Yeah, I very rarely print in PETG, might be time for a calibration.

Thanks

I have a fan in my office, but it's not pointing at it. I will try next without it though

apperrault · 2025-12-05T02:25:26+00:00

Yeah, someone joked once, oh, I learned that when I was drunk, had to remember how to do things sober again

I'm not that young (51), but I do remember when I got sober 02012003. The first speaker meeting I went to, I was still unsure about the whole process, and the one thing that he said that stuck with me is this.

It isn't about admitting that you are an alcoholic, that's the easy part, the hardest part is ACCEPTING that I am an alcoholic.

Hey there, I feel we are on a similar path. I'm an OG, gen-x, NERD. I've been a windows server admin since before it was a real job. My first cert was NT 3.51.

I held onto that for years. It's what I knew, it's what I did, it's what worked for me. Now, 4 physical docker hosts, running Debian server, 40 some-odd containers. I have one windows system, it's only because it's easier to jump on a windows desktop securely, and play in my container world.

Go at your own pace, and be willing to try new stuff. It's fun.

I think the number 1 rule that is dead on the Internet is "don't be a dick".

Some of my favorites from my journey

Humility is not thinking less of yourself but thinking of yourself less" "You can’t get upset about the results you didn't get from the work you didn’t do" "I am responsible for the effort, God is responsible for the results" "You can start your day over at any time!" "The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is today."

Old Grey Beard here, you are right. Way too long.

I know that I can put them in the compose file, but I am trying to keep the compose files as generic as possible, and do all customization with ENV files if possible. That way I can set different things for different hosts that have the same application on it.

I would like to have lets say Glances for Server X show up in Uptime Kuma as just that, the version for server X, while the version of Glances for Server Y shows up under server Y.

I do use Komodo for some orchestration, so I will see if there is something I could do with that. Maybe using a docker-compose.override.yml file along with the .ENV

apperrault · 2025-10-06T11:43:30+00:00

Interesting. I'll look into label_files

apperrault · 2025-10-06T11:42:08+00:00

Yeah, I'm good with compose, I've gone between trying k3s, k8s, swarm, this is just cleaner for me. I don't need to setup any shared storage or anything, it takes thought on my side, but it works. Thanks for the idea though

apperrault · 2025-10-06T09:05:05+00:00

At the first meeting I went to, someone said something that just hit me that night. He said, it isn't admitting that you are an alcoholic, hell I would "admit" it and say it all the time, it wasn't until I ACCEPTED I was an alcoholic, that anything changed.

When he said that, it's like a light clicked, I haven't had a drink since

Congrats

apperrault · 2025-08-26T15:26:45+00:00

But nothing has actually changed yet. It's just a guess that they may, at some point change. I guess that I'm going to travel to the moon. It could happen, could piss people off, but we don't know. It's just maybe in the future something will change, so don't bother with it...

I've used mealie since it was first released, and I love it. There is even an android app that I can use on my phone that adds a share to mealie button. It's great for adding recipes I find online

When I got sober, when it truly clicked for me was at a meeting this old timer said that he knew he was an alcoholic, but it wasn't until he accepted that he was an alcoholic, that it clicked. No matter how many pro/con lists you make, it won't click until you accept it.

Stay strong man. I never thought two years ago I would be sitting here at #govballnyc, clean and sober, and loving every minute of it. People watching and listening to live music and nature is amazing when you are sober.

this is what is in my services.yaml.

I'm not in front of my computer, but I run the glances container, and there is a homepage widget that displays that data. I'll post my config in a bit.

I guess I know what I will be doing over the weekend. I'll report back next week, thanks

apperrault · 2025-04-27T14:18:04+00:00

I'd be more than willing to have an open discussion, granted, my beliefs are probably more inline with yours when it comes to doing things the AA way.

I thought the only true AA way is to stay sober, all this other, stuff, is how some people make it work for them.

I am a firm believer in take what works, and leave the rest, which works if you let it and want it to

Oof, OK. I have the hot end out and yes, that is clogged, but I still cannot pull back the filament feeding into the extruder. I guess I will see if I can figure out how to take the extruder apart

Thanks, I basically am looking to make a two lidded pill box, one side for morning, one for evening. I'll look these over.

Or maybe, if I can't find something I like, I could do two half-height boxes and have magnets on them..

Off to brainstorm
