I think you still have to specify the URL up to the greader.php page, maybe in your case it would be

gnzl , 6 months ago to gaming in What game company from your childhood do you remember with fondness?

I was going to say Digital Illusions but for Motorhead, the racing game. The OST for that game has been in my music rotation for decades and it’s still in my top 3 of all time.

gnzl , 6 months ago to asklemmy in What are some of your, "If I like this, what else might I like" questions?

You have a lot of recommendations already but I’d like to add two of my favorites: Courtney Barnett and Alvvays!

gnzl , 7 months ago to asklemmy in Younger users of Lemmy: Did you ever love a game that you just really sucked at?

I don’t qualify as a “younger user of Lemmy” but I love games like Street Fighter and Mortal Kombat. I suck at all of them, except for Killer Instinct but I’m only kinda good with Combo.

gnzl , 8 months ago to technology in Google-hosted malvertising leads to fake Keepass site that looks genuine

Turning it on by default would be a massive disservice to the work that domain registries and registrars have been doing to allow Unicode to be used in domain names. In Spanish speaking countries the ñ character is pretty ubiquitous for example, and the workaround of replacing it with an n creates many problems like misdirected web traffic and typos in email addresses. Unicode in URLs and domain names is a feature, abuse should be attacked by means other than disabling it.

gnzl , 9 months ago to technology in what do you guys think ?

Is VR really so ubiquitous to warrant these concerns? In my opinion most of the warnings about how this technology encourages “escaping reality” apply more to things that have had an established place in society for decades, namely phones, social media and online gaming. I have two kids and a VR headset is the least of my concerns, but they could be sucked in to the non-reality of a personal phone in two seconds if I allow it.

gnzl , 9 months ago to asklemmy in What's your favorite music trope?

This one is probably very specific but Utada Hikaru has one that I love, where towards the end of certain songs she sings the chrous, and then keeps the same melody going multiple times but with different lyrics. It’s like she extends the feeling and rhythm of the chorus but keeps it interesting by using different lyrics the whole time. Some examples: Goodbye Happiness, Making Love, About Me, LETTERS, Sakura DROPS.

gnzl , 10 months ago to asklemmy in What would your contribution be for a book put together to restart a a civilization?

My contribution is a very practical tip for parents: When you need to carry a kid sitting on your shoulders, first pick them up and have them sit with both legs on your right shoulder. Then, with your right hand, grab the kid’s right leg, and with your left hand grab the kid’s left leg and lift it over your head to place it in your left shoulder. Mirror the maneuver if necessary. The result is a quick lift-sit-and-switch technique, and fewers kicks to the head.

gnzl , 10 months ago to asklemmy in What is your favorite insult in your native language that doesn't exist or cant be directly translated in English?

I love this one, reminded me of a similar insult in Chilean Spanish: “Le faltan palos pal puente” (he’s a few sticks short for a bridge)

gnzl , 10 months ago to asklemmy in What is your favorite insult in your native language that doesn't exist or cant be directly translated in English?

In Chile, not really an insult but rather a lament over how dumb people are sometimes:

“Si los weones volaran, pasaría nublado” (If dumb people could fly it would always be cloudy)

Chile here, love Argentinian insult acronyms like LPQTRMP

gnzl , 10 months ago to asklemmy in What do you call Marshmallow in your native language?

Malvavisco in Spanish as others mentioned, but in Chile we also call some varieties “guagüitas” (little babies) for some reason

gnzl , 10 months ago to asklemmy in Can you post your political views in the form of a rhyming poem?

Ever since I have been married with kids

My days are too short for me to give a shit

gnzl , 10 months ago to asklemmy in What are your thoughts on the latest news about UFO sightings?

We’re like monkeys in a zoo to them

People love seeing monkeys in the zoo, the closer the better! I think if we could travel to other planets to check out other life forms we would do it all the time. I don’t believe aliens have come here, but if they exist and could come see us they would totally do it for the same reasons we would want to go see them. Makes sense to me!

gnzl , 11 months ago to selfhosted in run my own authoritative DNS

I recommend NSD or Knot for strictly authoritative servers. BIND is great too, but it is built to do both authoritative and caching DNS which makes it a bit too “big” for the task of serving only authoritative DNS data. You can definitely configure BIND to only serve authoritative data though.

I can’t comment on running from a container, I’ve always worked with NSD/Knot/BIND building directly from source.
