Then why are you here?
If you're still on Lemmy...
...you're supporting the solution!
Can you give me some pointers? I'm still new to docker and podman; hoping to get this going without too much learning curve to start with!
"Sorry we broke into your security on purpose."
Really?! Do you have a source? I'd like to look this up!
Sounds like a good plot for a novel.
"Hey babe, what what temperature do I cook the chicken at?"
"Um... give me ten thousand years or so and I'll let you know."
"And this here is my Wikipedia room."
I wanted to recommend go, but you said single player... there's always Katago to play against.
I guarantee you'll never truly 'beat' the game!
That's great! - But. But, I hope some people check it out carefully. Some years ago, Lenovo middle-man'd the SSL root certificate on laptops so they could inject ads into Https web pages. (And spy on users? Steal passwords? Manipulate bank accounts? I hope not...)
I wonder what they could hide in an own Linux install?
Right. There's so much we do automatically, behaviours we've picked up from our culture, or are condoned by our culture, that we don't realise are discriminating.
In the UK recently there was a ruling about the definition of "woman" as it relates to trans women. But no definition of "man". Why!
I think that's also largely because it's women who feel vulnerable with men in their 'intimate'/'private' places like bathrooms or sleeping spaces - not so much for men. So questions like, "will the prison rules make this person share a room with me on the basis of their self-identification as a woman" are more of a concern for women than for men.
And of course efforts aimed at elevating women in e.g. STEM. If you have a women's tech group, or a women's gaming group, giving special help to women because their gender puts them at a disadvantage, do you, should you, must you, include trans women? That's going to come up about women not about men. Men's groups of these days tend to be much less relevant.
I agree the ruling should have considered both genders equally though. Actually, does it not? Or was it just the discussion, not the actual ruling, that was all women-focused not men?
Now as a man I struggle to notice when I'm getting special treatment. Even with my prior experience.
Thank you for sharing this. I'm usually in communities where - as far as I know - people treat women equally. (Or in different culture communities, so that's a whole different area.) So I tend not to notice if there's special treatment for men. This will remind me to be more aware.
I'm planning to do it with podman. It's supposed to be quite easy to convert between the two.
Cool! Thanks for explaining.
Thank you for the correction. So then, a more tinker-ready OS could do atomic upgrades, but allow manual changes/customisation to the system internals. And also handle traditional distribution-style package installation.
I suppose some people might still want to upgrade certain packages and not others, but that seems a pretty rare case these days - or maybe I just don't hang out in the right crowds!
Wow! Thank you for sharing; what an weird bug! Perhaps some ancient code to make use of notepad for view source if available, then the available function got changed, for other reasons, to if on desktop, then a different version of notepad broke the chain of borked code?
Because otherwise it would be totally believable

I also think atomic distros will become the norm eventually, but I think there's a long way to go, and not just with user adoption. When I was looking into Nix I was very excited for quite a while, but eventually I realised it's just another way of handling the package distribution/integration problem. A brilliant one, I agree, but with upsides and downsides like any other answer. And I realised that the incredible work put in by the Debian packagers is a better fit for my needs, no matter that it's an older approach.
Perhaps one day, Nix or Nix-like will mature and grow to have the right options to fill my needs better. Perhaps one of the modern Atomics will be good enough for me. Or perhaps Debian et al will run out of steam and good works, or perhaps my needs will change. Or perhaps I'll die first, after a long and happy life using traditional community package distributions.
But I look forward to the glorious future of GUIX/HURD. Even if I never live to see it.
