‘I Don’t Know the Situation’: Trump Dodges Question About Pulling Endorsement for Mark Robinson
  • Basically the horror Ginni Thomas sees every Saturday night.

  • Anon takes a driving test
  • That’s a hell of a spin you just put on failing the driving test 5 times.

  • Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it
  • MC Ride with Beyonce

    Just because you aren’t Beyoncé doesn’t mean you aren’t beautiful.

  • 2nd-ever nitrogen gas execution in US set to take place in Alabama
  • After the other one, I’d be very afraid.

  • Half of voters plan to cast ballots early, with a huge partisan split
  • Texas is a lot bluer than people give it credit for, but we are one of the most gerrymandered states in the union. Going blue will take more like 70/30 instead of 51/49.

    Before people judge the state, they should look at how the populated cities vote, and understand that the big swaths of red on the election map tend to be inhabited by cows and hogs.

  • Experiment: yellow and pink
  • Maybe I’m just charging at windmills, but this is what I see:

    1. The weight of a phone will risk ripping the hole or removing the button when it falls.

    2. The length of chain makes it impossible to hold your phone out for a selfie.

    3. You can’t hand your phone off to anyone else to look at something.

    4. You create a WTF moment every time you pull your phone out.

    Most importantly, there is a cheap, ubiquitous, and reliable solution that fixes all of these problems—the trusty cellphone case.

    Watch chains used with a watch will protect the fragile watch without risking your vest, allows the watch to be held at the correct distance for use, and visibly suggest that you have the time.

    At the end of the day, you do you, but choosing quirky accessories that are worse tools for the purpose you are choosing to use them for is the number one reason that people get called out for trying too hard in fashion.

  • Experiment: yellow and pink
  • Not gonna lie, that makes it a little worse. The best part about being eccentric is having it suit your life. I’m calling it now, nobody needs a cellphone chain.

  • Experiment: yellow and pink
  • I like it, but the pocket watch is at the border of too much. I’m reminded of the advice “get fully dressed, and then take one accessory off”.

    If you are going to an event that justifies it though (occult, horology, etc.), then it works.

  • How about we play, "Never have I ever"?
  • Indeed, a lot of drugs that are non toxic have tolerance created in the brain, while more toxic drugs have to get processed by the kidneys and liver, which is why the functioning of those organs contributes to tolerance.

  • How about we play, "Never have I ever"?
  • The tolerance isn’t totally mental, it just takes longer to build and recede than alcohol does.

    To each their own though, not trying to pressure anybody.

  • How about we play, "Never have I ever"?
  • That’s why people smoke it. You can feel how high you are with each puff and can control it easily.

    Weed may be strong, but it isn’t fentanyl. One toke over the line is not the danger zone—even less so than one alcohol shot over the line.

  • Putin’s much-feared ‘Satan 2’ nuclear missile failed 4 out of 5 tests

    What is the best type of smart lock?

    Hello Lemmy!

    I have moved to a walkable area and no longer need to have my car keys on me all the time. My landlord has put in a crappy 4 digit combination style door lock, but said I could change it.

    What is the best kind of keyless door lock that I can use instead? Ideally one with decent enough security to be as good or better than a key?

    Thanks for your input!

    [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.

    Media Library Statistics Display for Public Viewing

    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?

    [Wishlist] BOINC Screensaver with WebUI

    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.
