While true, apple remains the bigger hurdle here. They don't seem even willing to cooperate.

I love Raku (formerly perl 6) for this purpose as well.

I use podman, even when I started out. But I am a tinkerer. I think for the average beginner, docker will be easier as so much out there assumes you are using Docker only, and hard codes it. Unless you wanna deal with that, use Docker.

I studied chemical engineering in university, but I realized it wasn't what I hoped.

What I hoped: sitting at a desk, drawing schematics, crunching numbers, designing chemical plants, coming up with smart ideas, etc.

What it actually was: walking around a chemical plant or factory and managing plant operators (they knew way more than I did).

It turns out programming is exactly what I hoped from chemical engineering. I love solving problems from the comfort of a desk.

Math was always my favorite subject in school, and it seems programming is a type of applied maths.

That's a good idea. Is there a way to make that as easy to use as Chromecast? Currently I operate Chromecast using its remote and just play something. I can use the remote or my phone to pause or rewind. Can I do something similar using my PC, without having to reach for the keyboard?

Some package managers do have differences that justify a separate project (nix, gentoo's portage, etc).

For others, sometimes package managers are very similar feature-wise. But some developers would rather remake the thing because they would understand their code a lot better than someone else's. Or because it would be far easier for them to customize rather than extend another project.

Imo it is developer laziness. Being able to use other people's work is a valuable skill. But then again, this is open source, and people are free to develop the software they want the way they want.

There are still a lot of gun homocides. Mass shootings are only part of the story.

Who's willing to scale it up? China probably

I find odysee having the same issue, but I agree with you.

I prefer PeerTube

Update: Israel violated the deal... Again.

This is like the 3rd time they say that. Will they bomb the humanitarian aid trucks and corridors again?

It's quite evident that Israel's goal is the eradication of Palestinians, yet people out there believe it is the opposite.
