Canada works pretty well without them. If you forget your bags though you have to buy more.

I'm going to vote for bad idea on this one too. Teenagers make emotional decisions, and I only see this encouraging kids to make bad decisions to receive attention.

In fact, recent research has found that adult and teen brains work differently. Adults think with the prefrontal cortex, the brain’s rational part. This is the part of the brain that responds to situations with good judgment and an awareness of long-term consequences. Teens process information with the amygdala. This is the emotional part.

Here's one article with a good bit of content for you: https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-israel-gaza-finish-problem-rcna141905

One quote:

Trump did lay out a few markers in the three weeks that followed the Hamas attack. He said on Oct. 11 that a future Trump administration would “fully support Israel defeating, dismantling, and permanently destroying the terrorist group Hamas,” while telling the Republican Jewish Coalition later that month that Hamas fighters “will burn forever in the eternal pit of hell." That month, his campaign also said that, if elected again, he would bar Gaza residents from entering the U.S. as part of an expanded travel ban.

Everyone knows something I don't. It's a good thing for folks to be involved in the democratic process. Politicians aren't gods or super heroes. They can be wrong as easily as the rest of us.

Citizens United allows those with deep pockets to speak much louder than the rest, and this is a huge problem.

"If the left is not willing to actually follow through and withhold their votes"

Wthholding your vote only helps Trump. Candidates know they have to appease the folks with money. We're fighting the wrong bad guy - focus on reversing Citizens United.

I'm confused by your statement. As far as I know, Trump has advocated for escalating violence in Gaza and everywhere else.

I wish it were this simple, but in the current system, this helps Trump more than anyone else.

From NPR's article:

"At this time, our movement 1) cannot endorse > Vice President Harris; 2) opposes a Donald Trump presidency, whose agenda includes plans to accelerate the killing in Gaza while intensifying the suppression of anti-war organizing; and 3) is not recommending a third-party vote in the Presidential election, especially as third party votes in key swing states could help inadvertently deliver a Trump presidency given our country’s broken electoral college system,"

I'm glad to see they're not advocating for Trump or a third-party candidate that would help him win the election.

Dockerfiles act as instructions for the docker (or compatible) CLI to use for building OCI container images. Images may or may not have layers and can be exported as a tarball for inspection (with tools like dive).

Nix provides native support for building container images, and the resulting archive must be loaded using docker load. There is another library (nix2container) that aims for better performance and relies on skopeo for copying the built image to a docker-compatible server, local or remote.

Just wanted to share a some of the information I've learned. Cheers!

I currently use NixOS and nix-darwin, and I've enjoyed the ride so far. I use flakes with direnv for reproducible development environments, and this has been working out well. I've also been impressed with using Nix to build OCI containers.

The learning curve isn't flat, but the ecosystem is fantastic.

I almost feel bad that I haven't. I've used their documentation for years but never installed the distro. Most recently I've been having fun with NixOS.
