In a general sense? No, i don't think most people require a lesson

But I'm deadass about the lesson, we learned how to read a map, use the map scale, different types of maps, etc etc

Do they not teach this in all schools? I definitely learned map reading in grade school, and I'm Gen Z so being able to read a map was never a necessity in my life

The blurry image appears to depict an animal, and based on the suggested search results, it could potentially be a ferret, hamster, bobcat, cougar, or red fox. Given the shape and coloring, it most closely resembles a ferret.

Im gonna go ahead and say: absolutely no idea that picture is blurry as hell

I don't doubt that, I'm saying this more because there are additional routes that i had to configure in NPM to get lemmy working properly. This may be where OP is having issues, you can probably set them up in CF too but I have no idea.

Are you pointing cloudflare directly to Lemmy? I have mine going from cloudflare to Nginx Proxy Manager configured to serve Lemmy.

There is some additional configuration necessary for a reverse proxy in front of Lemmy, which is potentially where things are getting messed up for you?

Commercial groceries are expensive, a city owned distributer can negotiate prices with food suppliers and pass those savings along to citizens by selling food at or extremely near cost.

Also food deserts.

might easily become a nationwide avalanche

Anecdotally, I have fairly non-political coworkers in other states that are hyping up Mamdani. His reach across Gen Z is honestly insane and people are even making TikTok/Instagram hype edits of him all the time

[–] jivandabeast@lemmy.browntown.dev 78 points 1 month ago (6 children)

Mamdani is a NYC mayorial candidate who is a member of DSA, pro-palestine, has stated that he would have Netanyahu arrested if he came to NYC, and is running on a platform of:

  • Fast and free buses within NYC
  • Rent freeze every year for New Yorkers in rent stabilized housing
  • City owned and operated grocery stores
  • Creation of a Department of Community Safety to tackle mental health challenges rather than NYPD
  • UPK

Im glad you liked it!! Your point about Agnes is valid, I guess there's also the argument that she was swept away by the royal life and left everything (including her father) behind? It's been a while, so I'm fuzzy on some of the smaller details of the movie.

I think you're right about Alma but its also a fine line between her being a voice of reason and it being too overwhelming. I think it probably could have had more of her perspective on the abuse Elvira was going through.

I really like this movie though, it's been a few months since release and I still think its probably one of the better movies to have come out this year. But, I also think that these types of movies are the ones I enjoy the most: humanizing/contextualizing people situations that society has a preconceived notion towards. The only other example that I can think of is LVT's Nymphomaniac, but that's a tough one to recommend due to the extremely graphic content and the fact that its like six hours between both halves lol.

I hope this movie wins some awards, doesn't need to be picture of the year or anything but I think it's a standout amongst its competitors this year.

Definitely, and I'll never try and make the argument against that. However what they did was definitely a significant improvement on these pre-existing translation layers.

Linux gaming can be clearly defined as pre-proton and post-proton because it was such a huge improvement to the experience (one-click installs, large number of support in games, gaming via proton counting as a Linux sale in publisher metrics, etc)

And I'm speaking from personal experience, before proton I had a hard time getting pretty much every game I tried to play working on Linux (and tbf a large part of this is probably me fumbling the installation but I'm not an untechnical person either, so I'm sure this was the experience for many)

Go ahead and block me 💀 your post history shows you having this same argument and taking the same action every time.

You defend this point endlessly and the minute the conversation starts to pile up, you block the other person.

✌️ Enjoy the echo chamber you're creating for yourself

  1. Android is, at its core, an open source mobile operating system. What Google has done with it is monopolize all of the software for the platform. There are competitors (read: GrapheneOS, F-Droid) which are also based on the Android Operating System but outcompeted by Googles market position

  2. iOS shouldn't even be in this conversation, not open source & completely walled garden

  3. "Whataboutism seems to be an admission of truth these days" HUH? At what point did I engage in whataboutism, i simply pointed to other companies that have set standards for gaming accessibility in the market.

Valve:

  1. Has Steam, the largest videogame platform on PC. You claim it's a monopoly but it's not because it has direct competitors in Epic Games (Fortnite is not a small game), Riot Games (League and Valorant are not small games), Battle.net (WoW, Hearthstone, Overwatch are not small games), etc

  2. Developed the proton translation layer (which you yourself made this post for), and released it open source so anyone can use it. I myself leverage Proton for Linux gaming on a daily basis (I do NOT run SteamOS)

  3. Released SteamOS, which is a fork of Arch Linux, as a means of helping gamers break away from the real monopoly of Microsoft/Windows

  4. Is not creating a walled garden the likes of which we have seen in every xbox, playstation, and nintendo console. If Epic, Riot, Blizzard, etc wanted to release a launcher for Linux (and subsequently SteamOS) they could. They just choose not to, because they feel it doesn't make financial sense for them to do that.

The Ugly Stepsister (2025)

Follows Elvira as she battles against her gorgeous stepsister in a realm where beauty reigns supreme. She resorts to extreme measures to captivate the prince, amidst a ruthless competition for physical perfection.


Apologies if this is not the community for a thread like this, I don't frequent this community as much as I should (considering the volume of movies I watch lol). But I just saw The Ugly Stepsister in theaters and I'm dying to talk about it.

I'm curious if any of you have seen it yet. It's still in theaters and looks like it's going to be fairly niche, I'm sure in no small part due to it being foreign. I definitely recommend it, I found it to be a fun spin on the classic Cinderella story that we get from the likes of Disney and a lot more faithful to the source.

Definitely not for those who are squeamish, but to be honest I found the body horror to not be over the top (unlike The Terrifier 2 lol). The scenes that were there definitely further the story and help with characterization, showing the absolute abuse that Rebekka is willing to put her children through just for some money.

