I was just playing with this yesterday trying to get the Docker image working on ARM and I went down a rabbit hole trying to build a new image for ARM, not realizing that one is already built/distributed šŸ¤¦

Thanks for this!

I didnā€™t notice either because the .16 version worked for me without a tag. When installing .17 I started getting errors and had to search around.

NickofSantaCruz , to startrek in Episode Discussion | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | 2x01 "The Broken Circle"

The Mā€™Benga-and-Chapel-are-Max-Payne sequence went on far too long: only one group aboard the ship had weapons (and Stormtrooper accuracy) of any kind? Iā€™d have preferred a stealthier sequence: after reprogramming the transponder, they use a series of Jeffries tubes to get to the airlock with the intent of opening it to escape but the ship takes off to ruin that plan.

Other than that, it was a decent episode to get the season going. Spockā€™s emotional journey will be a focal point of the season, which Iā€™m okay with. SPECTRE The Broken Circle Gang is probably going to show up again and I wonder if weā€™ll eventually see some TOS villains retconned to be members. Carol Kane will be fun and with what was said of her species, Iā€™m betting on her making at least two ENT references during the season.

Interesting that the false-flag ship is Crossfield-class: the saucer is a clear match but the drive section is completely different. Were the Discovery and Glenn modified from that spec to fit the spore drive research project or was the ship we saw a wartime refit of the class?

arod48 ,

So Die Hard on a spaceship? We did that with Starship Mine already but I definitely wouldnā€™t mind seeing it again. Is Starfleetā€™s version of the Hippocratic oath ā€œFirst, do no harm, unless you have to, in which case go hard.ā€?

As for the Crossfield-Class, I thought it might either be that the classification of Discovery made them change the format of it for obfuscation purposes. Either that or they built that ship from salvaged parts from the war, and the saucer/transponder was from a Crossfield, and Uhura was simply reading from the transponder code the ship class.

Yes. IIRC that was stated in of the first handful of Discovery episodes. (possibly the one where they encountered the Glenn?)

glymfeather , to asklemmy in People of Lemmy, what is the scariest paranormal experience you've had you can't explain at all?

I was about 11 and bicycling through a cemetery as the sun was going down. Iā€™d gotten separated from my group, but I was really familiar with the cemetery and knew my way around well, so I was heading back to the exit to wait until I could rejoin the group.

The path I was on ran along the edge of the cemetery where there was a tall fence topped with barbed wire, the whole thing overgrown with ivy. On my left was an older part of the grounds, where there were some low tombstones from the 1800s and early 1900s. I was coming into the foot of a steep hill, so I was pedaling pretty hard and alternating looking down at the gravel path under my wheels and glancing up along the path and out across the open field to my left to see if I could spot any of the others.

I remember I was looking over at a specific tombstone over on my left, one of those tombs with the lamb statue on it that used to be traditional for young children. And I turned to look forward along the path when this pure white thing went right past me, close enough that I could have touched it if I had an arm out. It was upright, around the height of a short person, all white, no real defined features or shape that I remember. My first thought was a rollerblader (?) because there was no walking movement and the speed it was going. I whipped my head around to look behind me, and I couldnā€™t see the figure.

I donā€™t know where it could have gone. A person couldnā€™t have climbed the fence that fast. It was going pretty quick, but I was halfway up the hill and had a clear view along the path all the way to the front of the cemetery and there was no way it could have cleared that entire distance that quick. I looked out across the field to my left, and it wasnā€™t there either. There were a few headstones over there that could maybe provide cover like the lamb tombstone, but they were all either too small to hide behind or too far away to have gotten to that fast. I stopped my bike and was standing there, looking around, when I realized that whatever that thing was, it hadnā€™t made any noise. The path was gravel and even from where I was standing with one foot on the ground, I could hear the gravel crunching at even slight movements.

At that point, I started pedaling back up that hill pretty fast and got out of there.

I have another scarier one that took place over several months, but itā€™s hard to talk about.

glymfeather ,

Iā€™m going to try to explain the scarier one. Iā€™ve only told two people about this because I worry people will think Iā€™m insane, but here goes. Sorry about length, itā€™s a hard story to explain.

