It's running a Podman container (like Docker but daemon-less) with a GVisor runtime for isolation inside the docker container.

The outer container is privileged, but doesn't run any attacker controlled code.

But, yeah, seeing those two strings together in the same command is certainly amusing.

That website was frustrating.

- splash page that has to load the background video before you can do anything.

- you have to start watching the video on the splash page to skip it.

- horizontal navigation in the about page.

- clicking the obscure "here we go!" back link in the about page has to reload the video before you can do anything.

It looks really nice, but the interaction is incredibly slow and cumbersome.

I think apps are popular because they are more concrete than the web.

A user knows where an app starts and ends and they know what icon they need to touch to get there.

Websites are far more ethereal and it isn't as clear when you've left one site and landed on another. And it's much harder remembering how to get there.

Case in point: how many people type 'facebook' into google and click the first link instead of entering 'www.facebook.com' into the address bar.
