Setting up Nginx Proxy Manager was easier than I thought! A few hurdles at first (longer blog post in the works) but I got it all working without much issue.

I am seeing things timeout every now and then but it seems a common problem so hopefully I can get that fixed.

I also managed to get docker running Nginx Proxy Manager on a Raspberry Pi, which had a few challenges but I think I've cleared all the hurdles.

The main issue was no clear direction on getting Docker and the container to startup at boot. Lots of forum post reading on that topic.

And yes, I still plan to use Podman when I can but I'm still new at this and just trying to actually get things working! ;)



Does it make sense for Firefox to continue having its own browser engine, instead of wrapping WebKit or Blink?

Found a recipe on the Good Housekeeping website. Bought everything yesterday to make it. Itโ€™s blurred out today - I have to JOIN GH+ to see it. Dโ€™oh!

So I made this. Itโ€™s good, but probably not the greatest for lunch prep. I would also add more stuff, probably mushrooms at least.

I got a mild white miso, it might need a stronger miso. And I put it with brown rice, quinoa or cous cous might have been a better side.

My husbandโ€™s sister, who lives in British Columbia, Canada, was telling him that people at her local grocery store are casually turning all American products on the shelves upside down to help others recognize them and not buy them.

Speaking from here in the fediverse, I donโ€™t think any of us particularly want commercial ads or data collection. Just saying in case they get any ideas

@TSchulte LOL Yep, that's why I left half of that in my sister's room, so she'll have a nice surprise when she gets home in a bit.

I found this site that lets you draw icebergs and see how they would float (joshdata.me/iceberger.html?fbcโ€ฆ) - I was looking for visualizations of the iceberg metaphor for behavior, how we only see 10% of what someone is really going through. Itโ€™s a great resource for that and also now Iโ€™m distracted seeing how an iceberg shaped like a cat would float.


While I feel more natural typing over handwriting, I must admit moving my journaling to handwriting has been a positive.

Less stream of consciousness writing, requiring more deliberate and slow thinking.

Walz: #Trump doesn't know how anything works. Trump is this caricature that had a reality TV show that pretended like he knew how to run bizโ€™s. The reality is, he doesn't..

& then he tells his supporters that only he can fix it. He's the guy who goes & starts the fire & then stands there & gives directions & acts like he knows how to put the fire out

4/ Walz: "The idea that the secretary of education would not know what IDEA is -- individuals with disability in education act -- that's like your mechanic not knowing how to put air in your tire. And she's in charge of this nation's education progress. It is catastrophic."

but what if we want to criticize Go for its philosophical shortcomings?
in reply to Irenes (many)

the company has openly stated that that's the goal, it's just they've said it in language that business majors understand and most programmers do not

we need to fucking learn. before it's too late.

(that was also the pitch behind Java, that's why all the business types got so excited about it, but Java didn't really fulfill that promise in the way Go does)



This week, the Trump administration cancelled all grant programs under the Violence Against Women Act. These grants fund most court protective order programs.

At the same time, Trump declares you are a domestic terrorist if you deface a Tesla.

Literally, a swasticar has more legal protection than a woman now.

What's with mastodon search? For example, I can't search for hashtags to find people with similar interests. Frustrating

@FediTips do you have a thought on this? Anyone else know if I'm missing something?

in reply to ts ๐Ÿš‰

Finding people works a bit differently on here as there deliberately isn't a central search engine (because someone nasty might take it over).

I've tried to do a guide for all the methods for discovering people to follow on here:

fedi.tips/how-do-i-find-accounโ€ฆ

If your server's search isn't giving you interesting results, you might want to try methods such as Fediverse directories or Fediverse groups as these methods are both server-neutral.

in reply to Fedi.Tips

thanks, but I'm still confused. One thing this page says is, "You can find a lot of interesting accounts nowadays just by typing keywords into the search box on Mastodon." But search does NOT (in my experience) search the text of a profile. Said text must be in the handle or display name - super limited.
in reply to ts ๐Ÿš‰

I had a look at your server's website, and it seems they don't have advanced search features installed. The advanced search requires the admin to install an add-on (called "elasticsearch"), but this costs extra so some admins don't install it.

You might want to ask your admin about this to make sure?

Because this place doesn't spy on users or run adverts, every server admin has to cover their server's costs and usually relies on donations from users to keep going.

in reply to ts ๐Ÿš‰

not trying to complain - I might just be too old or not tech-y enough for the Fediverse. Appreciate your help
in reply to ts ๐Ÿš‰

I don't think you have to be any particular age or skill level to use this place.

It can take a bit of time to get used to though as it is such a different structure. I hope I can help as the aim of my account is specifically to assist non-technical people ๐Ÿ™‚
