I tend to run into it with weird places where you might also see the java web start stuff. Like banks and credit card companies.

I like Krita. I use it regularly. But the anime splash is unprofessional. The big boss is NOT a tech. If I open it up to show him something, and the first thing he sees is Kiki, he's going to have opinions on the subject. Company of &l

I like the splash screens too. But they're also not professional. If I'm showing something to the big boss, and the first thing they see is an anime splash screen, he's going to look at me funny. GIMP I don't have that p

The only thing preventing us from pushing Krita instead of GIMP on laptops is the anime startup splash.

I learned how to handle a civil dispute through a lawyer. I was not intending to spend the time and money to learn this. Would have been nice to have a boring lockdown. Maybe during round 2.

TBF I like k8s as a service or platform. Once metallb came out to solve the "bare metal load balancer" problem it could deliver the entire product I was looking for. My big issue with it is the underlying complexity and house of c

ECS control planes cost nothing. If you're actually looking to build isolation in AWS then you're going to need EC2 dedicated for your EKS member hosts. So you're not getting isolation for $200/month (I'd have to sp

Are they still charging something ridiculous for control planes? When I looked at it they were like $200/month. I wasn't aware they were offering fargate on EKS now. They weren't when I looked at it last.

I'm sure it works fine if you can get it running (documentation didn't work when I played with it). I'm referring more to the $200/month it was per control plane. That to me is a product they offer because someone else i

Swarm being dead is news to me, we use it for our on-prem bits without issue (though we only have a few of them). We use ECS for the majority of our container orchestration and love it.

EKS is a feature parity product. The pricing makes that painfully obvious.

The 'needing a team' aspect of Kubernetes sounds remarkably similar to conversations I had like 8 years ago when Openstack was the new hotness. We went with ECS and have been happy with it. It plays well with all of AWS's oth

I've never felt a desire or need to use snap at any point. Since we've been implementing CIS standards I've started nuking snapd on host bake. Maybe it's a thing for linux on the desktop, but my time isn't worthless

I enjoy KSP1 and have a bunch of hours in it. But if they Take2 it I'll just skip 2 and keep playing 1. The last couple years I've gotten real good at passing on games. ex: I thoroughly enjoyed doom 2016 single player, was ambival

TBH, for me it's usually "Using Kubernetes." Maybe on GCP (I don't see a lot of companies on GCP) it makes sense, but ECS is AWS native and on bare hardware I immediately go to docker swarm since it ships with the contai

AWS SQS, RabbitMQ, or Redis. I would build on one of those 3 first, then migrate when throughput became an issue. I've had good experiences with Kinesis Firehose as well. I've yet to run into a workload that actually needed Kafka

Manufacturing is the one place I still use on-prem, mostly because I work in a field that has compliance reasons for doing so and the, 'internets out, we can't print' problem.

TBF windows licensing in general is a shit show, to the point where just handling that is a specialized ability potentially warranting a full time position.

Cloud falls over if you have a lot of data egress. I don't work on those types of workloads (mainly in PCI and a little bit of HIPAA) so I stick to cloud for the sheer convenience factor (it's easier to fix a security group than h

Why would I sign up for something from your service to get around your service? I'll just bounce and use one of your customers competitors.

Yes, and it made half the web unusable. Getting captchaed twice in 60 seconds is an immediate bounce from me.

I suspect you will see a considerable bounce rate once you switch. Pretty much the day Cloudflare flipped over half the web became 'captcha every 5 seconds' garbage. Some sites that are the only source of what I'm looking for

I don't give the slightest fuck about GDPR because of the dumbass cookie popups they forced on every single site.

Requiring everyone to post those stupid cookie popups is not going to win you any advocates.
