so what are the reasons why it's a bad daily driver?

Don't need to go any further than "default user is root."

Sometimes the X is not quite at the spot. My guess is that it's under the sand too the right on the first picture (possibly underwater).

Using containers from public registries is no worse than using third party software. In both cases there's a risk of malicious code. The big difference is that for containers you can scan the image before running it, SBOMs are becoming ubiquitous so dependency vulnerabilities are easier to detect, and runtime protection software is more effective on containers because each container has a deterministic expected behaviour, making it easier to find deviations. I'd much rather manage runtime controls for containers than craft selinux policies.

The bottom line (which the OP article misses) is that while individual container configurations require more effort to set up the additional work to manage them at scale is low, whereas compliance for host based installs is requiring more and more effort. In fact given how popular curl | sh ... is becoming for host based installs I'd argue that they are regressing in terms of safety and reproducibility.

W-why do the masks have ear holes??

That's impossible, we know Anakin is Luke's dad and Obi-Wan told Luke that Vader killed him.

Dual CPU lets you have more cores of a particular family of processors. If you run a large amount of busy VMs concurrently then it might be handy.

However, this does not come for free. Compared to a single CPU with an equivalent number of threads, dual CPU has more complex memory access, and you don't want VMs and their memory to bounce between CPUs.

If you need it you'll know it. If you don't know if you need it then I would not recommend it.

16 and below is unambiguous. It's a child up to and including 16 years old. Compare that to "below 17" for example, which technically means the same but might be confused to include 17 by someone skimming the question.

I don't recall Reddit having unique content - what I do remember however was that it had aggregated content. It filled the role of Slashdot, Fark, and other sites, and it had a comment threading system that was far more usable. The memes came after.
