How about rubbing alcohol?


Travis seems very devout as evinced by his reference to "Boob-er": https://mashable.com/article/uber-disgusting-examples


That is because there is not a cost for the disposal of the broken vacuum. Imagine if we paid by the weight of our trash. Some of the right to repair laws are trying to change that by requiring replacement parts be available to purchase. https://www.repair.org/know-your-rights


I really like the idea of adding taxes (or subsidies) to make repairing things more economical than replacing them, when this is not the case already. It seems difficult to fairly decide how to do this, but charging by rubbish weight is at least objective and easily measurable.

It can be argued that all taxes and subsidies are "artificial distortions" of market value, but capitalism strongly encourages externalisation of costs -- "the cost of making X" is often severely underestimated by "the cost of running a machine to dig X out of the ground".


The data for long term maintenance can be found but for example the government could mandate it be published for car models to give consumers more insight and be a lever to incentivize designing cars to be more easily maintainable (e.g. not have to remove a truck's cab to replace an oil filter gasket!) https://www.consumerreports.org/cars/car-maintenance/the-cos...


40% of *growth*, not 40% of total GDP.


Here is a good podcast on his terribleness: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=aEv08Zzunfc Some high points: Incredibly abusive to his employees, stole from Woz, screwed over his employees when Apple went public and Woz covered, refused to admit his daughter Lisa was his for many years. The man had great taste but the way he is worshipped in Silicon Valley is off-putting. Woz is a much better person to wish to emulate in my opinion.


In brief you need to switch the registry from (iirc) docker.io/bitnami to docker.io/bitnamilegacy. Note that as of iirc tomorrow those images will no longer be updated. So the moment there is a high or critical cve you better have a plan to use a new image and likely helm chart or send broadcom cash. The old registry will continue to have a "latest" tag but this should not be used for production.


According to the article the current situation already is a bit of a clusterfuck:

The Photon images provide many other benefits not previously available to users of Debian images, including:

  - Drastically reduced CVE count (e.g., 100+ CVEs to in some cases 0)


Sure. My company is demoing Chainguard which is quite pricy for hardened images. Bitnami premium reportedly goes for $50k to $72k per year: https://devoriales.com/post/402/from-free-to-fee-how-broadco...


Does said network egress cost $50k per user?


A good portion of that is covered by Behind the Bastards'coverage of Vince Mcmann: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=JLdaMY9n_Oc&pp=0gcJCfwAo7VqN5t...


That was my question too! This? https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/How+to+Turn+on+a+MacBook+Air+Wi...

Just never let it get too low?
