Oh yeah, to be clear I don’t think Freakonomics is worth listening to, but trying to draw a link between the views of a single host and community funded media at large is not honest.

I’m not Admiral Patrick of the former dubvee.org I just play along to waste the time of those who believe they are successfully harassing him.

Attempting to discredit trusted orgs like NPR is a long beloved conservative tactic
You’re falsely linking two different things, Freakonomics never connected the superpredator myth to abortion, just crime.
It’s also disingenuous to imply that Stephen Dubner (a libertarian) could speak for the views of every single NPR affiliate. It doesn’t work that way.

2·2 days agoI’m a crypto-Trekkie; if you walked into my home and really looked closely you’d only see multiple starship models, action figures shirts, lego sets and a handful of props. Not a single ceramic stoneware baking dish (unless we’re counting mugs and decorative plates in which case there are dozens).
Same and same! I don’t think it’s fully sunk in for a lot of Linux die-hards the game changer that is immutability/flatpaks.

Thanks for trying to explain but I honestly just left more confused.
It’s in the post. They wanted immutability:
“Unraid has always been a so-called immutable OS— however you modify your server, if you go in there, you type the wrong command, you delete all the files from your root, you still could just reboot and you’re back to the virgin release… and that’s a big reason why we’ve chosen Fedora [uCore].”
— Tom Mortensen, creator of Unraid
Man, every time I ask someone what makes LLMs useful I get weird rambling defensiveness.
I don’t understand how “automated production of websites that can fool you into believing a person made them” is helpful or interesting or valuable to anyone but propogandists and scammers.

I should say the data they send you has all the message text etc, so it’s fun to read through. You can keep it on your computer privately while scrambling what is on Reddit.

Portainer has worked well for me but it has so much that I don’t need or use. It looks like Dockhand has a Home Assistant integration which is nice, so I’ll check that out thanks for the rec.
