Hopefully, when it’s all broken and nobody’s getting their social security payments, maybe some of them will wake up.

- Comment on 'For too long, Apple has operated a walled garden around its products': The EU forces Apple to open its closed system to third parties 1 week ago:
The whole point of a walled garden is to stop people (their wallets, really) leaving.
- Comment on 'For too long, Apple has operated a walled garden around its products': The EU forces Apple to open its closed system to third parties 1 week ago:
There are also those of us who like some Apple products but do not buy them because of the walled garden. The EU might improve choices for us too.

Agreed, they are and will be relentless. We’ll need to be comfortable ‘missing out’ on popular sites e.g., Lemmy instead of Reddit.

Basically, stay away from combustion exhaust. Of course there’s a scale: hydrogen = OK, wood = not good, burn pit = fucked up.

- Comment on Docker in LXC vs VM 5 weeks ago:
- I’m backing up LXCs, like I’d back up a VM. I don’t back up Docker containers, just their config and volumes.
- I don’t think anyone is doing that. We’re talking about installing Docker in LXC. One of the Proxmox rules you can live by is to not install software on the host. I don’t see the problem with installing Docker in an LXC for that reason.
- I’ll snapshot a container before running things like a dist-upgrade, or testing something that might break things. It’s very easy, so why not?
- I back up my LXC that has Docker installed because that way it’s easy to restore everything, including local volumes, to various points in time.
- Comment on Docker in LXC vs VM 1 month ago:
You can also create a single LXC for Docker and run multiple Docker containers on it. The VM argument is for security as it’s harder to escalate to the host from a VM than from an LXC.
- Comment on Docker in LXC vs VM 1 month ago:
If you do that, Docker is stuck on that host. If it’s in an LXC it can move to another host. Plus, backing up and snapshotting are easier IMO.

The amount of hours I’ve spent looking for non-plastic options for regular items is so stupid. I’m glad to have non-plastic options, so I can vote with my wallet.

I’ve used Gnucash for investment accounting and market valuation. It’s got plenty of features for tracking personal investments.
- Comment on Self-hosted Personal Finance Suggestions 1 month ago:
GnuCash will do the sort of security trade accounting you’re talking about. I don’t know how GnuCash compares to the other offerings, but it can be fully offline and has a lot of features.
- Comment on Introducing Pi-hole v6 1 month ago:
It’s extra protection, especially if you use non-browser apps on your devices it can limit tracking.

Be careful upgrading Docker versions, it has breaking changes.

Yeah, would also be nice to be able to combine multiple local markets.
- Comment on Flohmarkt - a Fediverse replacement for Facebook Marketplace 1 month ago:
Isn’t this more like the software you’d use to build whatever local (but maybe federated) site? Like, you don’t ask your friend if they’ve been on Shopify or Squarespace lately.
