if they would stop calling it vandalism, it would take away all the fun

Allman if the condition is very long

while(isSomething
    &amp;&amp; isSomethingElse
    &amp;&amp; nFoo &lt; 10)
{
    bla();
    bla();
}

vs

while(isSomething
    &amp;&amp; isSomethingElse
    &amp;&amp; nFoo &lt; 10) {
    bla();
    bla();
}

Laws are changing in your region, so we're introducinga new choice about how we use your info for ads.

Which law?

are you sure you don't want to share an indirect kiss with all her past tinder dates?

here is a tool, that helps with making secure passwords, that respect all the current and former best practices https://neal.fun/password-game/

I recommend to use relevativ paths in the compose files. e.g.

  - '/home/${USER}/server/configs/heimdall:/config'

becomes

  - './configs/heimdall:/config'

you may want to add ":ro" to configs while you are at it.

also I like to put my service in /srv/ instead of home.

also I don't see anything about https/ssl. I recommend adding a section for letsencrypt.

when services rely on each other, it's a good idea to put them into the same compose file. (on 2nd thought: I am not sure if you already do that? To me it is not clear, if you use 1 big compose file for everything or many small ones. I would prefer to have 1 big one)

you can use "depends_on" to link services together.

you should be consistent with conventions between configurations. And you should remove config-properties that serve no purpose.:

you don't need to specifiy "container_name", when it would be same name as the service
PUID=1000 and PGID=1000 shouldn't be needed, I think.
sometimes you add explicit ":latest" to the version, and sometimes you don't

while you are at it, you may want to consider using an .env file where you could move everything that would differ between different deployment. e.g.

PUID
TZ
exposed ports, maybe

consider using podman instead of docker. The configuration is pretty much identical to docker-syntax. The main difference is, that it doesn't require a deamon with root privileges.

you may want to consider to pin version for the containers.

pro version pinning:

no unexpected changes, when you restart the container (e.g. because you accidentally pulled)

con version pinning:

when you DO want to make an update, you have to spent 2 minutes to go to docker hub to find out which version you want.

Anyway, well worth reading his complete works. Good shit. Grab a copy off me.

There is a torrent for the audiobooks, narrated by Wayne June (the narrator from Darkest Dungeon).

Wayne Junes reading Lovecraft is a match made in heaven. I strongly recommend giving it a try

what kind of projects or whatever can i do to have fun again without feeling stressed.

Write programs that scratch your own itch.
write bots for communities you care about.
write userscripts/browserextentions
do programming/hacking challenges

(for stuff that is always online, like a bot, or a webservice, I recommend getting a dedicated computer, like a raspberry pi or a small vps)

also some general recommendation

keep you goals small and tangible. If a thing takes more than one sitting to complete, it will add to your stress when you add the remainder to your todo list.
do the simplest thing, that could possibly work.
when doing new stuff, use chatgpt to come up with a plan/boilerplate/demo/2nd opinion.

from personal experience: before I went to college, I had lots of fun doing programming challenges. During college I lost all interest in programming. At my first real job, I regained my love for programming, when I started programming things, that actual people need to improve their daily work. Since then I enjoy programming for work, as well as in my free time.

what you are doing is called "Individualization of Responsibility" and it is a successfull tactic used by fossil-fuel-lobbies to shift blame away from themselves.

edit: don't get me wrong. I don't think you are doing this intentionally. But I do think, that by accident you are being useful to fossil-fuel companies

what's with the square at the end? isn't that usually for proofs?

what is the bare minimum of security measures you can do?

I guess just the normal things with p2p stuff: make sure no ports are exposed except for the essentials, update software, use SSL wherever possible.

When you don't use VPN, people will see your actual IP adress and will launch the same kind of attacks, they also launch on servers [1] to try to hijack your system and add them to their bot net.

[1] port scans, login-attemps, applying known exploits. If this doesn't sound scary, you should try operating a server that is exposed on the internet and then look at the number of login attemps.

As opposed to Threads stealing all brands companies and users anyway?

The extend-phase is when people migrate to threads, who would have stayed otherwise.

this is the way.

As someone who has watched more than enough anime: It is an aquired taste and most of it is trash, especialy most of the popular stuff.

is religious fanatics fighting religious fanatics. Fuck all of 'em

I am with you.

Though it would be nice if refugees from palestia would get asylum in Europe (which they don't), then the non-fanatics could get out of there, while the crazies do their thing.
