Thanks for the tip

PhpBB for life!

It’s a photo sharing site using ActivityPub for the federation, but it’s not Pixelfed.

It’s a direct copy from this graph, with just the logos replaced for federated/semi-federated services: https://feddit.org/post/13181365

Where Facebook is meant for the over 60 crowd, instead of Friendica, and TwitterX and Threads for the opinionated assholes instead of Mastodon, etc.

There the categories make a bit more sense.

This is a Vernissage: https://vernissage.photos/

Went to their website, clicked on the link that said “Click here to see the popular GnuSocial sites you can join”, and it showed a completely empty list. That seems indicative of something. :)

Sorry, you’re going to have to use Friendica, it’s the law.

What’s the logo with the devilish “G” for? I might need to migrate away from Mastodon for that platform.

Oh wait, that’s probably GnuSocial, isn’t it? I’ll stick with Mastodon, even though I’m too old now :D

So far I’ve created a new ProxMox container for each application I wanted to run. So I have pihole running in an LXC, Nextcloud in another LXC, Audiobookshelf in yet another LXC, Home Assistant in a VM, etc.

I’m sure that could be done more efficiently with Docker, but for some reason that just doesn’t want to click. I don’t know where the applications end up installed at, I don’t know how to configure stuff, nor how to run multiple docker containers on the same machine.

Immich is the first application I have managed to get running full time in Docker, but I’ve already encountered an issue with uploads that I can’t solve, because I have no idea where to find the config files, nor how to restart it. So I’ll leave it as is, for now. Maybe when my brain can get engaged, I can try again.

I seem to be unable to wrap my head around Docker. I have one application running through Docker (Immich) but I have no idea how it works. It’s running, and until further notice, I ain’t touching it.

I have Home Assistant running through an instance on my Proxmox server. That I can understand much better than anything Docker.

It’s primarily used for audiobooks. Those need to be stored somewhere.
The podcast feature of Audiobookshelf uses the same structure, so the server downloads the file and the client can then find it and either download it to your local device or stream it from your server.

If you don’t want that, I wouldn’t use Audiobookshelf as an intermediary tool. I’d use Pocket Casts, or antennapod or some such.

It took me a while to get my head around how it worked, and initially I would have enormous automations “turn on light X at 75%”, “turn on light Y at 55%”, “turn on power outlet XYZ”, “close shades window XYZ” for each and every lamp and feature I wanted for the evening, for instance. And you could actually see those things happen sequentially.

Now it’s just “turn on scene 1” and poof all lights are on exactly how I want them.

I use scenes and automate those scenes. That way, if I ever get a new light or have to replace a bulb, I only have to update the scenes.

And that’s why it’s clear to me that you have a mental defect.

It’s been nice playing with you, but now I’m bored, bye.

I don’t know why you are talking about labs in this comment.

Yes, power outages are possible through cyber attacks, and they could become more prevalent. But according to the experts, this particular incident was not a cyber attack. And I prefer to listen to experts than my gut, as my gut is far too often wrong!

Weather engineering is also something that exists, but that is also highly unlikely to be the cause of this particular power outage.

You go ahead and stay in your conspiracy bubble, meanwhile we in reality continue to live our lives like normal.

That’s not how anything works.

There are only 2 instances of media outlets being banned based on the outcome of a political action and both had been known to spread complete and utter nonsense as “alternative facts” before they were banned: Russia Today and Sputnik.

There’s not a great big cabal that says what’s true and what’s not.

There are objective facts, there are opinions and there are complete fabrications aka lies aka “alternative facts”.
Facts are fine.
Opinions are fine, but they’re not facts.
Complete fabrications or “alternative facts” are not fine, they can be objectively judged to be complete fabrications.

Yes, I was aware of the power outages, and yes I still think that NWO is a conspiracy theory. There’s no connection between the NWO and the power outage, which was likely due to big variations in atmospheric temperatures. There’s been no evidence of foul play or cyber attacks.

I checked OPs comment history, not sure if conspiracy theory believers about NWO and Cabals are going to have a great time on here.

What exactly are the “EU norms” you’re talking about?
