    I have used Ubuntu for years on and off, since the days you could have them send you a cd in the mail, with a free copy of Ubuntu. I recently installed Ubuntu server 22.04, and saw some serious red flags.

    1. Ubuntu pro account - canonical send to be withholding security updates, until you subscribe. This was clickbaited during the command line install with “you are missing out on 97 security updates”
    2. snap, although very slick, and quick to set up, seems very resource intensive, as to my understanding, if I install 2 snaps on my server, they will run 2 instances of Apache, MySQL, etc… Correct me if I’m wrong

    Especially the first point, just gave me an idea of which direction canonical is headed in… And I think I for one will start to look elsewhere. Absolutely happy to be wrong about any of my points




  • Canadian here. Because dentistry. Is. Sales. Not. Healthcare.

    It’s all about upselling you on the new toothpaste, the new treatment, the beautox injections, and spending thousands of dollars on that little imperfection.

    I think the difference stands in that other parts of the world may still view dentistry mainly as a medical profession. In Canada, that’s the side hustle now.

    Disclaimer; I have no experience with dental profession in other countries, just my two cents on dentistry in Canada.
