When Algeria is too woke for you, you should really reconsider things.

It's easy to understand them when you realise that their entire ideology starts at "anything the US does or says is bad" and continues from there.
- The US supports Taiwan and is against China? China good, Taiwan bad.
- The US supports Ukraine and is against Russia? Russia good, Ukraine bad.
- Israel, Palestine, same thing
- Bosnian and Rwandan genocide happened? Well the US says so, therefore they didn't.
- NATO bombed Serbia over their attempted genocide in Kosovo. NATO is the US, so Serbia didn't do anything wrong, but Kosovo is bad.
- And so on, and so on...
Once you look at it through that lens, even their most wild takes suddenly become very consistent.
Podman quadlets have been a blessing. They basically let you manage containers as if they were simple services. You just plop a container unit file in /etc/containers/systemd/, daemon-reload and presto, you've got a service that other containers or services can depend on.
I've been in love with the concept of ansible since I discovered it almost a decade ago, but I still hate how verbose it is, and how cumbersome the yaml based DSL is. You can have a role that basically does the job of 3 lines of bash and it'll need 3 yaml files in 4 directories.
About 3 years ago I wrote a big ansible playbook that would fully configure my home server, desktop and laptop from a minimal arch install. Then I used said playbook for my laptop and server.
I just got a new laptop and went to look at the playbook but realised it probably needs to be updated in a few places. I got feelings of dread thinking about reading all that yaml and updating it.
So instead I'm just gonna rewrite everything in simple python with a few helper functions. The few roles I rewrote are already so much cleaner and shorter. Should be way faster and more user friendly and maintainable.
I'll keep ansible for actual deployments.
Not sure what you're on about, most package managers have a literal database of most package manager installed files. Debian and derivatives have dpkg --verify or debsums to verify the files, arch has paccheck, I'm sure other distros have something similar. And fixing them is just a matter of reinstalling the package, which you can do from a chroot if the system won't boot.
Or you can just run your system on a checksumming FS like btrfs which will instantly tell you when a file goes bad.
You'd figure that would take about 5 seconds for the world to win, but weirdly, it was kinda close.
I was just introducing someone to Rodney last night because some actor in a show we saw looked a bit like him. Then I wake up and see this here. Life sure has funny coincidences sometimes.
Shame he didn't have a scandal on that stage. They would have stopped taking about it within the day.
Someone found a way to weaponise bikeshedding.
it's a mechanism / not a computer,
It's an analog clockwork computer.
there is no mystery, just clickbait as usual.
There's plenty of mysteries about it, hence why it's still a topic of study despite being discovered 120 years ago.
I can't tell.
