The whole point of docker is to solve the “work on my computer” by providing the developer hacked up OS with the app. (Rather than fixing it and dealing dependencies like a grown up)
Bit special for it to still be broken. If it flat out doesn’t work, at all, then it may well be “sunk cost fallacy” to keep working on it. There is no universal answer, but there is a developer tendency to rewrite.
I hope it continues to be a non issue for you. Without you having to take any measures. Just saying it can be an issue. Search “zigbee 2.4ghz wifi interference” if you don’t believe me.
Programmers love to rewrite things, but it’s often not a good idea, let alone good for a business. Old code can be ugly because it is covered with horrible leasons and compromises. A rewrite can be the right thing, but it’s not to be taken lightly. It needs to be budgeted for, signed off on and carefully planned. The old system needs to stable enough to continue until the new system can replace it.
You have any 2.4 GHz WiFi problems? In theory there is a problem, and I know a dude with a lot of ZigBee and a lot of 2.4GHz problems, but without going over with work equipment and spending some time doing work for free, I can’t be sure it’s ZigBee. It’s just my best guess.
You already married to ZigBee? If not, maybe don’t. It causes 2.4Ghz interference. You’ll need to think about WiFi channels and avoid ones that overlap with ZigBee. Either that, or use 5Ghz WiFi and repeaters to make up for the lower penertration (if an issue).
Academic. The EU has already done it and so we in the UK already have it. Our market just isn’t big enough, relative to it’s locality, to do something different. Whatever the EU does just washes over us. Only now we have no say in the what that is or how it is implemented.
They should be standard protocols and you should be able to change server to competition. Be great if it was all open, but failing that, standards, competition and right to repair.
It’s a backup. On the main machine there are two disks (fast & big and slow & smaller) not in raid, with a btrfs copy.
It would be quite an event to lose all three copies.
Remote storage (Pi at parents house with a big disk) and cron’ed btrfs send over ssh.
I can only speak of on Linux. If you know the disk is bad, clone it, with ddrescue, and fix the clone. But in future RAID and backup remotely. Also, next gen filesystems like ZFS and Btrfs for check sums and self healing and subvolumes with send/receive deltas between them.
I feel bad buying things DRM’ed, so I very rarely do, and not for myself. I don’t want to fund that. Feels much better funding DRM free work.
I’m not giving you what I regard as my instances because I think that is combative. I don’t want combat, that’s the whole thing. I’m not really pro or anti this defederation, but I can see the problem and I’m interested in how it plays out. In it becomes a place of combat rather than debate, I’m simply leave. If there is no news or anyone to talk to, I will also leave.
If there is coordinated defederation, maybe it’ll give mods of the troll infested instances pause for thought, and make them clean house. Or not, and Lemmy bumbles along without ever hitting mainstream, until something else comes along. Maybe central instances set the tone of the whole thing, and here this is a mortal wound.
It’s an interesting “natural experiment”.
See that’s not my experience of the problem. They aren’t being polite. They are out right hostile. Staying calm, providing trusted source references, and remaining polite, just seams to enrage they further. They seam to want to have a slagging match, which is of no interest to me as I’m not 12.
So ‘Tankies’ are the ones fighting Nazis? There doesn’t seam much between the two to be honest.
It’s not really communism. It’s all about freedom to compete. The bazaar is a market after all.
Note: Reference to The Cathedral and the Bazaar. Worth at least knowing of in regard to open source history.
I’m watching with interest what happens here. I left Reddit before for Voat for a while. It turned out that without policing (or maybe it was the type of policing) it turned into a toxic cesspit.
Policing of some kind is clearly import to human groups. In the real world, across the world and history, where is no law and order, you end up with war lords and drug lords, who setup their own rules. Take moderation away and online groups get consumed by trolls.
So I’m watching what happens with federated Lemmy with interest.
If Lemmy turns into a toxic cesspit, like Voat did, anyone remotely normal will leave to avoid the toxicity.
You mean a fork? Why not? A copyright assignment and relicensing dispute is what caused a LibreOffice to fork from OpenOffice. Forks is a great feature of FOSS and there are normal.
Best recent example I bumped into was OrcaSlicer it’s a fork of a fork of a fork, merging in some of a fourth fork.
Also depends on the country. It isn’t everywhere. Non-commercial file-sharing is legal in a number of European countries and I’m sure elsewhere.
It could be taken as a sign of the health of the democracy’s function and technically literacy of the population. In a society of tech heads with a highly functional democracy, it would be DRM measures that would be illegal…
Sounds like you were given a mess alright.
