Classic big. You just have to set the MANIPULATE env var to false in the container. It's true by default.

Lottery is needed, as it finances time travel.

For all of computing eternity, the only person I've ever heard refer to it as a "diskette" is icon-lady Susan Kare.

Diskette or disquete was a popular term in Spain for floppies, both 3 and 5 inches. In fact everyone called the disk drive "disquetera".

It's an Open Source project - I don't understand what people are complaining about. Noone is entitled to receive free Docker images. I'm sure if there is enough demand, someone else who is trustworthy will step up and automate building them.

What I'd like to complain about instead is the pricing page on the Min.io webpage - it doesn't list any pricing. Looking at https://cloudian.com/blog/minios-ui-removal-leaves-organizat... it seems the prices are not cheap at all (minimum of $96,000 per year). Note that Cloudian is a competitor offering a closed-source product.

But a properly built image is a nice part of a product release.

Building a quality production ready image is not trivial, and it's always welcomed from the vendor.

I honestly can't see any upside whatsoever in creating AI Simulacra of dead people. It kind of disgusts me actually.

Not my upside, but there is a big one: money.

Astronomy usually has that kind of "Lovecraftian" sense of cosmic insignificance when you put things to sacale. Also, being alone at 3am in the middle of nowhere, cold and kind of sleepy, looking at a gas cloud lightyears away, adds to it. But it is also fascinating.

Was just going to mention the MagLab, which all the locals think controls the weather and keep hurricanes away, so much so they have to say it does not in the FAQ:
