A half decent NAS, with Dockerised *rr is the gold standard of torrenting. I never knew it could be so painless.

Adoption on desktop is 100% more related to Steam support, at least in the gaming segment.

Anecdotally, among friends and colleagues, people are only staying with Windows for gaming support.

People generally dislike Windows but are forced to stay their for gaming. As support for Linux improves, they'll be less willing to put up with Windows' BS.

I'm one of the rare people on HN who likes using windows as a software development platform

The VTTES plugin for Firefox/Chrome allows for importing/exporting between OrcPub/DungeonMastersVault, Foundry, and roll20 formats.

Worth checking out if you could support one of those as an import target.

> You cannot have a labor union and still be a successful company. Unions are cancer.

Hard disagree.

Every German carmaker has unions. The US is just not capable of integration.

If the government knows somebody is a danger to children, they can't just have kids. In the UK at least, they'll be taken into state social care.

Because people caught on that it's a terrible idea with terrible (unstated) goals.

That's pretty much what's been happening for the last decade. I turned off search history an age ago and I've had a slightly tailored (based on subscriptions) but mostly generic home page since them.

It's not a cas where they can't. They decide on this course of action.

On a related note, they already show an (almost) totally generic feed for Shorts. If you turn search history off, you see a lot of Andrew Tate, anti-trans, and "masculinity is under attack" messaging. It's disgusting to think that's what Google are showing to new sign users.

To be clear, the copyright strike is for a small two second animation in the middle of a much larger video.

The correct course of action here is for Mr Beast to apologize to the animation owner (AO) and to reupload the video with the animation removed. Or, to license the animation.

YouTube should then lift demonization.

AO didn't suffer any damage so there's no compensation owed. Legally, AO might be able to chase this but the payout will likely be far less than the court costs.

Mr Beast seems to be a pretty upstanding guy, so I wouldn't be surprised if he licensed the animation for a generous price.

Ultimately, it was the editor who messed up so the Mr Beast team need to review their processes.

How many people would have said the same about Linus Sebastion before Gamers Nexus' Steve Burke pointed out how they treated Billet Labs?

Mr. Beast's actual job is cultivating a public persona. Being good at that doesn't make him a good person.

Having watched plenty of both of their videos, if I had to guess which was an asshole I’d have guessed Linus.

Most videos like this make the majority of their money in the first few days. If they get demonetized, they're effectively dead. Considering the huge costs involved, that's pretty bad.

I'm not 100% sure the problem you're trying to solve, but I've solved a similar sounding one that may be of use to you too.

We needed to set env vars on React applications (the frontend) inside Docker containers. The containers were going to be built in CI/CD, and we didn't want different builds for each environment.

We solved this by adding a small JS script that is included in the base HTML. It pushes env vars into the window object, so they're accessible from window.env.

The JS file is generated by a Bash script that's ran whenever the container starts (by modifying the entry-point.sh file used by Nginx's Docker image).

The Bash script loads enumerates any environment variable with a given prefix.

Docker already allows you to set runtime environment variables from the run command, or via Docker Compose.

Im the end, the developer experience comes down to "docker run image:tag -e PREFIX_FOO=BAR".
