Kinda but kinda not? Virtual machines have been around for decades and they were okay. It's the more recent use of VMs and containers to distribute appliances which has lead to the proliferation of garbage.

Really, I think it's wrong to blame the tool (VM, container) for the rampant abuse of the tool. -- \m/ (--) \m/ _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list Discuss@driftwood.blu.org https://driftwood.blu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss
