Docker and the docker-compose yaml files. They’ll be invaluable. Compose files allows you to create custom networking and run multiple containers.

Super useful and what most people use to run simple docker workloads.

You don’t have to understand how to create containers, just understand how they work and the commands to use them effectively.

There is always the Network + book. I went through it in 2005, so no idea what the content is like nowadays though

Yeah, a real fall from grace. I hate what it’s become.

I just gotta say, I’m glad I don’t know what all that coffee terminology is, I’m better off not knowing.

Every day, all the time everywhere, to the point where Linux users become insufferable? Yeah…

For sure, but it’s to be expected from a listed company. The only product is investor sentiment.

I know, nothing wrong with the joke per se, it’s just the repetitiveness of the shitting on Windows thing. Lately I’ve been thinking of unsubbing to these communities because of it.

Some of these are funny and make me laugh but I really hate that this seems to be the Linux identity.

Shitting on Windows and it’s users got old years ago. I see one of these every few days, or I see it in the comments attacking other users, it’s just miserable and sad after a while.

Like we get it, windows bad, lets move on.

It really was. I like Win10 too, but not as much

The thing is that your 20 years greatly skews your perspective on what easy is compared to someone who has never used it. And I agree, it’s never been better, but for a lot of people, it just isn’t there yet.

My main issue with it is that it’s so fractured, it’s greatest strength is also it’s greatest weakness OSS often lacks standardisation and Linux is a victim of that.

Its slowly getting there, I mean I think it’s awesome that SystemD is used by so many distros, it’s some commonality between them all.

But then you get Ubuntu trying to be smart and using dash, then it breaks scripts and I want to scream. So there are those actively making it worse, lol.

No worries!

Yup, and I’ve spent hours troubleshooting dumb fucking issues on Linux servers that often end up with me just blasting it away and starting again because the further I get into it, the more shit I find broken.

Linux is stable and repeatable, that’s why it’s great for servers. But I’ve wasted way too many hours of my life troubleshooting dumb problems that shouldn’t even be problems and often I just say fuck it and rebuild it. I don’t want to do that on my desktop thanks. Especially because sometimes I do random mindless shit. Look how Linus uninstalled his UI because he didn’t know any better. The last time I uninstalled the entire UI on windows was when converting a Server 2012 machine to server core.

But I think the bottom line is, let people use what they want.

My friend only uses arch and there’s a few games we want to play together but it doesn’t work on Linux, there’s also plenty of times we have to wait while he’s troubleshooting shit when we want to play games.

He’s an SRE with about 22 years of experience. It’s not even a skill issue.

We often jokingly say “have you tried using windows?” or “this wouldn’t happen on windows” and dumb shit like that. But he uses Arch and wr all accept that and that there are some issues and the things said are in jest. He sometimes hits us with the same shit. But overall we respect that we want different things from our PCs and I do enough of this shit at work for me to want to do anything at home besides click on some UI shit and things just work.

Its okay to be different and it’s okay if you use Linux and I use windows, bashing on about how bad it is isn’t winning any friends or favor and the general toxicity with this shit puts a lot of people off of even trying Linux.

How many years have you been using Linux?

I don’t think you fully understood (my fault for a shitty explanation)

So you have the pogo pins on the back of the body of the phone, they connect to the back cover of the phone, the cover that covers the removable battery. The back cover has the coil integrated into it.

You can make the coil be removable from the back cover to reduce waste if you decide to replace the back because it’s scratched or broken.

The pogo pins are literally just to connect the wireless charging coil to the back of the phones cover when you close the phone up.

Linux is free if you don’t value your time.

Pogo pins on the back of the phone, pads on the cover with the coil, and bam, you have a removable wireless charger and a replaceable battery.

That’s… Hard. I don’t really know how to do that. I miss my old psychologist lol

8 hours in line to apply for a new identity card.

I get that. I do the same often enough. I went from an outgoing fun person to an anxious shut in that is scared of people.

I hope you find that part of yourself that you lost.

It’s insanely expensive if you don’t have family with a car. Pretty unfair tbh.
