the most concerning part for me is the "LA woman" charge... is that just a restaurant?
this is something that has always bothered me... I never found the appeal in that and, of course, was pressured by social circles to join in on clubs and similar. this just feels like the most stupid waste of time, as I can't find any enjoyment on it, and when I watch others doing it they surely look weird and lost in a way. specially the ones I know personally and can attest to their intellect and rational.
eventually I stopped joining them but it kept intriguing me. after reading about it and having long conversations with friends, my conclusion is that this is some left over form of primitive sexual bonding that predates complex speech and became instinctual, a la some "mating dance" ritual. particularly, some more enlightened male friends see that as a "necessary evil" to have sex while others simply never gave me a clear answer (probably don't ask themselves much and just abide by the social rules). the only thing I could pull from females has been a dismissing "I just like to dance".
so much so that I could (anecdotally at least) observe very repeatable patterns such as: single couple that eventually meets in a party then stops going, girl that simultaneously loses interest in their partner and gains interest in clubbing which ends up in "someone new" popping up, etc.
as for myself, I can't really explain the lack of drive. I know for sure I'd rather communicate using actual language and not be in crowded, dark places moving my body aimlessly, faking enjoyment. needless to say, this stance heavily lowers one's chance to mate, as the whole paradigm revolves around it (at least outside of the dreadful online dating world). so sometimes it can take years for me to develop a new relationship after one has ended. fun fact is that every single one of my girlfriends loved to dance, some even took classes on artistic styles and whatnot.
tldr: I agree
mates used to do that, tastes worse and it's a bit disgusting (that creepy black oil 🤢)
been 6 years for me. it lasted a long time but their shadow fades away eventually. I'm living in peace now
stay strong, survivor
yeah. I have the feeling that this story is way too common. which is very telling of how much the system isn't driven towards innovation as many claim. we brag a lot about human ability to pass down knowledge via written language and turns out that most information passed down on some of the highest tech industries is done verbally or not at all! lol
yep, agreed will all of that
in any case, I never been somewhere where this is properly done to the letter (from an individual's or managerial's perspective). not that I REALLY care tbf, I just do my part to the best of my knowledge and fly away hehe

Pretty much any subdomain will go to the nginx server and it will only do something if youve configured that subdomain in the config - everything else just gets ignored, or you can setup a catchall to handle all the unconfigured stuff
so you will need something like this (might not be exact, been a long time since i had to configure NGINX haha)
server {
server_name ha.mydomain.duckdns.org;
location / {
proxy_pass http://hostnameOrIP1:port1;
}
}
server {
server_name nextcloud.mydomain.duckdns.org;
location / {
proxy_pass http://hostnameOrIP2: port
}
}
an easier way would be to use Nginx Proxy Manager which gives you a nice GUI to add and manage all the sites.
[-] thunderbox666 « 1 point 2 months ago Anything that has a web service, such as nextcloud or home assistant, can be setup on a domain or sub domain
So you would setup the domain (for example let's say you have myhome. duckdns.org) to point to your server running nginx reverse proxy, and then configure all your services in there
So you might setup homeassistant.myhome.duckdns.org and point it to the internal address you use for home assistant, eg http://192.168.1.15:8123
Then you might add nextcloud as nextcloud.myhome.duckdns.org to point to https://192.168.1.15 These can all be on the same machine as nginx reverse proxy or on another machine all together
Some of these services might also need extra configuration but most will also have guides on their site on what you need to configure to work with a reverse proxy
I don't think I agree with you, replaceability depends on a lot of factors, really.
I'm a lead dev who works mostly in test automation and dev ops. I can assure you that no matter how much and thoroughly I document and share knowledge (I've became known in my company for that since every piece of doc has my name somewhere on it lol) I can't see anyone around there being able to fully take the reins if something happened to me.
in my case, it's a mixture of talent crisis in the industry, lack of interest/expertise in the field and my own company's culture (that doesn't value these infrastructural subjects enough). I bet other people from different areas in tech might share different reasons
but all in all, being irreplaceable is hardly an employee's fault. if a company can't manage to lose an employee (or lets people get away without documenting/sharing knowledge) it's entirely their own fault!
to me, that's one of the biggest tragedies of our time. there are several catastrophic problems to be fixed worldwide and yet we send some of our most brilliant engineers to silicon valley to work on advertising companies
I guess creating backup accounts elsewhere is always a good idea (regardless of the stability of a given instance - I mean who'd have guessed the whole Mali thing? lol)
on that matter, does anyone know where I can find a list of instances that don't have swearing censorship? I've finally finished my potty training and I think I'm ready for it
thanks for sharing the stories. I'm not myself an anarchist, as I also agree with that reasoning.
however, not being practical doesn't prevent people from defending it from an idealistic point of view. and to be fair, I think we always have to be open-minded about the limitations imposed by our contemporary mindset - remember that some people can't even conceive a world without capitalism because of them, where it could be perfectly possible (and we should probably do it hehe)
I believe they might have the etymology in common - probably because the word anarchism became sort of a synonym for any type of "chaos", but anarchism as a political movement is widely known as an extreme left-winged ideology! Which is explicitly against all forms of institution, specially corporations
I think your misundertand the concept of private property and communism. Which could be skewing your opinion on the matter
