Haha nice one mate. That’s basically a poor man’s surf and turf, right?

TIL the chicken parmie is from NY. Although we Aussies have it served with hot chips, salad, and lager, instead of with pasta.

Yep and I also want to add that you can use compose.yml to limit the CPU and RAM utilisation of each container, which can help in some cases.

You’re doing i right. Playing cool games with your kids sounds like a blast and some great memories :)

Oh I see. Most of Australian cities are actually suburban and have had wider footpaths than necessary, as well as parking buffers. It’s trivially easy to just convert one side into a protected bike lane.

I still argue that in a lot of urban areas where the road has swelled to its natural limit, depending on the road, it can be good to reduce the road by one lane and add a protected bike lane. But this is situational. Not every road needs a bike lane. But there should be bike lanes every so often, so people can safely get close to their destination without bothering motorists.

It’s too much of a mental simulation to imagine how reducing car lanes becomes a benefit to those that must drive because of a reduction of traffic and potential improvement to overall flow.

Fair enough. I agree that reducing a road by a lane can improve congestion, it isn’t always the case, and isn’t a simple sell.

I agree, but don’t let it distract you from how much capitalism sucks balls comrade

They think of it as a zero-sum game

But it’s not.

The reason you need more lanes is because of a growing population using a fixed set of roadways. As you add protected bike lanes, more and more people opt for using a bicycle. This means fewer people on the road, negating the need for the extra roadway.

If you spend limited tax dollars on bike infrastructure, driving infrastructure will not receive necessary maintenance.

I’m not sure what you personally believe, but this is not true at all.

I’m Australian, so maybe my experience with cyclists and cycling infrastructure is different. We usually extend our roads and have a green lane for cyclists, or even dedicated cycling ways alongside the footpath (sidewalk).

People here whinge that these protected cycle ways get built. And I’m just baffled.

When car drivers are stupid they get in a small prang and have to pay the excess on someone else’s insurance.

When cyclist are stupid, they end up in a hospital or the morgue.

I’m Aussie, so unfortunately it’s targeted at Australians driving huge American pickup trucks. :(

I don’t see why not!

I’m not trying to give up as well, just want to reduce it. I did try a four week break from it (made it to 2 weeks) and it did reduce the amount of time I spent on it from that point forward. So I might have to do another one of those.

What part of all this is toxic? Who said I don’t have hedonistic tendencies?

I watch porn. I just waste several hours a week on it. Trust me, I’m going to keep watching porn. I just want to timeblock it a little better, improving my relationship with it.

Maintaining this kind of lifestyle will likely result in burnout sooner or later.

Which ones exactly do you think contribute to burnout? Because as I read through it, I can’t think of a single one that does. Maybe journaling if you do it every single day (I don’t).

Yes, I get lab burnout. I do not want to be fiddling with stuff after my day job. You should give yourself a break and do something else after hours, my dude.

BUT

I do not miss GUIs. Containers are a massive win in terms because they are declarative, reproducible, and can be version controlled.

Docker in and of itself is not the problem here, from my understanding. You can and should trim the container down.

Also it’s not a “whole nested computer”, like a virtual machine. It’s only everything above the kernel, because it shares its kernel with the host. This makes them pretty lightweight.

It’s sometimes even sometimes useful to run Rust or C++ code in a Docker container, for portability, provided you of course do it right. For Rust, it typically requires multiple build steps to bring the container size down.

Basically, the people making these Docker containers suck donkey balls.

Containers are great. They’re a huge win in terms of portability, reproducibility, and security.

This doesn’t necessarily mean they’re not being impartial.

If a side’s position is the truth, they’re going to support impartiality, because they want the truth to be spread, which supports their side.

TikTok is probably about to start moderating heavily in favour of a pro-Israel/anti-Palestine bias, just like other Western social media platforms. It’s possible that all a startup would have to do is not do this to secure funding from Palestinian investors.

My only question is whether they’ll allow progressive types on their platform long-term.

Elucidate, thanks?

Things that helped;

• Blocking Lemmy and Reddit on my phone, and limiting time browsing the News
• Delete social media apps from the phone
• Switching from diet sodas to just cold water
• Reducing coffee from 4 a day to 0-1 a day
• Get diagnosed for ADHD and get on Vyvanse
• Eat high fibre, starting the day with oats/fibre
• Meditating
• Journaling, with weekly review of how I progressed towards my goals
• Cutting back on smoking weed to once every other month

What I’m still working on;

• Cut down on time browsing porn. I’ll probably binge porn for an afternoon once a week or two. Still too much.
• Consistency in the gym. I’ve had a lot of life altering events happen recently, so I’m trying to get back on the ball.
• Just vegging out on the computer while at home. I should be doing things like writing, reading, or exercise. But instead I sit here and type out long comments while my meds kick in. :)

Expound, please?
