kinda forgotten about Cosmic because of the impression (don't know if it's justified) that it's Gnome-like. But if it's really AI-free, might be worth checking out.

PS ah but it seems it's dependent on SystemD, which means it's Linux-only.

So Cosmic can't be run on an AI-free OS like NetBSD :(

Debian is obviously a rock-solid choice for CERN. With their massive software ecosystem and community, it makes total sense why they went that route. But part of me can't help but wonder what a NetBSD-powered Large Hadron Collider would look like! ⚛️

NetBSD’s hardware portability just seems like a perfect match for lab. Plus, using pkgsrc to manage complex scientific software seamlessly across all those different niche architectures would be incredible to see at that scale.

Nothing but respect for the Debian rollout, but a sysadmin can dream! 🚩🚀
