Why someone keeps chasing the latest gadgets when the old ones work just fine is beyond me.

Nobody is waiting every year for the brand new line of washing machines. Why is there a need to swap phones this frequently?

I imagine it wouldn’t take long until someone finds a way to disable that LED.

The CEO of Unity was also CEO, COO, and president of EA. So, is anyone surprised?

Or even better: buy soon to expire put options just before the announcement. 10x your money.

You’re welcome!

I can have a look in my free time for fun. Will let you know if I manage to do it. 😅

Damn… that’s rough.

Hopefully they’ll backpedal on this decision for now (they are already getting a lot of flack). But I guess the message has been sent. Wouldn’t be surprised if Unity starts bleeding users after this.

Best of luck!

For the studios releasing a game in a few months, it’s probably too late to ditch unity, but would make sense to start looking at alternatives for their next projects.

Wouldn’t be surprised if Godot explodes in popularity in the next 5 years.

According to the article, it’s not retroactively charged, but still bad if your game is about to come out and you haven’t accounted for this.

The margins on the gamedev industry are not that large, you should read some testimonies from veterans. It’s a ruthless industry.

Games take years to make, and you can’t change engines now if your game is about to come out.

Sorry for the delay in the reply.

No need to apologize! Thank you for working on this. :)

The only issue is that the app requires that the config file and blocklist and allowlists should be included within the docker hub. So the issue is that if a prebuilt image is provided, then is it possible to edit it within the docker container ?? If so then it is ok, otherwise it would still be good, but it would limit the usage to users who are by default satisfied by the default config. While others would still need to build the image manually, which is not very great.

I’m not familiar with the websurfix codebase, but I don’t see why it wouldn’t work.

I’m currently self-hosting SearXNG on a VPS, but I started by having it just locally. The important bit of that blog post is this:

docker run -d --rm \
              -d -p 8080:8080 \
              -v "${HOME}/searxng:/etc/searxng" \
              -e "BASE_URL=http://localhost:8080/" \
              searxng/searxng

I use the -v flag to mount a directory in my home to the config directory inside the docker container. SearXNG then writes the default config files there, and I can just edit them normally on ~/searxng/.

By using a mounted volume like this, the configs are persistent, so I can restart the docker container without losing them.

Ah cool, thanks!

Will definitely try it now. It’s good to have options (Searx just recently became unmaintained).

Are there any plans to have an official docker hub image? I’m asking because my workflow involves keeping the containers up to date with watchtower.

Genuinely curious, what would the advantages be?

Also, what if the Linux distro does not have systemd?

I think they are talking about docker containers.

Yes.

All my self hosted containers are bound to some volume (since they require reading settings or databases).

True.

But I assume OP was already running docker from that user, so they are comfortable with those permissions.

Maybe should have made it clearer. Added to my other post. Thanks!

Interesting, I’ll be keeping an eye on this. Thanks for sharing!

I’m currently self hosting SearXNG. The must-have features for me are the custom filters and the actively maintained docker image. Will definitely give it a go if they get implemented.

You shouldn’t need sudo to run docker, just can create a docker group and add your user to it. This will give you the steps on how to run docker without sudo.

Edit: as pointed out below, please make sure that you’re comfortable with giving these permissions to the user you’re adding to the docker group.

For the littering part, just type crontab -e and add the following line:

@daily docker system prune -a -f

I have written nothing implying that, no.

From the very first reply, you implied that the argument that the EFF made was wrong, and that this precedent could not be used to block women’s access to abortion: “It’s incredibly easy for an ISP to point out that they’re not going to block a network for a different reason by pointing out it’s… not the same reason. Banning abortion information is not the same thing as banning a harassment network that’s causing deaths.”

I’ve said the EFF’s argument is bullshit because the US government cannot enforce the laws the EFF says could be used. Not that they don’t exist, but that this is an international network that heavily uses anonymity. The US government likely cannot at all, and if it can can only do expensively and slowly, too slowly to prevent deaths, ban this website.

If that’s the case, how did they get Ross Ulbricht? He ran a darkweb marketplace, in theory, harder to pin down than something on the clearnet like Kiwi Farms.

The same precedent that bans Kiwi Farms at the ISP level, could be used to block women’s access to safe abortion, causing deaths as well. And no, I’m not gonna take your word for it that it can be avoided in court in the future. You’re just some rando on the internet with no legal expertise, unlike the EFF.

I’m all in favor in prosecuting people responsible for peoples’ deaths and shutting down that website, but not by using something that could cause harm to others in the future.
