if he's doing a whole benchmark suite it's likely bazzite will need to build stuff, so thinking of ways to clear the board for them if/when they need to build stuff
- @James @tulip if available, we should hhelp Z just get the Bazzite ISOs over the line - we can pause Bluefin work for a bit to help them instead, we're doing ok enough
we should also investigate holding onto images longer than 90 days, perhaps start pushing to quay or something because you know he's gonna wanna do videos like "AMD performance a year later after blah blah launch"
- and then we need to deputize more trusted people so the shitshow in the channels doesn't happen when a bunch of linux users start acting like linux users
And we should find bigger builders for antheas for kernels, @Robert I'm thinking we just do dedicated blacksmith.sh - someone will need to do a quick donation drive to get some cash in to build stuff. I would commit $200 to this personally. It would at least get us moving. Or some other alternate thing.
I definitely think a project board would be helpful to organize this effort a bit better. I can commit to helping with a lot of this since my role has changed more from a ISO developer to community management / project management for Bazzite.
Also a lot of this feels like a combination of Bazzite / Ublue stuff in this thread, it would be helpful to organize where the lines of Ublue and Bazzite start and end in regards to this effort.
@antheas @Kyle Gospo once I get back from vacation, I would like to finish up the stuff related to the governance and donations since a lot of these items directly tie into how organized we are and how we can best get our house in order.
Sponsor: Thermal Grizzly Duronaut on Amazon - https://geni.us/tpgcPMw We're starting to research Linux distributions for standardized GPU benchmarking, and possibly later CPU benchmarking (depending on complexity and time). Wendell from Level1 Techs joins us to talk about Linux distributions and help us choose which one to use for standardized o...
If you really wanted to, the bluefin image builds itself (fedora & centos) can be moved to projectbluefin too. As long as we still push the images to ublue-os org, we can move all bluefin workflows to a separate org
one thing these youtbers all need often is to get kernels and drivers for pre-released things easily overlaid on the system. But at the same time that's not something you want to expsoe to users, so either a youtber-outreach support channel or some other way to accomplish this is needed
the other thing I can think off is having a defined and ready to go image you can use for benchmarks, which is basically an ephemral preconfiugred sessions/install
Something about automating multiple benchmark runs and recording the results in a consistent machine readable format. That’s something that is used by all YouTube benchmarkers. It doesn’t have to be a completely new tool, but maybe there’s some existing project or framework that Bazzite can bundle in or make easily installable
