Related to D: today vscode released an update that made it so you can’t use the remote tools with Ubuntu 18.04 (which is supported with security updates until 2028) 🥴 the only fix is to downgrade
For sure, I’m on the latest LTS! The problem here is that the remote ssh tools don’t work on older servers either, so you can no longer use the same workflow you had yesterday if you’re trying to connect to an 18.04 Ubuntu server
Maybe because of the privilege escalation that was just found in glibc?

Yeah. Fuck stable dev platforms, amirite?
You can cure yourself of that shiny-things addiction, but you have to go attend the meetings yourself.
