Gróf Chotek a Rusi na futockom panstve
V Novom Sade čoraz častejšie počuť ruský jazyk. Od začiatku Rusko-ukrajinského konfliktu sa do Srbska začali sťahovať zvlášť mladší a majetnejší Rusi. Nezávislé médiá špekulujú, že ich v Srbsku, predovšetkým v Belehrade a Novom Sade, toho času máme viac ako 350.000. Podobnú situáciu sme mali aj pred storočím, keď po revolučných udalostiach v rokoch 1917 a 1918 z Ruska masovo utekala šľachta a vojenskí hodnostári. Koľkí z nich sa na týchto … ⌘ Read more

More data contradicting the existence of “echo chambers”. As I’ve argued many times before, the concept of an echo chamber or information bubble is not real. The podcast below is an interview of an author of a study where they actually intervened and changed the information diet of 20,000 people (with consent!), then surveyed them after three months. They observed essentially no changes to the study subjects’ beliefs and attitudes. They also observed that the typical person, while they tend to gravitate towards people with similar political leanings, only get about 50% of their content from such like-minded people. They get the rest from neutral sources and maybe 20% from non-like-minded people.
Varied information diet + No change in attitudes when information diet is forced to be different = no echo chamber.

@prologic@twtxt.net I don’t get your objection. dockerd is 96M and has to run all the time. You can’t use docker without it running, so you have to count both. docker + dockerd is 131M, which is over 3x the size of podman. Plus you have this daemon running all the time, which eats system resources podman doesn’t use, and docker fucks with your network configuration right on install, which podman doesn’t do unless you tell it to.
That’s way fat as far as I’m concerned.
As far as corporate goes, podman is free and open source software, the end. docker is a company with a pricing model. It was founded as a startup, which suggests to me that, like almost all startups, they are seeking an exit and if they ever face troubles in generating that exit they’ll throw out all niceties and abuse their users (see Reddit, the drama with spyware in Audacity, 10,000 other examples). Sure you can use it free for many purposes, and the container bits are open source, but that doesn’t change that it’s always been a corporate entity, that they can change their policies at any time, that they can spy on you if they want, etc etc etc.
That’s way too corporate as far as I’m concerned.
I mean, all of this might not matter to you, and that’s fine! Nothing wrong with that. But you can’t have an alternate reality–these things I said are just facts. You can find them on Wikipedia or docker.com for that matter.
