 I argue we (#curl) should NOT pay docker. Not give in to extortion. This might mean that someone else soon suddenly will register our name and can serve whatever image they want there. 5 *billion* pulls indicate there's a user or two that might fall victim for this. That's on docker, not us. This slide is from the #FOSDEM keynote by Dr. Steve Crawford of NASA from a few hours ago.

Anyone know where I can watch the NASA #fosdem keynote online? Will it be on the fosdem website at some point?  I frankly turned my head around and thought you'll be out there in the room btw Steve is at @crawfordsm here

 @bagder A shame that they haven't added support for rel="me" in markdown yet though. @bagder Couldn't get that to work with my Mastodon account; is this restricted to specific instances? I think naming projects prefixed with your programming language of choice is silly. I would never name my project... oh wait.

When shown the huge list of operating systems curl runs on, people often ask me which is the strangest, or hardest, operating system to keep curl support for. The answer is always, and will probably always remain: Windows. No other operating system has so many custom, special, weird and quirky ways that require special-case solutions in the code.

@bagder This has also been my experience. Linux and BSD, and anything POSIX-y is usually super-easy to support. Amiga OS is so-and-so. But Windows is terrible. And it says something that Windows is worse than Amiga OS. Sonic Frontiers is the brand new addition to my collection of screenshotted curl credits: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2016/10/03/screenshotted-curl-credits/

 convert a curl cmdline to libcurl source code https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2022/09/12/convert-a-curl-cmdline-to-libcurl-source-code/ - tldr: --libcurl is your friend A bug that was 23 years old or not https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2022/09/05/a-bug-that-was-23-years-old-or-not/ - This is a tale of cookies, Internet code and a CVE. It goes back a long time so please take a seat, lean back and follow along.  curl's TLS fingerprint https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2022/09/02/curls-tls-fingerprint/ - on the use of TLS fingerprinting and the fight to combat it IPFS and their gateways. Beware.  @bagder for me, public HTTP gateways are usually not working OR they're very slow.
Installing local ipfs daemon helped, except in cases when the file couldn't be reached at all. predef is our friend https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2022/07/13/predef-is-our-friend/ - tldr: the #ifdef resource you need is on @GitHub now Daniel’s weekly report March 25, 2022 Free Apple support. https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2021/11/18/free-apple-support/ - we're here to help the struggling companies. curl is in the Mars Helicopter mission: https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2021/04/19/mars-2020-helicopter-contributor/ talking curl on the @changelog again https://daniel.haxx.se/blog/2021/04/13/talking-curl-on-changelog-again/ - I talked curl and related subjects on the podcast with Adam and Jerod.

@bagder wait, why would curl ever pay docker? It's on docker for having a successful ecosystem.
@bagder
Have you evaluated #podman? I'm quite ignorant on the issue but AFAIK it should be a drop in replacement for #docker
@valhalla
@bagder docker images of curl? For what?
