next on the docket: serfdom!

that’ll teach me to type in a hurry. I meant df, not du. Lookup man page for options

I’d be curious to see du -i to see what’s going on with inodes. Alternatively I did have an issue long time ago with docker containers, sparse files and dirty disk. Force-running fsck resolved my issues in the past.

guy who is not authorised to make foreign policy decisions travels overseas on public’s dime to… make foreign policy decisions??? So couple of obvious themes:

1. guy likes to travel with comfort on public dime
2. it’s a private bribe session
3. he’ll be asking US to kick some money his way to take over the “uncooperative” government

does anyone actually know what falls under Finland’s educational agency?

Israel (or more precisely it’s PM and his clique) is definitely interested in prolonging the war, the same as Hamas. One can’t talk of one without the other. There werr some materials floating around that at some point Israel “sponsored” Hamas the same as US sponsored middle east terrorist groups just to be attacked by them later.

Keeping state of constant war is a very lucrative endeavour - you can shatter liberties, you can subject population to virtually anything claiming “war time” and rake profits from arms trade etc. While raiding humanitarian aid warehouses etc. It’s a very dirty business. Hamas needs to be disarmed and disbanded, Netaniahu has to be deposed and persecuted, Palestine should be it’s own state and Israeli need to return what’s not really theirs. But none of the homicidal entities is willing to be persecuted thus this war will continue until one of them destroyed or reformed

tramping religious rights of locals is fine, but don’t you dare to touch christianity. Christian churches get tax exemptions etc. I’m an atheist but this is a glaring discriminatiin. You either disregard all religions or tiptoe around all of them there’s nothing in between

Incorrect. In certain areas (like mine) only grass grows very well and is very prolific chocking off any other species. Grazers make a lot more sense and a lot less impact. Including soil build-up for future crop raising.

…then turns around and gets buddy-buddy with putin? 🤔

this only holds for industrial red meat. I love it when everything gets lumped together and presented as “evidence”. Non-industrial, small scale farming actually can have reverse effect. But we don’t talk about avoiding industrial products, because… why? 100mile diet that includes sustainably raised meat (white, red blue - whatever) from local farm will have minimal impact on environment. Shall we talk about avocados in Canada or Almonds? Study lacks nuance and produces flashy headings with no substance.

looks eerily familiar: recent tariff war drama with asking price sliding from 150% down to 25% . Ask for the moon in hopes to get a pebble. They are counting on US “folding” and US just might… except US is losing grip on Europe so end result will be unlikely what kremlin wants. They have stirred up this sh#t and they will have to live with it. It’ll be an impossible sell for Baltics to leave NATO nor should they ever consider it.

Art of the deal: deal with it… 'cause I don’t care

lets hope it “sticks”. Any class in economics say “diversify your portfolio”, Canada needs just that. 10% hit is less than 90% hit if you’re dealing with multiple partners.

those are words of a politician. This is what “sells” today. We’ll need to see very specific actions to back it up. Thus far most politicians shown lack of spine and would turn on a dime at first opportunity. Canada could’ve been “divorced” from US for over a decade now when Cretien hinted at desire to move in that direction… but nope, here we are overdependant on US and thumping our chests “never again”.

My opinion is that of the two Postres is more “adult”. So if you want to"just wing it" MariaDB would work, but if you’re serious Postgres is a better choice. However Postgres also requires better understanding of you setup etc. So it’s a ROI game - what’s more important to your project, how complex your DB is, what are the requirements for availability, transaction security etc. There is no “better” or “worse” there’s “feasible” and “prohibitive” 😉

of course BRICS members would be welcoming POTUS47… he’ll ruin whatever is left of US for them

I’m not convinced what you run into is a specific podman issue. It’s a resource issue and configuration issue likely. “vanila” podman with proper rootless containers will run as much workload as machine can handle from my experience. My company costomers seem to be running production workloads with it just fine.

Oh wait, by rootless container you really meant running podman rootless? still don’t see an issue though. What specifically are you doing? I mean, what’s the configuration and what’s the workload?

(para)quoting History of the world part 1: …f@ck samsung?

But seriously? Working people into their graves? For what? For “MORE” that nobody needs or wants, just to fill landfills with more yesteryear devices? Ugh. Capitalism was fun for a while but now it really became very self-centered : profit for the sake of profit whereas we need to move humanity forward, end poverty ( because technically we can ) and start looking at each other with respect and be able to live our lives with dignity.

putin said same thing about tanks, long range rockets and planes… Ukraine got all of the above and nothing followed. Those are hollow threats of a desperate maniac who’s cornered himself

I agree with cause and effect argument. I’m dealing more with present situation as-is. You have (indirectly) confirmed that it’s in Hamas’ interest to keep conflict alive to exist as an entity. (Note: I did not disregard points on Israel being the oppressor)
