  • If you use the public instance you don’t need to set up or host or install anything. You can selfhost it if you want, but the public instance works just fine.

    One person goes to the web page and starts a room. The other can join the same room by knowing the name of the room. (It will generate a link when you create a room to make it easy to send to someone so they can join by just clicking the link.)






  • The only thing more pointless is our PERFECTLY SPHERICAL ORBS, NOW HALF OFF IF YOU BUY TWO! BUT WAIT, THERES MORE! IF YOU CALL THE NUMBER ON YOUR SCREEN NOW, WE’LL THROW IN A LIMITED EDITION BONUS STAND TO HOLD YOUR ORB! THATS RIGHT, IF YOU CALL NOW YOU WILL GET TWO ORBS AND TWO STANDS FOR THE PRICE OF JUST ONE! CALL 1-800-PONDER AND ORDER YOUR TWO PONDERING ORBS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE!

    disclaimer perfectly spherical pondering orb incorporated does not guarantee increased ponderance, seer abilities, or supernatural powers. perfectly spherical pondering orbs are only fda approved for looking at to ponder. do not look at the sun through perfectly spherical pondering orb. do not drop perfectly spherical pondering orb. do not leave perfectly spherical pondering orb in reach of a child. this ad is brought to you by raid shadow legends.




  • They could create a new flag for Abandoned Early Access games. If an Early Access game hasn’t been updated in a long time, that could trigger an automatic email to the publisher saying “Hey your game hasn’t been updated in a long time and could be changed from Early Access to Abandoned Early Access. Consider updating the game or store page to keep Early Access status. If you would like to switch to Abandoned Early Access, you can ignore this message and it will automatically update in two weeks or you can manually change the status on your game’s Steam page.” Wouldn’t really need more employees to handle this unless the current employees are all too busy to implement something like it.



  • I swear there was at least one more server I looked at but passed over and I cannot recall the name.

    Maybe Jellyfin? It’s best at movies/shows but it also handles music (and more). The native music experience isn’t great but it works. For Windows/Linux/Mac you can use Feishin (I use and mostly recommend it, also you can use the web app version). Android has Symfonium I use and highly recommend it, also it works with FAR more than just Jellyfin). I don’t use iOS but I just looked for an iOS app and found AmpFin (not to be confused with Finamp).

    You said your users have their own libraries. Jellyfin works great with this. Out each in its own folder, create a new library for each in Jellyfin (pointing to each folder), and you can choose which accounts can see which libraries (and optionally let them manage libraries too so they can delete songs or modify metadata for the libraries they have access to).

    I’m a fan of Jellyfin if you couldn’t tell…


  • I use Watchtower and haven’t had any major issues in the two(?) years I’ve been using it. Make sure you use persistent volumes for your containers and make sure you back up those volumes. If anything breaks, you can roll back to before the update.

    If you don’t use persistent volumes, you’ll lose data when Watchtower takes down the image and replaces it with the newer one (which doesn’t copy over ephemeral volumes).

    I also recommend for database containers to use an image tag that won’t update with breaking changes. Don’t use postgres:latest, use postgres:15.2 or something like that (whatever the image you’re using the database for recommends).



  • Portainer does store compose files though? I’ve manually used docker compose commands from the folders Portainer saves them in. They’re labeled with numbers instead of project names which makes it difficult to know which one you’re looking for, but I use rga so that wasn’t as much of an issue for me as it would have been otherwise. It was tedious, but the compose files very much exist on your hard drive.




  • I don’t think people take dry heat seriously. Humid heat is obviously dangerous because you can’t sweat the heat out of your body as efficiently, but dry heat at these temperatures feels like walking outside and holding a hair dryer to your skin. It’s so fucking hot. You can feel the sun touching your skin like its physically reaching out. You sunburn from 5–15 minutes in the sun without sunblock. And it doesn’t cool off either, not really. Temperatures stay in the high 80s and low-to-mid 90s all night. “But it’s a dry heat” is really dismissive of how dangerous an unwavering 90–120° is, in this case for weeks on end.



  • The thing is in this case, it’s only human suffering. People don’t actually work nonstop all week. Giving them fewer hours over four days means they’re more productive for those days because they’re not dragging out their work to fill the arbitrary 40 hours they have to work for. So companies pay workers the same, but can save money in amenities and office space or whatever by using it less AND have more productive workers. Longer work weeks don’t actually make companies more money (oversimplifying and speaking broadly).


  • I imagine the largest mobile phone operating system on the planet has a few more downloads than one of the several available package managers for the comparatively very small desktop Linux audience, yeah. This is the Linux community, not the Android or Google community, so I’m not sure what you’re yapping away about or why.

    edit: i wanted to know how many devices run android and according to this it’s three billion so you’re wrong anyway lmao
