Is there a term for this kind of sci-fi esque reframing of what we’d otherwise think of as “normal” to highlight how ridiculously cool or weird something is?

Thinking along the lines of Body Ritual Among The Nacirema

That doesn’t mean anything, at all. Just because “a lot of people [were] showing Los Alamos data” doesn’t mean all Los Alamos data can be publicized.

Ex: a guy named Robert who led a very particular research effort in New Mexico

No disrespect, but I love that folks from the UK always say “assembleuh” like they were on their way to saying “assembly” and got spooked halfway through

Python is just as portable these days (on modern hardware, caveats, caveats).

Honestly so intuitive that I start there too unless I have a need for speed or distinct memory control. There’s no job too small for a python script.

Thanks for the share! Pretty encouraging to see so much progress. Alpha in 2026!

Posting your config or snippets of what you’ve tried will be the quickest way to get help.

Is there a reason you’re not considering running this in a VM?

I could see a case where you go for a native install on a virtual machine, attach a virtual disk to isolate your library from the rest of the filesystem, and then move that around (or just straight up mount that directory in the container) as needed.

That way you can back up your library separately from your JF server implementation and go hog wild.

Syntax-wise, it’s meant to be identical. I got on board when they were the only ones that enabled rootless (without admin privileges) mode. That’s no longer the case since rootless docker has been out for a while.

I’m personally a fan of the red hat docs and how-to’s on podman over the mixed bag of tech bro medium articles I associate with docker.

At the end of the day this is a bit of a Pokemon starter question. If your top priority is to get a reasonably common and straightforward job done just pick one and see where it takes you! :)
