  • Think of it like you have a base OS that is stock, like Fedora Silverblue/Kinoite. Then the different ublue offerings, Bluefin/Aurora/Bazzite/Ucore take those and add new things on top. If you rebase, anything you installed as a user isn’t touched. But all of the addons change to whatever the default is for that ublue variant.

    So someone rebasing from Bluefin/Aurora to Bazzite will have Lutris and Steam (and other gaming specific software and system tweaks) automatically ‘layered’ as part of the default experience, since Bazzite is targeted primarily at gaming, and the other two for general desktop use.

    You’re swapping out the default system image, just like when you update and the update is actually just replacing your entire OS with the new version (until the feature that let’s them only replace things that have changed gets finished).






  • How often do you hear about Nepal in any context? Most people can’t even point to it on a map and keep asking me how my time was in Tibet.

    They have a whole history exhibit in the old Kathmandu palace that talks about the Maoist insurgency and their role in dismantling the monarchy prior to the royal massaacre.

    Even so, the current government has been so ineffectual in some areas that some protestors have demonstrated to have the monarchy back. Part of this is because the Maoists and other communist groups lost their fangs when they started these coalitions and the government gets into standstills where nothing gets accomplished except the continual repaving of the roads to and from the airport whenever a foreign diplomat is due.

    This is cool and good news.
