I am baffled as to why people want a GUI for Docker, of all things

Instead of having a central server, consumers interact with each other directly. That's P2P Vs centralization.

Components? What exactly would be a "product" for you then? For all intents and purposes, I get the exact same quality from AliExpress and Banggood that I get from Amazon, just the latter charges me twice/thrice. Even my experience with refunds has been better with the Chinese than Amazon who absolutely doesn't want to part with the money they wrongly took from me.

I wouldn't buy expensive electronics like Mobile phones and TVs from Chinese shops. Cups, a torch, key fob, package opener, tape etc are all "products" I bought from AliExpress which would have cost me at least twice as much from Amazon/Walmart. Why on earth should I shop at American companies again when they resell the same stuff to make extra profits off of my back??

OK, give me an American retailer who can give me the micro-controllers and sensors I need, preferably at a reasonable price. For example: a $40 ARM board with dual ethernet and WiFi card slot.

You'll quickly realise that there's a lot of things missing when you completely discount China.

Yeah I wouldn't really depend on such flimsy electronics for something so dear as a pet

I mean, what do you expect?

Use P2P instead

So, no digital electronics at all. That's a great life

I'd rather pay 80% for things that have a 50% chance of turning out shit anyway. What makes you think Amazon, Best Buy and Walmart are any better?

Nobody should be buying an automatic litter box from any of these sites. They're all coming from China with the same build-quality regardless of whom you're buying it from. I do not get the hate against Chinese shops but loving American brands who do the exact same thing but can somehow get away with empathy from people

Instagram is a "moral service"?

The only thing I use Proton for is free email accounts. They take that away, I move to cock li (I'm already in the middle of a mini-move but you can never be sure of when the smaller providers will fold).

Well, time to teach Malaysians about DNS and anarchy then

This means less users for Google, Cloudflare etc

These guys ever heard of Mozilla and good old ECH along with DoH? Just lol at these noobs.

And if the Malaysian government wants to try fucking with American tech they'll get what's coming for them

You wouldn't download /boot, would you?

How did you afford the iPhone before?

Better repairibility and no useless features like they're pushing. Graphene is good but it's not the only privacy-focused Android distribution

"bare"?

Take the Fairphone over the Pixel since you're in Europe

His engineers built it, he didn't do anything there

I like Linux and computers but I'm very boring otherwise. Interested?
