ditch it and go straight to NIxOS

distrobox is ok but the mapping of the home directory only sets ~ to another directory, it doesn’t map the new home directory to a new volume in the container to replace your home directory which i thought was odd

it’s been known for a long time that there is enough identifiable information in a “normal” person’s internet usage to identify exactly who and where you are and what you are likely doing just from metadata analysis and public domain information

question is, how is this being abused

yeah?

interesting i was under the impression that it was other immigrants involved. genuinely the first time i heard this had something to do with ex-yugoslavia. that was an issue in netherlands too 15 years ago, not sure now. albanian gangsters seem to be the new big bad in other parts of europe as well

so we agree then

honestly don’t know what any of its official policies are or how much the CCP is involved. just seems like a very overt reference to me

good point. i think i misunderstood your initial title

oddly enough it seems to be working, if i don’t login at all youtube just offers up the usual dross

the real name of this app in chinese is “Little Red Book”

surprised?

did you know the real chinese name for this app is “Little Red Book”

FYI

yeah i created a new youtube account in a container once and just watched all the popular/drama suggestions. that account turned into a shitstorm immediately

these days i curate my youtube accounts making liberal use of Not interested/Do not recommend channel/Editing my history and even test watching in a container before watching it on my curated account

this is just how “the algorithm” works. shovel more of what you watch in your face.

the fact that they initially will give you right-wing, conspiracy fueled, populist, trash right off the bat is the concern

interesting, so i guess it can answer questions from any exam

so what of its reasoning? can it deduce? can it follow specific logic/equations in mathematical notation or in plain language?

this person needs to tell us what about the “current situation” they think is so bad before we can assess how mentally diverse they are

happy and warm snoozing on the bed

NixOS with gnome

i have found this reference very useful https://mynixos.com/options/

yeah proxmox is not necessary unless you need lots of separate instances to play around with

this is my container config for element/matrix podman containers do not run as root so you have to get the file privileges right on the volumes mapped into the containers. i used top to find out what user the services were running as. you can see there are some settings there where you can change the user if you are having permissions problems
