From the article:

When we went to our seats, the wait staff let us know that despite the fact that the previews were playing, we wouldn’t know until the movie actually started whether we could see the film or not. If it didn’t work, the screen would just turn black. Luckily, the film went through without a hitch.

Installed a new debian server, installed docker, but then now i have a problem with permissions on passed directories.

On the previous server, the uid/gids inside the docker container match the uid/gid on the real server.

Root is 0, www-data is 33, and so on.

On this new server, instead, files owned by root (0) in the container are translated to 1000 on the server, www-data (33) is 100032, and so on (+1000 appended to the uid)

Is this normal or did I misconfigure something? On the previous server I was running everything as root (the interactive user was root), and i would like to avoid that

I swear that with each update they're adding more and more artificial stupidity

This is genius.

Nobody wants to buy your crypto phone? Your warehouses are full and bills starts piling? Just create some monopoly money and give it to who buys that phone.

So now crypto is not only wasting the electricity for the most inefficient payment method ever created (for Bitcoin it takes a whole day to verify a number of transactions that Visa/Mastercard can do in less than a second) but also producing and shipping a phone all around the world, just for getting that monopoly money, then immediately trash the phone

I have several TB of borg backups. Uploaded them on backblaze b2. I could immediately see how much resources i was using, how many api calls, and so on. Very easy to see and predict the next bill. I can see exactly which bucket uses more resource, and which is growing over time.

Because I'm cheap, I want to upload those files on aws glacier, which theoretically costs a quarter of b2 for storage, but API calls are extremely expensive. So I want to know the details. I won't like to get a bill with $5 in storage and $500 in API calls.

Uploaded a backup, but nowhere in AWS I can see how much resources i am using, how much I'm going to pay, how many API calls, how much the user XYZ spent, and so on.

It looks like it's designed for an approach like "just use our product freely, don't worry about pricing, it's a problem for the financial department of your company".

In AWS console I found "s3 storage lens", but it says i need to delegate the access to someone else because reasons. Tried to create another user in my 1-user org, but after wasting 2 hours I wasn't able to find a way to add those permissions.

Tried to create a dashboard in "AWS cost explorer" but all the indicators are null or zero.

So, how can I see how many API calls and storage is used, to predict the final bill? Or the only way is to pray and wait the end of the month and hopefully there everything it's itemized in detail?

As always, the paying user has the worst experience. "Purchase" a show, can only watch on a certain console of a certain brand, no transfers, no backups, then it suddenly disappears from the library and nothing can be done.

If media companies insist on draconian DRM, then they should pay for full refunds to their loyal customers when one day they decide to delist that specific show.

I am actually shocked that 25% of those shitcoin "games" didn't fail

Who cares if nobody can work, the important is that those illegal streams are blocked

If someone knows how to disable this fuckery, please tell me or i have to install adobe acrobat, it makes me crazy as it floats on all the open PDFs, covering text/content

I guess that means it's dead, as there's no way a corporation would pay millions to acquire a competitor just to continue developing a free alternative to their own product
