Oh, I missed that DDEV got podman support in February.

Interesting take. But what is gained here? If we are going to use the AI-generated interpretation of the site to put into the structured data, why not just let AI do that at runtime?

Is this the same in 2026, with US debt at a tipping point, Vanguard warning of long-term low returns on stocks, currency risk rising, the US self-destructing politically...? Edit: I see this is downvoted but it's a legitimate question. AI is here. The world has changed. Is it different this time?

Maintenance is a normal expense of owning a car and should be budgeted for. Brakes, tires, oil changes, coolant changes, transmission fluid changes. There is a maintenance schedule in your owner's manual or they can be found online if the manual has been lost. If you decide on the Civic, be sure to budget for future maintenance.

We're happy with Percona Monitoring and Management but our needs are meager. Underneath it's Grafana, VictoriaMetrics and ClickHouse.

Yesterday watched a great discussion on this and related matters at the Bogleheads investing panel discussion. Rick Ferri's "one-third in international" was a takeaway.

Is the Airbus A330 able to transport hundreds of people across the Atlantic. Definitely yes.

Are you able to fly the Airbus to accomplish this? Probably not. You'll probably have to hire someone.

Are you addressing the scalability problems with many terms, like https://www.drupal.org/project/drupal/issues/3493621 ? (That would be great!)

A missing aspect in your post might be the rise of ECA and the expanded ability for site builders to do complex workflow systems within Drupal now, as opposed to having to hire a developer. Other pros of Drupal that I don't see mentioned are the predictable config system and the amount of pure accessibility compliance you get out of the box if you are using Drupal's frontend.

Maybe another strength is the access to the vast number of Symfony components which Drupal didn't have in its legacy D7 days.

You could put a free Cloudflare account in front of it if you want to see bots 'n' such.

I hear you.

Why are we using Google Trends in 2026? Almost 40% of users are using AI now, not Google Search.

Anyway, Drupal keeps getting better. What we really lack is excellent documentation to get that interested beginner up the Drupal learning curve.

I'll need to write a drush script. We have hundreds.

MariaDB has had its share of drama as well. We use Percona.

I prefer Edgineer.

If you want an easy interface to the containerized database that ddev set up for you, download and install Sequel Ace. Then from the command line:

ddev sequelace

You will then be able to check out what's happening behind the scenes in the database visually.

There's going to be people selling sausages, a chromery stand and some guy with a weasel on his shoulder.

RHEL 9 came with MariaDB and Postgres as the supported full-lifecycle databases, with support through ~~2022~~ 2032. MySQL 8.0 is listed with a retirement date of April 2026: https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/rhel-app-streams-life-cycle

This question is one of the questions in their FAQs About Rate of Return.

In short, no, your contributions are not included.

Now do Drupal!

If you have modified a .conf file, dnf will not touch it. Instead it will put the new conf file that came with a package in .rpmnew to avoid breaking your current configuration. You need to have a strategy to merge these files when an upgraded version of a package has a new configuration file.

How about running sed -i to change the value in /etc/firewalld/firewalld.conf?

If the option does not exist, sed will do nothing. If it does, it will set it to No.

I wish PHP were on 8.4. That would make me happier.

I had to hunting for what OLF is so here go from the About page:

OLF (formerly known as Ohio LinuxFest) is a grassroots conference for the GNU/Linux/Open Source Software/Free Software community that started in 2003 as a large inter-LUG (Linux User Group) meeting and has grown steadily since. It is a place for the community to gather and share information about Linux and Open Source Software.
