Respectfully, you don’t know what you’re talking about. I live on the border, am in Mexico several times per week, and have traveled the country pretty extensively. Most areas of Mexico are as safe as any city in the rest of the western world as long as you’re not intentionally fucking around and finding out.

And I’ll say this—you’re way less likely to get a mass shooting at a Walmart in Mexico than you are to get one in America.

Because sardonic and sarcastic both start with the letter s, and Lemmy hasn’t pioneered a different shorthand for the former yet.

Behold! BEHOLD! The birth…of a copypasta.

And may I suggest Mexico? It’s a beautiful country full of wonderful food, music, and people. North America is a shit sandwich, but the bread on both ends is quite magnificent.

Sometimes, though it makes no logical sense, it isn’t a bad idea to fight fire with fire. Maybe find some way to create a ritual you can do at home to exorcise the feeling of demons.

Also, go to therapy. There is nothing wrong with multiple angles of attack when dealing with a problem like yours.

Just be careful to avoid charlatans or anybody who wants to charge you a lot of money for some sort of spiritual healing—those people are frauds.

You’re missing the point. Vote Blue No Matter Who means that competitors are supposed to step aside after a primary and support the winning candidate. In practice, this means they expect the losing progressive candidate to suck it up and support the establishment democrat. Now that a progressive has won the primary, the establishment democrat is refusing to step aside.

So yes, he technically won’t have a D next to his name, but it is well understood that he is an arm of the political machine that is refusing to respect the will of the voters.

Don’t be a square, man! /s

I thought you were against bangers.

Well…I won’t kink shame. Just not my bag, I guess.

Yeah, neither of them is doing you any favor with their beliefs trumping a diagnosis.

They don’t say male because that is encapsulated in “be me.” It’s males all the way down.

[Promoting] Gluetun: The Little VPN Client That Could

My journey with docker started with a bunch of ill fated attempts to get an OpenVPN/qBittorrent container running. The thing ended up being broken and never worked right, and it put me off of VPN integration for another year or so.

Then recently I found Gluetun…and holy fucking cow. This thing is the answer to every VPN need I could possibly think of. I have set it up with 3 different providers now, and it has been more simple and reliable than the clients made by the VPN providers themselves every time.

If you combine the power of Gluetun with the power of Portainer, then you can even easily edit settings for your existing containers and hook them up to a VPN connection in seconds (or disconnect them). Just delete the forwarded ports in the original container, select the Gluetun container as the network connection, and then forward the same ports in Gluetun. Presto, you now have a perfectly functioning container connected to a VPN with a killswitch.

So if any of y’all on the high seas have considered getting more serious about your privacy, don’t do what I did and waste a bunch of time on a broken container. Use Gluetun. Love Gluetun. Gluetun is the answer.

Ceylon Scenery - Edward Lear (1874)

 

I’m hoping to find some kind of statistical display for my media library that I can show on my website. I found Medialytics, which is a little rough, but essentially what I’m looking for, but it isn’t secure enough for public display because the Plex token is included in the script for the page.

Does anybody know of a good statistics display for a large media library that would have a publicly displayable page similar to uptime-kuma?

Night on the El Train- Edward Hopper; etching (1918)

 

I have found several docker containers that allow you to run a BOINC server as a container, but I haven’t seen any that give you access to the BOINC screensaver. My ideal would be if the screensaver itself was shown on a dedicated port so it could be used easily as a display without any controls popping up.

Sadly, I have no idea how to make this or how to get a custom container made. I guess I’m just throwing this idea out to the universe in hope that it happens someday.
