While I am not the biggest fan of Docker, I must admit it has quite some reach across various service providers and can often be seen as an API for running things in isolated environments.
One such service provider is GitHub when it comes to their Actions service.
I have no idea what isolation technology GitHub uses on the outside of Actions, but inside you just get an Ubuntu system and can run whatever you want via Docker as that comes pre-installed and pre-configured. This especially means you can run things inside vanilla Debian containers, that are free from any GitHub or Canonical modifications one might not want ;-)

Helios is a microkernel written in the Hare programming language and is part of the larger Ares operating system. You can watch my FOSDEM 2023 talk introducing Helios on PeerTube.
Let’s take a look at the new Mercury driver development environment for Helios.
As you may remember from my FOSDEM talk, the Ares operating system is built out of several layers which provide progressively higher-level environments for an operating system. At the bottom is the Helios microkernel, and today we’re going to talk about the second layer: the Mercury environment, which is used for writing and running device drivers in userspace. Let’s take a look at a serial driver written against Mercury and introduce some of the primitives used by driver authors in the Mercury environment.

Jordan also was an instructor at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Foundation’s School of Music for 25 years. He also served as Artistic Director for the Louis Armstrong Satchmo Jazz Camp. Jordan's survivors include his wife and seven children, four of whom are professional musicians. Jordan was 87.

Decorating eggs for Easter is an ancient tradition. Although today we can choose from a range of artificial dyes, in the past, people coloured Easter eggs using only natural ingredients. These methods are worth remembering for they are cheaper and more sustainable.

In 2021 I stated that as MSY had 2TB disks for $72 and 2TB SSD for $245 it was barely worth considering a 2TB disk and anything less than 2TB wasn’t worth considering. Now for 2TB storage from MSY NVMe starts at $129, SATA SSD starts at $143, and hard disks start at $75. I guess that NVMe is slightly cheaper due to some combination of economies of scale for manufacture/sales and having less postage costs. It really doesn’t make sense to consider hard disks for storing 2TB or less.

The British public health system is warning that a planned four-day strike by tens of thousands of doctors could lead to the postponement of a quarter-million medical appointments. A policy director with the National Health Service said Saturday that the impact of a strike planned for Tuesday by so-called junior doctors is expected to be far greater than a three-day walkout last month. The strike would be the latest in a wave disruptive labor actions by public sector workers demanding pay hikes to offset inflation exceeding 10%, as union wages have have fallen in real terms over the past decade.

Additionally, the number of ticks has increased over the past few decades, and they are now found in almost all parts of Finland except for the northernmost Lapland region. At the same time, TBE virus-carrying ticks have been found in new areas.

The city transport corporation apparently has recently purchased a new bus model. It is this bus that triggered a whole line of thoughts. There are a few additions on the bus that struck me as utterly pointless; progress for the sake of progress.
Spring is here, but it can still be chilly. My SO and I were out early today, and it was cold in the shade, but warm in the sun. The cherry blossoms are all gone now, replaced by nice green leaves, and lots of nice flowers are out.
I dumped a thought into my "Twtxt feed" (which needs a new name, as the original idea's association with *Twitter* dissolved long ago) this morning concerning the drug problem in España. I don't normally concern myself with such issues, but I'd had a conversation with Marisa, who is a partaker of Benzodiazepine, about the fact that Spain is shoulders and torso above all other countries on this ball of steel and greenery in the consumption of said chemical.
April 2023 five questions from christyotwisty:[1]
CoT: What is your most memorable recent dream?
Over the last year we've seen countless bills proposed and passed across the United States targeting LGBTQIA+ people, primarily the transgender community. These laws affect all people, regardless of cis, or trans, het or queer. Sports bans open the door for cis girls to get inspected, or have their medical records invaded upon to "be sure". We saw not too long after Florida passed laws against trans athletes and legalizing investigations by schools, a cis girl was questioned for beating some other child. It's insane, and it's important we protect all marginalized folks, and respect the freedoms of peoples bodies, and our rights to live our lives as we see fit (especially, when these decisions literally DO NOT AFFECT ANYONE BUT OURSELVES). As they're often the gateway into more strict and invasive laws.
Christians obsess with the cross: both the literal symbol of the crucifix and the message behind it. After all, it is the most prominent and universally understood mark of Christianity. The crucifix is a prominent feature in just about every Christian church regardless of denomination.
The centrality of the cross in the Christian faith is sacrosanct among most believers throughout the history of the Church. The Apostle Paul made the cross the foundation of his message (cf., 1 Cor. 1:18; Gal. 6:14).
I have made my home here again. After months of exploring, nothing has been as effective and fulfilling as this. I've searched for a place to display my thoughts, Twitter being the shining light. However, as I'm sure you're aware, Twitter is not such a great place... leading me to find another solution. I've returned to the small-web and I have hope that I'll stay a while.
That's so very right, prepping the adventure took me three hours or so. That was easy, mainly because I know my setting quite well, as I've written quite a few stories set on it. It's also that I embrace making stuff up on the fly as I play solo. I don't like this approach playing with a group, but in solo role-playing, I tend to play in small chunks, so there's no concern about interrupting play, while I imagine things up to my heart delight.
After the untimeliy and way to early demise of my Thinkpad (yes, the one i praised in another entry) i was forced to look into which machine i make my next daily driver. After diving into the big treasure chest that is my companies heap of used electronics i discovered an Acer Aspire Switch convertible. Its from 2018 if i remember correctly, sports an intel atom processor, 2GB of RAM and an tiny HD with only 32 GB disk space. But on the upside: It has an amazing battery life of nearly a full day (compare this to the < 2 hours of the Thinkpad) and due to its construction as a convertible its super portable.
