Not really. In most European countries inequality is still huge, with service jobs earning less than a living wage.


That’s not intirely true. Some people definitely are like that, like in any country. Others agree that if you work and pay taxes, you deserve all the same benefits.


Haha OK. DIY server is like legos, docker is playmobil.


Maybe I can start shedding some light off docker.
When you start setting up a server, you end up having to setup many things. You install various programs and their dependencies. Sometimes those dependencies can conflict with each other, or you mess up your system by manually pasting some command you found on stack exchange. Then you need to manually keep all the software you use up-to-date and pray they don’t brick your server and force you to start over. And then when you need to update your OS or move to a new machine, you need to repeat this whole dance again.
Docker is like legos. You want to install jellyfin? There’s already a docker imagine for that. You just spin it up with some little configure file and you’re done. You want to setup a firewall? You want to setup https access? Automatic updates? There are docker images already made for it.
So you keep on setting up those docker containers and they all run in isolation but can communicate with each other. If you break something, you just restart one or all the containers and you always start fresh. Docker keeps nothing in memory, unless you explicitly want it (e.g. Your jellyfin config will presist in external config files).
Want to move to a new machine? You can just copy over the scripts that run the docker containers and those config files. Software updates? Just update the docker container and it handles all dependencies.
Also, Jellyfin all the way. It’s open source and free all the way.

Some people need a slap in the face. When I was mod sometimes I couldn’t handle all the crap. But if someone messaged me nicely and seemed understanding, I always replied in kind.

Reddit mods are power hungry assholes. This one specifically too. But you also broke the rules of the sub. When I was a mod of a small sub having to handle all sorts of people giving me attitude, I wasn’t paid enough for it.
You weren’t like “oh sorry, I didn’t understand replying to questions with info about my work broke rule 9”. You were more like “how dare you”.


Because the electricity pulls the magnets down in the same measure, so they meet in the middle. Newton’s 2nd law or something.


Depends on the price of the land.


If OP is in Europe and his budget is 600€, I second this. But I’m concern with the reports that customer care has taken a dive lately.


Guys, it’s about training AI on your emails.


Without reading, I bet it’s about training AI on your emails.


During summer I like to just make salads with many ingredients. Leafy vegetables, seeds, fruits, nuts. Add a can of beans and you have a great meal.


There’s no toxic canned beans. You can explore cooking beans yourself later as you find out which ones you like most.


I don’t know where OP lives, but for the vast majority of people in the world, it’s cheaper to cook plant based meals than eating meat, eggs and dairy foods. The exceptions is in places that have poor access to fresh food. But even then usually rice and dry beans is the cheapest food and very shelf stable.
The main reason it might be hard to pull off is if OP is not able to cook due to lack of skill, time, space, time. Many people end up depending on frozen meals or cheap take out because they have 2 jobs or something. But if you have time to cook and access to a supermarket, there’s nothing hard about vegan cooking.


Just fruits would be very hard¹. But plant based diets are very common with minimal supplementation (vitamin b12 is needed and eventually vitamin D, folic acid, iodine, could be added if missing from your diet).
Look up Plant Based Whole Food diets (PBWF). A source I rather enjoy is the “vegan doctor” Dr. Greger and his “daily dozen”: https://nutritionfacts.org/topics/daily-dozen/
Basically what he says is that if you manage to eat foods from all 12 groups every day, you probably have a good diet.
¹ Most fruits are just packets of sugar, water and some vitamins. If you include nuts you get more protein and fats. But you might not get enough variety of protein and vitamins from those.


I typically wake up naturally nd go to bed not too late. So I can say I go from waking up to being awake in less than a minute. This sometimes causes me to have insomnia if it happens at 4AM because I become incredibly awake.


Basically it’s a URL that you call with curl. You can set up a crown job to call every day or as often as you need. The URL contains the domain name or subdomain, you dynamic public IP (not CNAT), and the API token. This way you Domain always points to your dynamic IP.


Namecheap, and I guess other registrars too, has an API that you can call from your server to update your IP address in their DNS. It’s super easy. No need to pay for a static IP address. At least in my case ei already use my domain for other things.
And since when is the easiest way the funnest way? :P
Yeah, I think you should cosplay as a nazi the same way we wear fake guns. You better make it abundantly clear that it’s a toy/costume.
