If you think bacon on ice cream is weird enough to cancel an order, I can only imagine you’ve never worked a customer service job.

bike lanes piss me off

Agreed! Most bike lanes end up being nothing more than a painted bicycle gutter.

What we truly need is dedicated cycle paths adjacent to busy roads, and low-traffic, low-speed streets in commercial or residential areas where cyclists and pedestrians are prioritized over car traffic (see the Dutch city-planning concept of autoluw)

The Canadian flag is not a “bog standard three stripes” design. It even introduced a new vexillological term; the Canadian pale.

I don’t understand why you think the maple leaf, a symbol which has been associated with Canada ever since there was a “Canada” to speak of, is “cringe”.

The Canadian flag is a vexillological masterpiece and I will die on this hill. I wouldn’t bother dying for my country, but I would for its flag. It’s instantly recognizable, simple yet symbolic, and honestly such a massive glow-up from the previous Red Ensign flag.

You want to see a cringe flag? Look at this atrocity:

That I have a tendency towards addiction with drugs. I’ve been high (marijuana) more often than not for the past decade, with spurts of alcoholism peppered in throughout my adult life. I also had a phase for about a year where I did shrooms once or twice a week.

I still struggle with my consumption, but at least now I’m aware that it can easily get to the point where it affects my life too much and can cut back when I’m starting to feel like I’m getting sucked in. I think I’ll always be an addict of some form or another, though.

Sriracha on pizza, you’re my kind of people.

I actually had somewhat of a dependency on sriracha at one point in my life. I was working at a summer camp, and the food being kinda bland I brought in a bottle of sriracha one day. Then a few others did the same. At the end of the summer, we were basically daring each other to douse our meals in unholy amounts of that rooster’s sauce.

It took me three weeks after the job ended to be able to taste anything that didn’t have sriracha on it.

I’m curious, what attracted you to the Conservatives prior to the Maple-MAGA movement?

King of the Hill. I love the characters so much, especially the dynamic between Hank and Bobby.

I’m so fucking tired of Americans saying shit like “omg Canada as the 51st state would totally skew our elections Democrat, get owned Trump!”

The reality is, in any scenario where Canada gets annexed by the US, American democracy will not exist anymore by then. Even if there are fake elections, we’d most likely not be allowed to vote (à la Puerto Rico, as you point out).

I do appreciate someone pointing out how utterly enraged us Francophones would be if subjected to US rule.

I just took an edible and it’s starting to kick in, but I still want to figure this out.

Getting stoned and getting the magic rocks in my homelab to do my bidding is one of my favourite ways to use up my time on this Earth.

When you post a link, you can add a thumbnail image URL! In the default lemmy-ui, it should be right under where you upload an image :)

I got a new job, and the group chat is on WhatsApp, so I’m looking into running a Synapse server with a bridge to it. I really don’t want to have to use Meta’s apps on my phone.

From what I’ve read so far, it seems like it’s going to be the most convoluted install process I’ll have encountered in my self-hosting journey. I’m excited to tackle it, but also a bit overwhelmed. Which is why I’ve been putting it off :P

Any ports used in docker will be open on your computer and accessible to any device in your network.

However, to open up a port to the internet, you’d have to do port-forwarding on your router. If you haven’t done that, any incoming connections will just be dropped at the router-level.

That’s actually so cool and the more I think about it the more it’s making me really want to host my own Lemmy instance. Can I ask what sort of hardware resources you’re running it on?

I’m reading it so I’d say it works!

They meant pinging your server from another device, I assume.

What error(s) do you get when you try to SSH into your server?

By “can’t access containers”, I assume you mean via devices you’re trying to connect to the server with? Can you still access the stuff you’re running in the containers directly on the server via localhost?

I’ll echo what the other commenter’s have said and you need to give us more info. “I added two containers” is pretty much useless if that’s all we have to go off of to start troubleshooting. More details on what exactly you did, any troubleshooting steps you’ve already tried, what specific errors you get, etc.

I can only assume it’d be a bridge for Nextcloud Talk.

I was having issues getting my Android device to use my local DNS server over VPN, what worked for me was setting it up through RethinkDNS. There’s a setting to prevent DNS leaks by capturing all traffic on port 53 and directing it to the DNS server you set. It doesn’t feel like an elegant solution but hey, it works.

Note, you’ll have to make sure your private DNS setting is off, in the internet section of the system settings.

From a quick Lemmy search, I’ve seen Njalla and 1984.hosting being recommended for these kinds of uses.

I’d rather not open ports I don’t have to. I don’t see why I’d have to open a port when Unbound works on my local network and I have access to my local network via Wireguard. I can access a whole slew of services through that one Wireguard port, why wouldn’t Unbound work?

Thanks anyway for trying to help, bud.

I could do that, but I want to avoid opening ports on my router’s firewall apart from the one necessary for Wireguard. I can access all my other stuff through Wireguard, but I can’t wrap my head around why it seemingly can’t access Unbound on the local host.
