I think I made myself pretty clear.

this is assuming the only thing the server is running is linux apache mysql and php; but you'd just write your PHP code and create a package like an RPM or what have you, that deploys it to the right place, and your configs for the rest of things would also either be their own packages, or managed by some script or puppet.

It all depends i guess. I suppose it probably is much easier to manage if you just compose some images, than if you say "you gotta configure the machine" because if you can abstract away much of that stuff into containers then you're not stuck on one distro of linux, so i get why people use docker (which I call dorker btw).

I do think containers are a bandaid for having too many dependencies or a workaround for people who don't want to make their software easy to deploy. Like you shouldn't have to ship an entire inner OS with runtime and everything, it should just compile and run. Sometimes that's not feasible for valid reasons, but often it's a way to get away with having a bad release process or having your software too complicated to set up.

I worked with it like 8 years ago and didn't like it; that's just down to it being much less mature back then, and also me not wanting to learn it.

The OCI standard is pretty mature now and there's a lot better tooling. I should stop being a curmudgeon and learn how to use it to be honest, but i'm a grouch who likes to do things the old way.

i think docker's API is stupid; it's a bad wrapper around linux containers but there's not an actually good wrapper around it. so OCI is the best we have. and OCI is just like... docker but meant to be more open of a standard so we don't need docker specifically.

Containers are a good idea but I just don't like the tooling.

i call it dorker

I own several items, some of which I like, some of which I think are too low of quality but not low enough that I get rid of them.

you're not gonna like this but you have a mathematical mind and you'd be good at programming if you wanted to do it. I'm sorry to say this. But unfortunately your ability to break down a complex problem into the most basic version and work backwards from there is a very valuable skill.

love you too, twovests, thanks for bein a pal

I encourage you to follow your heart regarding the 8 hotdog challenge

I really want to get a Webbed Site but i can't think of anything to put on it, so I never have.

doesn't the fact that it eats androgens mean it's demasculinizing? and since it destroys estrogens, it's defeminizing? So it's forced nonbinarification, no?

I didn't say it would be a good or balanced spell

Are the expansions good? I've heard extremely mixed reviews. I'm still working my way through the vanilla version
