Sure, someone helped me setting up a script to share the wl socket between namespaces so I can run GUI programs in isolated namespaces, and if you look at this post you can check the namespaced-openvpn; also check vole’s answer if you want to run GUI programs

Thank you for summarizing it up

I’ve been using network namespaces in Linux where each one also use a different user; this way you can have multiple profiles of apps separated not only by permissions but also by the VPN connection that is the only route out

So you can have a connection that will supply your favorite iso sharer, a VPN connection to work, all unaware of each ot

I still haven’t figured how to make GUI media applications work on them though

I didn’t know memes could smell like they’re old through the screen until I saw this one

Google logo before Corporate Memphis bullshit and the dude using a feet to hold his cup of tea just like the classical antiquity raptor, it’s just perfect

It seems that a namespace only has access to process that originates inside itself

systemctl --user list-units 
Failed to connect to bus: No medium found             

as we can see, the same user doesn’t have access to other processes so we would need to duplicate every process above the namespace until we could acess the media

would duplicate of everything - pulsewire, dbus, etc - even work ?

you install program A, it needs and installs libpotato then later you install program B that depends on libfries, and libfries depends on libpotato, however since you already have libpotato installed, only program B and libfries are installed The intelligence behind this is called a package manager

In windows when you install something, it usually installs itself as a standalone thing and complains/reaks when dependencies are not met - e.g having to install Visual C++ 2005-202x for games, JRE for java programs etc

instead of making you install everything that you need to run something complex, the package manager does this for you and keep tracks of where files are

and each package manager/distribution has an idea of where some files be stored
