  • the NSA (which lacks a mandate to act on US soil, and CF is a US company)

    They absolutely do have a mandate to operate on US soil, that is actually the main mandate and there is a separate military agency (CNMF) that operates on foreign soil. They are both headed by the same guy though so they might as well just be one agency.




  • There is one extra step. I have an 6700xt, and with the docker containers, you just have to pass the environment variable HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0 to allow that card to work. For cards other than 6000 series, you would need to look up the version to pass for your generation.

    Here’s an example compose file that I use for ollama that runs ai models on my 6700xt.

    version: '3'
    services:
      ollama:
        image: ollama/ollama:rocm
        container_name: ollama
        devices:
          - /dev/kfd:/dev/kfd
          - /dev/dri:/dev/dri
        group_add:
          - video
        ports:
          - "11434:11434"
        environment:
          - HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0
        volumes:
          - ollama_data:/root/.ollama
    
    volumes:
      ollama_data:
    





  • What are you even talking about? systemd is currently under an opensource license, they cant retroactively change that. Any changes would be for it going forward if it is even possible for them to buy the rights to it (which I’m not convinced it is as Lennart Poettering is not the sole contributor and Red Hat / IBM and many others also have a significant stake in it). Sun patented Java on it upon its creation and when oracle bought sun, they bought the rights to those patents. They aren’t comparable situations. Java was never open source, it was source available, but still proprietary.



  • That is my point, they have tried and failed completely before when their main product was windows licenses. Now, linux is incredibly important to their azure business, they wouldn’t want to potentially cause detriment to that and is far more important to them than windows licenses.

    Also why would we have to rip out systemd, even if they tried to claim ownership of it and make it proprietary, it could be forked from before the license change and we would keep on going like nothing happened.
