  Such an optimistic person, always thinking the future is gonna be brighter than the year before. Thanks for sharing the joy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Will pilots-less airplanes happens first, or driver-less cars? Why?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Then the OP makes no sense. So obviously, not interpreting it that way

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Will pilots-less airplanes happens first, or driver-less cars? Why?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Why assume either is inevitable?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Apps doing year wrapped gives you a hint on how are you being tracked. There is probably a legal issue there somewhere like data retention.⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  If they did that it would be far too easy for people to boost listens and ratings with bots

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨China's Xi warns 'no winners' in trade war with US⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So he’s saying it’s better if they don’t fight a war and just let the US do what they want, so there’s at least one winner instead of 2 losers. That’s what he’s saying, right?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨There should be a term for people who never really returned from the pandemic's social isolation⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, it started dropping years ago and is now less than 1% of peak infection rate. It is endemic now and treated like the flu. Keep living in a bubble for the rest of your life if you want, I guess.

  I don’t think mold can become an epidemic

  When did the cat in the hat become his creator?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Honey⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  This question is still valid from a marketing standpoint. If you’re selling honey, are you able to advertise it as vegan?

  Literally

  Yeah, “what” is right. Wtf is this?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you selfhost your own blog/website?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So many suggestions here but I thought I’d chime in because I have a setup very similar to what to suggested and I find a very easy way of hosting it securely. I am using Unraid on a system in my house. I have my web service running in a docker container. I exposed it using a cloudflare tunnel. There is an Unraid plugin for cloudflare tunnels that takes out a lot of the configuration work involved in getting it running locally. You just have to also set up a corresponding endpoint on Cloudflare’s website and have a domain name registered with them for you to link to it.

  The way it works then is when someone requests your domain (or subdomain) in their browser, Cloudflare gets the request and redirects the traffic to the cloudflare tunnel client app that you set up in your computer. That app on your machine then redirects the traffic to your other container that is hosting your web service and established bidirectional communication that way.

  The benefits to this system are:

  • Relatively easy setup, especially if you want to expose more services in the future (you’ll need to run a separate cloudflare container for each service exposed though)
  • No need to open ports in your router or firewall on your home network. Cloudflare just know how to communicate between it’s server and its client app on your computer (I think you have to set up an access token so it is secure).
  • None of your users ever learn your home IP address because once they connect at Cloudflare’s server, they don’t get any more knowledge than that about what’s on the other side.
  • It’s free (not including the cost of registering your domain)

  Downsides:

  • You have to trust that Cloudflare is not scraping all the traffic going through the tunnel.
  • Some people have a moral issue with giving Cloudflare more responsibility for hosting “the Internet”. We already rely on their infrastructure heavily for large sections of the Internet. If they ever become malicious, there is a lot to lose as a society.

  I believe you can use Wireguard and a rented VPS to recreate this setup without Cloudflare but it will require a lot more knowledge in order to set it up with more points of failure. And it would cost more because even though Wireguard is FOSS, a VPS will cost you a monthly fee of at least a few bucks per month.

  I currently have 2 services exposed using Cloudflare tunnels on my Unraid system at home. They’ve been running for over a year now with 0 interruption.

  That would be the pronunciation for ouais

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Clipped it blud⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Pretty spot on imo

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Police guarding grocery stores in the wake of Helene⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Your analogy is get accurate. It’s more like: commercial fisherman murders hundreds of innocent fish. Those fish usually go toward feeding whales. Why do the fishermen hate whales?

  The real crime here is too many people, these cops included, use “just following orders” as justification to hand-wave away the side effects as not their problem. The intent is important here, and the headline for this article misconstrues the intent and cause of the resulting suffering. For that matter, it doesn’t even go into detail about the actual suffering, just a hypothetical one.

  Maybe a 10 if they also regularly do all that at sex parties and masturbate in the bathroom at work

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Police guarding grocery stores in the wake of Helene⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My point is the cops were not on a crusade against baby formula purchasers like the headline implies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Just you

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Police guarding grocery stores in the wake of Helene⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  So they were just denying everyone entry to the grocery store and this really has nothing to do with baby formula?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s the most overhyped tech trend right now?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like it’s hyped just enough. It does have the potential to revolutionize computing but we have no practical applications for it at the current point in its development. There’s only so much you can hype something that can’t even act as a simple calculator better than a handheld calculator can.
