I mean… I personally do consider it the second coming of Christ 🤷

How do I give more money than I already have to this pig of a dev who made the Lemmy experience so great to me and countless others such that it is now in the top 10 social apps on the Play store?

That’s Top-10-social-apps-on-the-Play-store shitware app to you

What if you’re both a fanatical sync user and an arch user?

Because that’s me 🙋

I subscribe to RSS feeds for subreddits that don’t exist on Lemmy just so that I don’t give them any clicks or ad revenue.

For answers to questions or problems that are only available on Reddit, I turn on my favorite privacy browser, I hold my breath, go to that specific post, get my answer, and gtfo asap.

Like the saying goes, never stick it in crazy. But if you have to, be protected.

Exactly my current setup :)

If you pay to add a feature to a product that was previously not available, sure, that makes sense. But in this case, at the point of the transaction, and they hand over the keys, the ownership of the product is now 100% transferred to the customer. They should and can do whatever they want with their property. A manufacturer equipping a feature because it’s cheaper is frankly not the customer’s problem.

Imagine buying a house but you only get access to certain rooms. They set the price, the customer just pays for it. If they want to cover the cost of adding the heated seats feature, then add it to the starting price.

Your original reply stated that “including heated seats and making you pay once to access it is fair game” is what prompted my reply. Users shouldn’t be paying for it if it comes with the product, disabled or not.

I have no qualms about subscriptions for FSD due to continuing developments and improvements, and the fact that it requires a service running AI/ML models to operate. However the drastic subscription cost changes over 3 years raises an eyebrow. From $5000 in 2019 to $15000 in 2022 is quite a drastic change. They certainly have the right to price how they want, but definitely an insane pricing model.

unscholarly_source ,

I see where you’re coming from. And I also agree with the subscription heated seats.

I think we might actually be advocating for the same thing lol. I was making the argument that manufacturers should have a one-time price for things that are packaged along with the product (with the exception of features like FSD that requires a continuing service to operate and evolve), but jailbreaking static features like heated seats is fair game.

However, your post got me thinking… If it is reasonable for FSD to be a subscription model, how are FSD updates different than, let’s say, your phone having updates and security patches? We don’t currently pay for new versions of iOS or Android. Granted the complexity and stake of FSD is greater than a phone, it is similar fundamentally

unscholarly_source ,

Would you pay a yearly fee to continue getting updates for your now no longer being updated but perfectly fine otherwise phone? I would.

Good question. At that point I’d explore replacing the OS altogether with GapheneOS or LineageOS.

When it comes to cars though, I don’t find FSD an appealing enough value to continue paying (or even begin to pay in the first place). But to your point, that doesn’t mean Tesla shouldn’t price it how they want and people to buy it if they wish.

unscholarly_source ,

I’m not advocating for anyone to buy a price they’re not comfortable with, but personally I reasoned that, having used Sync for nearly 10 years, it would be like paying 10 bucks for each of those years for an app that I have used the most out of all the apps in my life

Sync was a huge part of my life (will continue to be), and I am happy to compensate for that.

Where can I learn Docker fundamentals?

I jumped into Docker feet first a few months ago and have not had a real good time with it. Networking doesn’t make sense, I can’t ever seem to access config files without dropping to su -, all the tutorials and videos I find are pretty top level and assume the user already has a firm grasp on it. It’s great for drop in...

I took a look at Dashy, I think I see the confusion. If you are looking at this article, then yes they mention Code Server, but that’s purely in the context of using Dashy in a non-docker context. But to be honest, any text editor works.

But I think that’s a red herring. That in itself has nothing to do with docker.

What you’ll need to do, once you understand the fundamentals of running docker, pull images, start a container based on an imagine, is to expose a docker volume that points to /public/conf.yaml. A docker volume ensures that the file or directory it’s mapped to in the container is available and persists outside of the container. This allows you to persist files and directories without losing them once the container stops or restarts.

Once the volume is exposed, then you can use your favorite text editor to update the dashy config file. Code Server is fine, powerful, but overkill.

But first, try getting familiar with pulling, starting stopping docker images using the cli. Gotta start there first before tinkering with docker parameters like volumes.

Portainer is definitely useful (I use it on a daily basis), but probably a bad place to start…

I started with the following progression:

  1. Docker CLI
  2. Docker-Compose
  3. Writing my own scripts to build and manage docker-compose configs (purely optional and skippable)
  4. Portainer
  5. Purely optional, but in a professional setting, kubernetes and various container orchestration tools.

Good luck in your journey!

unscholarly_source ,

That is AWESOME! Congrats!

Yes that’s right, portainer stacks equate to compose… I might be wrong, but I remember reading somewhere a while back that they (and other container orchestration tools) were not permitted to reference “Docker” or its products (including compose) due to legal and licensing restrictions by Docker.

Not to the level of Reddit, but Docker has its fair share of questionable business decisions.

Given the sheer amount of data on Reddit, this is really not feasible nor scalable, nor is a long term solution. A simple CloudFlare configuration will quickly put an end to such a solution.

RSS exists, however only allows you to subscribe to subreddit posts, not comments.

This is why the API changes are such a big deal.

I hope you realize that many innovations we use today on Earth is thanks to innovations created for space exploration. It’s unfortunate that many don’t seem think be able to see that.
