I guess my point is.. if they were really to wait for X months and then start to release physical media (again, I can't see the financial incentive for them to do it), but it would really put a big split between: 1) people that buy tha

Some backstory - I like gaming quite a bit - but more of a personal archivalist. I have basically all games I've ever played on physical media and try to keep someway to play them offline - just jailbroke my 360 to be able to play game

Honestly, this is just awesome. I've spent quite a long time looking at artifact storage, both for work and for personal use and this project literally scratches that itch. So featureful (assuming they're not placeholders ;) ) and

I agree this doens't seem too ambiguous - it's "you may do this.." and they said "or we may do the reverse". If I say you're could prefix something.. the alternative isn't that you can suffix it. But

It's interesting seeing parts of life overlap. I did music production at the same time as heavily using SVN and starting to use Git - I didn't cross this over at the time. All (in my case) Cubebase files were just -1, -2 suffixes

I originally wrote the speach in my blog repo, just for writing purposes. My dad's funeral was yesterday and wondered, maybe, someone might appreciate it - either because they've lost their dad or it makes them appreciate their da

Sure, you're right in most cases. In the use-case I had, it's a private registry with "immutable" tags (at least enough to stop accidental overwrites - and it is a homelab, so if someone else did it, I'd have worse

Absolutely, needs-and-musts, it's certainly not a nice thing.. but again, Terraform isn't a scripting language, so sometimes bits of hack are needed!

Good point - I hadn't actually looked massively hard into solving it with this provider - I had to do it again for another use-case recently and decided to blog about it (and also try my hand at a short post).. but used this example fr

I would say yes and no (leaning on the no)... I think saying you don't have a right is fine... they are providing a service and dictating it's usage and you are using it. So on the "closing your eyes". On one side, yes,

I see what you mean.. but if you take a look at vista vs 7.. Microsoft shoved glass panels, widgets and such down the user's throat in Vista. It was a new look and they wanted to make you realise it. Without spinning a fresh 7 machine

I can see that they're adding their own license, which contains their license for the code within the repo. But nothing around licenses for packages that they're installing within the Docker images (unless I'm missing somethi

I do completely agree - the main problem I had was that, I tried doing this whilst writing the blog post side-by-side and was aware that the more complex it became, the harder it would be to show it. If I'd use separate files for the H