It was around the time of the cemetery incident, maybe six months later, when this started. I was at church on a Wednesday night. My family was really religious, so I spent a lot of time there, and it felt as comfortable to be there as it did in my own living room. My parents had dropped me off early so they could get some errands done, but I didnā€™t care. I didnā€™t see anyone else there yet, but I headed back to my classroom for the night and was hanging out. I got bored after a bit, because thereā€™s only so many times you can review your bible memorization homework. It occurred to me that I had been in the classroom across the hall that Monday and seen a bed of irises outside the window that were about to bloom, and I had wondered what color they were, so I walked over there to look.

The other classroom was set up lecture-style with a podium at the far side of the room next to the window and rows of chairs facing it. I went down to the window and was looking out - the irises had bloomed and they were that really dark purple color.

Suddenly, I knew I was being watched. And whatever was watching me, I was scared of it. All my hair stood up, and I felt like I couldnā€™t move. I donā€™t know how to explain it, but there was something sitting in the chairs behind me.

It felt like it took forever for me to be able to turn around, but it was probably only a few seconds. I looked at the chairs, and they were empty. But then, something happened and this is the hard thing to explain. It was like a filter dropped into place for me and I could ā€œseeā€ on a different level what was there, like a heat vision overlay, but with color. And it was terrifying. There was this large thing sitting there, arms crossed, looking at me. And I swear to God, it saw me seeing it, and it grinned at me.

I donā€™t know how I got out of there. I was so afraid of that thing and its long arms looked like they could grab me if I tried to get past along the aisle. I must have run. I ran back to my classroom and held my bible and prayed that it wouldnā€™t follow me. I couldnā€™t believe what I had seen, couldnā€™t even wrap my brain around it. Eventually I heard voices and other people coming to class and I realized I couldnā€™t tell anyone, theyā€™d think I was a liar or making it up. So I tried to look normal and put it out of my mind.

I didnā€™t see it again for a while, and I was trying to forget about it. But one night, I was at the church alone early again, and I was walking back to my classroom when I saw it. It was hanging out in the lobby, and it was standing this time. It was so tall, and its arms were so long with these long fingers. And it saw me.

I was panicking, but the sanctuary was right there, and I thought, ā€˜sanctuaries are holy, whatever that thing is canā€™t come in thereā€™ so I bolted in through the door and ran down to the altar. I turned around to look back toward the door, and saw it swing open as it walked in. It walked down a few rows and sat down by the aisle, looking at me.

And at that point, I was absolutely terrified. Whatever it was, it opened the door, so it was real. And it was in the sanctuary, so there was nowhere it couldnā€™t go. I was there for a long time, crying and shaking, but I eventually went up one of the side aisles and out a side exit and ran as fast as I could away from there. I waited outside the church for a while until I saw someone else from my class coming in and stuck close to them.

That thing started waiting for me every week. Sometimes in the lobby, sometimes in the hallway back to my classroom. I couldnā€™t tell anyone, because theyā€™d think I was crazy or lying. I never saw it leave the building, so I think it was stuck there. It wouldnā€™t bother me if I was with other people, so I started only going places where there were other people. When I was alone, it would chase me, but it never actually touched me. But being near it filled me with this insane primal fear and I would feel like my heart was going to stop.

When I was 12, I was sent to a class at church to find out what my spiritual gifts were, and the pastor said that I had the gift of Discernment of Spirits. Depending on your denomination and church, that might be interpreted as anything from having a good sense of what a person is feeling and knowing the truth behind what theyā€™re saying to a way more literal interpretation that you can see angels and demons. After that, I prayed so hard for God to take away my gift. Because whatever that thing was, I didnā€™t want to see it.

My family moved out of state when I was 13, so I donā€™t know if that thing is still there or if I can still see it. I donā€™t want to find out.

julianh , to linux_gaming in What's the outlook for switch emulators?

Yuzu is already really impressive. I have a relatively low-end system (rx570, ryzen 2200g) so Iā€™m not really trying to push graphics, but Iā€™ve been playing totk comfortably at 20-30 fps (yeah I know my standards are low, but itā€™s perfectly enjoyable). There are a few occasional graphical bugs, but none are game breaking, and the major ones have been fixed. And remember, this game is a recent release. Older stuff is generally going to work a lot better.

Since itā€™s mostly cpu bound, with a more powerful system (and probably a less demanding game) you can probably up the resolution quite a bit. I was even able to turn on fsr without a noticable performance loss.

Thereā€™s a compatibility list you can check, although it seems down right now.

satanslittlehelper ,

That compatibility list isnā€™t worth checking. It hasnā€™t been updated in years when compatibility can improve dramatically even between minor releases. Iā€™m playing games at 1080p with no glitches on titles that the compatibility list tell me shouldnā€™t be able to get past the menu.

