It's even better when the English word is so riddled with vowel syllabics that Japanese phonemes require that it wraps all the way around and becomes unrecognizable...even when it's "English." My fav: Makkudonarudo - マックドナルド even tho most people just call it "Maku-do" for McDonalds.

Also, gotta watch out... just when you think "Pants" is just "Pantsu" you actually just said "underwear" in Japanese.

wow. Surprisingly awesome answer. Biff's Casino IS America right now

Tomorrow I might as well see a manifestation of Q and watch a bewildered Picard shout "You can't judge all of humanity by this barbaric time!"

Dems prove once again that they have NO IDEA how to represent the people who voted for them... or even just like, make themselves even slightly likable.

I also did not love it. The premise is fascinating and is relatively unique as far as 'first contact' stories go. At the end of the day, though, the first book is much more about Chinese history than aliens, and the 'science' part of the science fiction is so garbage that I had a hard time getting through it. I recommend "Blindsight" by Peter Watts if you're looking for a really cool first-contact story.

So, it sounds like you're staying if I want all my services (jellyfin, nextcloud, etc) behind ONE reverse proxy/https then the easier method is to install Caddy as docker and use the containername:containerport method?... did I understand correctly? Thanks

Ban advertising.

No, seriously, think about it. Imagine a word where narrow, strictly defined thing called "advertisement" is illegal. I mean, obviously, we're in magic fairy wonderland here, but y'know... I live in a state where billboards are illegal. Nothing's truly impossible... just 'unthinkable' mostly. Without ads, the incentive to make the platform addictive evaporates, suddenly companies are competing just to, y'know, make a better platform.

I'm jealous of your optimism.... and in the end of Caliban's war right now! I loved the series. I can only hope...

A coworker showed me a quote from this guy, Steve Magness (https://www.stevemagness.com/) that sums it up really well - When we're constantly 'killing time' on our phones/screens in every waking moment that our attention isn't otherwise required, we suck up the space that was once reserved for creativity and fill it with garbage instead. We fragment our attention and rarely get lost in our thoughts or follow up on cool ideas. Creativity is dying first before it's born because we don't just sit and engage with our own ideas like we did once...we just scroll.

The second factor is the giant, impossibly sophisticated psychological rat's maze the internet has become for content... we are fed much more than we truly discover, and every day 100k tons more AI shit is shoveled over real, genuine ideas... and it's that bullshit the algorithm will serve you. You have a lot less agency and exposure online than you THINK you do... and that is by design. If you have been on the internet for more than 10 years, then you remember when that was very much not the case and feel the difference.

Hang out with local, creative people in person, ask them what they're into. Stare out a window and think thoughts, shut your phone off and read books. The good news is that there is SO MUCH good shit in the world already that the decline of our civilization and its creative output isn't so bad, if you just get some distance from it.

I see the welcome page in the image above

Do you mind explaining PiHole to me? I've heard it mentioned, not sure what it is.

ooh I broke it as I was trying things and this was solid gold... thank you stranger!

bump! Links etc would be great OP!

Hey thanks for addressing that. So yes, I have my local ip as a subnet... you're saying that means i don't necessarily need the tailnet IPv4 as my pointer?

umm, no. This is just the way I write. I get what you mean, reading over it. It's something about tone. Sadly, here we are where any generically "cheery" writing style seems suspect.

My caddyfile is just

sub.mydomain.com {

reverse_proxy my.server.ip.address:8097

}

lol ... obviously I annonymized it for this copypaste, but you get the idea.... I am probably missing some things.

He has a WIFE you know.... Intercontinentia... Intercontinentia BUTTOCKS.

Thanks very much, this is really helpful... one thing I note is that I don't know what "api.example.com" is ... is that necessary to make this work or is it just an option? I haven't mucked with API of Caddy at all...do I need to?

busted!

I've tried this caddyfile version and one above, for both, I get "Problem loading page. Secure connection failed. Internal error." Oddly, I get the 'welcome to caddy' page directly at my IP but at my sub domain I get the error.
