Hexbear? I wasn’t expecting that.

Apologies to hexbear users that I may have called Chinese bots. You were just useful idiots after all.

Sounds like a full time job. Must be exhausting.

Ain’t nobody got time for that.

Polyamory is already mainly an upper class thing.

You are hard-pressed to find poly groups in rural areas and blue collar workers. It’s usually first-world college educated urbanites.

Fascinating country.

It’s worth more than one visit, just due to its huge diversity. Food is amazing, and it’s very lively. But you have to get used to it, and go with the flow. If you can’t live without all the first world luxuries and/or don’t feel comfortable stepping outside your bubble, don’t go, it’s not the place for you.

Would I live there? No. And I’m deeply saddened by the political direction it’s heading in. But don’t form opinions about countries you’ve never been to.

He looks like Patrick from SpongeBob.

Nothing says desperation like going to a country even more sanctioned to buy some weapons.

I don’t self-host a lot of things, but I’d say this is not the easiest I’ve done, just because it involves setting up multiple containers (unlike something like SearXNG). Also thought that I had to set-up an SMTP container, but I got away with not having to do it.

I used ansible (and pass to store credentials), so this is how I did it (maybe someone can pitch in and tell me what I can improve):

- name: Deploy Wallabag database
  community.docker.docker_container:
    name: db_wallabag
    image: mariadb
    recreate: true
    state: started

    log_options:

      max-file: "1"
    env:

    volumes:

    healthcheck:

      interval: 20s
      timeout: 3s

- name: Deploy Wallabag
  community.docker.docker_container:

    name: wallabag
    recreate: true

    env:
      MYSQL_ROOT_PASSWORD: "{{ lookup('community.general.passwordstore', 'self_host_containers/wallabag_mysql_root_password', missing='warn') }}"

      test: ["CMD", "wget", "--no-verbose", "--tries=1", "--spider", "http://localhost"]
      interval: 1m
      timeout: 3s

Then I set up caddy for the reverse proxy

- name: Upload Caddyfile
  ansible.builtin.copy:
    src: ./upload_files/Caddyfile
    dest: ~/Caddyfile

- name: Deploy caddy
  community.docker.docker_container:
    image: caddy:2
    name: caddy
    user: "1000:1000"
    recreate: true
    state: started
    memory: 500MB
    restart_policy: always
    log_options:
      max-size: "10m"
      max-file: "1"
    links:
    - "wallabag:wallabag"
    ports:
    - "80:80"
    - "443:443"
    volumes:
    - ~/Caddyfile:/etc/caddy/Caddyfile
    - ~/caddy_data:/data
    - ~/caddy_config:/config

And this is the Caddyfile

my.url.com {
    reverse_proxy wallabag:80
}

Finally, you then have to login with user:wallabag and password:wallabag and change them in the webUI. I changed the “wallabag” user to my user and set a new password.

I’m in the US and “lefty” might mean something different for me than it does for you. Where I live and the sites I go on - have leftys on there but no, they never use the term tankie.

As I mentioned, it’s used in discussion circles with leftists beyond center left (i.e. someone who’s more left than Bernie Sanders): Anarchists, Marxists, Maoists, etc. Lemmy might be the only site you go to that has a sizable proportion of these.

On Reddit, if you go to places like r/anarchism, r/socialism, r/stupidpol, you get to see it being used.

Annoying is an opinion yes, but I’m saying its annoying because of how often it is brought up.

It’s brought up a lot here because there are a lot of them on lemmy. You’d never hear people around your neighborhood complain about something that doesn’t happen in your neighborhood.

Maybe you are not seeing as many because your instance might block them. But I see them all the time is news articles about Ukraine or North Korea.

I see that there’s a discussion thread that goes on about this, not gonna get involved on that.

You’re welcome!

Wallabag.

I self-host my own instace, save articles I want to read from my laptop, and then they sync with the app on my phone. I read them offline when I have some time to kill

It’s a very common word in leftist circles. So if Lemmy is your first contact with leftists (beyond center left), then that explains it.

Being annoying is your opinion, but it’s not a buzzword that someone gen z invented recently.

The term goes back to the 50s and 60s, hardly a buzzword.

Sorry to tell you, but you’ve been living under a rock.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankie

Have a look at comments in any news article regarding Ukraine. They will simp for Russia just because they are not US allies.

A tankie is commonly used to refer to someone who blindly defends the actions of the USSR, China, North Korea, etc. Going as far as denying human rights abuses and genocide.

It’s not the same thing as woke.

Tankies.

You can’t have a discussion about anything without some tankie blaming it on the US / the west / capitalism, etc.

“Oh you stubbed your toe on the table? See, tables are oppressive furniture of the bourgeoisie. The Chinese government wanted to make all tables toe-stubbing resistent, but that would affect IKEA’s bottom line and the pharmaceutical industry’s profits. I have a source from tankiepeoplesmagazine to back this up.”

If you don’t mind selfhosting, miniflux is pretty nice.

Really lightweight, downloads the full text if possible (instead of just the first paragraph), etc.

Obviously it was the Ukrainian Nazis that caused the explosion. /s

Because one can be pinned down to government involvement, while the other can’t.

It’s the classic CCP defense: “We’re not an authoritarian country, you’re just racist!”.

EDIT: not saying that it was or wasn’t a lab leak, but as soon as the government shoots down the possibility with “you’re racist”, I immediately get suspicious. The same way that I get suspicious when Israel shoots down criticism with “you’re just anti-Semitic”. It’s basically gaslighting with identity politics.

Americans keep culturally appropriating Italy, first pizza and now fascism. smh

Ah yes, right wing nationalism is a problem exclusively in Ukraine. Russia invading a neighbour has nothing to do with Russification.

You’re also an American tankie who seems to have a knewjerk reaction of blaming everything on a group of Ukrainian white nationalists.

Italians are perfectly capable of having their own home-grown right wing clowns. They invented fascism after all.
