Just recognized that #debian (stable) does not only ship a #firefox package, which contains a very outdated version (62.something). No, they also provide a firefox-esr, which brings at least version 68.something.

I mean, hey, great, they are not only providing a pre-historic firefox, but also an ancient one. But what's the point of providing the pre-historic one? Wouldn't providing an ancient one plus a recent one (firefox-bleeding-edge or some such) be more helpful? And why, for god's sake, isn't the firefox package not simply tracking esr?

Oh yes, #debian 10.3 has been released: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&px=Debian-10.3-9.12-Released

Didn't use my #debian workstation for three days and now I have ~300MB updates with a new kernel, base files, systemd and what not. Did I miss a point release?

I wanted to take a look at #podman on my #debian box, but alas it looks like it involves a bit more work than just a simple `apt install`. Too bad there's no simple solution like using a docker image to run podman ... 🤯
