Went from OpenSUSE way back then, moved to Ubuntu for a while, then when I decided to finally switch totally to Linux, I went with Arch. Last December I migrated to CachyOS and I really like it. I remove a bunch of stuff on installation and I install no DE/WM as I prefer to bring my own config, but as a base, it's solid and has some stuff already configured that I don't have to do, like btrfs snapshots for example.
It's a long time crusade from RFK. No need to short the stock or anything. RFK is just applying his dogma instead of real science and since he believes in bullshit, he will try to do everything he can to shut down science in favour of his beliefs. At this point the question is out on how many millions of deaths he will be responsible for with his policies, but it sure will be in the millions. He's an agent of death.
This happens in some part of downtown here, mainly the business district. It's dead during any part of the day other than noon on weekdays. The reason isn't high fees, it's just that it's a boring part of the city center where there's nothing to do and it's very very car focused. Not a lot of interesting places can sustain by catering to cars. Every other part that isn't infested with cars is vibrant with life at any time of day. Raising parking fees, removing parking and removing car trafic has the opposite effect : it makes it so that the city center stops suffocating under cars.
Unfortunately, the idea of the city center being sustained by suburbs with cars is just a myth. It's mostly strangled by them in most north american cities. It can sustain on it's own by catering to the population that lives in them or close by. And if there's not enough population, densify. A focus on active transportation and public transit is the way to go.
When the US was just helping them (even though they could have done much more), it showed the world that the US and it's allies were unified and willing to defend. That was way more terrifying for any opposing power... Now any opposing power are laughing at what they see about the US. They are now even less afraid than they have ever been since the end of the 2nd world war.
Even the US miraculously elect a acompetent leader for the next president, everyone know they can just wait for the next dumb guy to come in and wreck things up. They've had multiple now, each one dumber than the last, I don't believe Trump is the worst, we can't see the future.
Yes I agree, Carney is just the latest one. We've been electing people that are dismantling everything for decades. The worst part isn't the federal, it's the provincial governments as they are the one who are in charge of most of our social programs. Here in Québec, they've been dismantling health care, social assistance program, infrastructures, education, child care and even one of the thing we're most proud of Hydro-Quebec. Everything so slowly that most of the people thinks its because of the unions or shit like that.
It's maddening to see people complaining about the decay of everything then turn around and elect the same type of people again that brought us there, but in another branding. And the only thing they will say is that they can't elect the alternative as they wear a hoodie... So stupid.
Like my parents, like everyone they were complaining of the last liberal government (which is akin to a conservative party that likes immigrants), so they wanted change. What did they do? They voted for the CAQ which is filled with conservatives and old boomers. The exact same type of people. Now they act surprised as they are not satisfied with them anymore, for the exact same reasons again. Next time they will probably vote for the PQ which has made a turn towards fascistic rethoric. The only alternative is QS, but a few members are anti-capitalists so they are now intelligible in their eyes. Oh and a member one time used to wear hoodies in parliament, that was such news worthy...
We're a bit luckier than in the US as we do have alternatives that are possible to elect, but most people are too dumb to give them a chance. Doesn't help that the whole media apparatus are for the statu quo and demonize the alternatives every chance they can.
Yes it's what's happening here in Canada and it's sickening. But it looks like it's better to blame the left for no reason, so why vote for them? Better keep slowly dismantling everything we collectively built instead!
I work per stack. Each stack can have multiple services/containers. So one db per stack. I usually work with the compose file provided by the app I want to run and they usually provide their database container in those. My persistent data for a stack is in a single folder for every services. For backup, I only have to backup the compose and environment files and also the persistent folder and that's it. Every stack is independent from each other so it's easier to move them from a server to another if I want to use more than one server.
I used to use only one db container for all db. It worked well, until I had a data corruption issue. I had to rollback from a backup for all services that used this db. Then I moved to 1 db per stack and it happened again, but this time, only that stack was impacted, so no big deal. Just did a rollback and everything was fine.
Any government related communication like related to healthcare, driving licence, passport, etc. Insurances still send the physical contract by mail. Financial institutions also send by mail important documents. Most of these could be done electronically, but they are not.
