The problem is when Docker is used to gift wrap a mess. Then there are rotting dependencies in the containers. The nice thing about Debian packaged things is the maintainer is forced to do things properly. Even more so if they get it into the repos.

My preference is Debian Stable in LXC or even KVM for services. I only go for Docker if that is the recommended option. There is stuff out there where the recommend way is their VM image which is full of their soup of Dockers.

Docker is in my pile of technologies I don’t really like or approve of, but don’t have the energy to really fight.

Social mammals. I doubt ants and bees are very funny.

That makes me feel better. Thanks. I worry about the UK and our FPTP and Reform. They could gain power with it.

Germany electorate, please pleasantly surprise us. It’s been as dark year. Don’t vote in Nazis as well.

There is lots to fix. Including the pipe line of Linux devs into the industry.

Which sucks, because tech needs women. Badly.

Yer, it’s all tankie/troll stuff. Blocked!

If the US wants the power, it takes the responsibility. If it doesn’t take the responsibility, it will lose that power.

Russia and China would be happy to take the position vacated. If the EU got it’s act together, it could also be a contender (but it’s not looking like it will at the moment with its own Putin backed popularists).

When someone gives you that emotionless stare, it means not only is you comment not funny, it’s not really socially acceptable.

Linux users are not all male, or all straight, or single. Outside of incel groups, most groups aren’t (probably even they have members who secretly aren’t!) 😃

TLDR - if you don’t support Ukraine’s right to exist, I’m not interested in your opinion. There is no balance here. I’ve met and know too many Ukrainians.

Israel is acting in a monsterous way that doesn’t make it think of it as part of the West. The US isn’t an angel, but that doesn’t make it like Putin’s Russia. It’s false equivalent. Though, with Trump, it could degrade so much I don’t see it as part of the West anymore. If it stops being a real democracy. It could even full apart as I don’t see all the States standing for it. Putin’s, and authoritarian’s everywhere, wet dream.

Frankly if someone supports Russia over the West, or “both sides” Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, I count them as either a Russia troll farm or a tankie.

The West does bad thing, but often with some misplaced good motives. It doesn’t do things like:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisoning_of_Alexander_Litvinenko

Countries joining NATO to get protection from Russia, or the EU, to get trade deals, is not remotely the same as Russia invading Ukraine in bloody war. Or any of the murderous shit Putin has done.

There is no “both sides” here. Russia invaded Ukraine, repeatedly since 2014, salami slicing it. It interfered in elections. It killed multiple people on foreign soil, using highly dangerous, banded methods, that could easily have killed many others than the target. Putin has completely destroyed any democracy in Russia and murders his opponents.

Your probably should if your interested in digital rights. Pretty good author too.

I think a lot of people say out this election. They can’t then complain they got Trump. I don’t understand Trump Republicans, but that’s not all Republicans.

If Trump had lost, second time in a row, it could have well been the end of him. Big enough loss and it could have been end of the whole movement. Republicans could have come back to the centre. If you didn’t vote Harris, Trump is your fault. The system is completely broken, but it’s still what you have. Campaign for a better system while voting for the least bad. Enjoy your Trump.

Problem is it is used to clean out copyleft too. Copyleft is a social good version of copyright. Using AI to wash it away, along with authorship, is not ok. Lots of open source wouldn’t have taken over if it wasn’t for stickiness of copyleft breaking “the tragedy of the commons”.

I think Remain spent too long trying to counter Leaver lies. Leave just sprayed them out, not caring. Remain should have been making the case for the EU. (Though industrial scale lying is a news regulation issue. It not balance to give both sides equal time when one side is bullshiting.)

You didn’t MapMen. 😃 You can’t just do it on population numbers because minorities can end up completely unrepresented. You have to include more factors than just population numbers. But it certainty should be kept apart from politicians, and it be criminal for them to rig it…
