I absolutely understand not liking opt-out telemetry. Do people generally not like opt-in telemetry? Is this really why the community shifted to a different project?

There are many reasons to use k8s. Managing multiple nodes is one good one. But more importantly, k8s gives you an api-driven runtime environment. It’s really not comparable to docker compose.

Yea I’m not a fan of helm either. In fact, I avoid charts when possible. But kustomize is great.

I feel the same way about docker compose. If it wasn’t already obvious, I’m biased in favor of k8s. I like and prefer that interface. But that’s just preference. If you like docker compose, great!

There’s one point where I do disagree however. There are scenarios where a local k8s cluster has a good and clear purpose. If your production environment runs on k8s, then it’s best to mirror that locally as much as possible. In fact, there are many apps that even require a k8s api to run. Plus, being able to destroy and rebuild your entire k8s cluster in 30s is wonderful for local testing.

Edit: typos

Honestly, k8s is super easy and very lightweight to run locally if you know the rights tools. There are a few good options but I prefer k3d. I can install Docker/k3d and also build a local cluster running in maybe 2 minutes. It’s excellent for local dev. Even good for production in some niche scenarios

I expect someone will start a business to remove that aftermarket

Well that’s fair. I had to look closely. It’s a ready made soup. Not just spice. I’m finally getting this post now.

Oh ok. I didn’t realize it’s specifically for soup. But also, it’s probably tasty in some soups like a carrot or butternut squash soup 🤣

I’m not following this one yet. What’s wrong with the pumpkin spice?

I use proton vpn and Firefox Focus on iOS. I’m not sure which of them is doing the heavy lifting, but I rarely see ads on my phone.

I like that Meta is fined for this bad practice. But why are they paying the state? How does this help anyone that was actually victim of the facial recognition?

I can see an argument based on how state funds help state residents. But it still doesn’t really feel right to me.

A real tangential thought: What if fines claimed by the state didn’t increase the states fund? What if those funds reduced the tax burden of residents from the bottom up?

Well that’s foreboding to say the least.

I listened to a bit of the speech to see if the context helps at all. It doesn’t. He was just asking people to go vote, which is totally fine. But that’s it. Nothing else to warrant a comment like this one. And it sure sounds like no more voting is the plan. Literally. Maybe it’s a thoughtless comment? Yikes

Have you tried The First Descendant yet? It’s pretty rough with load times and beats the cap out a graphics card. Is that considered AAA?

I think this is a side effect of sharing and discussion these events online, especially in a link aggregator like Lemmy. You can you see inconsistent views presented in multiple threads yet they feel as if you’re interacting with the same group of people.

Some people are happy about this turn of events while others are not. I expect that you’re seeing differing major opinions from separate groups of people.

lol thanks for the answer. This is the really relevant bit isn’t it? My Linux machines have also never died this badly before. But I’ve seen windows do it a number of times before this whole fiasco.

This is funny timing for me. I mentioned something related to my wife yesterday. When I was a kid, my perception of other countries was completely ridiculous. Low tech, uncivilized, impoverished, etc. compared to the USA. It took way too long for me to achieve a more realistic perspective of foreign countries at large. I’m not sure who to blame for this but the they surely belong to the previous generation or two.

What’s the user experience like there? Are you prompted to do it if the system fails to boot “happily”?

I’m familiar enough with Linux but never used an immutable distro. I recognize the technical difference between what you describe and “go delete a specific file in safe mode”. But how about the more generic statement? Is this much different from “boot in a special way and go fix the problem”? Is any easier or more difficult than what people had to do on windows?

Ya this is definitely one to maintain some skepticism about. People are criticizing the API’s security in other posts.

The EU is a large enough governing body to have a significant global impact. And I truly appreciate the progress it makes on important subjects.

However, it’s still not effective enough. Apple doesn’t allow third party app stores in countries outside the EU.

Exactly. There is a general need to destroy and rebuild a system but it is often dangerous and costly. Especially with regard to a system of laws and government. Improving the system more naturally is far more safe and more achievable at smaller scales.
