Nope. I don't talk about myself like that.

It could never apply to ad blockers. You install an ad blocker knowing that it will block stuff... and explicitly WANTING it to do so.

Nobody installed honey knowing that it was manipulating cookies and stuff. The normal layperson who installs it will just think "It's just chucking in coupon codes into that box!"...

One is predicated on a lie of omission... the other is literally what the user wants. There's a huge difference...

Can you post winnie the xi jingping on there?

Or is that an insta-ban like every other chinese-based platform?

Nah man, clearly you missed the memo that we now just take every statement out of it's obvious context and straw man the shit out of everything.

It hurts every real argument against these people when people make stupid arguments like this.

You can leave this thread any time if what I’ve said upsets you.

Didn't know you were telepathic. I'm just telling you that you're behavior is nasty. I don't give a shit either way.

The appliance is working as designed.

Let me posit it a different way. Do you know how to design a car? or a fridge? or ANY of the appliances we've dragged into this at this point? Did you make the device? Do you think that you could have or would have designed something differently if you were in charge?

So if a designer/engineer makes a product that RELIES on something... Do you really have much say in the matter? Considering that like 99% of fridges rely on power coming from a grid... Safe to say you really have no options here?

So when the one thing it relies on goes out... Who's fault is it? Nothing stopped that designer from putting a few SLA batteries into the thing and continuing on for hours during a grid outage... It's both the appliance designer for not having the foresight, and the grid maintainers fault for the outright failure. Both together could have made something foolproof, but didn't.

I can’t believe I just had to say that.

I can't believe that you think you're point of view is the only one that matters out there. What a ugly statement to make as if you were just explaining something to a child. Get over yourself. The world isn't black and white. Lots of things are gray out there, like it or not, infrastructure is a core part of decisions people make, including what vehicles people will buy.

Would you blame your refrigerator for no longer being able to keep your food cool in a power outage as readily as you would your EV for not charging, or would you blame the grid’s inability to deliver reliable power to your home?

Both the fridge and the grid... You know how/why? I choose the model of fridge that keeps seal well, that is efficient (takes less energy overall), etc... There are decisions made when buying the fridge that rely on whatever cost I evaluate at the time.

This is my point... It's ALWAYS both. They go together. The fridge is useless without power... The power is useless without shit to run. They are intertwined. If the power magically swapped to 240v rather than 120v, I'd be pissed at both the grid and my devices. If you buy an electric car and have nowhere to reliably plug it in, you're going to be mad at the car (and hopefully yourself for being stupid and listening to the car salesman).

In this SPECIFIC case, I have solar and backup battery. So I'm even more in tune with actual things like how much power my fridge draws.

Not the lacking infrastructure?

It's not the infrastructure's fault I bought the car that I can't feed with whatever energy source it uses.

If I buy a car knowing that the infrastructure is lacking then the car causes me problems doesn't it? Or lets say infrastructure disappears because of demand (or lack thereof), the car becomes useless, no? These things are linked.

The point is exactly that... “this is the world we live in”... And as that world evolves, or as technologies and consumer desires changes, what people will complain about will change as well.

If there were no gas stations around... I would blame ICE cars for needing gas and thus would choose something else that fits my needs better. The point is that infrastructure exists and is part of the package of buying the vehicle. It's fair game for discussion, and thus blame.

You wouldn’t blame a lack of convenient gas stations nearby as an issue with an ICE car, would you?

We do it with hydrogen cars... I don't see the difference here.

The difference is that ICE cars are the gold(bronze? It's not a high bar... just the one we're used to) standard to currently beat. When Electric is just as convenient or better than ICE, I'm willing to bet that people will start to argue the other way. We already see it with people who can get away with Electric at home. It's all they can go on about with how convenient that is... So much so that they seem to forget that it's only convenient for them because they're lucky enough to meet the requirements to make it convenient.

I'm the one that had to clear it... I'm pretty sure putting my face within 3 ft of the bowl uniquely qualifies me to talk about how much toilet paper was in the bowl.

This was it when I was in the military. Requisition the nice stuff? Joe's took it home.

Single ply? They break through with their fingers after 1/4 of the wipe, but I didn't have to order nearly as much of it.

As a father... of 2 girls... and a wife. I promise, you're wrong.

I have three of those super flush toilets. I cannot clog it... I've completely filled the fucking thing with shit and it flushes. The other gender in the house? They've done it twice so far. We've had this house for about 8 months now. I'm baffled.

Edit: Typos

What? You think this is disney kids?

Nothing stops them from putting the "new" connector on a shitty cable either.

