I already explained why it is not, so I cannot take your rejection into consideration without a sound argument.

This isn’t an American only thing. You’re comparing to Russia, the former leading Communist power. Not many places would rival Russia in this respect, especially countries that fought tooth and nail against communism.

Curious why arch for a server. How’s your experience with it?

That’s just a bandaid on capitalism’s issues. Urging people not to support the biggest actor will never work in the grand scheme of things, when said actor provides their best immediate interests.

Wouldn’t get used by corps probably?

Yes as it is almost the same category as mastodon

I agree, Israel has committed far too much horror to be ignored, but at the same time I wouldn’t consider them to be representing any “religious group”. They only represent themselves and their supporters, some of which are diverse in religious background.

Corbyn is yet another proof of the hopelessness of Western electoral politics. Just merely viewing Arabs as human gets you disqualified and destroys your political career, when he was a major reason for the party’s success to begin with.

Isn’t it enough to have a single offsite backup?

Please demonstrate how the example I gave above can be done with common scripting tools, such it would mimic the declarative experience I described. I don’t think it is possible as you claim.

Can you please point to where I deflected any questions? I looked and could not find any instances of such.

I actually answered the question “why”, please refer to previous comments. It is also answered in the main post. But I will rephrase and summarize again here:

• when creating a container image that requires certain applications installed, most dockerfiles explicitly install the dependencies of said applications as well. With my tool, you only declare the package you need, and it will resolve dependencies automatically and install them for you.
• the above would work with distroless containers too, as the package manager used is outside of the produced container.
