I think avoiding containers is the way I’m going to go on my next attempt. I’ll still have to put it in an lxc or a VM on my proxmox, but all in one will hopefully reduce some problems. The sonarr/radarr split was what I was referring to with the above or below an hour comment.

Excuse me, am I in the right place? I’m looking for somewhere to rant about toasters that beep, and toasters with a motorised lift system.

I hate how fragmented they are. I’ve given up on various guides out there for ‘setting up the arr stack’ because of getting bogged down in since miniature detail that, IMHO, shouldn’t even be a thing. I get that hosting seperate services has advantages. But the disadvantage of giving up on the whole thing because you have to sort out networking and file permission issues between the service that downloads video files over an hour long and the service that downloads video files under an hour outweighs those advantages.

I gave up on thinking about it (at least, DC) as flow, and started thinking about it as pressure. It’s a small mental flip that made a bunch of things easier. I’ve also heard people talk about it as the movement of holes where electrons are not.

I feel you, friend. Similar situation here, possibly reversed. If I’m grumpy, or mad, or just having a rough day, I have to be exceptionally careful in bringing that to my partner. They deal with a lot, so when I add anything to that pile, it often explodes. So the pattern is me saying ‘Here’s something I am upset about. Please can I have five minutes of your time to listen to me.’, then two days of me comforting my partner because they somehow contributed to this and they hate themselves for it.

God damnit, three replies in this thread, and one of them is someone who beat me to the one I was going to say! Well played.

My second favourite, then-

Do you know the heading cause of dry skin?

If you’re looking for a job, trying to get into the daily grind, then getting a job should be your daily grind. If you are looking to get an 8hr a day job, 8 hours of your day should be spent tweaking your resume for the next application, hunting for jobs, doing short courses, etc.

She did.

And when Trump visited, on the first day she wore a brooch gifted to her by the Obamas, on the second one given to her by a Canadian, on the third the brooch that she hadn’t worn since her father’s funeral.

I’m not a fan of the monarchy, but in her own way she was badass.

You forgot the bit where they hold up a second mirror and you nod awkwardly, mumbling something that’s not quite ‘yep, that’s the back of my head, yep, I agree, you have cut my hair, thank you for showing me the proof’

Thingiverse is great, but the real benefit of a 3d printer for me is the super-custom stuff. The gap between my kitchen sink and wall is pretty small, so I designed and printed a sponge caddy that sits in there perfectly, and drains into the sink. My sunnies didn’t fit into the holder in my car, so I designed and printed a little clip with a holder on it that fits in really nicely.

You could also just shoo them outside. I’d prefer to not have fly guts all over my hands, and I don’t really have the need to kill every fly I see.

You know why the chainsaw was invented, right?

I love me some skiing and snowboarding and what not. But I’m so glad I live somewhere where I don’t have to clear the driveway.

I’ve heard it explained with the joystick controlling the head of the character.

Imagine a joystick sticking out of the back of their head. That’s your controller joystick.

Oi fark orf ya caaant, no ones farking getting off on dis shit ay.

I work in an environment that can have some tight timeline, high stress moments. People often deal with this with a kind of controlled panic- “Hi. This thing is not working.” “Fuck, this is not working, quick, try that thing! Argh! Not working either! Oh no, shits fucked. Shit… Ok, try the other thing! Fuck, call Gary, they might know what to do!”

Then I worked with a person who had this totally different approach. When shit hit the fan, they just super calmly looked around, and said “That’s a bit boring.” Just that phrase shifted my whole perspective on the industry. Just treat the problem as a minor annoyance, and you’ll see that it’s rarely worth getting panicked about.

The other thing they taught me- no matter how urgent it is, never run. Running makes it look like we fucked up. And we don’t fuck up, we just have the next thing that needs to be fixed.

It’s so good that it’s even in Coca Cola!

Since COVID, the use of that word has got unprecedented levels.
