Ok rather than any of the nice projects I talked about on 2/7, I now have... the idea of making a ronin alternative, that uses podman instead of qemu. Coincidentally, I can see this converging, as I dig into the implementation of podman and see qemu.
$ podman system connection list Name URI Identity Default podman-machine-default ssh://[email protected]:50117/run/user/501/podman/podman.sock /Users/razzi/.ssh/podman-machine-default true podman-machine-default-root ssh://[email protected]:50117/run/podman/podman.sock /Users/razzi/.ssh/podman-machine-default false $ podman machine list NAME VM TYPE CREATED LAST UP CPUS MEMORY DISK SIZE podman-machine-default* qemu 5 months ago 3 months ago 1 2GiB 100GiB $ podman machine start Starting machine "podman-machine-default" Waiting for VM ... Error: qemu exited unexpectedly with exit code 1, stderr: qemu-system-x86_64: -drive if=virtio,file=/Users/razzi/.local/share/containers/podman/machine/qemu/podman-machine-default_fedora-coreos-38.20230819.2.0-qemu.x86_64.qcow2: Could not open '/Users/razzi/.local/share/containers/podman/machine/qemu/podman-machine-default_fedora-coreos-38.20230819.2.0-qemu.x86_64.qcow2': No such file or directory $ podman machine list NAME VM TYPE CREATED LAST UP CPUS MEMORY DISK SIZE podman-machine-default* qemu 5 months ago 3 months ago 1 2GiB 100GiB $ podman machine rm podman-machine-default The following files will be deleted: /Users/razzi/.ssh/podman-machine-default /Users/razzi/.ssh/podman-machine-default.pub /Users/razzi/.config/containers/podman/machine/qemu/podman-machine-default.ign /Users/razzi/.local/share/containers/podman/machine/qemu/podman-machine-default_fedora-coreos-38.20230819.2.0-qemu.x86_64.qcow2 /Users/razzi/.local/share/containers/podman/machine/qemu/podman.sock /Users/razzi/.config/containers/podman/machine/qemu/podman-machine-default.json
GOh right, I'm thinking of calling this podman-based tool po. Like https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C5%8D Getting this helpful message upon startup
$ podman machine start
Starting machine "podman-machine-default"
Waiting for VM ...
Mounting volume... /Users:/Users
Mounting volume... /private:/private
Mounting volume... /var/folders:/var/folders
This machine is currently configured in rootless mode. If your containers
require root permissions (e.g. ports < 1024), or if you run into compatibility
issues with non-podman clients, you can switch using the following command:
podman machine set --rootful
API forwarding listening on: /Users/razzi/.local/share/containers/podman/machine/qemu/podman.sock
The system helper service is not installed; the default Docker API socket
address can't be used by podman. If you would like to install it, run the following commands:
sudo /usr/local/Cellar/podman/4.8.2/bin/podman-mac-helper install
podman machine stop; podman machine start
You can still connect Docker API clients by setting DOCKER_HOST using the
following command in your terminal session:
export DOCKER_HOST='unix:///Users/razzi/.local/share/containers/podman/machine/qemu/podman.sock'
Machine "podman-machine-default" started successfully
Sure enough
$ docker ps Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///var/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running? $ env DOCKER_HOST='unix:///Users/razzi/.local/share/containers/podman/machine/qemu/podman.sock' docker ps CONTAINER ID IMAGE COMMAND CREATED STATUS PORTS NAMES
Ok I added a po user but when I switched to it I got no sudo! Looks like it's not installed by default. Here are the packages before any updates/installs

Merrily proceeding along, I installed doas and enabled `permit po as root` into /etc/doas.conf
I modified this to be `permit nopass po as root`; no nano or vim, just used echo again.
Then I thought "I'll set up fish" but I got a huge dependency tree:

Ok here's this snippet of a blog post I was thinking about earlier
But you can’t stop a gold rush
When you think about it, OpenSea would actually be much “better” in the immediate sense if all the web3 parts were gone. It would be faster, cheaper for everyone, and easier to use. For example, to accept a bid on my NFT, I would have had to pay over $80-$150+ just in ethereum transaction fees. That puts an artificial floor on all bids, since otherwise you’d lose money by accepting a bid for less than the gas fees. Payment fees by credit card, which typically feel extortionary, look cheap compared to that.
