I actually have a solution for your problem. Change distros:

https://search.nixos.org/packages?channel=25.05&from=0&size=50&sort=relevance&type=packages&query=docker

all kinds of docker versions and you don’t have to do any manual steps

I have an issue with pre-roll ads. Some of them are extremely long and can’t be skipped

Don’t download .exe files, the video files have a different extension.

I’d have to also back up /etc/apt/preferences.d

Much easier to just copy and paste a block of commands when I get a VPS up

I want to conveniently share setups between my desktop and laptop. If you do this manually you will find out one both have small differences

At the same time, I may document that this computer works better with pipewire (or with pulse, depends on which one has issues) and commit to the repository

But then you need the pins and repositories you had before. I end up pasting a long ass chain of commands every time I get a VPS up just to set it up.

Me too, the windows drive is in the garage

I always have Google if it’s natural maps

Yeah, like if they did something crazy, like sponsored Kayak links

You realize Iran forces gays to transition to female, routinely kills protestors and women who won’t cover their hair? Not to mention supplying weapons to Russia to kill Ukrainian civilians

Is this the hill you want to die on?

East Slavic languages only differ by the choice of i/y letters and Belarusian’s short u, Ukrainian yi and ye letters (and technically the apostrophe). You can have a combined Ukrainian and Russian alphabet keyboard. I have it on Heliboard

Bulgarian uses the er golyam/hard sign as a vowel, which it used to be in every Slavic language in the past. Macedonian is mutually intelligible, but uses an alphabet similar to BCS Cyrillic.

Pirate it

In corporate world managers get fired for not completing projects

The industrial revolution is what made socialism possible, since now a smaller amount of workers can support the elderly, children, etc.

Just look at China before and after industrializing. Life expectancy way up, the government can provide services like public transit and medicine (for a nominal fee)

It’s either broken and not capable or takes jobs.

You can’t be both useless and destroying jobs at the same time

Reads like a rant against the industrial revolution. “The industry is only concerned about replacing workers with steam engines!”
