bdonvr,

Hey buddy can a pal get the recipe?

bdonvr,

Docker containers should be MORE stable, if anything.

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)

I’ve setup Nextcloud but have done next to nothing with it.

My Lemmy instance gives me the most problems, but it’s also the only publicly available service I run. Mostly the issue is it seems to have a memory leak that forces me to restart it every few days.

Everything else has been completely rock solid for me, running on a mini pc (formerly a pi4 until I wanted to start doing stuff with Jellyfin and needed more power for transcoding) on OpenSUSE Leap all in docker containers. Makes it insanely easy to move stuff. I had no issues basically just copying the docker-compose files and data and bringing them up even when switching architectures.

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,

It’s a little bougie but I think we can solve this with some high powered springs

Huh, I didn’t know chili had such an incredibly strict definition. Does this strict definition mean that adding anything extra no longer makes it chili? If so is chocolate, cocoa, or cinnamon also included in this super strict definition? If not then isn’t adding these things make it some kind of “stew” not chili? Or is it just beans that make this dish magically transform into something else?

I’d love to see this definition. Specifically where it says “unless it has beans, then it becomes something else”

bdonvr,

Oooh sorry that’s incorrect. No I think you’ve confused “Chili” and “Chili con carne”. Chili doesn’t have meat, and if you add it then you have “Chill con carne” (con carne = with meat)

We have to be ridiculously gatekeepy and precise in our words, of course.
