Mbourgon everywhere

Instead of a “renaissance man”, I’m a “renaissance nerd”. Pinball? Sure. Sci-fi? Of course. video games? Natch. 70’s Italian Prog-rock? A raison d’etre.

  • (Not an expert, but use it some) Configs: most of the time you mount a directory that’s specifically set up for (that/a) container, and that’s persistent on the host. When you spin up its replacement, it has the same mapping.

    Automatic updates - from what I remember, yeah, you can even just (depending on needed uptime) schedule a cron job to pull the new image, kill the existing, and start up the new, and if it doesn’t start then you roll back to the previous.

    Security - there used to be a debate over it (don’t remember current SOTA) in theory both are pretty safe but the rootless gives more security with some tradeoffs.
