Why do you need FUR in GREECE and ITALY of all the countries in the EU? 🙄

I use Podman on my desktop, but only for that single container (I need Microsoft SQL Server for work). I know they are 99% compatible, including CLI syntax, but in that 1% cases things might break and thus https://selfhosting.sh/ is recommending to stick to Docker for newbies, because almost all tutorials are written for Docker. I don’t know, I might try with Podman, however I don’t really need a steeper learning curve if whatever setup guide for some service that I’m using is not compatible with Podman.

Ok, I will keep that in mind. I’m just wary of what you said earlier:

You can fuck up both Ubuntu and Debian’s upgrades by adding a lot of 3rd-party repos because apt doesn’t safeguard against external repos interfering with the core repos’ dependency graph.

You’re not the first person to tell me not to add too many external repositories on Debian for the same reason.

Maybe I don’t need the new features :)

So the trick is to keep the OS minimal, install only Docker from its repo and install anything else in Docker containers.

Why from Docker’s repo and not from Debian’s? I just did a quick apt search docker and I see docker.io and docker-cli.

So, theoretically, I could run Proxmox on the VPS if it’s running Debian? I read that Proxmox requires a lot of RAM and VPSes are too expensive in that regard. But I might run Proxmox at home, I have a beefy PC with 64GB of RAM, except it doesn’t turn on right now (something died, either the PSU or the motherboard, I still need to have it diagnosed).

One thing I read about is that Ubuntu provides unattended updates, so it can automatically update packages and restart the server (that seems a bit too far ;) ). It’s probably possible on Debian but not out of the box.

I think there are two types of people who care. Collectors and resellers / buyers of used copies.

I play a mix of games, some digital and some physical. I don’t buy used copies (I, perhaps naively, believe that I support the developers by purchasing new copies — and by “support” I mean they can make more games that I like), but I sell the games that I have finished (well, most of them). I think I buy/play more digital games than physical, part of the reason is PS Plus / PS Portal.

However, I don’t like that Sony wants to abandon physical media. I believe customers should have a choice. Also, the digital versions are almost always more expensive than physical, and for years they’ve been misleading us into believing that digital distribution is supposed to be cheaper. Yeah, right.

If Sony controls all means of distribution, by cutting off physical media, they will further increase prices for games and subscriptions, because why not. Consumers will have no choice if they still want to play on their PlayStation.

I’m playing Xenoblade Chronicles X on Switch 2. Only on Chapter 4. It took me a few hours of patiently waiting for RNG to drop White Cometite for Lin’s affinity quest. I read that many people were stuck on that. :) Fortunately, I was able to explore some other areas and do some simple tasks in the meantime.

That’s on Nintendo front, on my Steam Deck I’m playing AI: The Somnium Files off which I bounced some time ago, but it stuck in my mind and I gave it another go and it clicked this time. Different mindset and expectations, I guess.

Maybe OP is playing it off a cassette player like on C-64 ;)

The cheapest :P SAGUARO. I actually thought it was Spanish and only on the packaging I saw it’s a Chinese product. I just want to try it out and be able to trash it if I don’t like them, didn’t want to risk with something more expensive. I know that it’s possible that more expensive shoes might be a better fit but still.

My personal GOTY 2025. Great game!

Aw, and here I thought it was about barefoot shoes… Just bought my first pair after thinking about it for a few years.

As a Linux noob I like your oneliner but I agree with @solxix@pawb.social

A more approachable way to do that would be to use wget and then manually run apt install with the downloaded file. That’s what I’ve been doing. :) Yours is “magic” ;)

What kind of sensitive data do they collect, exactly? The article doesn’t mention it. I heard about those rules (but no specifics) a couple years ago which actually pushed down Spain on my to-go list.

Like KDE Connect which uses only the local network.

It was my personal GOTY 2025. Fantastic game. I actually liked it more than Bloober’s SH2R because of the setting, visual presentation, overall mood and music. I didn’t hate the combat, either.

but these days im considering a different bank entirely that doesnt require an app in the first place

For me, it’s not that some banks require a mobile app, because they don’t. Why I like to use the mobile banking apps is because of PUSH notifications for transactions and for approval (like 3DS). I could use the mobile websites, but then I would need to drop down to SMS confirmation which is less convenient and less secure as well.

My main issue with BotW is that there are no dungeons. Shrines are just small random puzzle games. Doing a dungeon in Zelda is part of the quest, doing shrines is doing puzzles for the sake of it to get points (Orbs) to advance your character with some numbers and bars. Only the Divine Beasts resemble traditional Zelda dungeons to some extent.

This was my first Zelda game. I didn’t read any reviews, I just played it. Afterwards I learned that not everybody loves it, but I do. Being the first, I guess it will always be the best Zelda game to me. I… don’t like BotW. I spent a few dozen hours in it over the past few years and have not finished it. I prefer the traditional structure of Zelda games.
