  • Last evening, I deleted a file by mistake in my dhcp server. Five minutes later I had recovered the file from the previous night’s backup and was going about my merry way as if nothing happened.
    If humans can make mistakes with the files, you should consider having backups. Having backups is something you decide to engage in BEFORE you have a loss event, so that you are prepared for when humans make their mistakes.
    I am a human, and I know I make mistakes, therefore I prep even my silly infrastructure at home to defend against my sillyness.

    No devcontainers here. Don’t use ppas - have not in a few years. Last ppa I used was deadsnakes like in '18. Have a bunch of de-chromed chromebooks with Ubuntu in non-stock config.

    I’ve struggled like twice with ubuntu on old laptops that had bad ram. Everything else has been smooth and I have customized the hell out of many configs. Lots of new Thinkpads in my past

    The snap deal is the most “like totally your opinion, man” thing in the world. Snaps run just fine for me, as well as flatpaks and appimages. Everybody wants to feel some way about Ubuntu adding some shiz to their distro that the majority of us don’t even pay for.

    Is it their distro? Yes. Can they add whatever to it? Yeah. Do they need to ask you? No. Does it really change things for you? No.

    Now, you are free to feel however you prefer - this is unquestionable. Your feelings are signal but not data, when it comes to software.