Also, that list doesnā€™t consider workarounds making a title playable, so titles like Diablo II, which apparently works just fine if you use an offline patch (havenā€™t tried this, myself), are listed as incompatible.

tl;dr: If that list says that a game is playable, itā€™s probably playable, but if it says the game is bad or not working at all, youā€™ll need to look into it yourself.

julianh ,

Oh, didnā€™t know that. Thanks for clarifying!

erisir , to selfhosted in [SOLVED] Selfhosted or alternative privacy driven google calendar?

Iā€™m using Etebase as a self-hosted backend for this purpose. It is zero-knowledge, so not even your own server knows about your calerdar, to-do list, and contacts (but it does know when have you edited entries, I think).

Thereā€™s an android app for synchronization, and on the desktop, you can run a daemon to expose a standard CalDAV/CardDAV interface for e.g., Thunderbird. The alternative is the Flutter-based client, either on the web or as a desktop app, I think, but I much rather prefer Thunderbird (I have other accounts from work to synchronize, too, and TB lets me look at them in one place).

Iā€™m not sure about the Todoist integration, though. That sounds like it would compromise privacy.

I used the docker-compose file from the official github repo: github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/ā€¦/docker-compose.yml

But after the comment from @marsara9 I changed it to pull the image from dockerhub instead of building it myself. Now it pulls correctly and the server comes online but is almost unusable. The homepage displays but I cannot login as admin or create a new user :/

Edit: Here is the docker-compose.yml I used

Edit 2: I think I found the issue why the server is unusable. I have websocket errors https://lemmy.ml/pictrs/image/21dc500d-7b78-43ad-8ccf-691b8096151f.png

Donā€™t pull dev use 0.17.4

lemmy: image: dessalines/lemmy:dev

lemmy: image: dessalines/lemmy:0.17.4

Also in your Pictrs environment you may need:

- PICTRS__SERVER__ADDRESS=0.0.0.0:8080

Lastly did you do the following before runing your docker-compose up -d cmd?

mkdir -p volumes/pictrs sudo chown -R 991:991 volumes/pictrs

Have you edited your lemmy.hjson yet to ensure details match the docker-compose.yml? The instructions for that part are not very clear and I had to do lots of trial and error to get it working.

Also, @hyper, what does your nginx.conf look like? Now that the webpage is loading, the backend might be blocked/not configured properly in nginx, so nginx isnā€™t properly forwarding requests to the backend.

I use this knife which came with the toast rack and a jar of marmite. We donā€™t use the toast rack (two of us usually and 4 slice toaster), so we got rid of it eventually. The blade came out of the handle and the Marmite sign has come off, but Iā€™ve since glued the blade back in (just need to wash off the residue but been lazy).

    Why would a teacher ban students from going to the bathroom? Thatā€™s a normal bodily function. What do they expect the kid to do?

    Cakein ,

    As a teacher, I would always let kids go. Although depending on the situation, I might say ā€œwait a minute until -other student - comes backā€ or ā€œjust listen to this instruction first so you know what to doā€. You definitely get to know kids who ask to leave to get out of work, but rather than stopping them going, you need to work out why they are avoiding the work in the first place. Often itā€™s anxiety about the work being too hard, or they just need a sensory break because classrooms can be overwhelming. In those cases, itā€™s actually not that helpful to force them to stay in the situation anyway.

    Bulimic_Fraggle , to ukcasual in Thursday Moans

    Despite all my good intentions my pain levels are really bad right now. Not sure if it the heat or if my body is just reminding me that it doesnā€™t have to use my stomach to make me miserable.

    As such, I will be stuck inside today, if I attempt to get sunscreen between my shoulders I this state I might end up in A&E. Wish the cricket were starting today instead of tomorrow, that would be a perfect excuse to not move at all. Also, I have some ā€œripen at homeā€ plums I bought three weeks ago, they would be perfect for the netsā€¦

    Obviously donā€™t know your circumstances, but living with pain of any sort is just so demoralising! Have you tried the likes of Sapphire Medical Clinics etc for prescribed cannabis meds? I get prescribed actual weed but also a tincture of 20mg/ml THC and 20mg/ml CBD and the stuff is a god send for my wifeā€™s rheumatoid arthritis. Itā€™s something like 50 quid for the intial consultation, and then 50 quid every 3 months for a check up consultation. Tincture is 30ml for Ā£100 and that lasts the whole month.
