Yeah, I could never get NPM to work right on my system either. I use the NGINX Docker image and set up my certs manually.

If I were to do it all over again today, I would probably go with Caddy since it now has a bunch of that stuff built in with automatic HTTPS by default and the basic reverse proxy setup is literally 2 lines of code.

You could try Logseq, it's like Obsidian but open source. I use Obsidian for most notes and I also have a personal wiki built with Otterwiki.

I use NGINX for my reverse proxy, you could check out NGINX Proxy Manager which uses Certbot to automate the SSL certificates.

I've heard a lot of people also like Caddy and Traefik. Can't remember which is easier to use, maybe Caddy.

It's mostly my wife that buys fruity herbal teas and stuff, but my favourite tea is Twinnings Vanilla Earl Grey. Very rich and fragrant.

I'm basic though. I don't even know the difference between different types of tea, like black, white, green, etc. I usually just go by smell.

I liked the Palia beta and the Chinese New Year event. The world seems a bit dead sometimes though, and the quests can be boring. I haven't played in a while, I lost interest. I'll have to revisit it sometime.

I'd have to agree. I met my wife on OKCupid in 2016 and almost immediately after that it changed several key features and became complete garbage.

Earl Grey Pie, it's really easy if you use frozen pie crusts.

I smoke weed and watch TV. I also take Zoloft every day and it works pretty well at minimizing my intrusive thoughts too (which mostly happen at night) so it's like multi-pronged for me.

Idk, if you've been going through this for a while and nothing in this thread works, you could look into antidepressants; you don't have to be on them forever. A lot of the common ones are somewhat affordable without insurance.

It's exceptionally difficult already for a woman to get sterilized. The decider may be whether sterilization has the same stigma/religious fervor around it that abortion has in that people will willingly waste their weekends off protesting against it.

I'm optimistic, but America likes to disappoint me.

SCOTUS: "Good news, everyone! We figured out how to keep up the prison population amid record low crime rates so you won't have to pay minimum wage, isn't that great?"

If you're going to speak for all conservatives, you're also going to take responsibility for all of their beliefs and decision-making, like the desire to outlaw contraceptives. If you don't want that, don't speak for others.

Are YouTube shorts still 1 minute maximum? Until that changes, I don't think they'll be a viable replacement since content longer than a minute seems to be the sweet spot for a sizeable amount of Tiktok's user base. Especially when it comes to informative or political content.

Same, been watching Dead Like Me and Xena: Warrior Princess and it's pretty distracting when it happens.

I'm not streaming it, it's on my media server, so there are no ads. I don't pay for any services except Shudder because it's still cheap and niche.

Why not try running your own local instance of Nitter? No Nazis that way. I would if I used Twitter more.

Wow, her dad died last month and they took away her prom just to be assholes. She's going to be home schooled next year so that was her only chance to go.

Even cis people aren't allowed to go against Big Gender, lol. Conservatives are wild.

The prefix Fitz- means "bastard son of," according to my high school English teacher. So... the joke just got funnier, depending on your sense of humour.

Didn't most of those programmers from the 60s and 70s have like, Master's degrees in mathematics? Computers were massive, expensive machines that were used largely by universities and research facilities - you definitely couldn't buy your own and teach yourself how to program it like you can now.

That sounds like a fucking nightmare. I had to troubleshoot poorly-written-yet-somehow-functional GOTOs a lot when I was a BAS technician and that's annoying enough.

No, because the US will veto their membership since it's on the UN Security Council, which has the final say.

The cruelty is the point.

This isn't gossip, the police department confirmed that it happened. Recent developments about prominent figures are news even if you don't think it's newsworthy.

The FBI and the US Coast Guard already cleared them to leave. The city wants them to stay.

I'm not really sure what removing a female sex offender's ovaries are supposed to do to prevent recidivism. As far as I'm aware, that wouldn't do anything but send her into early menopause; restlessness, irritability, and libido might actually increase, which may make reoffending more likely.

I (and many other PC gamers) will never buy a PS5 simply to play a sequel. I would sooner watch a let's play or just not engage with it at all.

Honestly, I am leaning toward the psychiatrist being correct. From your limited description of your symptoms, it does sound like either schizoaffective disorder or schizophrenia. I am not a mental health professional at all, so you may want to get a third opinion from a psychiatrist or psychologist.

Treatment is expensive for any mental health condition, it really is unfortunate and unfair that there aren't more free/accessible supports. Sometimes it does feel like you're getting scammed (I have ADHD, most medications are very expensive and pharmacies sometimes treat you like a drug addict), but taking medicine can help a lot depending on the person.

Medication for schizophrenia has come a long way in the last 3 decades.

What's a ratio limit? /s

I'm currently seeding all of the Evil Bong movies, and I resurrected one of the torrents from the grave by finding a DDL of the release - feels good man.

Osteopaths (who have a Doctorate of Osteopathy and are often referred to as DOs) go to medical school and receive training that's almost exactly the same as an MD.

Every male in the US under a certain age (I think it's close to 30? I'm not American) has to register under penalty of law.

This also applies to immigrant boys/men who become citizens and transgender men (people born female who gain legal recognition as a male).

Windows from 1999 until December 2023. Debian since then!

A short text the day after Father's Day. Then you did send something, it just wasn't timely or appreciative.

That said, I generally send my shitty dad a text on the actual day. It usually just says, "Happy Father's Day, have a good one." Last year I forgot to send one and then, when I remembered, chose not to.

TL;DR: do as much or as little as you want.

Morrissey’s face was not captured in the video, but fellow lawmakers were able to identify her by her gray hair.

Lol, fucking roasted.

Damn, I really liked Kingsway. I hope it'll be saved and people will still get to play it.

Free software can be freely copied, modified, distributed, etc. This doesn't mean you don't have to pay for it.

Open source software has its source code published. It doesn't necessarily mean that you're able to copy some or all of it, modify it, distribute it, etc.

It's getting more and more common that, even in cases where code is open source, only part of the codebase is actually available. This is something that Microsoft (and other wealthy tech companies) loves to do to show that it's "transparent."

I'd love to, but you need at least 1 kid to qualify. My wife and I can't afford a kid and also don't want one. But it's nice that the option is available for some, I guess.

Biden has been a Zionist advocate for 40+ years. He probably believes that supporting Israel gives the US a stronghold in the middle east, and he's probably right.

Israel is a proxy state for the "war on terror" so that the area's resources can be extracted by western powers with little organized resistance. It's textbook imperialism.

"Traditionally, trans people have had no explicit rights based on their trans status, and we have to respect the sanctity of that clearly deliberate omission."

Coffee and a croissant for me and my wife.

Just because other people saw me as a certain gender doesn't mean I actually was, especially not when it comes to my sense of self.

I'm not trying to erase something that existed, I'm asking my family to reframe my childhood from the way they saw it to the way I actually experienced it. They're empathetic and they love me, so they do me that service.

I would ask a reporter attempting to cover my life story to do so in a way that's consistent with how I want my life to be portrayed. Seems like basic respect.

What a distressing miscommunication.

In what accent does a W have an R sound? Australian?

You could try Tailscale? It creates a secure tunnel to your server so you don't have to connect it to the internet. Not sure if that checks all your boxes though.
