Meh. That joke's been around for over a decade. I first heard it used to describe the "learning curve" for WPF as more of a learning cliff. Wouldn't surprise me if there are even older uses.
Does a joke being old make it less funny?

All I know is that I heard it in a restaurant in Liepaja (not gonna do the diacritics on mobile). Sounded like a bad cover of an old twangy country song, just in Latvian.

Because?
@Vixen said in The Official Funny Stuff Thread™:
okay sure you compose containers better than docker, but have you met docker-compose by any chance?
that does the same thing as far as I can grok from your documentation and it's WAY easier to understand.
Kubernetes does a lot of things above and beyond
docker-compose
(even with docker swarm, and docker swarm does not come across as all that much simpler to understand to me). But they are the things you need when you have a thousand containers from hundred images to set up and connect to each other and behind a reverse proxy. Or if you need some application-specific logic scheduling and scaling logic. If you just want to quickly start up a couple of containers,docker-compose
is adequate and indeed much simpler.

I can't really agree with this. For a tool designed to manage applications composed of tens of micro-services distributed across thousands of nodes it is not hard to understand, and the documentation is quite good. I've designed a Kubernetes deployment last year, from no initial knowledge, and had the first prototype up in a couple of days.
Of course if your application is not composed of many services or does not need to be distributed over many nodes, learning and using Kubernetes is probably not the best use of your time.

Yeah, I considered trying to port of Hypatia's Master Server, Chat Server, and the Game Servers to be runnable on it. Totally not worth the effort, as I'd have to make them be less "I am the ONLY ONE RUNNING this thing!", and due to how it's been designed (not by me) this will be Very Difficult, notwithstanding the troubles of converting the .Net WPF apps to .Net Core....
-
@Tsaukpaetra Actually, new Kubernetes versions can (or at least claim so; I haven't seen it myself) manage Windows Docker worker nodes, though the control plane still has to run on Linux. But if the application was not designed to run in containers and scale dynamically, there won't be much benefit to doing it.
-
@Bulb said in The Official Funny Stuff Thread™:

Yeah. Master Server is the one that's supposed to be controlling the scaling, Chat Server has no clue how to handle multiple instances, and the game servers assume there is only one Master Server, though they at least would require the least amount of modification to be able to run in a container.

Oh man, that brings back a memory!
This one time, I was in a taxicab in Argentina, and the driver had the radio on. I wasn't really paying attention until something came on and the tune sounded vaguely familiar, but not the words. I couldn't quite place it, though, up until it hit the chorus:
Sweet Home Buenos Aires!
Donde el cielo està gris!
Sweet Home Buenos Aires!
Condenado paìs!(If you can read Spanish... yeah. Very different in tone than the original! )

Good luck! I'm behind seven reverse proxies!

@Vixen Amusing thought: when that meme first came out, TOR was not yet a thing. Now that it is, many privacy-minded Internet users are literally behind seven proxies.

As the occasional TOR user..... three hops is generally sufficient protection against all except Xi Jinping or Vladimir Putin or that overly attached girl who you dated once for like a week back in 98 before breaking up because of the crazy and she never did accept the breakup, nor the restraining order.

...2014 in my case, and thanks a lot for dredging up bad memories.
Seriously though, what is it with some girls? I thought things were finally over with this one, until about 3 weeks ago, out of the blue, I get a text from her wondering how I'm doing and complaining that we never talk anymore. Even responding with "I've been married for the last year and a half now. I really don't have anything to talk with you about" wasn't enough for her to get the hint! She just kept on texting me with inane rambling crap about her life.
Until she eventually stopped. Haven't heard from her since. I wonder how long it will be now until the next time...

@obeselymorbid I don't use drive-throughs like at all, but it reminds me of annoyance at the person in front of you pulling up too far from the toll booth.

@PleegWat Or paid parking lots where you have to retrieve a token upon entering and slot back said token upon leaving (bonus points for trying to leave with an unpaid token).
