Absolutely ridiculous, to require a DUNS number when so many apps are published by a single person, often for fun or hobby.

Mango is super good and free with most library cards.

I am aware that the font is a divisive choice, lol. I wanted it to look like my scribbles on the page, because that's exactly what it is. Most people I know who read my blog use RSS anyway, and reader mode is a thing that exists.

However, reading over some of these comments, maybe I'll switch it back to Quicksand.

Edit: Fine, I changed it to improve readability.

That’s what I said about Halide, before they moved it to a subscription model.

They don’t since the Costco card changed to Visa

Well, is that normally supposed to happen?

The dolphin game is to allow them to avoid some import/export restrictions by classifying it as a toy, which it is, and not a hacking tool. It’s not a professional device.

Podman was good when it supported systemd unit files, so I could auto start and auto update containers, even entire pods with systemd.

Then they removed that in favor of Quadlet. Now in order to do a single container I can do a unit file, but for a pod, I need to use a Kubernetes cluster definition.

Plus, unlike Docker their containers bow to SELinux definitions, so I have repeatedly struggled with containers unable to access mapped directories.

So what is it, Podman? Should I just use Kubernetes? Should I just make dedicated directories for everything instead of mapping logical places for things?

Me too. I’d love an iPod with classic interface, but it pulls WiFi and Apple Music from my iCloud account and stores my library offline. Nice big output for high end headphones and high end DAC and they’d have a banger.

This is unlikely to succeed, because a)it is an image of their product taken with their own camera - so if Apple wins here the precedent is you can’t take photos OF an iPhone?? Like hell that’s ever going to happen, and Apple would be idiots to do that anyway, seeing your friends in photos with iPhones in clear view is just free advertising and plays into Apples thing for “Apple users are elite”.

And b)Apple’s copyright refers to hardware design. Dbrand didn’t make hardware - they made an image, or skin, or case. None of these are applicable competitors to Apple’s iPhone.

This is why I use Mikrotik. I swear they’re the last brand standing that is actually built tough. Affordable too.

Ships with Android 11…DOA if you ask me. Even e-readers need proper software support.
