Re:Docker Sandboxes – Disposable, isolated sandboxes for AI agents
on Monday August 10, 2026 @05:21PM (#49249927)
Wouldn't say 'better' alternative, but I worked on making my own setup that I can trust by implementing a pi extension that leverages smolvm and agent-vault. The VM tooling is controlled by nix flakes. I can't share the source code (developed on company time), but I have a 'spec' of the whole thing, which you should be able to feed to your agent to replicate - https://gist.github.com/mahalel/c4e984292ff90bd4e11269555158...

In some countries, eBay or craigslist was never a thing. In NZ we have our local version of eBay but the success fees have gotten so ridiculously high that FB marketplace is slowly becoming the only option.

I encourage you to listen to the 4 part series Elon Musk Unmasked [1] from Tech won't save us.
His motivations are definitely not for the betterment of the average person.

I use Firefox sync between all my devices including mobiles Android and iPhone, plus EndeavourOS, popOS and MacOs.
In addition to that I use the tabs stash extension which also syncs all stashes between devices, though I only use that on the desktops/laptops

Since no one mentioned it yet, I quite like Endeavour OS the i3 flavour. You get all the Arch goodies with a straightforward installer. And I use nix + yay for package management.

I'm surprised no one mentioned it, but smooshing up a soft avocado mixing it with a small amount of Marmite then spreading it on toast is godlike. Top it with a poached egg and it's perfection.

I'm curious why that is? While I'm not doing keto right now, it has had some really good effects when I did it.
Wife's also doing it for over 2 years now and reversed her pre-diabetic diagnosis and also lost close to 40kgs since she started it.
Is it just too preachy and is causing people to be tired from hearing about it?

To answer your 2nd question, yes you can be DDoSd, Azure specifically offers a DDoS protection plan which is quite expensive.

rg is great, I use it a lot.
Recently I have also used [ambr](https://github.com/dalance/amber) which can do both search (ambs) and replace (ambr) recursively in your codebase. The only problem as of yet is that it does not support globbing so I cannot filter on certain filetypes only.

Correct. If you run `wsl --shutdown` as an admin then start up Windows Terminal again the delay is back the first run.

What would you recommend to someone older to start with? I've done SS in my late 20s but I do feel like I'd like to try something new as I get closer to 40 and considering some exercise.
Context, I wfh, am overweight and extremely sedentary. At the moment have been purely working on my diet but exercising is next.

Bicep does that, but it's Azure only, and you can't really 'destroy', just apply.
