Execs know teachers are doing it because of internal drive to teach and not for the pay and they take advantage of it in absolutely every way they can.

If teachers want useful posters on the wall, gotta pay for it. If teachers want students to not have to share a worksheet 3:1, teachers will pay for it. It’s incredible not only how much they do for free, but how much they pay out of pocket for the “privilege”

Sorry, not 100% sure what you mean “converting its spec”

If you mean take an existing docker and move it to a standard installation, that would depend on what all is needed. Some installations include a ton of other dockers with databases and such and you’d basically need to move them all independently and ensure the programs talk to each other properly.

For others, it’s be as simple as making sure the contents of your original docker data folder is in the right place when you launch the app and you’re done.

Unless you’re downloading a prebuilt LXC, you’d still have to do all the manual install yourself.

If you do download a prebuilt one, then you’ll need to do the updating yourself, like you would a normal application, including ensuring you keep dependencies up to date and all that.

Both have their pros and cons and I use each depending on what I’m doing (and basically all of my dockers are running in their own LXC containers, which I find to be the best of both worlds).

FWIW, I don’t download any prebuilt LXC anymore other than the base ‘Ubuntu’ or ‘Debian’ ones … the ones in ProxMox that have the prebuilt apps were a pain to update for me, especially since I had no idea how they were actually installed and most of the times they didn’t have package manager installations or curl installed and it was just way more trouble than it was worth.

ProxMox does now have a built in containerized docker implementation that will use an LXC and you can just provide it the docker package details, but, it’s still in beta and I don’t know that it’s ready to be depended on yet.

It’s like on my old Nvidia SHIELD, an update rolled in and all of a sudden there are ads on the homepage. Some people were ok with TV/movie ads being on a TV/movie device, but, why the hell would I want ads for content only available on services that I don’t have? If they’d at least only given me ads for the services it knew I was subscribed to, I would have at least been less pissed off since it could have been useful.

Reached out to Nvidia and they say there isn’t anything they can do, it’s built that way by Google. By no means do I just blindly accept that that was accurate, but, it’s still bullshit that with a basic update all of a sudden the nature of my device was completely changed (imo) and I’m expected to just suck it up or work around it with 3rd party launchers that weren’t as polished.

Dunno if it’s gotten better/worse in the last couple years, mine died and I elected to not replace it with another Android device.

Is this you? If so, my wife wonders what camera and software you used!

“We interviewed ourselves and we all agree that we’re great!” –DNC, apparently

Right‽ I don’t think anyone expected spinners to outlast SATA SSDs!

Agreed, they’re not supposed to be laws, they’re supposed (as far as I understand it anyways) to essentially be “as the head of the Executive branch, here is how I want my underlings to handle/interpret this particular thing that the Executive branch already has authority over” … it really doesn’t make sense that they’d last any longer than that particular Presidents term(s).

And even if they did, well, what they ACTUALLY meant was that he should do that since the usage of the word “shouldn’t” was different back then.

I use Weechat with Glowing Bear as a webui frontend for it, which is pretty convenient.

They’ve got a novella in the same universe too!

He is a federal employee, no?

I think he just assumes other people are as irresponsible with the nations purse as he is.

Funny how that is only a thing when they’re running a “practically a Republican” ‘Democrat’ and not when someone who’s actually a leftist starts getting some approval.

Realistically, the banks will start offering longer loans, would be my expectation.

If you thought 6 year loans were already too long, wait til you start seeing 8-10 year long ones for new vehicles!

An Amendment takes 2/3 of Congress to approve though, not just a majority.

I can imagine plenty of Dems in Congress would say “fuck it, let’s try Obama again” though and roll the dice on approving it :-/

In my experience, Zoomers largely lack a lot of computer skills (specifically in troubleshooting), but, for me the huge difference between them and the older folks has been that the older folks will say things like “I’m just not a computer person ::laugh::” and refuse to be shown how to do anything whereas the Zoomer just doesn’t know, yet, but are more than willing to learn.

ETA: NOTE: that’s just the generalized trend … some of the most knowledgeable technical people I’ve met are Boomers and some of the best computer techs I’ve worked with have been Zoomers.

Yeah, my problem with it is that it’s always something. I’ve been giving it a go about once a year since they forked from Emby and everytime something has made me drop it.

If I’m having problems with it the handful of times I go to watch something using it, the people I share with DEFINITELY would and now I have to handle their auth crap myself as well.

I’ll probably prioritize just keeping a server going side by side now for a lot longer than a month or two at a time and try to find solutions to my problems. it’s never really been a priority before since Plex worked, but the writing has been on the wall for a while now that the enshittification is in full swing and now I need to make sure I’m ahead of it.

Blah, this sucks.

It’ll still be the fault of Democrats and the Trans/DEI agenda for burning all the money.

If their supporters were capable of logical thought they wouldn’t be their supporters (not saying they’d be Dems, but they definitely wouldn’t be supporting these fucks).

A child dying is going to make them double down, honestly. At this point they will REALLY refuse to acknowledge that the kids death was 100% their fault since taking accountability is not something these people are willing to do

+1, definitely recommend VaultWarden and a VPN
