Nerd, truck driver, and kinda creeped that you’re reading this.

bdonvr,

Yeah YouTube brings me a ton of value and I wouldn’t mind paying a bit for it.

Not $14 a month though.

bdonvr,

Remember to make regular backups, kiddos.

bdonvr,

Docker containers should be MORE stable, if anything.

bdonvr, (edited )

Most containers don’t package DB servers, Precisely so you don’t have to run 10 different database servers. You can have one Postgres container or whatever. And if it’s a shitty container that DOES package the db, you can always make your own container.

that those images are configured according to your actual end-users needs, and not to some packager’s conception of a “typical user”: do you do mailing? A/V calling? collaborative document editing? … Your container probably includes (and runs) those things, and more, whether you want it or not

that those images are properly tuned for your hardware, by somehow betting on the packager to know in advance (and for every deployment) about your usable memory, storage layout, available cores/threads, baseline load and service prioritization

You can typically configure the software in a docker container just as much as you could if you installed it on your host OS… what are you on about? They’re not locked up little boxes. You can edit the config files, environment variables, whatever you want.

bdonvr,

Nothing to do with efficiency, more because the containers are come with all dependencies at exactly the right version, tested together, in an environment configured by the container creator. It provides reproducibility. As long as you have the Docker daemon running fine on the host OS, you shouldn’t have any issues running the container. (You’ll still have to configure some things, of course)

bdonvr,

See my other comment: thelemmy.club/comment/6489647

For Turkish unfortunately there isn’t a lot of beginner resources. But some are trying to build some currently. comprehensibleinputwiki.org/wiki/Turkish

But if it’s just for fun, and you don’t seriously expect to reach fluidity, I think Duo is probably not bad for that. And that’s not a bad thing, learning a language is a huge commitment. If you want more, you’d need someone willing to go one on one with you or you could continue with more traditional methods until you reach the point of being able to follow at least shows for small children like Peppa Pig and eventually onto actually interesting stuff.

bdonvr,

I dunno know the Mozart think I suppose. IATA is that international aviation organization? I think the acronym is French.

bdonvr,

On my PC direct play is possible 99% of the time.

I also watch a lot on my Apple TV which requires transcoding for some codecs.

But the big thing is my SO who does watch on the go often.

bdonvr,

Oh yeah, I backup all configs 4*day. The good thing about torrenting is even if I had catastrophic loss, as long as I have the list of torrents it should repopulate (assuming someone’s seeding).

Of course I also want to self host my personal photos/videos, and I can’t afford to lose those. I’ll have to look into seeing if any solutions support local storage plus maybe object storage as a backup.

lmao I’m dumb thanks

bdonvr,

I only ever boot Windows for VR. That’s it

bdonvr,

sudo spctl --master-disable and/or –global-disable

can I be a Free Software advocate but still use non-free software??

I’m asking this because one time, while browsing the GNU website, I noticed that some of the members’ emails had “gmail” on them!! And I asked myself how would that be possible?? And I think other members of the FSF had Gmail too. Why? Richard Stallman is against Gmail, so why would those memberse use it?? Would that...

bdonvr,

At best all your sent mail goes to junk, at worst it is just blocked altogether.

Convincing the popular small services to not mark new mail services as junk is extremely difficult

bdonvr,

I designed a chip architecture that runs bash code on silicon.

I reimplemented x86 assembly in purely bash script.

bdonvr,

Not on iOS, though I setup a shortcut that automatically replaces ?! Or !?

bdonvr,

I could leave it at work I just don’t want to buy another $100+ mouse, I use it at home

How do y'all deal with programs not supported on Linux?

I’ve been seeing all these posts about Linux lately, and looking at them, I can honestly see the appeal. I’d love having so much autonomy over the OS I use, and customize it however I like, even having so many options to choose from when it comes to distros. The only thing holding me back, however, is incompatibility issues....

bdonvr,

Wine/Proton can run a huge amount of Windows programs.

Honestly though I’ve just been using Linux for 8 or so years now and just find some other solution. For general computing it really isn’t hard at all. Perhaps if you have some weird proprietary work software or absolutely need Adobe it could be an issue

bdonvr, (edited )

I mean I know “ropes” could be used to mean that. But “blasting ropes” specifically isn’t really a thing.

In any case it’s very uncommon.

bdonvr,

I am TERRIBLE at keeping in touch for sure.

bdonvr,

Eh, who used Leap anyhow? Tumbleweed should be used by pretty much any home desktop user

bdonvr,

I graduated in 2017, they definitely did for me in elementary school.
