Quick! Wiggle back and forth!

Obviously I can’t specify on this game, since it isn’t out yet, but there are plenty of cases were games are released very light on content and use season passes as a way to fill it out, as well as attempt to keep the player counts up.

Personally? I’d rather buy the game and have the whole game.

I’m really glad to see quadlets taking off. I’ve been playing with them myself and really happy with the results. They pair well with ansible. Letting you write your quadlet files in a way that makes them highly portable.

That’s the next CEOs problem.

I feel like half my job is trying to stop false positives and other noise from hitting important places. Because false positives kill any chance true positives will be noticed/reacted to/processed.

I haven’t gotten too far, but right now I’ve got persistent volumes being pushed by NFS from my NAS. I’m using rocky Linux VMs as my target, but for this use case, Fedora CoreOS should be the same.

I haven’t yet tried using Ansible to create the VMs, but that would be cool. I know teraform is designed for that sort of thing, but if Ansible can do it, all the better. I’d love to get to a point where my entire stack as Ansible.

I don’t yet have Ansible restarting the service, but that should be a simple as adding a few new tasks after the daemon-reload task. What I don’t know how to do is tell it to only restart if there is change to any of the config files uploaded. That would be nice to minimize service restarts.

Here is a redhat blog about it: https://www.redhat.com/en/blog/quadlet-podman

This docs page has more details: https://docs.redhat.com/en/documentation/red_hat_enterprise_linux/10/html/building_running_and_managing_containers/porting-containers-to-systemd-using-podman

And last, this page shows most of the options you’d expect to find: https://docs.podman.io/en/latest/markdown/podman-systemd.unit.5.html

Unfortunately not. I found documentation largely lacking. I mostly read the docs and searched specific questions that came up(which often just took me back to the docs). I did as a local LLM for help, but found it’s knowledge base lacking. Sometimes it would work for a hint, but it more often than not made up parameters and features.

I spent some time last week learning both Ansible and Podman Quadlets. They are a powerful duo, especially for self hosting.

Ansible is a desired state system for Linux. Letting you define a list of servers and what their configuration should be, like “have podman installed” and “have this file at this location with this content”.

Podman quadlets is a system for defining podman containers as a service. You define the container, volumes, and networks all in essentially Systemd unit files.

Mixing the two together, I can have my entire podman setup in a format that can be pushed to any server in seconds.

And of course everything is text files that git well.

Why do you think advertising companies like Google and Meta are dumping so much money into AI? It isn’t to make a better product for the user.

You know what would be more useful than this AI and wouldn’t cost billions of dollars? If Facebook made a simple recipe that didn’t have all that fluff. Instead of having AI try to come up with it in the fly, you could just have premade recipes. Wouldn’t that be grand. Oh wait, that wouldn’t give the opportunity for the AI to recommend a specific brand of soy sauce or that you buy your spices from Doordash with a 10% discount coupon!

What are you talking about, there’s a new Elder Scrolls release every year. Skyrim Remastered, Skyrim Deluxe. Skyrim Limited Edition. Skyrim for Switch. Skyrim Premium Deluxe for Switch, the list goes on.

My understanding is that the turbo button in old PCs wasn’t to make the computer go faster, but to underclock it to match what games expected. A physical compatibility mode button, essentially.

I’m not sure how Orion gets away with it, but Apple has been deadset against allowing other browsers to exist on their platform, Chrome, Edge, and Firefox on iOS are just a Safari wrapper. This strongly limits what they can offer for extensions. The only people who own Apple phones is Apple, everyone else is just renting.

Android Auto and Car Play are both systems that allow phones to display content on the cars screens. I drive and older car, but installed a new head unit that has Android Auto. I have all the same features I want from a connect car, without it being connected.

My cars infotainment system is essentially a thun client for my phone. It works great. It connects automatically a few seconds after I start the car via Wi-Fi from my phone, so I don’t even have to take my phone out of my pockwt when I get in.

I had a similar problem with Lemmy.one. It was the push I needed to move over to Piefed, and I’m glad I did.

But someone has to be the smarted in the world, who are you to say it isn’t me? /s

Thanks Willy.

Are you making similarreplies to posts about conservatives? Or are you only try to sour peoples views of democrats? I see a lot of “what about Israel” posts any time a democrat is mentioned. But those same people don’t seem to give a damn that republicans are not only doing the same or worse with Israel, but also trying to destroy America.

The destroy America is what this whole post was about, and for some reason you felt compelled to bring up Israel. And I have no problem saying that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza and the US is not only complicit, but seeming encuaging it, but that has nothing to do with this post.
