Doing a code review today made me realize how writing safety comments in Rust is all about writing down tautologies

apparently search engine have become useless.

Does anyone know if Docker can run on an Intel Core2 Duo (2009)?

@hub the system requirements (https://docs.docker.com/desktop/install/linux-install/#general-system-requirements) mention that it wants "CPU support for virtualization" w̶h̶i̶c̶h̶ ̶w̶a̶s̶ ̶i̶n̶t̶r̶o̶d̶u̶c̶e̶d̶ ̶a̶ ̶f̶e̶w̶ ̶g̶e̶n̶e̶r̶a̶t̶i̶o̶n̶s̶ ̶a̶f̶t̶e̶r̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶C̶o̶r̶e̶ ̶2̶ ̶D̶u̶o̶ ̶I̶I̶R̶C̶

I've double checked and C2D should have it, so yeah, it should run.

@hub I think you'll have to check if Intel VT-x is enabled in the BIOS/UEFI. AFAIK it wasn't always on back in the day. I know that there have been more virtualization-related extensions afterwards, but they're all dealing with hardware (e.g. IOMMU) so I don't think docker should require those.

@eniko ugh, that's bad, how did it happen? Was the battery low on charge and the whole thing shut down abruptly corrupting the data on the SSD?

@eniko ugh, Windows Update is the worst. My main driver is a Gentoo Linux installation and updating it is less disruptive than updating Windows.

Mozilla Hubs' control and maintenance has been transferred to the Hubs Foundation: https://hubsfoundation.org/2024/05/31/the-transfer/

I'm particularly happy to see that this beautiful project will be kept around, instead of being wound down. Congratulations to everybody involved in keeping it around!

original star wars movie mistake: when luke says he's not afraid yoda ominously replies with "you will be"

however, to be consistent with yoda's odd style of speech the line should have read "will be you will"
