That's not US politics. And the rule is temporary; the goal is just to get a breather after a months-long marathon of hearing about nothing else on Lemmy.
Coming at this from the JS world... Why the heck would 2 projects share the same library? Seems like a pretty stupid idea that opens you up to a ton of issues, so what, you can save 200kb on you hard drive?
I'm no Python expert either and yeah, from an outsider's perspective it seems needlessly confusing. easy_install that's never been easy, pip that should absolutely be put on a Performance Improvement Plan, and now this venv nonsense.
You can criticize javascript's ridiculous dependencies all you want (left-pad?), but one thing that they absolutely got right is how to manage them. Everything's in node_modules and that's it. Yeah, you might get eleven copies of left-pad on your system, but you know what you NEVER get? Version conflicts between projects you're working on.
I'm not from the US and my Lemmy feed has been absolutely FLOODED with US political news for MONTHS. Yesterday's vote was the bushel that broke the camel's back, and I definitely understand non-political communities not wanting to be even more flooded with US politics than they already are.
Go complain about your broken country in politics-oriented communities, please, and let us talk about other, less despair-inducing subjects.
My grandmother used to have one. I never realized how it worked before that video, but I was always fascinated by the fact that the bread would lower itself
I've always wondered if vegetables from a farm that uses horse-drawn tills instead of tractors would be vegan... It's a real question, but everyone I ask thinks that I'm trolling.
I am one. I'm a pretty weak monarchist, though, it's just that I look south and I'm glad that there's a "higher level" looking over our politicians. Even if the GG nominations aren't always ideal, at least in theory they aren't beholden to popular opinion. The fact that they're nominated and not elected ensures that they don't have the legitimacy to push their own agenda either. So it's a powerful position, but mostly symbolically and there would be a lot of backlash if some ambitious GG tried to use this power for anything other than extreme cases.
In my opinion, this is partly why our politics haven't yet devolved to the point of getting a Donald Trump. You can say what you want about Trudeau, but at least the government doesn't shut down every so often just because they can't agree on a budget.
Enel is currently doing exactly that with their electric car chargers (the Juicebox), they've decided to pull out from the North American market and just shut down the servers. Like WTF, at least open-source the thing...
The store nearest me will deliver whatever you want for a $30 flat rate. I have a minivan so I can still carry a lot of stuff myself but for that price it lets me avoid messing with removing my seats so it's worth it
Funnily enough, in my town there used to be a Future Shop, and then a Best Buy sprung up in the new commercial district, but apparently couldn't compete because it closed 2 years later. Then about a year later Best Buy bought Future Shop and they re-branded the existing Future Shop to Best Buy.
My firefighter neighbour told me that the procedure now is just to let them burn, like they do with gasoline fires. They make sure it doesn't spread, but they won't try to extinguish it because it'd take 10-12 hours and thousands of gallons. By just letting it burn they're done in an hour with a few hundred gallons.
Hay is basically cut grass, straw is the part leftover from harvesting wheat and taking the seeds. Both are baled, but they're used for different things. Hay is food for any animals that eat grass like horses and cows, buy straw is not edible so it's used as bedding.
For self-hosting purposes, Docker = lightweight disposable VMs that are configured via docker-compose.yml. All important data should be in "volumes", which are just shared folders between the host and the container.
The end result is that you can delete and re-create containers at any time and they should just pick up where they left off from the data that's in these volumes.
Each individual published image has some paths they want to use for that; everything is usually specified in their example docker-compose files.
If you're not a dev, don't even try to understand Dockerfiles, it's not for you.
