> For servers especially, ubuntu is often inappropriate. For instance a GUI is not often desirable in a server only computer. Ubuntu works fine headless. No one I know who uses Ubuntu on servers is using a GUI.

Because I regularly need to change configurations in snap applications, and it's a huge pain. Or I want the application to make use of files in a location, and they can't access them because they're snaps.

That's definitely true. I absolutely loathe snaps. I just don't know what distro I'd use instead for my headless servers.

Your argument essentially sets up certain websites as being "more public" than others as a legal test for liability, in a way I can only assume would be based on Google index and search results (how Grandma finds it), which is

Going off my experience, it might be about not wanting to mix replacement part pools, or just biases about ARM being underpowered among management. It sounds like they're running everything on-prem, whereas a "cloud-native" o

As I read this, my homelab toilet servers in the next room are running x86 64-bit Ubuntu. My Framework 16 laptop is running x86 64-bit Ubuntu. My RPi 5 is running 64-bit Ubuntu (though that one is ARM). I used to have half a dozen dual-boot

This was not "releasing" information, though, it was already public. The "dark web" isn't someplace you require some special invite-only connection to, it's just regular websites (even if they use TOR) that any

If this is supposed to be some argument for how the free market actually provides accountability, I would love if you could cite the last health insurance company that died because of their poor business service .

This is wonderful news. The key thing people are missing is that TikTok is not being held responsible for the video content itself , they are being held responsible for their own code's actions. The video creator didn't share (or

If the post office opened your letter, read it, and then decided to copy it and send it to a bunch of kids, you would be responsible for your part in creating it, and they would be responsible for their part in disseminating it.

RBAC is absolutely a practical security control, even for non-commercial users. Least necessary privilege is not a checkbox, it will 100% save your butt in a breach by limiting blast radius.

I wouldn't switch to Polars as a replacement to Pandas, given that Polars also seems likely to die soon. I'd also recommend avoiding Manatees.

I would also like to point out that the "long term" is just a collection of several "short terms", so if the short terms are only price increases (which they are), then the long term will also just be that.

I think the main discussion here is big SaaS companies using peoples' FOSS without giving anything back, either feature or cost-wise. No solution is perfect, but at least this would give you the ability to push back on a company that

Well, we could add commercial use prohibition into our OSS licenses.

$1 is ludicrously low as an OS licensing fee, if we're suggesting non-FOSS, proprietary alternatives.
