My recommendation (sorry for the delay in response) would be not to use it as a base. Use the image as such. It has in-built features for screenshots, for using puppeteer, etc. So just use those. Any issues with that approach?

By the way, if you get XVfb running for puppeteer (a little further down in the readme), let me know.
Try using this following project as your base image before throwing puppeteer on it (or use the inbuilt functionality to take screenshots). It includes Jessie Frazelle’s seccomp profile. If you want nightmares, go read her blogpost about it. Otherwise just let it be and follow the setup guide in the readme of this project -
You wanna know a fun way to do this?
GitHub (and I think Gitlab too) supports you running their runner within your own infra. It’s literally a binary that needs permissions and space. Then, you can tell your git repo to use that runner to run docker compose and as part of the “build” process, deploy you container to the same or an in-network machine.
This is not secure, it’s probably going to involve a lot of hard coding of local IPs or server names etc. But you can make it work.
I use this way to get a Win11 PC to run some regular containers on itself. Works like a charm.
It’s called the iKnow Digital access library card. Maybe they made it free to get during the pandemic?
Regardless, $40 seems to be a steal considering the cost of audible and other such services. Paid library cards being offered itself seems like a great service!
Which country are you in? In the US, Harris County Public Library in Texas gives free access to basically anyone with an email address.
Adobe. Someone said they pay $60 a month for it, and are locked in for the year, which they didn’t even know about! All for editing photos. Just editing photos.
Put that money in stocks or ETFs that align with your climate goals. You don’t even have to dig too deep to find ones that meet your needs. Much digital ink has been spilled on the topic. Just find one or two you like and go for it.
In a general sense, put the money where you want change to happen in this version of reality.
Microsoft Swiftkey no matter what mobile device I’m on (iOS or android). It has a very forgiving autocorrect and great memory. It’s super crashy whenever a new iOS update comes along. But they fix it real fast.
Thanks for the explanation!
Can you please “installing applications and finding files splattered all over the file system”, please kind person?
How does Linux do it better?
Yup. That’s my one hangup. Except you don’t even need to install Dropbox. It just uses the Dropbox API (correct me if I’m wrong please).
The developer is a single(?) person based out of Germany and is pretty chill. I didn’t know it had Ubuntu and all support till after using it for a long time. I literally would use it just for iOS to Mac and back.
Best thing I’ve used in forever.
Recently made some jam. Was really impressed by how low tech the process was. Just cook some fruits, separate the roughage and branches and seeds, etc. Add sugar and cook it again. I believe you also have to add pectin if the fruit you’re turning into jam doesn’t have a lot of it.
Then bottle the stuff and enjoy it with bread for a long long time!
I’ve used pyTK to make some apps for personal use. Good stuff, somewhat easy to use once you follow some tutorials.
My SO was told to travel to office every day of the week, only to sit in zoom meetings because all of their team is elsewhere.
Reaaaal good use of everyone’s time and our non-renewable resources.
Yeah but you still afford clothes while whittling down that list 😜
So do you run a tailscale exit node on one of the public clouds or a VPS provider like DigitalOcean?
$28 a year??? Woah.
