Is a chicken egg an egg laid by a chicken, or an egg that if fertilized would hatch into a chicken?

same amount of effort

Physical effort, yes. Cognitive effort, no.

• Intros on a serial show are expected, and in some cases change subtly from one episode to another to provide additional entertainment value (eg the Simpsons intro). In other cases a change of intro sets the setting for the episode (eg Star Trek: Enterprise’s Storm Front episodes).
• YouTube ads are not related to the show, provide no contextual value, and in the case of interstitial ads are not even at a predictable time. They also tend to be inanely repetitive, showing the same ad over and over in consecutive videos. Contrast those to eg halftime ads at the Superbowl broadcasts, which have predictable timing, variety, and have a history of being (or trying to be) entertaining.

I will never forgive JSON for not allowing commas after the last element in a list.

Yeah, you’d have a LoadBalancer service for Traefik which gets assigned a VIP outside the cluster.

virtual IP addresses

Yeah, metallb.

Or the classics of symphonic metal like Stratovarius.

M’lady and Squire.

The container is reproducible. Container configuration is in version control. That leaves you with the volumes mounted into the container, which you back up like any other disk.

Photorealistic: yes. However, it could be debatable whether it’s gruesome. We see situations that characters survive with short term damage but no long term consequences (example: Homer skating into the canyon). So while it would be gruesome to us, it’s probably closer to slapstick to them.

Rant: We’re living in a time where curl | bash has become normalized. This generation’s security practices are fucked.

Back to the topic: I see it as a problem of not enough education and too much trust. People are not taught how to verify the authenticity and legitimacy of software, and put too much trust in claims of authority. It’s not just a consumer problem either, look at the CrowdStrike incident: people in the industry knew it was shit, but the decision makers kept trusting it because they are a big name. How did they become a big name? The same way a lot of other companies do, by bribing the early decision makers into using them.

Back to consumers: it doesn’t help that there’s no first class sandboxing features. Both Android and iOS rely heavily on app store controls. Sure, there are some system controls, but the user has barely any agency over them.

In “Treehouse of Horror VI” Homer becomes 3D and comments how he’s “so bulky”.

It’s not that Seagate improved (which it may have), it’s more that WD has noticeably declined. It’s not a race to the bottom (yet), but there’s effectively no competition any more, so they aren’t incentivised to improve quality.

There’s Amazon’s mechanical Turk, and after that self driving car hit a pedestrian and stopped on top of him it turned out that Cruise “self driving” cars depend on human operators when they get stuck.

Figure out the uid/gid (numeric) for the user in lxc, then change the data permissions to those.

Homestar Runner cartoons were often interactive

I got fond memories of hunting for the clickies at the end of the videos.

The natural evolution of prank calls is rickroll links.

It was a very linear story, too.

Since FF 6 and 7 have already been mentioned, I’m going to give a honorable mention to Shining Force.

Regulation won’t work, because regulation moves slowly, and these companies find workarounds fast. And as long as the cost of breaking the rule is less than the benefits of doing so, it’ll be “just the cost of doing business.”

Use -m and limit the build job’s memory so it doesn’t kill the docker daemon.
