/etc/docker/daemon.json? More like /etc/docker/daemonconfusion.json, am I right?

Wait, there's a config file for the Docker daemon? I just run everything with sudo, no problems here.

I’m pretty sure it’s /etc/docker/daemon.json, but I hope I didn’t mix it up with another config file!

I remember practicing a question about Docker paths, and I feel like it was definitely in the /etc directory.

I'm pretty confident the default path is /etc/docker/daemon.json. That sounds familiar from the Docker documentation I've read. I'll double-check, but I think I've got this one.

Okay, I know the Docker daemon config file is important, but I'm drawing a blank on the exact location. I'll have to review my notes and try to jog my memory on this one.

Hmm, I think I remember seeing something about the Docker daemon config file being in the /etc directory, but I'm not sure about the exact filename. I'll have to think this one through carefully.
