Hey all, it's winter
So this is me sending vibes of love and kindness and vitamin d your way
And reminding you that if you have vitamin d in the house you can take it during the winter and it might help. Or if you have a full spectrum light bulb that can help even more ❤️
Now that December is over, it always hits me harder too, so take care and stay safe and know I'm wishing you the best

Kubernetes is the worst thing that ever happened to docker
Docker is the worst thing to ever happen to LXC

LXC is just the linux container thing - it's a thing docker wraps
Basically LXC is jails to docker's iocage if you know what that is (you being a BSD person instead of a Linux person I assume the different knowledge base is there, but I dunno)

I do containers under protest only, and mostly spawn VMs and chroot processes - Becky just asked the question "what is docker"

2) Don't know what to call "a person I work with a lot"
@silverwizard It's a saluting emoji: emojipedia.org/saluting-face/
It's a joke I learned in How I Met Your Mother, every time someone uses either "major" or "general" you salute while repeating the hypothetical officer name.

I use Discord as a concession to group chats for those that refuse to use XMPP or Delta Chat
I use Slack because work and it's not really my choice
Oh, they can refuse to use DeltaChat by just... not using DeltaChat and only doing email - and me not wanting to be a jerk - since DeltaChat does a lot of things like "sending Message Read notifs" and stuff, which is real bad.
But also - my sister isn't using it so she just gets spammed by my family group chat and keeps up via email. But DeltaChat is kinda too feature creeped to be a good experience out-of-app
Been watching Forever Knight (a vampire show from the 90s about how cops are perfect, especially when they are attacking queer people, that a bunch of people have told me is really good, and I'm not feeling it, but keeping watching since possibly first season blues...)
And the beginning of every episode they're like "He wants to emerge from his World of Darkness" in the least trademark infringing way possible in 1992.

uh... ummmm.... my Emby server.... ...
But it looks like Apple and Amazon have it streaming
It feels like a show that's perfect for anyone who knows what "Afters" is for in a diner at 2 am without ever getting drunk. Someone who remembers looking up pricing fangs and going "nope". And anyone remembering fighting about when to Roll Frenzy.
All of which I 100% do.
I own Kindred the Embraced on DVD!
I love the Highlander Show - the basic premise of the Immortal Western with a weird strict moral core and a focus on home and family is just so tense as a theme, it really shouldn't hold together, but somehow it just does!
I don't know Silk Stalkings... But yeah - I love what I've heard call the "90s DoGooder Show". There's a mostly normal world with a single magical thing who does good.
I feel like Buffy and then Supernatural really changed that entire genre to make it not really the specific thing it is. But you can super see Arrow or The Flash in Forever Knight, and that connection is fun.
There's a Live Action Witchblade show which uh... confounds me but definitely is on my to-watch list.
Unfortunately 2 kids mean I watch shows at approximately 1 episode/week.
One day we will stop positing technical workarounds to "evil administrator" attacks.

I think there's definitely something to be said for the fact that you can't selfhost everything
Though I definitely am wondering if I can get a block of IPv6 and just host my own damn BGP because my ISP isn't doing it

Linux just .... sometimes.... forgets that computers older than a year exist doesn't it
I have a bunch of computers from 2012, completely fine computers, just don't use EFI, and devuan is freaking the fuck out and refusing to setup grub
Do you think @Becky will notice if I use FreeBSD?

I know right!
Though my ... work... tablet... (listen, it has a mechanical keyboard...) runs linux
But I am not certain about the Wacom options
Also - freebsd also failed the "boot on this thinkcentre" test

I have intense interest, but whether I actually engage with it is another problem. However, yeah, I do think I'm quite lucky as far as all things go.
I hope you get to do the things sometimes at least tho, because I get how depression can go sometimes ❤️

I think Fediverse search would be a good thing
I think that fundamentally that argument was ended when the WebIndex was created, and living in a post-WebIndex world basically means that searchability is the way that people approach problems and questions. I like the ability to find old thoughts and I like the ability to find old things. And I think that people who dislike it should have the tools to disable it (robots.txt, nobot, and post-autodeletion). But it would be real nice to remember something from four years ago and search it out of the memory hole.
I think about this in context of like, email. If an inbox decided "I will publish every email sent to me" I think that like, that would be fine. However, if a mail relay did that I would be suspicious as hell.
But I think that most Fediverse accounts act more like inboxes than relays. Obviously, if someone were to setup that email inbox, I would definitely think harder about sending email to it than to my friends. And I think that that change is probably the core of the tension where people worry about the fediverse.
I don't understand the people who dislike a generic search tools - and their arguments have never persuaded me - I don't know what I'm missing.

That's definitely valid
I feel like defederation is the solution to that though - unless, of course, Mastodon.social existed

Ug, 2023 feels like it'll be the year of the Linux desktop
Still stuck on Linux for good Steam and GPU support for my gaming computer, and my Surface Tablets I'm using as a portable device apparently have wifi issues on the BSDs, and my work computer needs Linux for the MDM
So I don't have a current BSD desktop! Just 10 VMs and a VM host

Happy New Year!
If you want to tell me, I'd love to hear about cool things that happened to people last year, whether it's completing a project, going to a new place or whatever.
Personally we discovered an outdoor amusement park for young kids, which was really fun to go to a few times, especially for their Halloween event

It's weird that WotC is putting out a VTT right around the time that they ban VTTs, and also decide to become the Fortnite of tabletop games.
Also - they're fucking stupid: eff.org/deeplinks/2023/01/bewa…

in reply to silverwizard • •Though - to be clear - a huge portion of this is sarcasm from me - because the OGL is just kinda... bad - D&D isn't the industry, D&D should die, it almost did, but 5th edition did some really scummy things to keep everyone else out, and so alienating a huge portion of the creators that are sustaining their market dominance is good - at least to me.
5th Edition really did a lot of work to destroy the thriving indie market that literally almost destroyed D&D in 2012, and now I'm hoping D&D will do it again
