Why yellow over red or green?

Louis frequently tells his viewers he doesn’t know why people listen to him yap. I took him at his word. His yaps are 99% nothing and 1% content.

If you think being critical of this dude is me being a bootlicker than you’re a moron.

If it was filled with good bourbon, yes

What book promised magical powers? How have you practiced recently?

I came into it after taking a class on Buddhism then went to a local Zen temple.

Beat to block, report, and call them out or just give up forums. That’s what I do for such people.

Your posts is too vague though. Either you find the medium or host you like or you’re out of luck, unfortunately

I think moderation can work just like cold turkey can work, depends on the level of addiction, addiction, and user.

Exactly my thoughts

Anytime this vague question is asked we find it’s because the OP has bad takes then gets hurt.

Once the game starts what difference does it make?

 

I understand America's history of poor treatment of minorities but what has caused many liberal white people to casually talk as if they aren't white.

Some examples:

  • A friend has an eastern European neighbor move in. He says he's glad they are that instead of American white.
  • Feeling they are individually responsible for what their ancestors and/or rich and politically affluent white people did in the past.
  • Acting as if white people anything is bad.
  • Making jokes at their own expense but won't dare say the same thing to another ethnicity.

I don't mean this post as a worm-brained right wing or political discussion, but just seeking to understand this odd internalized behavior I've seen recently.

Rule 3: Avoid controversial topics (politics or societal debates come to mind, though we are not saying not to talk about anything that resembles these). There’s a guide in the protocol book offered as a mod model that can be used for that; it’s vague until you realize it was made for things like the rule in question. At least four purple answers must apply to a “controversial” message for it to be allowed.

I really don't mean this to be about politics but about how people act!

Edit Thanks for the report @lolola@lemmy.blahaj.zone I tried not to frame this in a controversial manner.

 

It's starting to feel just like any old social media/forum but with less users...

 

Obviously if public the material would be important. But private, only over ssh or vpn? Free internet, power, and backup!

 

Inspired by this comment to try to learn what I'm missing.

  • Cloudflare proxy
  • Reverse Proxy
  • Fail2ban
  • Docker containers on their own networks

Another concern I have is does it need to be on a separate machine on a vlan from the rest of the network or is that too much?

 

Sorry idk if this is the right place to ask.

Struggling with retrieving my offline emails!

Changed the server info and password but email is the same.

 

As of now I only have one off-site server at work.

 

I thought it would be nice to have a space to share whatever you want if it's a thought, practice, or experience you had throughout the week.

I am planning to post these on Monday moving forward.
