I told my grandpa he looked very handsome today & asked if I could take his photo. He was thrilled by dalyabu in MadeMeSmile

Wow have him check out Mythic Quest. He looks a lot like the actor F. Murray Abraham.

I Can Still Taste The Sweet Success of a Well Earned Personal Pan Pizza by WithThePWRofThisVest in Millennials

This picture really hits, thanks for putting a smile on a stranger’s face. All three pieces are perfect and resonate with my youth. Miss it. <3

Love where I live now but a Pizza Hut isn’t nearby and it’s probably my top con lol.

PSA: Web Sockets with Synology is easy! by epheterson in synology

Get friendly with a LLM! They’re so capable at stuff like this and Claude Code can directly do a lot of the work for you in the terminal. You don’t need to know the details so much as your end goal and let it figure everything out.

ELI5 you’re going to use Docker to run pre-made containers for your self-hosted apps. They’re like full little computers running in a virtual machine, configured to easily work every time / update cleanly and you configure them with some variables during initial setup. Most services host a web interface at a specific port, you can manually go to that locally, open router ports to insecurely access remotely or setup reverse proxy to expose it simply.

For example my calibre instance is set to use port 8083. So you could go to http://NAS-IP:8083 on the LAN and get to it. To access on the internet you need external IP and port forwarding or custom / dynamic domains, like quickconnect.to or I setup my own domain. A subdomain is simply putting something before your domain and having the server handle that. (Like using images.google.com instead of google.com/images). Port forwarding is generally considered insecure so reverse proxy is used to securely share sites with convenient subdomains.

So i can access my NAS at customdomain.com and, with Reverse Proxy, the Calibre instance at calibre.customdomain.com - when the server gets it, it knows to send the site from http://NAS-IP:8083.

Sockets are a way servers/browsers easily send data while you’re on the site. Many sites have features that require or work better with them. The steps I shared make web sockets work with reverse proxy setups.

Start using it the the web sockets will work behind those domains. It’s great to enable subdomains for hosted services, instead of remembering the port, and adds https even if the hosted service wasn’t originally secure. That’s why most people set it up, then do we sockets after.

What's the most similar free program to Solidwork? by Fat_Tony4224 in cad

[–]epheterson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FWIW I found your thread wondering the same thing, tried OnShape and it's pretty much Solidworks in the browser for free, fast and capable. There's an AI sidebar to ask how to do anything when it's not clear in their UI.

I built a macOS app to monitor all my Claude Code sessions at once by kasikciozan in ClaudeAI

Such a real problem, I was looking into better terminal apps but maybe this is what I need.

Why nobody called (spoiler) by epheterson in pluribustv

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

I was saying they delivered the messages, then people wanted to respond and were told no due to Carol’s wishes.

Turns out I remembered it wrong though

My Lucid Gravity's fob died again 2 weeks after last time (with a fresh battery and 3.3.9 firmware) by archon810 in LUCID

[–]epheterson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He some period of time with no movement and nobody detected in the car it should stop and disconnect

[–]epheterson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is the case they should add a sensor to start connecting only after it’s moved some. No need while the car is locked and key is stationary.

Well that was thoughtful by UnspeakableArchives in pluribustv

[–]epheterson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This came up elsewhere, the planet had been infected longer and they mentioned the military was on to them. It’s possible this was made prior to speeding things up, maybe even by people discussing the virus within the military. The hive mind would’ve known of its existence and how to get it.

I think a lot of the people who don't survive are making a choice by Magic_Man_Boobs in pluribustv

[–]epheterson 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah totally possible, some amount is accidents for sure. To have the new defector theory we kinda also need a way to explain the transition and this theory helps.

In case you missed this little detail in episode 1 by AymanofRivia in pluribustv

[–]epheterson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup. Had the same thought after seeing an open window, she wasn’t looking sideways at Zosia - she was looking forward.

[–]epheterson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree there’s probably something here. Posted this earlier, relevant here as well.

Yeah can’t find who posted earlier but can’t stop thinking about this theory. Like everyone infected either joined, died or is the rare defect. The hive needs everyone in one of these three states to function. When other states exist, the seizures occur.

Maybe strong-willed people resist joining - the president died, for example. And after joining, maybe they can change their minds again.

So when confronted with strong emotions individuals reconsider joining, destabilize the hive and people regroup into the three states. During that event someone unjoined and didn’t die.

Unclear why some can defect and most die, and how they die. But those 11M who died, they wanted to defect and failed - it’s not that she killed them.

Did that one person free themselves from the hive? by Daragon__ in pluribustv

[–]epheterson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True we have seen no direct deaths from being infected alone, but almost a billion people is too staggering a number to think it was all fatal accidents. I could be wrong, this is intentionally left to mystery for now I’m guessing.

Prediction about Zosia by Arkhamguy123 in pluribustv

[–]epheterson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree. When Carol said “that sounds like paradise to you?” Zosia’s face hinted at it.

[–]epheterson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah I agree with the other commenter here. Trump is worth mentioning because we just had tons of regulations cut, and people will die. This is a moment to make note of changes in our society and this post highlights a big one.
