The doc says

Make sure you have both docker and docker-compose(>=1.24.0) installed. On Ubuntu, just run apt install docker-compose docker.io.

and I have,

$ docker-compose -v
docker-compose version 1.25.0, build unknown

However, I don't have docker.io, because

The following packages have unmet dependencies:
 containerd.io : Conflicts: containerd
                 Conflicts: runc
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be caused by held packages.

I am a bit wary about uninstalling containerd and runc, because I have a few other docker containers running on the VPS and I don't want to break them. What is the difference between docker.io and the regular docker package? Is it why docker-compose throws an error?

Writing on paper does not throw hard to decipher errors though

 

I am trying to install Lemmy with Docker. I followed the instructions here but I get the following error message:

ERROR: The Compose file './docker-compose.yml' is invalid because:
Invalid top-level property "x-logging". Valid top-level sections for this Compose file are: version, services, networks, volumes, secrets, configs, and extensions starting with "x-".

It says extensions start with "x-", so I assume that I need to install some extension regarding to logging. This is straightforward, but apparently I haven't been able to find the right keywords to ask Google...

Could anyone point me to this required extension and how to install it?

The cursive thing is US-only. The speed highly depends on the type of notes you're taking (with or without sketches, with or without equations, etc.).

On the other hand, taking notes with a lot of equations is cumbersome with a computer, and straightforward with paper and pen. I also can't do any serious maths without paper, e.g. playing with equations. It flows naturally with pen and paper, it is just horrible with a computer, unless you actually defer the equation solving to the computer using dedicated symbolic math software which is very useful, but that's not always what you want to do.

I don't think so for the reasons other have mentionned. But also, climate change is going to get us to favor low-tech ways to do things. I don't think that the over-reliance on technology is sustainable in the long run. I wouldn't even be surprised personnally if there were to be a global collapse of internet connectivity. It seems very fragile to me: the optical fibers in the ocean can be easily damaged, the datacenters can run out of power, political change in some countries may lead to connection to the outside to be severed or unusable. That is one of the reasons also why I don't personnally trust big platforms to store personal data that I wish to save.

That is because bottle of water are overpriced in restaurants, as are all drinks. So this is their way of making money when the meal alone isn’t enough for them to be profitable. I don’t like this, they should charge the meal what they need. In France they are required by law to provide free tap water when requested.

I remember reading once (perhaps from UFC Que Choisir, a French consumer association), that filtering decreased the quality of water (in France), because the tap water quality was very good and controlled, your filter not so much, and it may develop bacteria.

To answer the original question, I always drink tap water in France, and have never once boiled it. I know people who filter it. I sometimes put it in the fridge if I want it colder. I’ve also drank tap water directly in the UK and in Germany. I would in any European country.

Unlike the Tuvix episode, nobody holds it to Spock that he killed Kreeper without his consent…

These posts are great. Thank you for posting.

I run my own Mastodon instance, but I haven’t been able to configure a lemmy instance. The readme is not currently as user-friendly as the one for Mastodon. I will try again sometime later if it’s improved.
