The guy is 70, I think it’s OK to let yourself go a little at that age.

The article talks about not wanting to be reliant on a service, so I would guess they will try to reduce reliance on the cloud.

You’ll always want some level of cloud so maybe they will look at Owncloud / Nextcloud or some other open source solution they can run themselves?

My Organic Maps doesn’t have traffic (or doesn’t for my area). I can’t see anything about it online either, except discussions about how it could be implemented.

Where do you find the traffic info? Even if zoomed in to New York I see nothing.

The question reminds me of this:

Ross: Why are you mad at me?

Phoebe: You said I was boring

Ross: When did I say you were boring?!

Phoebe: Oh my God, I remember now! We were playing chess!

Ross: Phoebe! You and I have never played chess!

Phoebe: Oh, come on! Yes, remember that time on the frozen lake? We were playing chess, you said I was boring, and then you took off your energy mask and you were Cameron Diaz! Okay, there’s a chance this may have been a dream.

I think it’s reasonable to respond with something like “I’m really not a kid person, I don’t much enjoy talking about kids or being around kids. I’m still happy to meet for coffee, but maybe we plan to keep it a short chat and see how it goes?”

They’re mostly just going to be the focus of the occasion because they need constant attention, and I don’t really like kids in general. And, if they cry or act up and attract attention I will hate that.

Many places will have toy areas for kids, maybe you can find one (or ask if they can suggest one since they are more likely to know which ones nearby have that). A 2 year old can probably keep themselves mostly entertained off and on for 30 mins or an hour, depending on the specific kid and if there are a good selection of toys. The 6 month old will need more attention but may well spend a lot of the time sleeping.

An old friend/aquaintance I’ve not spoken to in a few years popped up recently and we got chatting a little over text.

I don’t want to put you off, but I’d probably have a plan for what you’re going to do if they start a MLM pitch.

Ok thanks, I’ll have to be extra careful deploying any changes.

Thanks! I did see there’s a docker format and a podman format which I assume is what this difference is about. I’m not against discord but I’ve never really used it. I’ll check it out if I get desperate 🙂

Thanks, I had already played a bit with distrobox and hadn’t worked that out either. It seems adding a Z flag to my bind mount to keep SELinux happy is all that was needed.

I seem to have got it working using podman, adding a Z flag to the bind mount to make SELinux happy.

Oh shit I think that’s it! I’ve added that Z flag to each bind mount declaration in compose.yaml, and it seems to be running properly now. Thanks!

Any idea what the implications are of this transferring to an ubuntu based distro?

As far as I can tell, you just run the command with sudo to run as root? But this doesn’t help, I have been using sudo.

Edit: I think this is solved, someone else mentioned using the Z flag on the bind mount declaration and it seems to be working!

I’m already using bind mounts under the /home directory. I learnt pretty early on day 1 not to fight the distro, so I’m trying to understand the way Bazzite wants this to be done. From another reply, it sounds like it’s a difference in rootless/rootful containers so I’m going to try to work out how to run a podman container as root and see if this helps.

Thanks, I will have a go at trying to get it running as a rootful container!

I was running Nobara before, which is also based on Fedora, so not sure why it would be different in regards to SELinux?

I mentioned this in my original post.

Searching online shows everyone saying just use podman, it comes pre-installed and is a drop in replacement. The problem is that it doesn’t work.

But someone else has mentioned the issue is the containers are rootless by default, so I’ll explore that line of troubleshooting.

This says it’s the US pronunciation of Thames: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=xKDzKYcKTO4

Do you pronounce names and brains that way, or do you pronounce Thames differently in Connecticut than the rest of the US?

Do you pronounce Thames like names and brains, or names and brains like Thames?

Personally if someone was described as “good”, I’d take it to mean they could do it at an expected level (not going to hold the team back). If someone was above average at the task then I’d expect a different adjective, e.g. great or excellent.

I guess my position is that I am not worried about someone confirming content exists on my server. But I don’t live in the US, if I did I might be more worried. I also geofence to my country to limit exposure.

Cheers for that. Many of these issues allow an authenticated user to do admin actions if they do the right things, so it seems you should never allow a user that you don’t fully trust to have an account.

But outside of this, there isn’t anything in there that on its own worries me given the nature of the platform (that is, that if it all burnt down I could retrieve all data from other sources). I’m no expert but a cursory look shows a bunch of potential issues that may be layered with other issues but no clear attack path except with prior knowledge.

These should obviously be fixed but there’s nothing that makes me want to rip my server off the open internet in a hurry.
