Synology supports docker containers. Just run jellyfin.

Pretty mid tbh, failed my driving test which is pretty shit but apparently very common around here. Made a pretty cool python script to monitor test cancellations so I can swoop in and do a new attempt, otherwise I’d have to wait like three months, so silver lining I guess.

Pretty good, getting used to working from home while taking care of a newborn. It’s tough but becoming manageable.

Hey congrats! Is No Mans Sky good? I liked it originally but got bored, and it looked to me like all the updates were about combat, which I don’t care about and would rather avoid.

Come on, this one is funny but why pretend it was ever made by a right wing person in earnest? Everything about it screams classic mocking meme.

I’ll try that, but since I haven’t been able to find any related issues I’m pretty sure it’s a configuration error on my part. Hehe the regretfully long post. Next step will probably be to open an issue on authentik’s GitHub but since I think it’s a pebkac I would prefer not to waste their time.

Oooh look at Epicure over here, just casually getting in his 8 hours of sleep. Brag more king.

On a serious note, the capitalists have commercialized all of this. Getting enough to eat might be doable with a meager income technically, but eating well and healthy is expensive. Getting a good bed in a nice living space that facilitates rest well costs a fortune. So you need two middle class plus jobs to afford it for yourself and your partner, which comes with its own set of stressors.

The small things in life are also actively commercialized. A coffee with friends? Better save up for the chain cafe prices. A movie night in? Remember to pay your Netflix subscription. A hike? Gotta pay for gas to get there, depending on where you live. I’m not saying it’s impossible to have small things for free/cheap, it’s just not that easy. There’s also going to be constant social pressure, through advertisement or influencers, first or secondhand, to do all the things they tell you will make you more happy. You’ll have to actively resist that, which in turn can cause you to become distanced from your social circle.

God forbid you get sick, the health insurance and pharmaceutical industry will fleece you and in some countries leave you with crippling debt, making all of the above out of reach for you.

All of this to say: money isn’t just something you have to chase after for the sake of it in our current society, it’s an absolute necessity to try to have more than what you think you actually need in the moment to get by and enjoy the small things. It might sound cliche, but “society is like stacked against us, man” is actually a completely true statement.

I do have nightly off-site backups, that’s true. Still, having the git repo be on the same machine doesn’t seem right to me.

I’d be a bit concerned with having the git repo also be hosted on the machine itself. If the drives break it’s all gone. I could of course have two remotes but then pushing changes still becomes a multi step procedure.

That’s a very good point!

Ignorant question: isn’t alt text primarily for visually impaired people? If so, what is the point of including info about color?

Quick feedback: your css transitions are way too long, opening the hamburger menu should not make me feel like I’m waiting for it to open.

Also you’ve gone for the card layout on the app list, however cards create the expectation that they are actionable yet clicking them does nothing. At least make the app names clickable.

I manage computer systems.

• What’s a computer? It’s a fancy calculator that can make moving paintings very quickly
• What’s a calculator? A fancy automatic loom that can do math like an abacus

That entirely depends on why you hate it / what you hate about it.
