Bread is natural?

Not the best example in the us, perhaps. But you get the idea
- Comment on ‘FuckLAPD.com’ Lets Anyone Use Facial Recognition to Instantly Identify Cops 11 hours ago:
Yes and no. They’re still humans. They should be held accountable, but they should also have the privacy to live their lives
- Comment on ‘FuckLAPD.com’ Lets Anyone Use Facial Recognition to Instantly Identify Cops 20 hours ago:
I suppose, either way it makes harassment and more misbehaviour more easily available
- Comment on ‘FuckLAPD.com’ Lets Anyone Use Facial Recognition to Instantly Identify Cops 20 hours ago:
It would make it easier for these people to be harassed, or worse. Privacy is important
- Comment on ‘FuckLAPD.com’ Lets Anyone Use Facial Recognition to Instantly Identify Cops 20 hours ago:
I think it’s more akin to a “get guns ez pz” article. Even if most people can get them, a lot of people don’t because it’s a hassle. But to be fair, if it’s public information then heck, it was only a matter of time until there was a website making it ez pz.
That’s not this article’s fault. And some important context I managed to miss at first :/
- Comment on ‘FuckLAPD.com’ Lets Anyone Use Facial Recognition to Instantly Identify Cops 21 hours ago:
The concern was the lack of knowledge that this was public. I noticed it’s in the article, I may have read over it
- Comment on ‘FuckLAPD.com’ Lets Anyone Use Facial Recognition to Instantly Identify Cops 21 hours ago:
A. A gun is a tool as well, doesn’t mean you should make them public available
B. That makes a lot of sense. I’m not from around there, sorry for the misunderstanding

I might just start bundling my apps inside an environment setup with nix inside docker. A lot of them are similar to identical, So those docker images actually share a lot of layers under the hood.
My apps after compiling and packaging are usually around 50mb. That’s 48mb of debian, which is entirely shared between all the images that I build. So the eventual size of my deployed applications isn’t nearly as big as they seem from the size of the tarball being sent around. So for 10 apps, that’s not 500mb, that’s 68mb.
If anything, the docker hub and registry are a bit of a mess.
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 4 days ago:
you can trust the nix repositories aren’t going to change
That, I do not. And storing the source and such for every dependency would be bigger than, and result in the same thing as an image.
I think you’re trying to achieve something different than what docker is for. Docker is like installing onto an empty computer then shipping the entire machine to the end user. You pretty much guarantee thing will work. (yes this is oversimplified)
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 4 days ago:
The issue is, nix builds are only guaranteed to be reproducible if the dependencies don’t change. Which they shouldn’t, but you can’t trust the internet to be consistent. Things won’t be there to be fetched forever.
Images do. And you can turn one into a container in seconds. I suppose it’s a matter of preference. I like one a package to be independent

It also adds more fodder for insurance companies to try to not do their job
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 5 days ago:
Aw, meh. From what I saw it’s more like a jail, there’s no imaging the containers
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 6 days ago:
No I threw it in a docker container
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 6 days ago:
Hold up, nix added containerization? How did I miss that? I will have another look now!
Also, you’re right. For small quick scripts docker can be a hassle. Nowadays though I add building a docker image as part of my project’s build/compilation process. The main reason I do this is so that I can work with whatever machine I happen to be on, then just copy paste the app to whatever machine I want it on. No extra config or even a look at the environment required. Just install docker and forget about the rest
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 6 days ago:
Perhaps it’s improved over the last year, I can give it a shot. But yes, for my own packaged applications without shared dependencies, docker is handy. And that’s exclusively what I run
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 6 days ago:
Ye that’s handy, until some script inside a library or something doesn’t
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 6 days ago:
When I tried it it looked really cool. Up until it just… didn’t work. And then looking around I found a bunch of people giving me better snippets of scripts and it was not helpful
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 6 days ago:
Tried both, didn’t like 'm, using docker now
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 6 days ago:
Tried it, but some apps depend on spawning other python processes. Half the time that results in them breaking out of the env cuz they’re using the python in the system path
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 1 week ago:
Or three docker containers

Well some weight was lost, at least
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 1 week ago:
I tried it, ye. And although I like the concept, I can’t say the implementation was to my liking
- Comment on Another reason to love Linux 1 week ago:
Alright, I want two apps that depend on two different version of python, but won’t work on the other.
No warning, no notice, just one of the two fails to start. Thank you package manager

A lot more than just 3d rendering is lumped into that chart. The 3d would be better labelled as “some other stuff”
