Gathering my thoughts on the use of LLMs for writing prose, and how I’ve changed my workflow following some feedback and reflection on my own writing.

The two are unrelated.

We are experimenting with the idea of using Snap packages to distribute Pipewire, Wireplumber and things like libcamera. The primary reason is to make it easier to ship later versions of these stacks on LTS releases so we can retrospectively enable support for new hardware in the LTSs.

This change is not yet confirmed, and we'll be doing opt-in trials for some time before committing to it long term. This capability will also be needed before we can deliver Ubuntu Core Desktop - which is a Snap-based system.

Any AI tools we ship will also be in snaps, but seperate.

Maybe - likely we’ll trade-off the added build/test/storage cost of maintaining each variant - so you might not see amd64v4, but possibly amd64v5 depending on how impactful they turn out to be.

The same will apply to different arm64 or riscv64 variants.

Starcraft as in *craft, as in they work on all the crafts - the star is a wildcard :)