I really liked the juxtaposition between Agnes, with her "effortless beauty" and going after the Prince seemingly for spite, and Elvira, who we obviously see undergo massive treatment to ascertain "beauty" and wanting the Prince her whole life.

Curious to hear anyone else's thoughts on it. I found it reminiscent of The Substance, both for the body horror and themes centering on physical beauty, as well as a LVT film with the dark and depressing feeling that it left me with 🤣

As requested by /u/funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works, this is a walkthrough of how I set up NGINX Proxy Manager with a custom domain to give me the simplicity of DNS access to my services with the security of Tailscale to restrict public access. This works great for things that you want easy remote access to, but don't want to have open to the internet in general (unRAID GUI, Portainer, Immich, Proxmox, etc.)

Prerequesites

  1. A custom domain (obviously, because that's the whole point of this tutorial)
  2. A Tailscale account with your devices linked to it

Steps

  1. On the server that you want to serve as the entry point into your network, install the NGINX Proxy Manager Docker container (you could absolutely use a different installation method, but I prefer Docker so that's how this guide will be written)

    I. For this, I have a Raspberry Pi that is dedicated to being my network entry. This method is probably overkill for most, but for me it works wonders because I have multiple different devices working as servers and if one goes down I can still access the services hosted on the others.

    II. I'm not going to go super in detail here, because there is plenty of documentation elsewhere but you install it the same way you would install any Docker container and follow the first time setup

  2. Log into your Tailscale account and get the Tailscale IP for the entry device (ex. 100.113.123.123)

  3. Get the SSL information from NGINX Proxy Manager for your domain

    I. Navigate to "SSL Certificates" and then "Add SSL Certificate"

    II. Select "Let's Encrypt"

    III. Type in your domain/subdomain name in the first box

    IV. Enter your email address for Let's Encrypt

    V. Select "Use a DNS Challenge"

    VI. Select your DNS provider in the dropdown

    VII. From here, you're all set for now. We will continue with this later

  4. In your domain DNS dashboard, you will need to do a few things (I use Cloudflare, but the process should be more or less the same with whatever provider you use):

    I. Set up an A record that redirects the root of your domain (or a subdomain, depending on your configuration) to your Tailscale IP from step 2

    II. Set up a wildcard redirect that points back to your domain root. This is important because it will redirect subdomain requests (i.e. service.example.org to your root example.org which then points to the Tailscale IP)

    III. (This is going to be dependent on your provider) Generate an API key for NGINX to use for domain verification, this can easily be achieved in the Cloudflare dashboard in the API key section. The key needs to have permissions for Zone.DNS

  5. Back in NGINX Proxy Manager, drop in your API key in the text box where it asks for it (you need to replace the sample key).

  6. The hard part is done, now it's just time to add in your services!

Here's an example of proxying Portainer through NGINX Proxy Manager:

  1. Might be obvious, but open up NGINX Proxy Manager

  2. Navigate to Hosts -> Proxy Hosts

  3. Click "Add Proxy Host"

  4. Type in the URL that you want to use for navigating to the host, I prefer subdomains (i.e. portainer.example.org)

  5. Type in the IP address and port for the service

    I. Here's the neat part: because NGINX is running in Tailscale, you can connect to both other services in your tailnet or other devices running in your network that don't necessarily have Tailscale running on them.

    II. An example of this, would be if you have two houses (yours and your friends), where you have services deployed at both locations. You can have NGINX reach out through Tailscale to the other device and proxy the service through your main network without needing to set it up twice. Neat, right?

    III. Conversely, if you have a server running in your network that you cannot install Tailscale onto (for support reasons, security reasons, whatever), you can just use the internal IP for that device, as long as the device NGINX Proxy Manager is running on can access it.

  6. Navigate to the SSL tab of the window, and select your recently generated Let's Encrypt certificate

  7. And you're done

Now, you can connect your phone or laptop to Tailscale, and navigate to the URL that you configured. You should see your service load up, with SSL, and you can access it normally. No more remembering IP addresses and port numbers! I don't personally meet this usecase, but this solution could also be useful for people running their homelab behind CGNAT where they can't open ports easily -- this would allow them to access any service remotely via Tailscale easily.

EDIT: The picture formatting is weird and I'm not really sure how else to do it. Let me know if there's a better way :)

 
 

Its a gift link, so shouldn't be a paywall :)

As the title states, I have an issue where all images stored in pictrs are returning a 404 when trying to view them. You can see an example of this here https://lemmy.browntown.dev/post/27130.

If i check the pictrs docker volume, I can find the image manually and if I curl pictrs_ip:8080/image/original/[image.ext] i can view it in the browser. So I know for a fact that Lemmy is communicating with pictrs to upload the image, but there's something funky going on with viewing.

Hopefully someone here has an idea of where to go with this, I'm at my wits end lol. I've tried:

  • Creating a different pictrs container and using that
  • Pointing to an external ip for pictrs (i.e. 192.168.x.xxx instead of pictrs:8080)

Not sure what to do outside of this?

EDIT: Turns out the solution was to disable "cache assets" in nginx proxy manager! Not sure why that helped, but once I did that everything started working as expected.

 

As thr title states, has the community found a new home yet? Want get back to monitoring for those grail trackers!

 

I stood up my own instance, and it's federating (kind of?) but none of the posts are showing up with their comments. If I look on the main instance I can see the comments but not on mine.

This also applies to sticky posts not being stickied when i view from my own instance. Is this a bug, a misconfiguration on my end, or a result of servers being overloaded?
