  • I’ve got LXC’s running on my Proxmox host and been playing or working with Linux for 25 years, but on my desktop I’ve always run Windows. Linux is great right up until it isn’t and then I spend more time than I’d like troubleshooting it. On my desktop I just want things to work and Windows does that. I hate the bloatware, spyware and the nagging to switch to Edge, but everything I run, runs, including games with anti-cheat. I’m sure I could get Linux to a similar state, but it would take a lot more effort.




  • I’m stunned that someone like Prigozhin could’ve got to the position he held and thought he was just going to sail off into the sunset after he called off his Moscow Mutiny March. I live in Australia and understand the Russian political machinations about as well as most first graders, but I could’ve told you his time on earth was only going to be slightly longer than Jeffrey Epstein’s once the Belorussian deal was brokered.

    Putin was never going to forgive him for what he did, and the only surprise was that it was a bomb on a plane and not plutonium in his vodka.



  • Unfortunately it’s the nature of dictators. When they start to feel under pressure because of the economy etc they point over there and say “that country is the reason we are struggling, we should take their stuff, everything will be better if we do.”

    Unfortunately this the sort of thing the UN should be dealing with, but they can’t because of bureaucracy / corruption / incompetence, take your pick.
