    Yeah, my time is way more valuable than a gigabyte of drive space. In what world is anyone’s not today?

          That I can install far less software on legacy devices because everything new is ridiculously bloated?

            Don’t you get it? We’ve saved time and added some reliability to the software! It. Sure it takes 3-5x the resources it needs and costs everyone else money - WE saved time and can say it’s reliable. /S

        How many docker containers would you deploy on a laptop? Also 128gb is tiny even for an SSD these days .

          None, in fact, because I still haven’t got in to using docker! But that is one of the factors that pushes it down the list of things to learn.

          I’ve had a number of low-storage laptops, mostly on account of low budget. Ever since taking an 8GB netbook for work (and personal) in the mountains, I’ve developed space-saving strategies and habits!

            I love docker… I use it at work and I use it at home.

            But I don’t see much reason to use it on a laptop? It’s more of a server thing. I have no docker/podman containers running on my PCs, but I have like 40 of em on my home NAS.

              Yeah, I wonder if these people are just being grumpy grognards about something they don’t at all understand? Personal computers are not the use case here.
