I’m commenting on this again because I actually tried this tonight. The info is pretty sparse. I know it’s an alternate install method, but in bottles there’s a lot of variables.

Even just knowing which runner was used in testing would help a ton, as there are quite a few, and each has tons of versions.

They’re counting on people being complacent and just whitelisting.

The problem is, they’re probably right to try the tactic too. People need those dopamine hits.

Thanks!

The Linux install method link on that page leads to a page not found

On my main server: I have my SSD RAID1 ZFS snapshots of my container appdata, VM VHDs and docker image, that is also backed up as a full backup once per night to the RAID10 array, then rsynced to the backup server which then is uploaded to the cloud.

The data on the RAID is backups, repos or media that I’ve deposited there for an extra copy it for serving via Plex/Jellyfin. I have extra copies of the data, and if I were to lose the array totally, I wouldn’t be pleased, but my personal pictures/videos wouldn’t be in danger.

I run two back up servers, which both upload to the cloud. One of which takes bare metal images of all my computers (sans servers bulk drives), the other which takes live folders.

This is more due to convenience so that I can pull a bare metal image to restore a device, or easily go find a file with versioning online if necessary on both accounts.

As a wise man said, you can never have too many backups.

This is news, yes, especially considering that Apple made a deal with the devil considering its new self-reported bloom as privacy focused.

But news headlines are acting like Apple just said this today, and that is complete headline bait.

If not, we can expect to see legal channels raising their prices again to cover the losses caused by piracy.

And with the last paragraph the whole article loses its legitimacy as propaganda. I mean I should have expected as much considering the source, but I still wanted to see how well researched it was.

No, this is a case where people are rebelling against a broken system, that didn’t need to be broken in it’s mostly recovered state.

No, the general paying public shouldn’t shame pirates for their actions, they should shame the companies for their actions that have driven them to this. Companies aren’t your friends, they don’t care about you, they just want your money.

Beeper is great but you have no idea what they’re doing with your data.

This is work, and I still think there’s a niche between the two, with an assembled docker rather than ansible playbook, that is going to be the one that takes off.

Why in the pissity-fuck would I take life advice from Google, Google applications or an AI trained by Google.

That is so far out of the question for what I find reasonable

Because retailers took advantage of inflation to push profits even higher, especially one specific retailer who has a vertical monopoly in the grocery sector, of which they’ve been caught and convicted of using to fix the prices of bread in the past.

They’re still high because food is a staple, a necessity. Competition can’t spin up in several months. And competition certainly can’t compete with this existing farm to grocer system.

These prices are never coming down. They’d keep going higher if people weren’t so angry they were stealing instead.

The best protest is to not shop there.

I know. Sounds stupid.

Farmers stands. Farm to table markets. Farmer’s markets.

Call farms and see if you can place orders. They need larger orders? Start ordering with friends, neighbours, family.

This stuff is grown in our backyard, and we are paying for some guy to buy it to sell to some other guy for a huge mark up so we can pay even more for no reason.
