LXC is garbage too - containers plus all the pain of package management and no proper version control. If you want containers then use OCI, end of story.

All I want for Christmas is never to hear Mariah Carey again

Huh, only on Firefox? Time to swap user agent.

Amazon blocked the right click menu to open pages in a new tab on mobile. Now I have to learn what they did and hack around it. What a waste of time just to force a sinister UI pattern on customers.

The latest answer to "is the US sexist and racist" has arrived. A convicted criminal and rapist instead of a competent woman of colour.

UPS - the next day service that always fails to deliver the parcel. What a joke.

@JessTheJessJess @thameswater If only there was a company who owned the infrastructure who could fix the drainage and sewer system instead of cleaning the mess and waiting for the next time. Know anyone @thameswater ?

@virtualstephen Same shit different day. Children going to school through overflowing sewage in Lloyd park. (W3W ropes.wooden.tree) This is not a new problem @thameswater!!!! "Heavy rain" is not a good enough response!! #thameswater #sewage

#thameswater flooding us with #sewage #sewer again. Reported 5+ times and no fix. No maintenance. Pavement covered with toilet roll and worse.

@thameswater Manhole cover is the source, please see location in first post. Public property.

@virtualstephen Hi there, we'll be happy to look into this. Does the flooding appear to be coming from any specific source such as a manhole cover? - Dave

@thameswater @EnvAgency more sewage flooding onto the path as kids walk to school through it what3words.com/verbs.wisely.o…

Go Microsoft! Still failing hard

Parent obsessed with filming one child in the park while the other snaps branches off trees. Sad.

Started a new podcast a while ago, pleased to announce our first guest on the show - Adrian Mouat joins us to discuss securing containers and staying on top of software security. youtu.be/1o4Qx0L2NGo

We have to cut the blossoms from a tree by the road because people snap branches off as they walk past. This is why we can't have nice things.

Amongst the Christian martyrs, Saint Solo's trial in carbonite is often forgotten.

Once more, to #cloudcamp

Nepo babies - what did Jesus really do?

Probably the last time that VMware "rocked". I was there in 2007 when Paul Maritz arrived and a slew of hasty acquisitions were added to fill out the portfolio. Found it in a drawer. Sad memories.

@nixcraft Jira plays into the hands of clueless managers by promising metrics for developers to enter which will be used to punish the same developers later. Fundamentally an illustration that middle management fail to understand software development and want easy answers.

Please clarify why Jira software is so unpopular among devs.
