Aha, thanks.

Yeah I noticed some of the cabinet (Angela Raynor, Ed Milliband) had right honourable, but not all, but I didn't know the criteria.

I think he has that title too by virtue of being an MP, not the PM.

other MPs (I assume all but could be wrong) are also Right Honourable.

Yeah, exactly this. We're clearly not done here.

I don't know tons of the detail but I understand the principle. The immutable part of the system is really just an applied oci container image for any ublue based distro.

Certain mount points are writable and persisted (e.g. /home), but otherwise you can just reimage the entire system with any compatible (ublue based) image. Then each image is built by layering changes using ostree. So that's how you get the different distros.

Silverblue is ublue with gnome, kinoite is ublue with KDE, Bazzite layers steam, proprietary Nvidia drivers and other stuff mainly gaming related, etc.

System updates (which tend to be regular) are just applying an updated image, so actually updating is effectively the same as rebasing.

You can also yourself add ostree layers on top of the base image, and if you rebase to a different one your layers get reapplied on top.

There is definitely this for activities, so I'd be surprised if there isn't for virtual desktops given how much more popular/supported they are

Since they already mentioned WSL, you can also describe distrobox like WSL for Linux.

but yeah, agree this would be the simplest.

Ha! Good to know

I 100% agree with the sentiment here, almost exactly what I said to my wife about the perfect blend; it's uniquely Doctor Who.

However, the gravity bit is almost certainly not unnecessary, because they kept saying "mavity" for the rest of the episode. It's a clue. This is no longer our universe, shenanigans are already afoot. There's definitely a reset coming at some point, because it's not going to be "mavity" for the rest of the show's life.

And the Doctor is aware (his facial expressions whenever "mavity" was said, and he said "gravity" near the end), but Donna isn't (she didn't know what he meant when he said "gravity" near the end)

While I too like the analogy, and agree that Windows is becoming increasingly money grabby, I feel the need to be fair: as an OS it has supported native ISO mounting since Win7, just right click an ISO file and choose "Mount"...

Does anyone know if Susan is maybe a classically trained actor or something?

Lots of laugh out loud in this one for me.

Julian's deadpan sass "good luck with your career"

Sam's insane (but quite noisy) prize

I'm disappointed Alex only kept up with "(knees and toes)" for Sam's.

No secret task mention this time I think?
