There is somebody making an OCI implementation for BSD that uses jails instead of Linux containers. There is in principle no reason you couldn't use docker (I call it dorker) or something else like it that would just work roughly the same except that no one has finished implementing it.

It has the same problems as Linux did in the 2000s, namely small userbase and small developer base mean there's very poor driver support. Finding hardware that will work is not easy.

In my case there was a driver issue with my network card. The working driver had the same name as the broken driver so I had to rename the kernel module and copy my working one in. Not a good user experience.

I was briefly in a BSD server because I wanted to run it on my NAS so I could use ZFS in it's native environment but needed help debugging some driver issues.

The BSD people in there all hated Linux. It was kind of funny. And they have some pretty fair reasons but it was still funny what a chip they had on their shoulders.

This is I think one of the biggest reasons the dems are so useless as a party. It's not a party, it's a vehicle for individuals to advance themselves. At best, it's a brand.

There's no cohesive goals you can say the dems support. There's no room for one person to make a move that's risky and know the rest will have their back. It's all about individual careers.

Part of this sickness is how obsessed the strategists are with celebrity endorsements. I don't care if Charlie XCX likes kamala and I doubt many of her fans do either. A few weeks ago they were talking about a blitz primary hosted by Taylor swift. First of all why would swift do that, and second off why would people want that?

They don't treat the party as about trying to advance a political agenda, or their voters as people who have political desires. It's just brand management.