The main issue is that our mail is polluted by all sorts of garbage publicity from different companies. Those should cost way way more to do. That way, we can reduce the need for evey mail delivery person to go to each door like they do now.
Looks like my address will be converted and having known both systems, I much prefer having a mail delivery person come to my home. It's a more personalized relation and he cares about us. It's just not the same with a community mailbox.
Received mine 10 days ago. Love it. Used to have a time steel that I drowned and a time. Last few months I found my pebble time again and wore it again in anticipation. The pebble time 2 is much better in every way. Ive been using the home assistant voice assistant more because of it. Voice recognition in french isn't perfect, but still good.
I wouldn't say they are for everyone. Personally, I love them. Once I've learned about them, I just saw a better/faster way to use my computer. I use a dynamic tiling window manager, that way I just don't have to think about placing windows, they are placed automatically in a pattern I want. They also can be quite lightweight.
There are many types of window managers, manual tiling, dynamic tiling, scrolling. I even saw a mouse focused WM at some point. In the dynamic tiling there are even more subdivision with the different layouts offered or the different way workspaces are.
I tried a few on X11 before chosing qtile, then moved to Wayland, tried sway, but was more into hyprland which is arguably the most popular one on Wayland. Now I have Niri on my laptop and Mangowm on my desktop. Mango is by far my favourite now. It combines dynamic tiling and scrolling. There are even plans to add manual tiling too. A jack of all trade.
I have a surface go 3 and a surface pro 7. The first running cachyos, the second running arch. Both do run fine, but the pro 7 isn't used much anymore. It used to do BSOD on Windows and on linux it just kernel freezes. Still, linux was a much better experience, except for the camera. The main issue with surfaces is the hardware. Highly prone to failure and not really repairable. I love the form factor as I prefer to use a split ergo keyboard, so a laptop keyboard isn't useful to me, but I wouldn't buy another as they aren't good products long term imo.
I often had to go to the registry on Windows and the registry is way less user friendly than modifying files on Linux. When we say that we have to use the terminal for more complicated things on Linux, it's usually just modifying files that are well commented so you know exactly what you're doing. If you can read of course which isn't always a given.
For sure there are scripts and 3rd party apps that can modify the registry, but you can have the same thing on Linux too.
And today with how advanced KDE and Gnome are, the user needs to go less and less in the files. Almost everything I do is in the home folder too. I require root less and less, mainly to install packages.
I think it mainly comes down with what users are used to. People are used to the quirks of Windows, so Linux becomes scary and hard. If it was the other way around, Windows would be considered to be complicated. That's my take.
By curiosity, since you're already using Traefik and Pocket ID, what does Tinyauth provide? Traefik can already do forward auth through a plugin. It redirect to picket ID directly
To manage my docker containers I migrated from and to multiple tools. I started directly with Unraid with individual containers. Then I discovered docker compose and stacks. So I migrated to portainer. Splitting the postgres and mariadb databases were the worst thing in this. Then I tried dockge, so migrated from portainer to that. It lacked some portainer functionality, but was fine for a short while.
Finally I discovered Komodo and migrated to that as it's FOSS. Now I'm only on Komodo, I have no server limit (5 on portainer), had all the functionality of portainer and more. It is my go-to docker manager and the one I recommend to everyone. The only "issue" is that you need to write the name of the stack and click confirm twice if you want to redeploy, restart, stop, destroy. Or you have to click confirm twice after saving when you edit your files. Not much of an issue and it can also protect from accidental clicks. My next step will be to migrate my stacks compose and env files from UI defined to files on the server that I can sync.
I personally like combining both on desktop. Scrolling for web and occasional file browser or terminal, tiling for coding and ricing, tiling for messaging apps, etc. It depends on the need. That's why I went with MangoWC. I keep niri for my laptop though (where I also don't want blur anyway).
That is cool. I use dcli which is quite nice to use and easily manages dotfiles and scripts. I see you've added post install hooks which would allow to manage dotfiles for example.
I really like to use a declarative package manager on a different distro than NixOS. My current install is managed entirely by that tool with specific scripts that modify some config files like fstab for instance.

Are you sure about chaotic? I removed it as I thought it wasn't really checked as I read in a comment here.

Trump is just a puppet.

Yeah I don't want to see the next guy...

Of course, what we're seeing here is a strategic realignment of Taiwan as the US looks more and more unreliable. I might be wrong, but it's my take.
What made the US very strong is eroding very fast before our eyes.
Yes, I do this quite often. There's a thing called bridges that even those cars need.
The thing with this image is that a single bus or 2 would clear this. There is not a lot of people in this image.
