Docker kinda does it by being like an app store but for servers. It’s not very flexible but everyone using a particular image gets the same experience.

Customizing all-in-one distros is a shitty uphill battle that isn’t worth the trouble, so I get how Arch is worth the work there. But recommending a kit car when people are asking for a commuter just bugs me.

Yeah, that’s pretty much it. I don’t want to use a kit/show car for commuting.

Arch, I want to get some work done not save 3 extra CPU cycles on boot.

Canadian here, no, not at all. I had a family doctor but they retired, the new doctor was already full up so I am left without a family doctor. If I need medication it has to be paid for out of pocket, any dentistry that is not life altering (cleaning, fillings, braces/retainers/corrections) has to be paid for out of pocket. Therapy? Out of pocket. Glasses, hearing aids, you guessed it.

Sure you could have a job with health coverage but that is up to the discretion of your employer, they can drop your coverage and all you can do is nothing. Canadian health care is an absolute embarrassment and should never be celebrated as some achievement over the only country with a worse system than ours.

With soft areas going at 4mm per year I wonder if it could be measured by an average person using consumer tech. Uneven changes at the base of a tall building could be magnified to a couple cm at the top year to year.
