As far as I understood, the app only contains a token proving you are 18 or older. Nothing more…

So what potential breach is he taking about?

Or did I miss something?

One boat stuck in a canal has had the same effect on other industries.

And AI upscaling?

I got both. Of it doesn’t run wel on the deck, I just stream it from the PC.

You know what, next device I can (host)name will be the Muse. :D

Indeed ;⁠)

I use concepts of games I like. Right now Alan Wake and Pacific Drive are the two of them.

• Main Laptop: Typewriter
• Steam deck: Poet
• NAS: The Lake
• Main Pc, that has become more a render station since I mostly work on a laptop and game on a steam deck: Lighthouse
• Hue Hub: Light switch
• Phone: Flashlight

But when I started to be more interested in networking and installed openwrt on my router, I was more infatuated by Pacific Drive:

• Router: Outer Containment Wall
• WiFi 5/2.4 Dual: ARDAnet
• WiFi for iot: RemnantNet
• GuestNet: OEZone
• VPN: BreacherNet
• Switch: SparkTower

I am no expert. But I think there is an ‘easier’ way too manage this with an overlay filesystem.

Have an immutable base with all permissions set. When a session is started have it be done in an in-memory overlay. On logout drop the overlay.

This might be easier if you don’t want to rely on cronjobs. But as I have no experience myself setting this up… ‘easier’ should be taken with a grain of salt. I just took inspiration from docker.

That is awesome. I prefer podman, despite what my list might suggest.

I work somewhere that doesn’t have licensing with Docker Inc. And I work on a Mac. With Docker desktop out of the picture, I got some experience with the alternatives. I know this post is about the native implementation and not the VM one, but I just wanted to add my 2 cents:

Alternatives run by me: Podman, Rancher Desktop, Finch

Results:

• Podman uses a lot more energy on idle than Finch and Rancher. On AVG 4 more Wats on an M1. (Normal idle is about 5W, so 9 almost doubles it cutting greatly in my battery life)
• Podman and Finch are not compatible with some tools that expect a full docker sock. In my case the AWS CDK and SAM CLI have issues. (Which is fun as Finch is also made by AWS)
• Finch does not offer a sock at all
• Finch requires you to recreate the full VM when updated.
• If you really want to have a drop-in replacement for Docker Desktop, use Rancher Desktop. Rancher lacks in UI and the extension feature. But I never had issues with the sock, as I can run it with containerd.
• Finch has no UI
• Podman’s VM has clock drift if you put your machine in sleep. Only solution I found is to reboot the podman VM.
• Podman allows you to log in the VM with a command. I haven’t found a way on the others.
