Here’s Ed for you

I’ve heard of podman quite a bit but never tried it.

Is it truly free and open source?

Does it run only in Linux?

Unlucky I’d say.

I haven’t touched Word in almost a decade because I’ve been fortunate to work in companies that don’t pay for Microsoft suite, instead using Google suite. And I’ll tell you, not only I need to use it very very little but also it’s much easier to get things done than Microsoft products.

What do I use daily? Slack and confluence. But we don’t need to talk about those, do we?

Gen alpha beta whatever will need those Microsoft skills when they enter workforce in corporations full of genz, because that’s pervasive cyber tools in those pieces. You can talk all you want about libre Office, but that’s not what man child ceo of big companies do, because they’re affairs of their man child friends peer pressure. Hive mentality.

With all the shortcomings, you’re going to be complaining about the definition of “from scratch”…

Just curious, what’s your definition of it, when it’s a person writing code.

Aw do they also hand out unicorns for Xmas?

Some corporations do that, most don’t even if they’re trying to, because incompetence.

I liked both this and the following article.

Pretty cool seeing everything it takes to have a minimalist Linux to boot, and I finally saw how to get started with strace that I’ve been postponing for like half a year.

Wait what? How?

Not exactly since your VPN could be in a country that doesn’t give a shit about the laws in your country .

This, but I’d use separate browsers to keep seperate digital fingerprints. Otherwise your ad trackers would know it’s the exact same person going to site a directly and site b indirectly.

Also worth noting that Facebook has a back door on its mobile app, that keep listening on some port. When you use certain apps with meta code ( could be a newspaper that monetizes with Facebook ads ) or websites with meta code ( same “newspaper”), those apps/websites send your ad tracker id directly to Facebook app through that port. This de-anonimizes the shit out of your “anonymous” ad IDs. Other techniques rely on lots of data points and some degree of guessing, but this ways it’s mercilessly effective and accurate.

And takes more resources than a tab because it doesn’t share them, it has its own copy.

Functionally identical to running it on browser, but no match for true speed and experience of desktop app.

I use them but I’d prefer true options.

Look at it this way, if you run all pws with same browser you’re not increasing the memory footprint, but if it’s electron you do because you have multiple copies of electron in your disk and your memory.

And there’s more electron apps out there than you know. Slack, visual studio and Spotify, apparently, included.

The what ads???

I gave up on native client for a couple things. So instead of downloading someone else’s electron packaging I use the web app shortcut using Firefox to fake that qobuz is an actual app.

It’s a thing on Linux Mint, not sure about your distro. You can choose icon, and make location bar visible or not. No tabs, it doesn’t get mixed with other Firefox tabs, and that is it.

Oh I didn’t know ostree was used by rpm, I thought it was made from scratch from the flatpak project just like bwrap is.

Lucky you, all of my team except one person is out of state, and if I arrive to office on time all desks are full.

Needs more crayons. That’s the only thing that can keep the useless people busy so we can get shit done.

Does that stand for SQL WTF?

How far does it need to go to be a major incident?

I’m going to laugh in Java, where this has always been possible and reliable. Not like ai reliable, but expert reliable. Because of static types.
