Fine, I’ll be the low bar.
Proxmox, I just use the GUI to update
I use community-scripts almost exclusively. Community-scripts cron lxc updater does the heavy lifting. pct enter [lxc]
update
does a bunch of work too.
For Docker, I use a couple lxcs with Dockge on it, the “update” button takes me most of the rest of the way.
Finally, I have a couple remote machines [diet-pi]. I haven’t figured out updating over tailscale yet, so I just go round semi frequently for the apt update && apt upgrade -y
VMs get the apt update && apt upgrade -y too. I keep a bare bones mint VM as a virtual laptop, as I don’t have one. I’ll do what I need to do and if I had to install software I’ll just nuke the VM and go again from the bare bones template.


That, that can’t be good for the battery. Pretty cool that it’s doable for those that want/need it though.


Instead of focusing on becoming 10th, we just gave ourselves healthcare. It is a wondrous achievement going around the moon though.


Oh look another oligarchy preparing to invade a foreign land. We call the previous one orcs, seems fitting to call these ones orcs too.


Where are you at now with it?
I first read it as a teen and was fully “yeah, this is the way”, he was my favourite author at one time, terrifying looking back. As I read it more and more, and became more and more lefty, the shine has come off. Now I just see it as a fully open live letter to Authoritarianism.
Nowadays when I read Heinlein I just see the… There was a video by Overly Sarcastic Productions where Red (the host) did a “Deep thoughts with Robert A Heinlein” where some of his nonsense is laid bare… I just see those now, I can’t read them.
Here’s a Reddit thread where users highlight their favourite deep thoughts with Robert A Heinlein.


Exhalation stories - Ted Chiang. I’m into short stories while I physically and mentally prepare for Captive War #2.
Anyways, the first story about a gateway that can take you forward/back 20 years, but you can’t change anything. Going forward merely tells you where you’ll end up, going backwards merely increases your understanding of how you got where you are. Great story, fully locked in, the rest haven’t caught my imagination quite like the first though.


The answer is found in capitalism. Why are gamers, who have continually been fucked by capitalism, so blind at seeing the obvious. '80s game crash: capitalism. Day one DLC: capitalism. Micro transactions: capitalism. All the hardware being hoovered up, so software costs more at every level, increasing prices for both hardware and software: capitalism.
This always trips me up. Would the correct way of writing: a cube 256mm to an edge
256³mm³? That feels inelegant.
Do the math myself so 1.67*10⁶mm³? Which seems like I’m asking the reader to simplify what I complicated.
Or 256mm³? That seems true to speech it’s a 256mm cube…
Sing me the doom song while I drive us to Whitby.
Blood over Bright Haven. A book that, among other things, is about discovering how to be a good ally.


It’s the machine that goes “BING”
You don’t understand, I need all the help I can get!!!


Which is quite literally everything. At the very, very, least goods and services are distributed via oil power somewhere in the chain.


Wait till you learn about Carcassonne. A town so chaotically laid out it has a board game.


I don’t think Spec ops is spoilers to reveal you’re a bad guy, not in 2026: you play the US, in the Gulf. You play the US doing US imperialism, it doesn’t hide that from you. It’s just later in the game it confronts you with what that really means.
Braid absolutely, but it’s 17yo at this point, any reasonable spoiler policy* has worn off. Meets the criteria, gets you all empathetic for the little shit, Tim, then makes you question it all. I think a first play through is impactful even knowing he’s a villain… It’s not that he’s a villain that is cool, it’s how you find out he’s a villain.
*Except for Outer Wilds the spoiler policy on that is eternal.


Ok, but I fail to see the reasoning behind your comment then.
Agree or not whether there’s an ethical way to consume HP, you believe your opinion on the matter is not morally or ethically authoritative.
I don’t think anyone would have suggested otherwise… There isn’t a comment here saying “but what does minorkeys think”.
Ok. You believe your opinion isn’t ethically or morally authoritive, but it could still have merit.


Dungeon Keeper.
Destroy all humans.
Spec ops the line.
Braid.
Manhunt.


Fixed, thanks for the correction. Ironic “We’re wrong all the time” in a comment containing a factual error.
A bold claim. But edges out the second by just a hair.
