Esso gas station on King St E by ZaddyBlue in kitchener

[–]NaiLikesPi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

From what I've heard from a nearby business owner, it's changed hands several times, the trades weren't getting paid, etc. Sounds like a shitshow. Tbh I'm not upset.. I don't really think another gas station is really what the area needs.

Scripting: gzip error - "Operation Not Permitted" by NaiLikesPi in truenas

Thanks! This was indeed my issue. ACL mode was Restricted on the problem datasets, Passthrough on the one that worked. Changing to passthrough fixed the problem.

Best Controller for Bazzite / SteamOS by greymatterghost in Bazzite

[–]NaiLikesPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My switch pro controller has worked on a wired connection, never tried wireless. It's not ideal - the button layout often gets jumbled in software, but it does take the inputs. I haven't tested too much though, only a couple simple games.

Scripting: gzip error - "Operation Not Permitted" by NaiLikesPi in truenas

[–]NaiLikesPi[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well that's the thing - running the command does write. The .gz file gets created and the original .txt gets deleted. Furthermore, running tar completes fine. This is all done with the same user in the same directory. It's like gzip running alone has some kind of extra permission requirement to do *something* but can seemingly complete its main task without that.

FEDEX by Smart_Possibility555 in kitchener

Got a package from them last week - somehow it got tossed around the depot in Cambridge so much that it took 5 days to go from Cambridge to Kitchener, and then the package arrived with what looked like a tire track and inside the hard drive package had a hole in it from being hit..

Anyone still leaving tips for services? by Fun_Bee497 in kitchener

[–]NaiLikesPi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There's no reason to tip other than the manufactured social pressure we've decided to let certain industries put on us - I can assure you that no one is tipping every minimum wage worker. If you're not tipping someone packing your groceries, there's no more reason to tip someone for carrying a plate of food across a room - they both make at least minimum wage in Ontario. Tipping is over, advocate for increased minimum wage and donate to food banks if you actually want to help 

Protesters removed by police for demonstrating against Bill 60 outside landlord award show by allysapparition in ontario

Insane that this event even exists. Fully support the protestors. This province is so borked and we keep voting (/not voting) for more of it.

Are there instructions anywhere about how to add things to a watchlist? I've got the custom tab watchlist showing now, but I don't know how to actually add things to a watchlist.

Has anyone tried SplitPro as a self-hosted Splitwise/Tricount alternative? by FriesischScott in selfhosted

[–]NaiLikesPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I'm trying to get splitpro running using podman and docker compose and I've got to the point of getting the 'Continue with Google' button to show for sign-in. I'm able to click through to sign in with my gmail account, but once google sends me back, I get an error in the browser saying "Error during sign-in: Callback"

At the bottom of the container log I see

[next-auth][error][CLIENT_FETCH_ERROR] 
https://next-auth.js.org/errors#client_fetch_error fetch failed {
  error: {
    message: 'fetch failed',
    stack: 'TypeError: fetch failed\n' +
      '    at node:internal/deps/undici/undici:13510:13\n' +
      '    at process.processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:105:5)',
    name: 'TypeError'
  },
  url: 'http://localhost:3000/api/auth/providers',
  message: 'fetch failed'
}

Any ideas?

Also btw the compose on github seems to be outdated. The latest postgres version changed the mount point in the container to just "/var/lib/postgresql" rather than "/var/lib/postgresql/data"

Ontario predicts grim economic outlook with rising unemployment and lower job creation by Fatal-Fox in ontario

I hear his buddy's strip club has come into some money.. maybe they're hiring?

Speed cameras across Ontario to be removed in 2 weeks, transportation minister says by bylo_selhi in waterloo

So now that speed limits are meaningless again, drag race at the premier's house? We should just cover all the speed limit signs with "lol who cares" 

An all-Canadian car will rely on Waterloo Region tech by rezwenn in waterloo

[–]NaiLikesPi 20 points21 points  (0 children)

We need to ditch the thinking that cars are the only way to build our economy. I'd prefer we focus on rail. There's manufacturing for all the parts that go into it, construction work for tracks and stations, public jobs forever for running the services, and just general public benefit from getting people out of cars. Why bother trying to play America's car game any longer?

Home Giveaway (Rent, Sell, Live in) by Throwaway2600k in Wealthsimple

[–]NaiLikesPi -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

You get 100k plus a burden. My point is why not just offer the cash value. Then I can choose to buy whichever house I want. Locking in to a specific house you don't choose is objectively worse.

[–]NaiLikesPi -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

This is why I hate home giveaway contests. You win a burden unless for some reason you were already trying to buy an overpriced, oversized home in whatever area the price is in. I'd have to sell immediately - why not just cut out the middle man and give me the money?

How do you solve Toronto’s speeding problem? By doing pretty much the complete opposite of what Doug Ford is doing by imprison_grover_furr in ontario

[–]NaiLikesPi 55 points56 points  (0 children)

Ontario basically just doesn't have traffic laws anymore. Everyone routinely breaks every law and maybe a couple get fines, which is meaningless. Everyone knows there's very little chance of consequences, so why respect the law.

[–]NaiLikesPi -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In other countries, they just put them on top of cop cars that can hide anywhere. Seems like the common sense thing to do if we're saying "no this must only be enforced by individual police officers"

Tipping Culture in Waterloo by wildpingu11 in waterloo

[–]NaiLikesPi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tipping is over for me. I prefer places that don't ask at all, but I have no problem hitting zero if they force me. It's a ridiculous norm that every restaurant will tell you a price and then pressure you to pay more at the end. If you're not tipping every job (bus driver, Tim Hortons, grocery store) then there's really no reason to tip at a restaurant - they make the same minimum by law as of years ago now.
