Another option to reduce (but not eliminate) this traffic is a country limit. In cloudflare you can set a manual security rule to do this. There are self hosted options too but harder to setup. It depends what country you are and where your users are based. My website is a business one so I only allow my own country (and if on holiday I might open that country if I need to check it's working, although usually I just use a paid vpn back to my country so no need). You can also block specific countries. So many of my blocked requests are from USA, China, Russia etc

I think we're both correct and the og picture has included a photo of the pluribus set by accident. I've been trying to find a similar shot in breaking bad but nothing comes close, especially the view from the house to the street and beyond. All shots I can find (without rewatching the whole series) show the house itself.

I thought the exact same thing! Must be the same location

A small percentage of humans are knobs, so if you split into drivers, bikers, cyclists and pedestrians, then within each one there are knobs. I regularly see all go through red lights, go the wrong way up a road, don't give way etc.

The impact of these are different though. Drivers kill, and can kill other drivers and anyone else on the road. Motorcycles can kill cyclists and pedestrians but are more likely to be killed themselves by drivers. Cyclists can hurt and even kill pedestrians (although lower chance), and can be killed by drivers and bikers. Pedestrians are just exposed as fuck.

We should design the roads to reflect that - pedestrians first, [transit maybe here?] cyclists, bikers, then drivers.

I think bikers should be factored in and in some cases fuckcars includes them as victims of car brained culture (and acknowledge they are smaller, less harmful up the environment etc) and in some cases say fuckbikes (they can kill you and do emit green house gases).

In what sense? It's pretty hard to compare a Saturday afternoon in Trafalgar Square vs Canary Wharf vs Burgess Park to a Tuesday morning rush hour time in those same places.

It's a massive global city with anything you can possibly want to do or eat, with some amazing areas to some shit areas and everything in between! It can sometimes be crazy, hectic, busy, expensive but theres a reason went millions of people live and/or work or travel there every single day.

It's not for everyone but that's fine. I know people who can't stand it, and I personally can't imagine living anywhere else. Most people fall somewhere in the middle though. Everything in life is a compromise in some way.

Currently, it's colourful and busy with Christmas lights, parties and markets. Crime feels the same it's ever done (generally pretty safe but you have to be careful). It's so much nicer to walk /cycle places than it used to be with wider pavements, pedestrian areas, cycling lanes etc. If you're driving, it's horrible. The tube older lines are still horrible but new Elizabeth line is amazing. Some suburbs have lots of flags up, some have none at all. The cost of everything is crazy - £8-9 for a pint typically.

"Criminal damage", of course. Of course the obtaining of the crown jewels was always completely moral, justified and legal, like the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koh-i-Noor signed over by an 11 year old is valid and definitely not a spoil of war...

Never tried it but heard so much talk about jellyfin I tried that and it seems to work pretty well so far. Is there any advantages of emby over jellyfin?

[–] brewery@feddit.uk 3 points 2 weeks ago

Screw you for calling me out so well... I'm literally lying on my couch scrolling through Lemmy because I couldn't actually sleep on my nap, which I'm taking in the middle of the day even though I have shit tons of work to do

What the actual fuck

This is good to know, thanks for sharing. I've only got it local for now after installing at the weekend and wasn't sure how secure it was for external access.

Same. I finally switched over to jellyfin recently as it was low down on a long list of stuff I want to do, let alone need to do. I feel like I got my worth and if things mess up with jellyfin, I've got a temporary backup option to spin up without having to give a single penny more. Fingers crossed, no more of my data either seeing as it's all uninstalled.

 

The one joy I can take from this morning is being part of the collective action when the drivers in my one lane of traffic worked together to keep out the twats who went in the wrong lane going the other direction, who blatantly tried to skip past it all but got stuck, especially when they would've been better just waiting behind me when I was last in my queue.

No, even if you have an unnecessarily large range rover (for my suburban London area) with illegally tinted windows and custom licence plate, you can't just indicate and try to force your way in. We're now going too fast for you to do so as our light has turned green but yours hasn't, as it does every time.

Yes, please hit my car exactly where my wife scratched it accidentally but we don't want to pay for the repairs, where it'll clearly be your fault.

 

I'm currently using NPM and upgrading to a new VPS for my business. I have a public website and am going to host a few more for friends, plus a few other services. Everything is on docker for ease. I use Cloudflare for DNS so would prefer using a DNS challenge. I will change this at some point but not yet ready to!

Should I:

  1. stick with Nginx Proxy Manager which I know well (is it really that insecure or outdated?)
  2. switch to NPM Plus (assuming this is the easiest)
  3. switch to Caddy (seems to be there most recommended but will be a learning curve for me)
  4. Try out Nginx (seems like a massive learning curve so I'm very reluctant)
 

I have to laugh about the fact that half the flags are the wrong way around so here is a friendly guide.

It assumes the flag pole is on the left by the way.

 

"...was hit by a car and suffered fatal injuries while trying to cross a road in his birth village Beas Pind, near Jalandhar in Punjab, [India] ..."

RIP to an inspirational person. He only started distance running at 89!

 

I bought this waterproof coat and backpack, seperately, over 10 years ago and wow, they have been exactly what this sub looks for. I've used and abused both.

I actually didn't realise they are both from the same brand. I had this realisation that this coat and bag are my most used and lasting items. When I went to post this I realised they were the same brand!

The backpack has survived use on every form of transport you can imagine, being thrown around on the floor and carrying way more weight / size than you could expect it to.

I live in England so the jacket has survived a lot of rain but also, being folded / scrunched up in my backpack in case it rains, which is very often!

Best of all, last year the velcro on one of the cuff straps came off and found out that Berghaus has a repair service (https://www.berghaus.com/repairs.list). I paid for the postage to them (around £2) and two weeks later, they sent it back repaired and ready to go for many years more.

 

Please DM me and I'll get back to hit within 24 hours

My 6 year old has just completed Lego city undercover on a Nintendo switch. I will switch to a steam deck for my own gameplay but to sweeten the deal and let me sell the switch, please could you recommend games that would be good for a 6/7 year old?

Looking for games he can play by himself without much help and also games we could play together.

Thanks in advance!

 

Was feddit.uk down for a while yesterday

 

Does anybody know a way of either converting (on android) a putty key to something I can use in ConnectBot, or a good android SSH app that can use Putty keys natively?

I am away from home without my laptop, which I would usually use. I only have my android phone with me.

A few months ago I tried creating RSA key pairs to use with Putty on my laptop and ConnectBot but for some reason I just could not crack it so gave up. I also used puttygen to create an RSA key but it would not work on ConnectBot

Next step is to run past to see how fast I can get it. Its on a massive downhill so might be pretty fun

By the way, this link is a Peertube instance (federated YouTube)

This bloody sign went up a little while ago and is set completely wrong. It's a 30mph road but I've had it sad face when driving past above 20mph, which has scared me enough to slow down pissing off everyone behind

 

I was always under the impression that on a “normal" 4 exit roundabout (i.e. two roads crossing), you would indicate left if going left, right if going right, and no indication if going straight on. Then whichever way you're going you indicate left when passing the exit before. However, a number of drivers indicate right when going straight on, which means I stop expecting them to continue around but could've entered the roundabout. Am I incorrect here? Was there a time when something different was taught?
