The point is your gained wisdom through experience. That's what the old people always tried to tell us.

Are you going to solve any of those problems? No. Are you going to be able to join some organization or movement that solves them? Probably no. Will you be able to affect any change that the world will take notice of? Probably not.

But that doesn't mean you shouldn't be a part of it. Not everything that has value makes meaningful changes on the world. There was a French artist, Marcel Duchamps, who once exhibited a urinal. This was clearly not an attempt to move art in any direction, or change public perception, he was kinda just being an asshole. But it had that effect anyway. People still get pissy about it, in the form of, "Is it art?" conversations. Is it? Doesn't matter. It was a low effort one-off idea that has lasted for decades.

Life isn't actually a race to see how much you can achieve. And if it was that, then it wouldn't be measured by money. It wouldn't be measured by "legacy," the way we use that word for rich people and sports stars. If it really was a contest, then it would be based on how much good you can manage in the face of constant depressive onslaught.

The world has never seemed like it has a point to most people. But they try their best, and they make meaningful impact on the lives of others, often without intention or even knowledge of having done so .

One of my most influential people has no idea that he did anything. He's around somewhere, although I haven't seen him for 20 years. All he did was treat me like a person when I was a dumb teenager (not to say all teenagers are dumb, but I was). It really wasn't much. But I hadn't been treated that way before, so to me it's influential because it was something he did that he didn't have to do.

That guy is not going to be lying on his deathbed thinking, "At least I was a good influence on scared of planes." For all I know, he doesn't remember me. Doesn't matter. He spread some good into the world. That's your job. That's your point.

Just be a better you tomorrow than you are today, as many days as you can manage. Know that no one does that every day. And you'll live a meaningful life that maybe has influence. Your legacy is you.

No, mark it as spam. There are probably 800 addresses in the BCC if that lame phishing attempt. I see hundreds of these in quarantine for the email server I run. They're all the same. No one did anything except find your email address, maybe, and send you this garbage.

A lot of people don't get that. You're right.

Agreed. But I have been enjoying trying out some different Lemmy apps. Liftoff is pretty good! But there's nothing yet that sway me from Sync.

If an article is a list, it's garbage. If the headline of the listicle starts with a number, it should be banned from the Internet.

• Goblin squats
• Pistol squats
• Lunges
• Reverse lunges, or that kind where you elevate the back foot.
• Flies, all kinds
• Dips
• Suitcase carries
• Farmer's carries
• That one where you hold a dumbbell and bend over while extending a leg straight behind you and then come up and bring the leg in at the same time.

It would be LARGE PRINT and it would work by me being able to read it without a magnifying glass.

I have a server stood up for a couple years, and I keep it updated. But I'm still day to day on Plex for waf and for downloads, which have always worked for me. I try to keep up with jellyfin but I think I'm behind on development. For those of you who are daily drivers, how's it going?

Jeep key fobs are a war crime in pockets. If you're lazy, get a suspension clip. It's a little clip that hooks onto the fob and the lip of your pocket. It's better than having that massive Rick sitting in the bottom of your pocket.

If you're motivated, Google jeep key fob mods. There are lots of easy and difficult ways to improve on what can only be described as asshole design.

Have you read any? I haven't, but I love adding these lists to my lists and then not remembering anything about them later on.

I'm about two thirds of the way through Since We Fell by Dennis Lehane. And I finished The Stupidest Angel by Christopher Moore today.

I don't think Lehane ever really misses. His plots aren't usually all that dense but the characters are deep and compelling. And the writing is way better than it seems like it should be. Every once in a while you I read a line and think, "Where did that come from, and how did it get here?" He's a really talented writer.

Moore is not that. But he's fun and entertaining. This book was not his best effort. But it was fine. If you like Moore, you'll like this one we'll enough.

I just finished The Unbearable Lightness of Being by Milan Kundera a couple days ago. I think it'll take me a bit before I have a fully formed opinion of it. I can say that the writing is excellent. Most of the characters are unlikeable, but all have redeeming qualities. Right now I don't feel like it was a satisfying read, but I can already tell it's going to stick with me for a while.

Thanks! I had no idea that was out there. The only mod I've done on my Q5 is to greatly exceed the weight rating of the roof rack but I've used Auto on some other cars and I really like it.

Your car looks great!

Agreed, but I like how frequently they find a way to communicate despite it.

Essentially it IS a tunnel, just with cloudflare's infrastructure in the middle handling auth and obscuring each end from the other.

Auth is handled by cloudflare. That doesn't mean cloudflare necessarily is the auth provider, though. Not likely in selfhosted, but one could set up some other auth provider, like azure, and cloudflare could give tunnel access to authorized users who actually provided credentials via azure.

The service, port, whatever being accessed via the tunnel may also require auth, and cloudflare generally doesn't handle that. For example, your cloudflare tunnel to your local sonarr instance requires auth at cloudflare first, to access the tunnel, then again at sonarr because your sonarr instance requires authentication.

In a docker environment, you would either tunnel to the docker host or to individual Dockers. The latter is more sensible and generally a bit more secure, if only because least access = better. There's probably some cloudflare tunnels docker out there that does half the setup for you, then you just stick it and the Dockers you want exposed through the tunnel all on the same docker network interface (which you create), but that's just speculation.

As far as setting tunnels up goes, the docs are really good at the step by step. Easiest way to learn it is to set up a VM similar to what you want and bang away at the steps until it does what you want. Some things are easy, like RDP. Other things are trickier.

The basics of setup are that you use the cloudflared application at both ends: one server-side to expose what you want and one client-side to access the tunnel via cloudflare.

Tailscale is the same kinda thing. I think it is way easier for a lot of people. There's a lot less setup involved. Just install the apps and make a few choices.

For personal use, I use wireguard to access my home server. Professionally I use cloudflare tunnels for a couple of things, but mostly an enterprise vpn.

I might know that guy. He curled up on the couch all sweet-like and then reprogrammed my universal remote.

Wait, you added Android Auto? It works with MMI?

Same, with the hd and hurricane add ons.

Perfect deal. Leaves an absolutely tiny amount of cap space after ltir. We weren't going to accrue more cap no matter what. And the term is perfect. Briesbois has made it clear that if you perform you can have a long deal, otherwise you have time to prove that you can. Also, fuck picks. Picks are stupid
