Thanks, I appreciate the kind words. I'd say my comment upvote/downvoted policy is similar. I downvote things that are unproductive or nasty in nature, because I generally productive discussions.

But holy hell did the discussion take a toxic turn. By the end of the day I was just burnt out on it and went to sleep. Had it started as a proper discussion, rather than a downvote fest and immediately pulling out the usual "you're an evil Nazi" rhetoric, it would have probably gone in a much more civil direction.

A comment so clever you had to post it twice.

Lmao, want me to force her to make an account and answer it herself? How absurd.

Definitely run it in a container. It's a great application, but it has several documented security holes. You'll want it to be as restricted as possible, so if a major exploit does come about, it won't do much harm.

I've been running rootless Podman (with the exception of my reverse proxy, because privileged ports) without any issues, though my one challenge has actually been documentation - specifically for podman-compose, which seems to be a complete void.

Bonus when you disable software flow control: In addition to Ctrl+r to reverse search through commands, you can search forward via Ctrl+s

I wasn't directing my comment at you, but rather the other nasty comments in the thread.

Sure, here are some potentially incoherent ramblings:

  • All money should he removed from politics, including salaries for politicians. It should be a side-gig like it was in the past. Anyone caught accepting bribes should be removed, and both parties (briber and bribee) should be imprisoned for corruption

  • Nuclear energy, for the love of all that is holy. We can't rely on China for all of our rare earth metals forever. They're going to cut our asses off one of these days, and we're going to go belly up when they do.

  • All gun laws are infringements. Every single one. Do I want felons to have guns? No, but if they cause a problem, just shoot 'em a little.

  • We should destroy the entire concept of health insurance. It's a scam and has been for a very long time. I think it used to be an okay idea, up until the point it became an expectation that everyone would have it, and its use cases became broader and broader. Now it's mandatory, which is absurd.

  • We need to get rid of social security and encourage people to fund their own retirement accounts. If they don't have the self control to do so, then bummer.

  • End the Fed. They've become a 4th branch of the government without a constitutional amendment.

  • Stop glorifying gender non-conformity in schools. We're going to convince kids to go down detrimental rabbit holes during their formative years.

  • Stop bailing out corporations. Let them fail, and let the people screwed over by such a failure do whatever they want to those in charge.

  • Politicians shouldn't be allowed to exempt themselves from the laws they pass. In fact, they should have to eat their own dog food for a year before anyone else is exposed to it.

  • We need major data privacy regulations at the federal level.

  • Any state or federal agency found to be in continued violation of the bill of rights should be shut down completely and permanently.

I'm sure there are more that I'll think of.

That's the beauty of it. I just said I was conservative and the entire instance started a dogpile without actually having a productive conversation.
