Containers have revolutionized how we develop, test, and deploy applications. While Docker is the most well-known containerization technology, Podman offers a compelling alternative that doesn’t require a daemon running in the background.

This tutorial will walk you through setting up Podman on Ubuntu and getting started with basic container operations.

In early 2022 Samsung engineers began working on upstreaming support for the Tesla Full Self-Driving "FSD" SoC to the mainline Linux kernel. Those early patches were mainlined in Linux 5.18 and later in 2022 turned to working on the PCIe support for the Tesla FSD SoC with the mainline kernel, but then work seemingly ceased on this upstreaming effort. More than two years later, the work was restarted today with Samsung posting the latest patches for enabling PCI Express support for the Tesla FSD SoC in the Linux kernel...
