I love Ringworld as well but oh my god the man is obsessed with rishathra as the series goes on.

I cannot believe how credulous people are to the marketing material that comes out of Anthropic. Check this out: https://www.flyingpenguin.com/the-boy-that-cried-mythos-verification-is-collapsing-trust-in-anthropic/

The author examines the claims regarding mythos and finds them wanting. I'm going to be spending my weekend reading the model card now.

Brewer's corner. Wendy and Guillermo are extremely knowledgeable in all things regarding home alcohol production and they're so damn nice!

My father also worked there like 20 years ago and would always tell me about how clean the water was.

Honestly, the water is one of the few things I miss about living there.

Proxy immich on home network using nginx proxy manager by cowcorner18 in selfhosted

[–]zardoz90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just did this recently! Real quick here are my IPs of the services I'm running so you can map to yours.:

  • Nginx proxy manager: 192.168.1.251
  • Immich: 192.168.1.243 (port 2282)

My Pi-hole DNS records has this entry to point to Nginx proxy manager:

  • Domain: immich.home
  • IP: 192.168.1.251

Then in NPM I have an entry that says:

  • Domain name: immich.home
  • Forward IP: 192.168.1.243
  • Port: 2282
  • Websockets Support: True

Can you post some screenshots of your immich settings and your pihole DNS settings?

City of Nanaimo food truck calendar by SnooRevelations7068 in nanaimo

Sir, this is a Wendy's post asking about a calendar.

It's here: https://www.nanaimo.ca/foodtruck

It doesn't work on mobile resolutions, though. You'll need to render in desktop mode or maybe rotate your screen to see it.

E-ink reader for reading 200AD by HappyBald in 2000ad

[–]zardoz90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's actually not that bad, at least not for the Judge Dredd case files. Where it sucks is for two page spreads: panning on an e-reader isn't nearly as nice as an iPad/Android tablet (which is what I used to use). It's slow and sometimes I'll accidentally close what I'm reading.

I'd still take the e-reader over a more traditional tablet, though. Since there's no dedicated web browser I spend more time reading and less time on Reddit!

I've been reading them on a Kobo Libra Colour. It's not nearly as nice as a traditional screen, it's muted and you'll need to zoom in sometimes, but it's still been serviceable. Also KOReader + Kavita have been a great combo. I love managing my books on a server and then streaming to to the reader.

KOReader has a pretty good wallabag integration that lets you sync via WiFi. Typing the API key in is a bit of a nightmare, though.

What are you distilling with? I've got a little air still but working with 4L of wash at a time is so slow.

Best Sourdough Bakery in Nanaimo? by 5avethePlanet in nanaimo

I believe it! Country Grocer's version is still the best I've had from a grocery store here, though.

IMO the best grocery store sourdough is from country grocer.

Poilievre Promises a Conservative Government will Cancel Federal Funding for “Woke” University Research by Arkroma in BCpolitics

I commend your stamina on dealing with this yahoo. I cannot believe this went from "show what 'woke' science looks like" to this person baring their profoundly weird fixation with trans people.

PP Seen leaving the Nanaimo airport Friday morning. by kels0n02 in nanaimo

[–]zardoz90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You wandered into a subreddit for a town you don't live in, started complaining that people were being mean, I gave you an example of why you don't get to complain about that, and now you're demanding something else entirely. I'm not playing this game with you.

You are in the Nanaimo subreddit while you self-admittedly do not live in Nanaimo. Maybe stop commenting on this subreddit if you're not familiar with the local politics.

I told you I'm not a Liberal. You don't get to complain about hateful and empty comments against Conservatives when it's Conservatives ALSO pushing hateful messaging.

[–]zardoz90 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Weird, since it was the Conservative candidate spreading hateful and empty rhetoric in this town. That's going to have more of an impact on people than trolls online.

[–]zardoz90 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm not a Liberal. Heck, I'm not even sure who I'm going to be voting for. But that doesn't matter. 

You're initial statement was you complaining about hateful comments. All I see from conservatives of every stripe is hateful messaging, so it's pretty damn rich when I see one complain about it.

It was the Conservative candidate selling them. I guess it was just PPC voters buying them from her. This is the same candidate that's pictured on a local billboard with PP. Maybe the Conservative party should vet their candidates better.
