Al Gore is still alive!

It feels just as odd to say “a component of fuel consuming engines called a catalytic converter”. You’re missing the point.

I need to look more into this, I would’ve thought query time on hash tables was already constant.

It just feels bizarre. You wouldn’t say something like “a car part called a catalytic converter”.

Still! A screen changing is still something that grabs your attention.

But you can’t just magically remotely view somewhere you can’t see.

Then you don’t know where he is!

This reminds me of Shrek when Pinocchio gets around lying by saying “I don’t know where he’s not,” but if you think about it for one second you’ll see that knowing where someone is also means you know where they aren’t at. So it’s still a lie.

Conversely, if it was presented in a more user friendly way, perhaps more people would know what they were doing.

You’re probably talking about Docker Desktop. It may not be on Linux (or at least your distro or whatever) because it’s not actually FLOSS. If you want to use Docker with a GUI I’ve had success with Rancher Desktop which is made by SUSE and is FLOSS. It’s still Docker (unlike podman which is not technically Docker), but it has a GUI for some stuff too.

I tried installing Docker Desktop at work and realized the license doesn’t actually allow that without paying. It was weirdly difficult to install Docker by itself on Mac so that led me to finding Rancher Desktop.

It’s not about what serialization format, it’s about what possible values there are for each field.

do you have a proposal for a solution, or is this just a rant post?

I think this post captures a commonly felt problem whether or not it is still a fair criticism.

Does Windows 11 still use the Windows 7 control panel?

Same! I thought I wouldn’t be able to play any competitive PVP games!

Y’all, for real, I was on Windows for gaming. Gaming on Linux really does seem to “just work” now. I’m using CachyOS. It just works. The only tweak I had to do was to tell Helldivers 2 to use the vanilla version of Proton instead of Cachy’s version. So literally if I was on a more traditional distribution I’d have to do less.
