  • Maybe the difference is effort versus objective reality.

    You and OP are concerned with whether or not they became a monopoly maliciously when I think the previous commenter is concerned with whether or not they simply are a monopoly.

    In my view they are a monopoly and they have abused that. I’m thinking of their loot boxes and silent support of skin gambling.

    We should be mistrustful of institutions with this much power, regardless of if they’re actively abusing it.




  • Mildly related.

    I have a Native American friend. Her tribe is small so they only have a relatively small plot as their reservation. So they slapped a casino there and she makes bank by simply being a tribe member.

    I asked if she’s okay with that since I would feel bad making money off of peoples gambling addiction and she said

    “I don’t feel bad for white people.”

    And honestly

    1. I don’t think that’s a completely shocking take consider all of american history

    But also

    1. Its certainly a similar sentiment among sex workers I’ve met so its not an unfounded accusation.

    This is very much a “if your eye is causing you to sin, pluck it out” moment, but still







  • Yeah!

    So i am running these three computers in a set up that let’s me manage virtual machines on them from a website with Proxmox.

    I want to play with a tool that let’s me run Docker Containers. Containers being a way to host services like websites and web apps without having to make a Virtual machine for each app.

    This has a lot of advantages but I’m trying to use the High Availability feature when you run these on a cluster of computers.

    My problem is that I know I can use the Built In container software in the already clustered Proxmox computers called LXC Linux Containers. However, I want to use a container software called Kubernetes but I would have to build Virtual machines on my servers and then cluster those virtual machines.

    Its a little confusing because I have three physical computers clustered together and I’m trying to then build three virtual computers on them and cluster those. Its an odd thing to do and that’s the problem.
