first you would want to pretend it's possible to vet a rust app that will download a gazillion libraries.. kinda like npm, thats what cargo reminds me of 😅

at least on android the app is sandboxed, but woah, on desktop we are all so screwed..

im a little afraid of these apps, cause yeah, i dont think i can run them in a container.. they need access to all the graphics..

i think containerised GPU access is now fully a thing. not just for graphics too, if you stick a really meaty GPU in there it could run coding agents and such as well.

ill have to do some research on this.. i know it can 'use' a gpu, but.. i guess i dont want to share my 'userspace' (wayland) with it..

yeah, i'm pretty sure KVM can do it, even partition GPU resources exactly how you want it to.
