VOICEOVER: Captain's log, star date 571.204. As we are unable to transport through the energy field, Commander Riker, Commander Data and I remain trapped on the strange asteroid, which continues to fall ever faster into the black hole. As we have no way out of our predicament, it seems we have no choice but to attempt to solve the strange murder of the mysterious hotel guest.

PICARD (knocking on hotel manager's door): Hello! Is there anyone in there! We demand to speak with the manager at once!

ANNOYED VOICE: Go away! I'm busy!

PICARD: Your guests are being murdered! If you are the manager of this place, that must matter to you!

ANNOYED VOICE: Oh, very well. Come in, if you must.

PICARD: Q! I should have known you were behind this!

Q: Inspector Jean Luc. How nice of you to drop by. You have a warrant, I assume?

Dr. Evil should be much further to the right.

He did not spend 8 years at Evil Medical School to get called Mr.

Annnnnd.... roll for initiative.

After Deadpool and Wolverine, who even cares anymore?

Points for the correct answer. I work on systems for spacecraft and podman is what we use on those for containerization (better option for a couple reasons)... but we literally just SAY docker to the suits, because that's what they've heard of. Which is why I said docker to this guy.

Docker and Podman are both free. Podman is the lighter weight, more FOSS, also slightly more DIY option, they are intercompatible - I work on systems for spacecraft and Podman is what we use on those because it's lighter weight. If you want to run something in docker, ChatGPT is actually pretty good at talking you through the specific setup (at least that's been my experience).

Docker can absolutely run desktop apps.

People HATE the company, for good reason, but it consistently scores top marks for actual privacy implementation.

Why not Docker?

Fast forward the world of His Dark Materials 400 years and you get this.

 
 

Not me. I have a client who's a very sweet old lady who's business is doing real bio science to treat cancer patients with cannabis extracts.

She's very easily frustrated with technical problems and definitely has the boomer attitude that if you buy something expensive, it means it's good. But she's been getting more and more pissed about enshittification and big software companies screwing over their customers over the last couple years. Adobe's new TOU has her hopping mad. She has all the research papers she's worked on over the last 20 years in Creative Cloud.

I've been consulting with her off and on for six years and she will get SUPER frustrated with glitches and trouble shooting. I don't think there's anything out there that will work for her to ditch Adobe. But I thought I'd ask here, see if there's anything she might try.

 

The goal is actually that I'm able to hook my ticket tracking system (I'm using Zammad) to various ToDo lists I can expose to other people. I'm happy to write middleware to make that work, but I don't want to write a whole ToDo app.

Needs to be able to track multiple lists that can be shared in a granular way (I want to share some lists with some people and other lists with other people).

 

I upscaled the faces and then prompted them with the same lyrics again.

 

A client of mine is getting harassed, we think by her former attorney who she's suing for embezzlement.

Someone is posting fake resumes for her and applying for jobs and she gets daily emails and call backs. Is there anything to do short of either ignoring it or playing whack-a-mole?

She's a very sweet old lady who is freaked out by this and doesn't deserve it.

 

I've been warming up to switching to GrapheneOS for months. Last month I bought a Pixel 8 (which is the buggiest effing phone I've ever owned, good job Google). I've just been waiting to have the bandwidth.

But with Google sunsetting Google Podcasts, I've decided to make time next week. Podcasts are a MAJOR part of my daily functioning.
