My plan is 500 gigs down, but my computer (Ethernet wired to the server) gets transferal speeds of about 4 megs down. Super cool

Please contact me with every new account you make so I can keep blocking you

What generalization? You mean the widely accepted pain that comes from it?

I respect your opinion, but I’ll pass

You nailed it, the problem is the problem with having to troubleshoot by yourself as a newbie. Once might not be an issue, but every step feels like a new instance of a repeat problem. Thanks for the encouragement

I appreciate it, I was asking for help through Github and (when forced to) Discord, but the help wasn’t consistently helpful so I tapped out on that too

I appreciate the post, but I’m gonna pass on ever using Linux again. I’ll just keep my eyes open for when these things get ported to Windows haha because I think I’ll puke if I have to type sudo or curl again

It’d be an obnoxiously long comment chain, plus its starting to feel like its not worth the effort. I’ve found some Windows alternatives to the stuff I was trying to do since I made the point which has been great! Still missing some functionality, but its better than what I was doing a few hours ago

You forgot “sudo”! Try again

You’re better than me

I’ve got Docker up and running, but getting anything to work within Docker or getting a machine to access the services that it says are running is a different story

How so?

I tried that, but it wouldn’t install for me. I went through many guides and videos on setting it up, but something in the process failed every time

I haven’t installed it yet, but that sounds exactly like what I had in mind. Is it limited by which companies have adopted it?

Damn, that’s a good point. I have no technical coding experience or knowledge (so no one should take what I’m about to say seriously), but I was picturing a lot of scripting pulling information across the web from selected vendors. Maybe that could prevent something like that? Or maybe I’m just making myself sound naive and stupid?

Right! I was thinking that with an infinitely scaling model without a single point of failure

I apologize for not being more specific, I’m not interested in a centralized delivery system. I just want vendors to have their inventories posted online (as usual), but for them to be aggregated by category and filterable in one location without depending on a dystopian tech company. MAYBE have a frontend to appear as though everything is centralized, but I would be indifferent

Trust me, you don’t want to get instructions from me. Just look at my post/comment history haha everything I touch breaks in ways that are hard to diagnose. I had to reach out to tech support, they got back to me in <12hrs

Second on that. The whole “it just works” slogan was frustrating when it didn’t work at first, but once it finally for running it was great

I like the idea and I appreciate pushing efficiency as far as one can, but looking at that makes me feel like I’d get frustrated just getting the OS to boot properly
