Nativefier was great. I recall that project struggling at the end really needing funding.

Throw in upgradable processors too.
Reverse engineering Touch ID might be a lot more difficult than it looks. It does not behave like any other laptop’s fingerprint reader, and even those often don’t work right with Linux out-of-the-box.
There’s nothing wrong with the software itself. It works great for what it does. On the other hand, it’s a compatibility layer, which always increases friction between things a little. I think the best use for this is running legacy software.
There aren’t many alternatives. Maybe in the future, we’ll see graphics API abstraction libraries like wgpu get used more. This gives developers a single API which can use DirectX on Windows, Vulkan on Linux, or Metal on macOS. This could allow support for entirely new graphics APIs without developers using it having to do anything.
Of course, that’s my opinion. People can build their software how they like.
Until you actually try to use Vulkan on macOS. Since there’s no native support, you end up needing MoltenVK.
You’re telling me you don’t want to update a configuration that updates a configuration that updates a configuration?
Just wait until you use Ubuntu cloud-init
which updates netplan
which then updates NetworkManager
.
Have an update that completely breaks everything on your system? Just revert to the previous image and it’s no problem.
These immutable distros have so much potential. Especially for the tech illiterate. I really encourage anyone who hasn’t yet to give them a shot.
Of course they aren’t for everybody, as it makes it far harder to make system-level changes on the local system.
Along with the ability to disable the PIN button press visual feedback. Stock Android makes it super obvious what you’re typing in.
So… show your PIN to everybody around you? Or should everybody type in a full blown password to just unlock their phone?
I haven’t used Waydroid in a while, but I recall there being an image you could choose at setup for Google Services.

Gives a surprisingly good Bedrock experience on Linux and macOS. Just needs you to own the game on the Google Play Store.
Right. I was just thinking more like the Intel pre-Haswell era. Still haven’t gotten used to the idea of an SoC being in a laptop.
