UseNet over SSL?

Luckily I realized that I could Cloudflare-tunnel my Portainer UI out to a long random-nonsense subdomain name.

That allowed me to fix it (and then immediately kill the tunnel – not a fan of exposing Portainer to the internet).

Adding this device this also appeared to fix my https://github.com/haugene/docker-transmission-openvpn container that recently died. (And not simply giving it elevated privileges, as was previously recommended)

It appears that these issues all originate from an update to runc (which is used by containerd): https://github.com/containerd/containerd/issues/11078

EDIT: My suggestion probably doesn’t work for your use-case, but I’ll leave it for anyone else…

I use this to only tunnel the ports I actually need: https://github.com/DigitallyRefined/docker-wireguard-tunnel

My CGNAT’ed home PC is the client, and my public-facing Oracle Cloud instance is the server.

I’ve tried and failed miserably to use the “official” Wireguard container. Once I start reading suggestions to modify iptables outside of Docker, I know I’m in trouble.

I’m just thinking something as simple as the app triggering an event that unlatches a compartment that corresponds to that specific time. “It’s 12:00. Open the compartment with all the 12:00 meds.” You’d probably have to include multi-day support, too (I fill dad’s meds a month at a time in this - https://a.co/d/cRw0e93 )

That same event could do things like trigger a visual or audio alarm, too.

My goal would be to make it as hands-off as possible for him. He already finds ways to “cheat” the daily dispensers he has now.

EDIT: Look up Pyxis or Omnicell Dispensers for examples of unlatching compartments. We use these pretty extensively in hospitals.

EDIT 2: Here’s a good example (starting around 2:00) showing how the individual compartments unlatch: https://youtu.be/bPJSbexZNC4?t=120

Pharmacist here, struggling to find a way to keep my dad on schedule with his Parkinson’s meds.

Adding an option for webhooks at scheduled dispense times would open up some cool opportunities for nerds like us to create automated dispensing units.

If you don’t trust…

• The Associated Presss (citing US Intelligence),
• CNN (citing Microsoft), and
• NPR (citing “an Israeli watchdog group” – okay, I’ll give you this one),

…then who do you trust?

It almost sounds like you’re brushing off any media report as “a mouthpiece”, and only believing random anonymous posts on the Internet.

Isn’t it common knowledge that there is an Iranian state-sposored social media campaign doing the exact same thing for the other side?

Social Media is the best thing that has ever happened for Iran, Russia, & China in terms of expanding the reach of propaganda.

My daily trickplay task finished in 1 minute after the update. So apparently not.

Did they still find a way to blame their Western developers since they shed them all?

I’m legitimately worried about next gen, since Sony is doing the same thing with their pricing as GPU manufacturers.

That thing being, the increase in price is >/= the actual increase in performance. The PS5 Pro is a 75% price increase over the similarly disc-driveless $399 PS5 (hardware which is almost a half-decade old now).

There seems to be a TikTok campaign where certain people desperately want players to hate this game. I keep seeing this same skinny wispy-bearded dude over & over shitting on the game.

I keep seeing the videos, and what I watch just makes me say “It honestly doesn’t look bad to me.”

The Holy Trinity: VIM, Arch, and Rust

Free To Play in 3… 2…

Hey, at least all of us peeps in the US can upgrade our >$100 capped plans to unlimited for the low-low price of $30-50/month (i.e. what some of our friends overseas pay for their whole-ass unlimited crazyfast internet plan).

Your -arrs see the torrent download folder as /mnt/arr-stack/torrents/completed, and qBittorrent sees it as /downloads.

Maybe this is only a problem with Transmission, but I’ve had trouble making my Arr stack play nice with torrents when the different apps think downloads live in different folders.

Your ISP with a 1.2TB data cap: “lol.”

Strongly recommend a KDE-based distro if coming from Windows.

Gnome is too janky when you’re used to the workflow in Windows. It’s almost like Windows 8, which nobody uses if they can help it.

KDE is just way more familiar.
