    The good news is that in order to exploit the new vulnerability, the attacker first has to obtain kernel level access to the system somehow - by exploiting some other vulnerabilities perhaps.

    The bad news is once Sinkclose attack is performed, it can be hard to detect and mitigate: it can even survive an OS reinstall.

    I’m a nix noob but I think this is a release of the nix package manager and therefore it’s unrelated to the version of the nix channel with nix packages.

    Sounds like you have a pretty okay experience but some specific things don’t work - please take some time to report bugs if you haven’t yet!

    I use a PS5 controller paired wirelessly with my deck. I think the touchpad just worked for me with no extra settings (apart from picking a steam input configuration that supports it) but in practice I almost never use it for gaming.

    Not sure what chiaki4deck is but I don’t believe it’s necessary for PS5 controller support.

    Update: i may have installed something for gyro support at some point but it wasn’t chiaki4deck

    The blog post title is a bit more fluffy than that, but the gist is that Google Cloud Platform's main offering for managed Postgres instances now supports pgvector out of the box