I just want to point out... They took a quote from what appears to be a review... Then credit tripadvisor for it rather than the person who made the comment/review on the tripadvisor platform.

Bad citation.

The point is that you don't get alerted on motion, but instead on a detected object. Much less bullshit notifications when done this way. I use it on my frigate setup on ALL cameras (8 of them). Setup boundaries so I know when people walk into my front yard, when a car pulls into my driveway, outdoor cats are on my patio, somebody is in the pool... All sorts of stuff become useful here.

If it was just the normal "motion detected"... Every pigeon would set my cameras off for like 8 hours out of the day.

there is a easy way to synchronize your YouTube and PeerTube channel

No there isn't anymore. yt-dlp, what all those syncing tools rely one, is basically fucked at this point. Youtube has made it fucking impossible to grab content off their platform and it's really damn annoying. Even for my private IP address, I've earned what seems to be a permanent ban from Youtube.

Every video shows either this...

Or I login, and it only shows me the first 60 seconds of content before it just buffer loops forever

But I wouldn't want to sync the content from youtube anyway... Youtube compresses the shit out of everything.

I get your point. It's not hard for them to make a second post of the same video content to another platform. Many just don't see the value in it. I agree that at least FUTO should see the point of putting it up... Hell I'm even willing to share the load in the bandwidth (with my own instance that's currently up and running). Is what it is.

Well yeah... those are the only ones that matter.

Correct. It can't go anywhere because you won't acknowledge that a dockerfile is literally just a script. So arguing that one type of script is any different than any other type of script is just silly from the get-go. Not sure what point you're trying to prove. Also, "one-off" literally linked you to a whole thing of "one-off" LXC containers and you still say dumb shit like this...

You can version LXC containers.

Every command (https://docs.docker.com/build/concepts/dockerfile/) is literally just an alias of something from linux bash anyway. So I'm really not understanding why you think there's any difference here. It's literally a dumbed down bash for one specific purpose.

I'm starting to think you just don't know anything about docker. Or LXCs for that matter.

If so, that’s pathetic and weird.

Pathetic and weird is complaining about downvotes when they don't even tally up anywhere. So not only were they meaningless to begin with, they're not even as useful as they are on Reddit.

I did downvote, not because of disagreeing with me, but because

The issue with LXC is that it doesn’t set the software up for you.

is factually wrong in this context. You can absolutely distribute software in an LXC. I even pointed you directly at one such repository of hundreds of images that do exactly that. And they're repeatable and troubleshoot-able all the same. The script that a dev would publish would be doing literally the same exact thing as a dockerfile.

A dockerfile is just a glorified script. Treating it as if it's something different is intellectually dishonest. Anything in a docker can be edited/modified the same as an LXC. docker exec -it <> /bin/bash puts a user in the same position as being in an LXC container. Once again. Aside from some additional networking stuff, Docker was literally based on LXC and is more or less functionally the same. Even in their own literature they only claim that they've enhanced LXC by adding management to it... (https://www.docker.com/blog/lxc-vs-docker/) Except Proxmox can manage an LXC just fine... LXD as well.

As far as CI/CD stuff... It works on LXC containers as well... Here's an example from 3 years ago that I found literally in 10 seconds searching for LXC ci/cd https://gitlab.com/oronomo/docker-distrobuilder.

Also you can even take a DOCKERFILE and other OCI compliant images and push them directly into an LXC natively. https://www.buzzwrd.me/index.php/2021/03/10/creating-lxc-containers-from-docker-and-oci-images/ (Create LXC containers using docker images section).

like pretty much the entire development community does?

This is also a bullshit appeal/fallacy. The VAST majority of development communities don't use ANY form of containerization. It's only a subset that works on cloud platforms that now push into it... It's primarily your exposure to self-hosted communities that makes you believe this. But it's far (really far) from true. Most developers I work with professionally have no idea what docker is other than maybe have heard about it from somewhere or another. It's people like me who take their shit and publish it into a container and show them that they understand and learn more about it. And even in that environment, production tends to not be in docker at all (usually kubernetes, Openshift, Rancher, or other platforms that do not use the Docker Runtime) but that choice is solely up to the container publisher.

I didn’t like docker for the longest time

Good for you? I see docker as a useful tool for some specific stuff. But there's very few if any cases where I would take Docker over an LXC setup, even in production. I don't hate or love docker (or LXC for that matter). However... I find I get better performance, lower overhead, and better maintainability with LXC. So that's what I use. I don't delude myself that LXCs are somehow not containers... and that Docker does anything different than any other container platform.
