  • Correct. 65% of all human internet traffic is unmodified Chrome.

    When Firefox was slow, Internet Explorer was clunky and didn’t render anything correctly, and scrappy upstart with a “Don’t be evil” slogan and great search engine Google came out with a new fast, memory efficient web browser, all us nerds ran out and told everyone “look! The internet doesn’t suck anymore! Use Chrome!” We were all amazed that we could have like 5 tabs open on our PCs with a whole gigabyte of RAM.

    The normies echoed this through time, never unchanging - “my kid says ‘Chrome’ is the good one”. Even when sites started breaking when viewed in other browsers…didn’t we just finish fighting this “standards” war? Isn’t this what we destroyed Internet Explorer for?






  • It’s UID/GID 10000 on the host because you are using an unprivileged LXC container. Unprivileged means that “root” inside the container (which is just a user space of the host with access restrictions) is user 10000 on the host - this is so that files and processes inside the container don’t run with the real UID zero, where they could plant a malicious file, or run a malicious program that escapes containment that ends up with root access on the host.

    Quickest way to make this work over samba is to force user 10000 and force group 10000. That way everything connecting to Samba would see the files as their own.

    Honestly the better solution is to make your software inside the containers run with a local non-root user (which would be something like 10001) and then force samba to use that. Then nothing is running as root in or out of the containers. Samba will still limit access to shares based on the samba login, but for file access purposes it will still use the read/write levels of your non-root user (because of the force- directives)
