So where is Kalpa right now?

Kalpa remains in a stable, Alpha state, as it has for the past few months.

Things are being worked on, but the project will be in a bit of a holding pattern for at least the short term, as our counterparts on openSUSE #Aeon develop some of *their* new build processes and installation tools/methods. Aeon currently has a larger pool of regular contributors, but we work from the same #microOS base, sometimes that does mean that #Kalpa is going to move a bit slower

Vamos a probar como va avanzando #openSUSE #aeon en mi viejo pc.

Cool, accessible article over at #Aeon about the strangeness and complexity of atoms and their components, and how the popular idea that atoms are mostly empty space is problematic.
(The author mentions an episode of Cosmos in which Sagan says that, and which I remember vividly despite the decades in between)

Was going to download #OpenSuse #Aeon but they don't have a Torrent or magnet link option and the direct download is being ferried by garden gnomes who are manually printing out the packets and fighting their way across the lawn to bring me the #ISO. Not a good luck for the OpenSuse project.

#Linux #FOSS

my reason for experimenting this feature or wanting this feature to work seamlessly is because of my plans towards using an immutable desktop such as #opensuse #aeon (former #microos gnome desktop) since containers are the *thing* there

Very good article at #aeon:

I’ve resisted buying a #car in #Japan as most of the time it just isn’t needed and is too
expensive.

Last week I took delivery of a #Subaru #Solterra and I must say, it is an amazing car.

Not only that, there is a discount card in Tokyo you can get as an #EV, FCEV or PHEV driver which lets you park 1 hour free at public parks. Seems like an odd benefit until you realize many public #parks have charging stands, including rapid chargers, which are free with parking.

Now with the parking discount, the charging via public parks is 100% free, so long as you’re in and out in 1 hour. Rapid chargers here universally limit you to 30 minutes. Not bad.

#aeon and other malls have also started to install both rapid and mode 3 chargers as well, and those typically have a 1 hour limit but are much cheaper or even free in many cases.

This is a big EV, and the wheelbase is definitely long compared to other cars I’ve driven, but it’s actually really hard to tell while driving. Fun car.

I would definitely #recommend #Aeon & #Psyche:

As they describe themselves:

"Aeon is a unique digital #magazine, publishing some of the most profound and #provocative #thinking on the web."

"Psyche is a digital magazine from Aeon that illuminates the #human condition through #psychology, #philosophy and the #arts."

Ich probiere gerade #microos #aeon aus: Ein rollierendes immutable Linux-System mit BTRFS-Snapshots, grafischen Applikationen als Flatpak von Flathub und Distrobox für Container:

https://en.opensuse.org/Portal:Aeon

Sehr interessantes Konzept und konzeptionell sicherlich die Zukunft von Linux-Distributionen. Schön fände ich es noch, wenn man die Basis reverten kann im Falle von eigenen Anpassungen.

Yet another good read from #aeon.co

I took a walk around Aeon Sapporo Hiraoka, a shopping mall in Kiyota Ward, Sapporo.🤗

Día de aprendizaje. Usando la herramienta #Distrobox en #OpenSuse #MicroOS #Aeon

Crea contenedores y permite usar apps y demás repos de otras distros en la que usas habitualmente. Ahí veis 'Pamac Manager' nutrido de los repositorios de #Archlinux

Of course there is nothing like the Born rule at astronomical scales (cf. the giant red "X" @ 04:23), but it's cool that the Schrödinger equation wave model is useful at the smallest and biggest scales. Cue "Your Wave God's Wave God" by Mike Skinner:

@paulfoerster @karlggestd Huh, I never read that description. Anyway I would say this is not true anymore anyway. It is rock stable (at least for me, YMMV as usual).
Give it a try. Or try out the #opensuse #MicroOS desktop variants (#Aeon GNOME of #Kalpa KDE). Although those are still in development and might be a little more rough than #tumbleweed

@jon @Vivaldi #Flatpak is the future. @opensuse with their #MicroOS, #Aeon, and #Kalpa, #SUSE proper with their #ALP, and @fedora with their #Silverblue are making that clear. Plus, If you make a Flatpak, you package your software once, and it's distribution agnostic.

Edit: can't forget the added security from the sandboxing when properly done.
