A great way to spend an afternoon is watching past #tech talks at conferences... no?

Well, if it's interesting enough to you, maybe take a look at "Stats roll, baby, stats roll" from Cédric Villemain, presented at #FOSDEM2025. Here, he discusses using the PACS (#PostgreSQL Advanced Cumulative Statistics) extension to explore what is offered by #Postgres as well as how to define your own new kind of statistics.

Due to the high risks against #softwarefreedom, the FSFE was granted right to intervene in the case.

Social Web FOSDEM video is out: https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event/fosdem-2025-5049-elk-a-nimble-client-for-mastodon/

Audio still not synced, but it *might* get fixed after a reencode pass thingy

With Allison, I presented at FOSDEM how we can combine UKI, composefs and containers to build a fully signed boot chain. The slides and the recording are now available: https://fosdem.org/2025/schedule/event/fosdem-2025-5191--signed-sealed-and-delivered-with-ukis-and-composefs/

This is how we are planning to bring boot chain integrity to Bootable Containers.

This is a follow up on the initial work that we presented last year at @allsystemsgo: https://cfp.all-systems-go.io/all-systems-go-2024/talk/HVEZQQ/
