Weak one. Let’s ideate on a better version

Virtualization was supposed to reduce the overhead, not create entire DevOps departments.
-
Years of containerization yet no real use over
make clean; make build
-
Wanted to deploy your app in the “cloud” anyways for a laugh? We had a tool for it, it’s called
rsync
-
Let’s run a virtual container in
--privileged
mode, so we can manage system resources from it – Statements dreamt up by utterly Deranged
Look at what tech interviews have been demanding your Respect for all these years. (These are real documentation examples for how a simple virtualization supposedly works)

Hello, I would like to put 20 Terabytes of “images” into my

, please!They played us for absolute fools!

Your version is better than OP
The owner of the site does not allow hotlinking to the resource.
And who’s gonna stop us?
Cloudflare, apparently
And I feel like this is going to be my new
Find My IP

Seriously?
agree or disagree with facts and arguments.
Right now it’s not clear if your reaction is pointed towards the privileged mode or towards its criticism.
You don’t support superposition yet?
…I mean, not running monitoring software as container, would be an idea.

Docker exists because most programming languages don’t give a shit about producing easily executable outputs.
Nobody cares about your stupid python egg or ruby gem. How do I run it on my local?
Docker is still useful even for apps that compile to a single executable, as the app may still depend on a particular environment setup, particular libraries being available, etc.
How do I run it on my local?
spin a dock…
Pack it with the interpreter in an executable.
Containers are a great way run applications.
Docker is a piece of garbage by a company way too far down the enshittification slide.
Meme gave me a laugh. XD
I see people not happy with Docker as a company, and, I get that, tech co. Lol
But I gotta admit, it’s definitely been awesome for self hosting. My home server would probably just be OpenMediaVault and a Samba share if I couldn’t just spin up compose files and had to worry about every app wanting its own database and stuff!
Are there better alternatives for newbs who just wanna self host stuff?

Docker is great for a beginner, and even for an expert too. I’ve been self-hosting for 20 years and love Docker.
Back in “the old days”, we’d use Linux-VServer to containerize stuff. It was a bit like LXC is today. You get a container that shares the same kernel, and have to install an OS inside it. The Docker approach of having an immutable container and all data stored in separate volumes was a game changer. It makes upgrades so much simpler since it can just throw away the container and build a new one.
The main alternative to Docker is Podman. Podman uses the same images/containers as Docker - technically they’re “OCI containers” and both Docker and Podman implement the OCI spec.
Podman’s architecture is different. The main difference with Podman is that it never runs as root, so it’s better for security. With Docker, you can either run it as root or in rootless mode, but the default is running it as root.
Wow, I really appreciate you taking the time. I’m bookmarking this. Thanks, Dan!
As I look to upgrade or re-factor the server a bit, I’m gonna take a closer look at Podman. Not running as root by default sounds extremely sensible!
I tried that with a few of my Docker containers with results ranging from “Did it actually do it?” to “Nice job breaking it, hero.” Lol
OMV has a really nice Docker GUI built in, but I’d much rather be ready to understand the open-for-all solution if I could. :)
Hope you have a great one!
(Chorus) Heave ho, Docker, and sail the binary sea, With containers all lined up, so light and free. From the code to the cloud, we’ll go with ease, In our trusty Docker ships, we sail the seas.
(Verse 1) Oh, the devs were a-struggling, in a stormy plight, With dependencies broken, things weren’t quite right. Then Docker sailed in, with a promise so bold, Of consistent environments, as good as gold.
(Chorus) Heave ho, Docker, and sail the binary sea, With containers all lined up, so light and free. From the code to the cloud, we’ll go with ease, In our trusty Docker ships, we sail the seas.
(Verse 2) We build and we ship, with our Docker compose, In our microservices, our confidence grows. With images light and containers so tight, We deploy in the morning, and sleep sound at night.
(Chorus) Heave ho, Docker, and sail the binary sea, With containers all lined up, so light and free. From the code to the cloud, we’ll go with ease, In our trusty Docker ships, we sail the seas.
Just curious: was this based off an existing song and if so, what is it?
This meme but unironically
I use podman and have absolutely no idea what I am doing. Send help
If you’re doing it right, containers are less like VMs and more like cgroups. If orchestrated correctly it uses less system resources to run lots of services on a single system/node.
That said, I’m a devops/infrastructure/network professional and not a developer, so maybe I’m missing something from the dev experience… But I love containers.
Docker does kinda suck now, though. Use podman or another interface instead if you can help it.
If done correctly, it also forces devs to write smaller more maintainable packages.
Big if though. I’ve seen many a terrible containerized monolithic app.
I’ve seen many a terrible containerized monolithic app.
I’ve seen plenty of self-hosters complain when an app needs multiple containers, to the point where people make unofficial containers containing everything. I used to get downvoted a LOT on Reddit when I commented saying that separating individual systems/daemons into separate containers is the best practice with Docker.
Separate containers works like a dream when one app starts shitting the bed, gets auto-cycled, and everyone else just chills. Not surprised on the Reddit downvotes though. That place is so culty, especially now.
Why is docker bad now and what makes pdoman better?
I see but I do wonder if docker has so many more cves partly because it has way more users.
It seems that Podman is more lightweight. Less code = less errors. And there are some architectural differences. But i’m only googling stuff.
hahahahahahaj I don’t know if it is funny because it is absurd or if it is funny because there are some folks out there that really think like that hahahahah
This meme format works best to absurdly overstate the uselessness of something you find mildly annoying. That’s when it’s funniest, because the criticisms are grounded in something real, and the low-stakes controversy makes the aggressive tone funny in context.
I wish I understood this because it seems funny
It’s not that funny.
Docker is like a virtual machine, but you only run one specific program in it. About exactly what the meme describes.
You ain’t missing much
Moral of the story: never make breaking changes. Always backwards compatible, always.
It’s worked for Windows?
When you’re 90% of the market you get away with telling everyone else to suck your dick.

That’s one of my dilemmas. Due to using BSD and relying on jails I have a hard time using lots of possibly nice apps being released nowadays because they only offer the docker way of installing.
pledge() and unveil() were already compiled into the chat client
I don’t like containerisation because it leads to bullshit like atomic distros. I don’t want a spicy Android.
Steam OS has some cool elements like the menu, the in-game side panels and the game mode/desktop dichotomy, but incremental rolling release is utterly deranged from my POV as an Arch user (btw).
If stability is deranged then yes.
As someone having used Arch, stuff does break at times and Valve can’t link a Wiki link with the fixes
Say Plasma “breaks” - a wiki will not help fast enough.
I’m not trying to defend rolling release for a gaming console, but give me at least the option to decide for myself whether I’m ok with breakage or not. There is this kernelspace NT driver that I wanted to try, but I couldn’t because pacman is locked.
I’m currently trying Fedora Kinoite and from the get go the hassle of getting a proper Firefox+codecs to watch online videos feels like a major step back.
Then you have the issue of installing software in flatpack (is: vscode, texmaker) that are either not fully working of need to have their access tweaked. Atomic distros appeal is to “just work” it doesn’t seem like it does.
Steam OS isn’t an incremental rolling release, right?
Kubernetes: I will ruin your fucking life
I’ve recently spent a fair amount of time trying to peel my blog away from my existing framework due to how much I hated using docker to just build a website, it doesn’t need to be this heavyweight.
Reading about all the security issues in Docker lately, i’m thinking about using LXC via Incus/Proxmox. Should i? Or podman?
I just put my docker services in a lxc container. Docker is neat and lets me deploy shit without having to worry. Works pretty well, just remember to put your lxc containers on your SSD and not your raid mass storage (my hdds have errors now, fuck)
