Trump is doing nothing more than pandering to the oil industry because they want to export LNG from Alaska. Besides, American refineries are largely equipped to handle heavier crude - Canada is helping us out.

We only have a (very) small trade deficit with Canada if you include oil. Canada is subsidizing what we do import to help us out (you know - we’re supposed to be friends).

Don’t believe the b/s that comes out of Trump’s mouth.

I’ve used several over the years, but right now I’m enjoying Hyprland. UWSM is also working well for session management.

You do realize that Canada is subsidizing oil for the US, right?

Had the same thought - casualty is definitely not the right word to use here

Are they going to send back eggs?

Completely agree.

I might be wrong, but I think the Palestinian community had Kamala’s attention and a real opportunity to affect policy if she won the election.

Trump obviously doesn’t care what anyone thinks. He only cares about money/power.

Yep. This article explains the problem well: https://taxfoundation.org/testimony/tariffs-alternatives-boost-us-competitiveness/

Tariffs have an overall negative effect on the US. Not only will products become more expensive (domestically produced and imported), the dollar will also strengthen, reducing exports to other countries. It’s a lose-lose situation.

I currently use Gnome on my laptop, but I’ve toyed with returning to KDE for a while. I used KDE briefly back in the v3 and v4 days felt like it was a bit bloated compared to Gnome v1 and v2. Cinnamon is nice but a bit heavyweight on graphics. I should probably return to XFCE or Mate.

Yep - it’s one of the reasons Miami sees so much Trump support.

Interesting question. I don’t think I’ve ever defended either. I’ve also only lived in capitalist countries, so I have no personal experience with other economic systems.

These remarks could discourage others from reading a useful and well-written article.

I still use GnuPG on occasion, but I’ve benefited from incorporatingsops and age into repositories. They’re pretty slick.

You do you man. I’m just trying to share some information that helped me.

For what it’s worth, some say that PGP is bad and needs to go away. I found that article pretty interesting when learning sops.

Dockerfiles act as instructions for the docker (or compatible) CLI to use for building OCI container images. Images may or may not have layers and can be exported as a tarball for inspection (with tools like dive).

Nix provides native support for building container images, and the resulting archive must be loaded using docker load. There is another library (nix2container) that aims for better performance and relies on skopeo for copying the built image to a docker-compatible server, local or remote.

Just wanted to share a some of the information I’ve learned. Cheers!

I currently use NixOS and nix-darwin, and I’ve enjoyed the ride so far. I use flakes with direnv for reproducible development environments, and this has been working out well. I’ve also been impressed with using Nix to build OCI containers.

The learning curve isn’t flat, but the ecosystem is fantastic.

I almost feel bad that I haven’t. I’ve used their documentation for years but never installed the distro. Most recently I’ve been having fun with NixOS.

Thanks for posting. I was unaware of current events. That’s quite the rabbit hole!
