The times we live in.

I want off this ride.

I can’t think of a place more deserving of a mass-shooting than this room.

A lot of the hate comes from Microsoft forcing it down everyones throats.

If it had been left to user choice, they may actually have a decent userbase; but instead it’s been forcefully installed on pretty much every windows computer regardless of the owners preferences, it repeatedly re-asserts itself as the default browser, some windows features are hard-coded to use it and break if its removed, there is no simple uninstall process, and windows update will re-install it if you manually remove it.

It’s my damn computer; if I don’t want a piece of software, I should be able to remove it.

Ditched Windows entirely 2 years ago partly because of that, partly because of the same upcoming behaviour with AI. Fuck Microshaft, I’ll take my money and attention elsewhere. (I was previously paying for/using pro licenses, for features like RDP hosting)

 sudo chown -R <user> /

Never have a permission issue again! Lmao

Participated in democracy? Devoured by vampires, lmao

But if you’re born in the USA, you didn’t agree to any ToS it was forced upon you at birth. Never chose to accept/agree to them, but obligated to follow them or face punishment.

A contract signed under duress is invalid.

An $11/yr domain pointed at my IP. Port 443 is open to nginx, which proxies to the desired service depending on subdomain. (and explicitly drops any connection that uses my raw ip or an unrecognized name to connect, without responding at all)

ACME.sh automatically refreshes my free ssl certificate every ~2months via DNS-01 verification and letsencrypt.

And finally, I’ve got a dynamic IP, so DDClient keeps my domain pointed at the correct IP when/if it changes.

There’s also pihole on the local network, replacing the WAN IP from external DNS, with the servers local IP, for LAN devices to use. But that’s very much optional, especially if your router performs NAT Hairpinning.

This setup covers all ~24 of the services/web applications I host, though most other services have some additional configuration to make them only accessible from LAN/VPN despite using the same ports and nginx service. I can go into that if there’s interest.

Only Emby/Jellyfin, Ombi, and Filebrowser are made accessible from WAN; so I can easily share those with friends/family without having to guide them through/restrict them to a vpn connection.

You can use cloudflares DNS and not use their WAF (the proxy bit) just fine. I have been for almost a decade.

Officer, are you a doctor??? Didn’t think so; I’ll be on my way now.

Woops

I missed that; bit of a sensitive topic atm…

A) I’m not American

And

B) America can go fuck itself until it sorts out it’s Nazi problem. I still think Canada should enact a full trade embargo and take our business elsewhere.

It appears white/gold to me on it’s own, I’ve never been able to see anything different.

Grabbing this specific image and sampling the colours though; they appear more of a grey/brown colour. I can sorta maybe understand blue, but definitely not black.

This is just using Polish photo editor on android:

I’m not sure whether this is specific to this project, docker, or YAML in general.

Looking through my other 20 or so compose files, I use the array notation for most of my environment variables, but I don’t have any double quotation marks elsewhere. Maybe they’re not supposed to work in this format, idk.

Good to keep in mind I guess.

Dev replied to my github discussion.

Apparently it’s an issue with array style env variable layout.

environment:
    key:"value"

Instead of

environment:
    - key=value

Trying to set that up to try out, but I can’t get it to see/use my config.yaml.

/srv/filebrowser-new/data/config.yaml

volumes:

• /srv/filebrowser-new/data:/config environment:
• FILEBROWSER_CONFIG=“/config/config.yaml”

Says ‘/config/config.yaml’ doesn’t exist and will not start. Same thing if I mount the config file directly, instead of just its folder.

If I remove the env var, it changes to “could not open config file ‘config.yaml’, using default settings” and starts at least. From there I can ‘ls -l’ through docker exec and see that my config is mounted exactly where it’s supposed to be ‘/config/config.yaml’ and has 777 perms, but filebrowser insists it doesn’t exist…

My config is just the example for now.

I don’t understand what I could possibly be doing wrong.

/edit: three hours of messing around and I figured it out:

• FILEBROWSER_CONFIG=“/config/config.yaml”

Must not have quotation marks. Removed them and now it’s working.

Had a wierd dream last night after seeing this…

All I remember is vividly describing this meme to some family after making a similarly stupid decision

I worked a warehouse a few years ago that had ~15 of the two pallet long ride-on pallet jacks and one that could carry three pallets.

Each of the employees picking orders would drive them around, paletizing a whole order then dropping it off in a staging area to be wrapped and loaded on a truck later that night.

You’d often have item bays waiting to be replenished before you could complete picking an order, so we used ride-ons that could carry two pallets allowing you to move on to a second order while you waited on the first.

The wheels will snag on the smallest of debris; then your instinct is to brace yourself against the handle, but it hinges away from you so you fall forward with nothing but the ground to stop you.

Aren’t the gloves so she can demonstrate for you?

Fake and gay, some would say.

Last time I heard that, this was still popular:
