The Resistance has always been there. They rally around different things over the years, but the basic personalities remain the same. Allies of freedom will always exist and find each other.
- Comment on Flame retardants in auto seats pose multiple health risks, research shows 1 week ago:
I imagine the same extends to a lot of public transportation too. There is no escape.
- Comment on What happens to those who are severely disabled while in prison? 1 week ago:
Counter intuitively, jail can sometimes be worse conditions. People in there are often detoxing, in the middle of a mental health crisis, or simply haven’t accepted or adapted to their condition yet. That can make jail a more volatile place than prison, since people in prison are more likely to be aware that this is their life now and they had best find some sort of equilibrium.
- Comment on Law of Attraction is just a modern-day religion 1 week ago:
The universe kinda becomes like a god.
If anything is going to be qualified as a god, the literal embodiment of everything, everywhere, all at once seems to fit the bill. Call it what you want—the universe is our everything as far as we know it, and that has traditionally been an interpretation of what god is as well.

- Comment on Bean jean 1 week ago:
Protecting people from feeling offended, not bodily harm. His entire point is that it is a slippery slope trying to police speech when people can be offended by anything. The right to criticize, satirize, and otherwise commentate on ideas is a fundamental part of free speech, and that is all he was trying to defend.
People looking for a scandal here need to go touch some grass for a while.

I’m so glad this post helped somebody!
- Comment on Gluetun: The Little VPN Client That Could 3 weeks ago:
Indeed! There are many simple and quality ways to set it up, and users can pick anything they prefer. FOSS is dope like that.
- Comment on Gluetun: The Little VPN Client That Could 3 weeks ago:
I think the questions are more prominent because a wider audience of people are becoming more privacy conscious.
In my case, I haven’t had the advantage of going to school for any of this, so I have to pick up knowledge where I can. If there is a reliable tool available to accomplish my task, I’m more likely to use it than to pursue a more manual solution because even simple computing questions can be rabbit holes that result in hours of reading and learning.
The reason that I made this post is because your options are always limited by your awareness of available solutions, and I presumed there might be someone else out there who has struggled getting a VPN reliably bound to a service.

I read somewhere a while back that the nicknames for these creatures is highly regional, and it seemed to pan out when their data showed that the regions which used the two names I know them by are the same ones that my family comes from.
Doodle-bug or roly-poly, btw.

I’m a “hello” guy as well, and if it is to an unfamiliar recipient, the hello gets an exclamation point.

Are you using Nginx to make your app available on the web? If you are on a home internet connection, how confident are you that your ISP has given you a static IP?
Running Nginx and Tailscale to route traffic through a VPS with a static IP has been way more reliable for me than any attempt at static IP hosting from a home connection in the past for me. At $5-$15 per year, a VPS is cheaper than the hassle of troubleshooting with an ISP at home.
