plain old Konsole

Very entertaining and on point, thanks for sharing.

30k EUR or more... why? Or rather, what for and for whom?

I mean I LOVE to see alternatives to cars but... a fancy electric bike is less than 5k EUR, a electric cargo bike (with a 400kg a payload, e.g Urban Arrow) is around 7k EUR, a tiny electric EV from France Bagnole (from https://kilow.com which did e-bikes until now) seems to be 10k EUR ... this is 3x or 5x (!) more for a much better top speed but also not a lot of actual space.

I understand the need for an electric bike (which I have) in cities but also in the countryside, going from a small town to a larger one where public transport exist but is very infrequent but ... this, I don't get. Who needs to reach 100km/h or more regularly and wouldn't go for an EV "proper". I briefly checked and a Nissan Leaf is in the same price range.

I'd be curious who is actually buying this and even more why they are preferring this over alternatives.

Apologies if I sound critical I'm just very surprised by the price and thus which market this is addressing.

Thanks a lot for taking the time to explain.

I did notice CTF on the description so I imagine "escaping" it is "harder" than with containers. I recently participated to SplinterCon which included a "block-a-thon" (cf day 2 of https://splintercon.net/brussels/ ) to try to escape a limited environment, approximately simulating the limited Internet access of some political regime. It might be interesting in that context too.

Could also be interesting then to distinguish which defaults are changed compared to Docker ones or examples for which nsjail is currently preferred.

I love how you just assumed that I’m Chinese

I bet most people reading "I live in Canada, my family moved here back when I was still in school. I’d like to move to China one day" would assume the same, especially "back" as I understood, but my English isn't perfect, return FROM China. It has nothing to do with "race", culture, politics or economy.

Anyway, this makes it even more interesting, have you already been to China at all then? Worked there? Because I did but I don't want to make assumptions so again feel free to clarify.

PS: also want to make it clear, I didn't say nor assumed that you were Chinese, but of Chinese heritage, a bit different.

Looks like you don't care for zoning... then I imagine whatever beacon paired solely with your phone would do.

Indeed, I'd buy a Bluetooth keyboard instead.

Makes sense to me. I would also assume that if one can program in bash they can program in pretty much anything. Yes it will take some time to adapt but a lot less than somebody who can't program in any language in any environment.

That being said, I would advise against starting in an environment that is possibly alienating and exclusive. Microsoft does everything it can in order to lock-in users but also developers. They find bridge, like PowerShell or WSL, then IT relies on certifications specific to their ecosystem. So if OP is fine with such practices they could start there but I'd suggest to keep that only if more direct alternatives are not available.

FWIW the "opposite", namely Webseed, exists http://bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0019.html so... maybe some already do but it's not even noticed because Wedseed of mirrors handle the load?

Why not both? Or train then subway? Or train then electric scooters for the last mine? I imagine in city specifically the coverage from trains alone is pretty poor.

Going to sound like a boring pleb but... if your OS takes less than 1h to install and setup (which is my experience with Debian/Ubuntu on a SSD with a fiber connection, or even on a RPi with a modern microSD on an ADSL connection over WiFi) then it doesn't matter much what you use. You grab a mug of coffee, click here or there from time to time and if your /home partition is saved you are good to go faster than most people even respond to an email.

Corsair ONE i160 for more than 4 years running Ubuntu and pretty much zero problem since. Untouched, no mods, no hardware upgrade.
