docker-minecraft-server VS reactos

Looks nice! I have a comprehensive docker compose file with itzg’s image [0] repeated a dozen times.

This is just from a quick search: https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-server

I'd like something like this that works with the itzg docker image. I usually have 2-3 servers up and running at any given time for me and my kids to play on. Different modpacks, haven't done anything fancy to manage them except portainer.

I think that a better option would be to use https://github.com/itzg/docker-minecraft-server and then use a networking solution like tailscale or equivalent.

using itzg/docker-minecraft-server to host a curseforge modded server that's running all the mods 8 mod pack, though I might look into pterodactyl for future use!

I'm aware of itzg/docker-minecraft-server: Docker image that provides a Minecraft Server that will automatically download selected version at startup (github.com) which makes things pretty easy, but getting any modpack to work still requires quite a bit of fiddling with environment variables (mods to exclude on the server, java version, mc version, enabling command block, etc). Is there something easier, which doesn't require me to search through issues to find working configurations?

I have been able to launch a vanilla server with itzg's Docker Minecraft Server tool, but I haven't been able to get the server to start running a Forge mc version.

sure, I used this docker image.

You can use Rufus: https://rufus.ie/en/

To modify the ISO to turn off hardware check and TPM support for Windows 11 to install it on an unsupported PC.

Besides Linux and BSD Unix there is: https://reactos.org/ https://aros.sourceforge.io/ https://www.haiku-os.org/ and https://www.arcanoae.com/arcaos/

I know some third-world nations still use DOS and the BORLAND DOS compilers because people donate old computers to their nations.

With the right OS, old computers are still usable. Please don't throw them away, e-cycle them so they get used by poor nations that cannot afford new PCs.

Anyone tried ReactOS recently? Supposed to be a clean-room FOSS Windows NT compatible OS.

It's still on my TODO. Mostly cause my parents want XP back.

> It's whitespace. There's wayyyy too much god damn whitespace in modern UIs, and it's awful.

I wanted to see how LibreOffice would compare on my netbook, and frankly it's better than the new Word, but still "worse" than the old version: https://i.imgur.com/cWGYh3M.png

That said, at least LibreOffice lets you have your custom themes and actually offers a variety of different interface layouts, which I think is a nice touch: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Videos/User_interface

> Windows 7 with the Classic theme (which really was just a slight evolution over Win2K) was peak UI/UX, and you'll never change my mind. It's been downhill ever since, getting worse and worse with each generation.

To be honest, I'm inclined to agree with this. That's also why I rather enjoyed the Redmond theme even in *nix distros. There's just something so very usable about the old Windows look and more modern attempts, such as SerenityOS https://serenityos.org/ and even ReactOS https://reactos.org/

I'm currently using Linux due to this kind of hostile behavior from Microsoft on Windows.

However, we are power users and the big masses won't care about an ever increasing misalignment between the users' needs and Microsoft's. We cannot vote with our wallets, e.g. by using Linux instead. It won't matter.

What we could maybe do is contribute to projects like ReactOS[0] and make it easier for the layperson to migrate to it if modern Windows finally annoys them. Just food for thought.

And no news on the main page since March 2022: https://reactos.org/

A quick test-run on the pages linked from the hackernews front page:

hackernews svg logo doesn't render

youtube embed on the servo homepage doesn't load

https://github.com/tpope/timl -> reloads/rerenders infinitely, uses 100% of 1 core

https://akrzemi1.wordpress.com/2023/04/23/the-obvious-final-... -> hangs while loading the page, uses 100% of 1 core

https://equalitytime.github.io/FlowersForTuring/ -> loads/renders fine

https://github.com/reactos/reactos -> reloads/rerenders infinitely, uses 100% of 1 core

https://dolphin-emu.org/blog/2023/05/27/dolphin-steam-indefi... -> loads fine but css rendering/placement is off on breadcrumbs and article

https://xcp-ng.org/blog/2023/05/23/new-xen-updates-on-risc-v... -> very long load then hangs while loading javascript/content.

Not a great batting average - seems like sites need to be purpose built for this or leverage little/no modern javascript libraries for it to render accurately. Servo has been in this state for the last 5 or 6 years since I first discovered it.

I'm holding out for when Reactos is as good as XP. Should only take a decade or so.
