For driving, Waze easily beats Gmaps.

For travel details, Gmaps wins.

You might want to check out YNAB? It’s not quicken, it’s budgeting. It has a lot of banking connections.

I’m in Norway and can’t find it in the Play Store. The links from their website seem dead or wrong.

There is a vpn app with the same name, but it has typos and looks suspect.

I remember upgrading my Macintosh computer from 512kB to A FULL MEGABYTE! Wow, what a difference, suddenly I could run two programs at once - even three small ones.

Ah, the eighties… Those were the days.

And the cost of leaving is significant. Not so much reddit content, but when I ditched Facebook many MANY years ago, I lost practically my entire social circle. Now that I still refuse to use Whatsapp (near exclusive messaging in this country) I lost the rest, and almost my spouse too.

Where in history is the reference point of modern week day countdown? [SOLVED]

I mean, if today i.e. is Sunday then someone long time ago should have said “Today will be Sunday” for the first time in a period from today that is multiple of seven. I was assuming that it was Pope Gregory XIII in October 1582, but looks like he is not. I failed in googling and duckduckgoing out the answer, so I ask for...

I believe most weekday names as we know them in English and many other northern European languages derive from the vikings.

  • Monday, not sure?
  • Tuesday = Tir’s day, Tir/Thyra being a woman in the Nordic mythology.
  • Wednesday = Wotan’s day, also “onsdag” in Nordic languages, Wotan=Odin.
  • Thursday = Thor’s day, also “torsdag” in Nordic languages.
  • Friday = “fredag”, from Frey/Freia in the Nordic mythology.
  • Saturday = lørdag, not sure.
  • Sunday = literally the day of the sun.

De-Google > use Meta and MS > wtf???

[Serious] My high schooler worked at a fast food joint. Recently he encountered one of his underage coworkers under the influence of meth, which she said was given by management. What to do?

My son is afraid of reporting this to police because many of his friends work there, and he’s afraid of retaliation at school for being a “snitch”. This is not the first time he’s witnessed something very wrong and had to report it, that time to police, and he was targeted at school both physically and just with asshole...

Legal trouble is better than mesh addiction.

Other kids’ trouble is better than own kids’ trouble.

Stopping substance abuse is better than not stopping it.

Stopping underage grooming is better than not stopping it.

…honestly I don’t agree with “that poor girl getting in trouble” is worse than what is going on right now.

I noticed my car had been keyed this morning. How should I go about fixing it?

I’m pretty sure this happened away from home and I’m just now noticing. The scratch is really deep hitting the metal in the deepest part. I have full coverage but I’m worried a claim will raise my insurance too much to be worth it. I’ve wrenched on cars before but never painted anything because it scares me....

In the European countries that I am familiar with, a police report is mandatory for an insurance claim, and a formality.

Definitely repair. If you have comprehensive coverage, then double definitely!

I think you are saying what I am also saying, but my post was not clear on this:

The container files live on the server, and I use the volume section in my docker-compose.yml files to map data to the NFS share:

<pre style="background-color:#ffffff;">
<span style="color:#323232;">        volumes:
</span><span style="color:#323232;">            - '/mnt/nasvolume/docker/picoshare/data:/data'
</span>

Would you say this is an okay approach?

EVERYONE in my backwater country of residence uses WhatsApp and they can’t be bothered to use anything else.

When I say I don’t have that service then they are stumped and can’t think of a way to message me. Fucking morons.

Can't figure out NFS file sharing

Sorry, noob here. I have been using Linux for a decade at least, but some basic stuff still stump me. Today, it’s file sharing: The idea is that the server is good at CPU and the NAS is good at storage. My NAS does run Docker but the services are slow; and my server runs a bunch of Docker containers just fine but has limited...

make sure the UID/GID numbers match

But how? Can I change the numbers?

I totally get that Linux is by design a multi-user system, but it is frustrating to deal with when I am the only person to ever work with these machines. I know that my docker user+group is 1038/66544 but most docker commands require sudo so I am not even sure those values are the right ones. It is so non-transparent what ID’s are in effect, for what commands --and on what machine!-- when I am just me.

Thank you for this. I admit that I smiled at your tip to freeze the soaked filter, because freezing it requires the fridge/freezer combo to do so, and where does that unit vent its heat? Into our living space, of course.

So it’s a closed loop with losses, and I found that funny.

…but you still close the door when you go to the lavatory, right? Why? It’s not like we don’t know exactly what you do there.

The argument here is that it’s no secret, but it is personal and nobody’s business. If you don’t want Zuck to watch you pee then you should also not want him reading your texts to your lover.

This is sadly true for so much software, not just Linux but also many Linux application packages and self-hosting packages.

I tried to install Nextcloud yesterday, and failed at three completely different attempts/guides/packages. Same thing happened a year ago. Maybe I’ll try again in a year.

Having worked with preinstalling Windows with a major pc manufacturer, I will say that it is already such a freaking effort that nobody would want to do even more effort to install malware on top.

Notwithstanding so called partner apps… If there’s anything in those, I can’t say.

Indeed, many Netbooks come with a firmware dual boot. Besides the crappy Windows lite edition, there’s a tiny instant-on Linux too. Most people don’t use that, but it’s there.

Wait, he’s got a point though: Why not something like this:

A user wants to create a new community. He enters a name, then the system checks and informs that “the fediverse already has a community by that name +here and +here.” The user may still create this same community on this instance - or he might say, hey cool thanks, and go subscribe to (one of?) the existing ones instead.

I found that running just a NAS is no good because it lacks performance. And running just a server is no good because of data safety. So I run both.

I run a Synology NAS for storage, and an Ubuntu Box for services (Paperless, Mattermost chat, Photoprism gallery, Gitea for Code, picoshare, and lots other small stuff). All services run on Docker (plus Portainer for handling them, plus NPM for certificate handling and subdomains).

How do you lead/manage people who are much older than you?

So I’m getting a promotion soon (yay!), moving up from just a line cook to sous-chef and I’ve only been with this company for a few months. Thing is that I’m still quite young (mid twenties) and will be the direct supervisor of some people a fair bit older than I am. Think 10-20 years older. It might just still be a bit of...
