Hacker New’s sentiment on this from the comments I’ve read is that it is the author’s own fault.
Haha! Yeah, I don’t even know where to start if I wanted to use apt for this. I’ll stick with Maven for Java.
Hmm. I was going to say that it sounds bonkers what it can run just any script, but at the same time, is it any different from downloading and executhing a binary file?
Apt is great, but it does not work with every language. As an example, you cannot use apt with maven (java) AFAIK.
Wait, any package that I download via NPM could potentially have a script that will run unless I set it to false, when I install said package?
learning the CLI will go a long way to help themselves later when they need to learn it to fix something the UI doesn’t handle well.
I agree with you on this, but we don’t now the constraints of OP. Perhaps the mentioned clients need access. Ask instead of assume.
would you have preferred noob?
I have no problem with other people’s level of knowledge, be it greater or lesser than mine. I have a problem with how you conveyed your message. Here is how you could have phrased it instead, as an example of what I meant with “be nicer”.
Learn the command line, it will more than likley be of great help in the future. Better now than never.
Maybe OP does not want to spend time to learn something that only has one use case for them. Maybe OP has external factors that forces the use of Docker Desktop.
Be nicer.
Unless they just use Firefox’s proxy settings.
EDIT: It’s not DNS but should still work.
Wouldn’t verion pinning solve this problem?
What should be used instead?
I run Borg backup, and I did a successful live test yesterday. Deleted the wrong file and hade to restore it.
What do you use for OCR parsing?
You have no idea how much work goes into being really good at a game.
That’s why I’ll never be any good at any game.
No need for a sharp knife, just don’t breathe with you nose (or don’t breathe at all while cutting).
I want this for cleaning my house. When did I last clean my dish washer, the lamps etc. It’s on my TODO to create when I have time.
I suggest giving NixOS a try. I recommend it because it makes it easy to add or remove stuff. Changing names on containers, removing installed application etc is just changing your configuration. And if you mess something up and it does not boot, you can just boot from the last working configuration.
Containers are also really easy to manage. Convert a docker run command with https://www.composerize.com/ and then use https://github.com/aksiksi/compose2nix to convert the yaml file to a nix file. Configure as needed.
I used Kimi K2 to start learning the Nix language. It really cut down time when trying to understand what I did wrong when switching configurations threw errors.
It is an automation platform with a selfhosted tier.
Where do you push to? I have some secrets in my nix files (passwords). While I will get around to move them away from my nix files soonTM, I don’t want to push those to a public repo.
And Strongbox for iOS. They communicate with KeepassXC to keep the vaults compatible with both software.
