It's not quite as point-and-click, but I'm using Docker for that because Yunohost kept messing up updates. Most server apps will have some instructions on how to run them in docker, especially a docker-compose.yml file, so you don't have to rely on the Yunohost team to package said app.

The way I do it is that I put each suggested compose file in their own file, and import them in my main docker-compose.yml file like this:

    
version:  '3'
include:
    - syncthing.yml


  

Then just run docker compose pull && docker compose up -d every time you change something or want to update your apps, and you're good to go.

Software updates in particular are waaaaaayyy easier on Docker than Yunohost.

Owner of 2 pinecils here, there are buttons and a display that shows the current temperature and other stuff. I only just learned that there's an app, it works more than fine on its own, out of the box.

I got that specific iron because I needed to power it from 12v, and it works very well on the USB PD power supply I already have for my laptop.

Docker's secret that most "getting started" tutorials seem to miss is docker-compose.yml. Who wants to type these long-ass commands to start containers? I always just create a compose file, and then docker compose up -d.

Dockerfile is for developers, you shouldn't need more than a docker-compose.yml for self-hosting stuff.

Yeah, there's some stuff on the side, but get a can of chef boyardee, a sealed packet of crackers and a pop tart, and that's pretty much it. Add some Qwik and Gatorade powder for hydration, maybe. At 250$ per 12-pack it's more expensive than eating out.

I'm involved with the Canadian cadet program, and these are the exact ones we eat when we go on expédition, they're nothing fancy. They are convenient, though.

It's still basically canned food, it's just that the can is a pouch. It's more expensive too.

Well, someone did it at least partly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdPRhkbeQJk

Altough in this case it's to improve acceleration, not anything related to privacy.

Canadian here. It really depends on if it's a cultural use or something the government might have an influence on through legislation. They can force industries to label packages in metric, but they can't force grandma to change her manually-transcribed recipes. The other big influence is obviously our neighbours to the south. A lot of industries haven't switched over there, and we get their products. Main culprit here would be the construction industry, lumber and hardware is all in US customary units and I hate it.

The motherfuckers who do this take said turn at like 2km/h, they're not racing at all

Something something dining philosophers.

Well, isn't murder a crime? There's your broken law...

Have you watched Idiocracy? I consider myself a smart guy, and having children is my way to fight against the world getting stupider.

Also, it is a joy. Yeah, it's expensive, and yeah, it's a ton of work. But it's like working on a very big project that you know you'll be proud of when it's done. I didn't understand it before because I only experienced other people's children, but it's different with your own children in a way that's hard to explain.

Oh, my sweet summer child...

From this thread, looks like you're right, sadly...

Even if Assange himself was openly interfering in US politics, how is that relevant? If he isn't a US person, and he's not on US soil, why would he be bound by US law? US law isn't universal law, you know.

Yes, but that's not treason. It could be treason if he was American, but he isn't.

I fail to see how that's relevant here. The guy isn't a US national and wasn't in the US when he committed his alleged "crime".

He has absolutely no duty towards the US and is 100% free to associate with whoever he wants, and yes, even Russia.

US has no standing whatsoever in this situation, and it's a travesty of international law that Sweden and the UK even entertained the idea of extraditing him. The response should've been "go sue the American who actually committed that crime on American soil. Oh wait, you've already convicted her, and she's already out after serving her sentence? WTF are you going on about then?"

Isn't that already illegal? As far as I remember, ad breaks during my morning cartoons were either for other shows on the network or Swiffer and laundry detergent.

The lining in question is very thin (akin to a layer of paint) and just burns up when the cans are re-melted.

Recycling beer bottles is indeed pretty easy once you get them to the processing center intact, but it's getting there that's the hard part. They're fragile, pretty heavy and don't stack well unless you put them in some form of packaging.

Once they're broken, they're basically useless; glass isn't recycled much except as grit material for sandpaper; re-melting it is resource-intensive and sensitive to impurities.

I've read all of them, and I really enjoyed them. It's true that it's basically "Royal Navy in space", and it might be a little cheezy, but it's a pretty relaxing read.

The space combat stuff gets much better in the later books, Weber managed to build satisfying mechanics for it. There's some good political intrigue too. The one thing that pulled me "out" of the books a couple times were some character names, some of them are pretty ridiculous (Queen Elizabeth III for example).

I'm one of these, my name is definitely male but when you read it it's really easy to confuse with the female version. It doesn't help that it's really rare in my generation while the female version is much more popular. All this resulted in me getting misgendered on a regular basis. A few examples:

• as a teenager, I won a prize with a monetary award. The check was for the female version of my name.
• when I got my first house, I signed up ONLINE for the electric utility. The invoice ended up being addressed to the female version of my name. I sure as heck didn't make a mistake in my own name when signing up, so someone over there must have "corrected" my name
• I once went to a week-long course, where we each were assigned an individual room, but bathrooms and showers were shared across all rooms on that floor. I was assigned a room on the ladies' floor, which took me a while to realize as I thought it was just mixed-gendered.
• and that's without counting the hundreds of times teachers took attendance. I'd say at least half of them got it wrong.

Anyway, I thought pronouns were a bit of a weird thing for trans and non-binary people, but as a very cis man who's had issues with people reading my name wrong, I put my pronouns in my signature now.
