Not sure, lxc has always been a little clunkier but if you look at the 80% case of "docker pull X; docker build .; docker run ..." I don't see how that problem couldn't have been solved. (No, this is not supposed to be a

I don't even think you're wrong - at some point I actually enjoyed many of those things you list. But either it's being 5-15 years older now or enjoying that I don't have the flu several times per year or saving 60-90 mi

Depends on how you want to look at it. Deciding that you, as the current organizing team of a large-scale event, won't be responsible for possibly 10k people catching it on your event is also a valid choice until someone steps up who c

Mask usage has gone down to... I'd say 20-30% in the supermarkets I frequent, but I don't think it's completely wrong with the implied exaggeration for effect.

counterpoint: the place where I usually order my pizza (without an account, nice) has an optional field for phone number and they even write "in case something goes wrong". If this was an ecommerce order then yes, I'd rather

I hardly blame the users though. If you actually have a certain amount of 2FA methods, the order in which they want to be migrated is often contradicting. So for some of them what you should do (according to docs): Unlink 2FA, migrate phone

It's just as if "running a single container hands-off" and "having 1-n VPS" can be completely different things for different use cases.

Your comparison is bad and you should know it. If they'd be complaining about their mobile phone bill being higher than their landline bill, fine - but that's not the case. I'm pretty sure the last land line phone my parents

This is not a slight against KDE, but without a tiling WM I'm maybe not enjoying it enough to switch from Windows. It's one thing that I can't do my work on Windows (without a VM or containers), but my workflow being complete

Zero clue how it works where you live (and yes, I saw that this was about California), but in Germany and Austria it's basically at the county level, so every time you move more than like 20km, you get a new plate (some amount of lenie

My experience is mostly that you either upgrade because it has a feature you need (then you try it out fast), if it has some performance or other nice thing (then you go for the .1) or you don't really care then you upgrade when your c

I honestly don't remember when I sent or received the last SMS that was not the telco's "Welcome to $country, the rates are ...". I.e. I don't have a strong opinion on this, I simply do not use SMS.

Counterpoint, and let's assume mostly parity of flask :: sinatra and rails :: django. I've usually used Flask and even when I needed a few db operations you could easily contain that to a small part of the code and stepping up to
