   the most common complaint i see people have with Docker is the quip "it works on my machine => i'll ship my machine" but this is literally the _least_ of the issues with Docker

   every new thing i learn about Docker and container infrastructure as a whole is somehow more upsetting than the previous one. the entire thing is bad. OCI is bad. none of it is well-designed, most of it makes barely any sense at all, hardly any can be reasonably run at scale

     @whitequark docker export operates on containers and docker save on images. I think.

     @whitequark sure you can, just add another layer of insane complexity on top of it (kubernetes).

     @whitequark at least it doesn’t have both --dryrun and --dry-run that turn off different parts of actually doing the thing

     @whitequark This makes me feel a bit vindicated that I opted to go the proxmox vms route for the friends & damily server @.@

     (Even though proxmox is its own royal pain in the ass)
