They’re cheap. You can also generate your own certs and use your own ca. But otherwise yes - quit yer bitching and learn how to do things right.

That is some premium copium.

You don’t need to if you’re just using things locally.

But also - domains are cheap.

That’s a lot easier said that done for hobbyists that need a certificate for their home server.

I’d you’re going to self host you need to learn. I have no time for kids who just want “Google but free” and don’t want to spend any time learning what it takes to make that happen.

It’s being deiven by the browsers. Shorter certs mean less time for a compromised certificate to be causing trouble.

Will we need to log in every morning and expect to refresh every damn site cert we connect to soon?

Automate your certificate renewals. You should be automating updates for security anyway.

His biggest issue was Premiere Pro not working on Linux, and Davinci Resolve not supporting the AAC Audio codec which VLC recorded in which he then wasted a ton of time on to get it to work and eventually tried to vibe-code his own video editor which didn’t really work out so then he purchased Davinci Resolve premium to get AAC support.

Holy hell, why would he do that? Just “for the content”?

Sorry, I was using “parent telling a child ‘we don’t hit people’ voice”.

It probably was drugs - but that is not the point. It’s wildly unethical and a violation of many rules of war to simply kill people like they are doing.

We don’t summarily execute people at the president’s say.

Runs kali linux. Blames Debian when it breaks.

“Bare metal” has traditionally meant without any os either. Your code executes directly on hardware and has direct control over everything. Like a micro controller.

Code in a container executes on the hardware in exactly my the same way as code not running in a container - with the os as an intermediary.

No, they’re both working you.

“Listen, if it were up to me I’d give you the car for free! But it’s my boss whose being a pain. Here’s what you need to do to convince him…”

It’s standard “I’m pretending to be on your side against my boss” stuff any car buyer has dealt with.

“not running in a container” is not “running on bare metal”. It’s just running outside a container.

When the car dealer is telling you that they’re going to try to convince their manager to accept your deal, you know they’re not actually fighting for you right?

Sanctions.

And how often does it happen?

You kids think HDDs just failed daily or something. I flew all over the place with a laptop with an HDD for years, as did many others. It’ll be fine. Especially since it’s unlikely they would be using the drives while traveling.

Lvm isn’t hard to use and works well. Any reason to not use it other than it’s not the new hotness?
