Fair enough.

Ça sera bientôt les vacances!

En effet. Bravo!

I get your meaning, but there are other "unpolluted" distros where the theming and arbitrary package selection is kept at a minimum. Debian comes to mind.

In fact, Fedora does take liberties with non-free drivers and configs for the sake of a sane and usable quality of life.

I'm not trying to start a pissing contest here, just highlighting that there's a Linux for everyone, and that is the great thing about Linux.

I grew up en français, albeit in Canada. In our informatique classes, we had CSA standard layout keyboards (IBM, not Microsoft).

It's essentially a QWERTY keyboard with built-in compose key modifier and silkscreened characters on the board for accented characters (capitals included). Not too bad to learn on, and considering that QWERTY would be so prevalent in my life, I think it's a good compromise.

When I was in uni in the 90s and finally ran across an AZERTY keyboard, I literally couldn't use it. Not only is layout different, but the character mod sequence makes no ergonomic sense to me.

_{NB: fun fact, y a pas de mots qui commencent en C cédille. C'est pas pour dire qu'on a pas besoin de majuscules cédillées. :)}

NBB: ¤ is an end-of-cell marker, introduced at the advent of word processors to distinguish newline and carriage returns from the ends of cells in tables. Not sure if it had a meaning before then, but my memory is saying it had something to do with sub-paragraphs.

What do you mean by "least polluted"?

I'm not baiting you, I don't grok what you mean.

Docker seems to have gained more ground than LXC

They aren't really competing in the same space. LXC is more comparable to jails or openvz in that they provide an os layer, Docker does not.

I recently saw docker described in a web comic where some poor dev was bemoaning that his software "worked on his machine", and his teacher says "then we'll ship your machine", meaning Docker sets up a software environment for a project to work, nothing more.

Docker was at first based on lxc, but has since moved to its own libcontainer.

but in modern form, it could have also provided important competition to Amazon.

No, it couldn't.

Hbc sold most of its real estate holdings by the 60s and 70s. It was already dead by the 80s when they couldn't adapt to malls, it was even more dead in the 90s when it refused to ditch the "department store" approach.

By the time private equity got hold of it in 2008, there was almost nothing left.

What... Is everything profit to you?

Yeah, so do I. So does everyone. That's not what I meant by naive.

You want housing prices to burn, however, the causes of housing price crashes that hard are ones that make housing undesirable; war, famine, disease, street violence, natural disaster, etc. A high bar for access to housing is definitely bad, but those things are worse.

The housing market crisis is not simply corporations keeping real estate out of the hands of common folks, that is the natural progression of free markets with insufficient regulation. It marks the end of the 20th century boom for western society. To equalize access to housing correctly will take time, no matter the method implemented, economic or cultural.

You actually took the time to mask how bitter you are about not having a ladder to climb, awkwardly try to misdirect the reader into your supposed sympathy for the plight of a renter, and somehow that became mud-slinging at Mark Carney. The naive part is you thinking no one would figure out what you are doing.

I suppose you have someone in mind who can crush this housing problem "better than Mark Carney"? Grow up.

Bro...

But frankly, this isn't what I wanted to hear. I wanted to hear that prices are going to plummet.

So you are upset because fixing a national housing crisis won't happen the way you want it to?

Your article is naive.

You're saying law enforcement can easily fingerprint you?

Yes. The days of Maltego are behind us, law enforcement now just file requests directly with Google.

You have a few questions here, which ones do you want answered?

To configure the camera, you should have defined it in the config. That you don't know this means you should go back to the docs and read the setup section start to end.

I write my frigate clips to an NFS share. I mount it on the host and bind Mount the path in my container. You can also mount NFS directly in a container, but it comes with extra steps.

LXC is not a proxmox-specific thing. You can run lxc containers on almost any Linux and you can manage multiple containers with other software (lxd, incus, etc). At one time, docker was based on lxc, but both docker and lxc have evolved significantly since then.

LXC and docker are indeed similar, but one aims to provide an OS-level environment and the other simply a software environment.

Really? You think it's the "last note taking app" comment in the description?

You don't think maybe it's the shoehorned AI into a project that has no real plan for how it is implemented?

Or maybe it's not the ai implementation, maybe it's the fact that "respects your privacy" is incompatible with openai's terms of use (openai can train on your notes if you supply them)?

I want to believe you have given this some thought, but for someone with as long a sea log as yours, you seem to have forgotten what happened when we "gave it time to sort itself out" for other services that are now completely entrenched in our lives and have made them worse for it.

• apps for everything
• not raising more complaint about the erosion of our privacy by private corporations
• not defending open standards like PDF and now PDFs are a security and compatibility nightmare
• "hey, maybe subscription models can be applied to printer ink"
• etc, ad nauseum

AI itself is fine, and its been used for good (solving protein folding).

But AI in just about everything else is awful. It wastes energy and water. It is actively making people dumber. I'm fighting a losing battle at work with fools who wholesale believe AI answers on any question and others who literally vibe code.

If you truly believe ai is going to be better in the long run, you have not been paying attention to the last 30 years of technology becoming trash.

Stop getting info from yt "infosec" channels.

No one uses single exit-entry gateways in tor anymore, and the widespread use of tor bridges, split exits and vpn (now that they're quite fast) means it's much easier for law enforcement to fingerprint traffic rather than sit and wait for someone to tilt their hand and reveal an exit node that will have moved in an hour anyway.

Think about it: if criminals were successfully moving illicit goods and hiding the comms, you think you would hear about it on YouTube, of all places?

Yes, but with an explanation.

You don't necessarily need coding skills to "audit", you can get q sense of the general state of things by simply reading the docs.

The docs are a good starting point to understand if there will be any issues from weird licensing, whether the author cares enough to keep the project going, etc. Also serious, repeated or chronic issues should be noted in the docs if its something the author cares about.

And remember, even if you do have a background in the coding language, the project might not be built in a style you like or agree with.

I'm pretty proficient at bash scripting, and I found the proxmox helper scripts a spaghetti mess of interdependent scripts that were simply a nightmare to follow for any particular install.

I think the overall message is do your best within your abilities.

In BC it is dealt with swiftly and with heft: immediate 10k fine (up to $100k), you are on the hook for expenses caused by the drone interference, and you have to go defend yourself against spending a year in jail.

I went through this about 6 months ago.

Just build playbooks from basic to specific. I did so in three parts:

1. Container creation
2. Basic settings common to all my hosts
3. Specific service config & software

Ansible assumes you have a hierarchy of roles to apply for each service, so layering playbooks this way should help

Pwas aren't terrible. Chrome made pwas terrible.

Meh, I only have gigabit and my content lives on an NFS share. It's been fine for streaming and everything else.
