    For your use case, consider it to be a packaging format (like AppImage, Flatpak, Deb, RPM, etc.) that includes all the dependencies (including services, not just libraries) for the app in question.

    Should I change this?

    If it’s not broken don’t fix it.

    Use Podman (my preferred - the SystemD approach is awesome), containerd, or Incus. Docker is a graveyard of half-finished pet projects that have no reason for existing. Podman has a Docker-compatible socket, so 100% of Docker tooling will work with it.




  • I’m 110% with you here. Debian have make it much more difficult to break your system, so it should be stack sponge proof going forward. I still wouldn’t put it past Linus to fuck it up some other way (you know, maybe he’ll curl HTML into bash instead of a script), and he’ll still stand his ground and blame the world. And then later give one of his non-apology apologies.

    I used to be a huge fan.



  • Linus is dunning-kruger crystallized and refined. He routinely talks authoritatively about subjects he knows little about. His qubit analogy is particularly wrong and annoying, and he doesn’t stop bringing it up.

    Either way, more idiot filters have been installed in front of that and you’ll have to do way more work (likely learning something in the process) to fuck your system up like that.







  • A $70 price tag is usually the cherry on top, too.

    Anything over $45 is nearly always a giant red flag. It needs 95% on steam for me to consider it. I have found $35 to be a good ballpark that hits games with focused/enjoyable complexity, without the nonsense that comes at higher prices/AAA. You don’t even need to consider value for money: they’re simply better than more expensive games (most of the time).
