I'm not sure how soon you need this, but if you can wait sipeed has a $20 kvm with ATX control that should be out soon https://lunar.computer/news/sipeed-announces-new-20-risc-v-kvm-device/

There's an interesting book I read recently related to this called The Anxious Generation: how the Great Rewiring of Childhood is Causing an Epidemic of Mental Illness. I'd recommend it.

As a counterpoint, EFF put out this article today: The Surgeon General's Fear-Mongering, Unconstitutional Effort to Label Social Media

This is the part of the new compose file that I don't understand:

PICTRS__OLD_REPO__PATH=/mnt/sled-repo PICTRS__REPO__TYPE=postgres PICTRS__REPO__URL=postgres://user:password@host:5432/db

When I try to add it, pictrs complains about not being able to connect to postgres, even though the credentials are correct and I've already run the postgres migration script. Did you not do this part when you upgraded?

What will you be doing with your server?

I am using Kinoite for quite a while now and not once did layering break anything.

That's great for you. Not everyone may use their distro in the same way as you.

https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/is-silverblue-rpm-ostree-intended-to-be-used-with-layered-packages/26162/2 https://discussion.fedoraproject.org/t/fedora-silverblue-36-will-not-succesfully-deploy-after-layering-packages/77502/3 https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-software/-/issues/991 https://github.com/coreos/rpm-ostree/issues/4280

Not to mention the whole Firefox debacle of including an outdated borked version based with the system install instead of just moving to Flatpak install of most recent stable release. There's a very valid reason why package layering is discouraged by atomic maintainers and why toolbox is there by default as part of OS. And don't even get me started on DKMS and driver installation.

So, the points in favor of Kinoite is sticking closer to upstream, however it seems like I would need to layer quite a few packages. My understanding is that this is discouraged in an rpm-ostree setup, particularly due to update time and possible mismatches with RPMFusion

It's not only discouraged but often times it's system breaking. I used Kinoite for a year before I just became too frustrated and gave up. The first thing I learned though was to stay away from package layering because it tended to break things more often than not. Basically if you can't find or build a flatpak and you don't want to use toolbox all the time, just stick with workstation. Immutable is great when deploying to multiple servers or locked-down corporate workstations, but it makes no sense for your personal setup especially if you're already familiar with Linux.

Even more shocking is the revelation that somehow, even private DMs from Mastodon were mirrored on their public site and searchable. How this is even possible is beyond me, as DM’s are ostensibly only between two parties, and the message itself was sent from two hackers.town users.

I find this hard to believe but stranger things have happened.

It would be cool if Alamo still has events like Video Vortex and AGFA night after this purchase, but I kinda doubt it.

Most people I know run it in a VM. I run it on Proxmox.

They sell microplates that you can use as well if you are having trouble progressing with standard plates. Also, working out to failure on the last set and doing a drop set to failure with a lighter weight are ways to progress.

Hegel has often been described as a brilliant philosopher and mind yet terrible communicator/writer so you're not alone. There's some great videos out there that helped to clarify Hegel's points that I would recommend seeking out. Heidegger is very similar in his writing style as far as density and obscurity. It took me a long time reading and re-reading Being and Time to make sense of it.

Hmmm, are you doing progressive overload and logging your workouts?
