If you add white vinegar to load, you won’t get the ick from clothes sitting in washer for hours.

Please forgive a wildly uninformed question: What is it that VMware does today that isn’t covered by Docker?

I heard someone say there’s a North Montenegro now. Is that true?

I’m so tainted by Borat.

I wonder if companies should be forced to provide a product’s core tech diagrams, material science, and major code base revisions to a kind of escrow, which is then released when the product is sunsetted.

Oh, good! I might finally get a break from the buttplug I lost last week.

Prediction: The world will return to something that looks like feudalism, with increased clamping on birth rates until a few rich holders remain with their human retinues solely there to entertain and flatter them. Otherwise, AI and robotics will cosset them.

Once production is automated there is little need for workers, and once knowledge work is automated there is no need for a professional and technocratic class. Consumers have nothing to spend, so they are effectively a drag on the economy of wealth.

That world then looks a lot like the time before the merchant class developed. Everything of any quality is made for the wealthy, and everyone else exists solely at the pleasure of their masters.

 

I am not a networking expert, so please forgive any poor or unclear terminology here . . .

My recently built Unraid Plex/Arr box works great, but I would like to set up NGINX Proxy Mgr and reverse proxy. My current challenge is that when I install NPM, all of a sudden all of my Arr apps, which are set to network though OpenVPN-Client, start mapping 443>443 and 80>80 (app to host).

Sonarr, Radarr, Readarr, NZBGet, qBittorrent, Bazarr, Requestrr all have app-to-host mappings like this, when NPM is installed:

Network: container:OpenVPN-Client

Port Mappings:

10.0.1.99:443/TCP10.0.1.99:443

10.0.1.99:80/TCP10.0.1.99:80

10.0.1.99:81/TCP10.0.1.99:81

My OpenVPN-Client app-to-host mappings don't include either port, which makes this doubly confusing:

172.17.0.2:3579/TCP10.0.1.23:3579

172.17.0.2:4545/TCP10.0.1.23:4545

172.17.0.2:6767/TCP10.0.1.23:6767

172.17.0.2:6789/TCP10.0.1.23:6789

172.17.0.2:6881/TCP10.0.1.23:6881

172.17.0.2:6881/UDP10.0.1.23:6881

172.17.0.2:7878/TCP10.0.1.23:7878

172.17.0.2:8080/TCP10.0.1.23:8080

172.17.0.2:8191/TCP10.0.1.23:8191

172.17.0.2:8989/TCP10.0.1.23:8989

172.17.0.2:9696/TCP10.0.1.23:9696

NGINX Proxy Manager network and mappings:

Network: br0

Port Mappings (App to Host):

10.0.1.99:443/TCP10.0.1.99:443

10.0.1.99:80/TCP10.0.1.99:80

10.0.1.99:81/TCP10.0.1.99:81

And, when I remove NPM, everything goes back to normal and works fine, with no app-to-host mappings showing up for Arr apps in the main Docker view.

What dumb thing have I done?

That was very helpful, thanks!

Only problem I have left is getting NGINX Reverse Proxy Manager set up, so that I can offer Overseerr webpage. The Let’s Encrypt cert generator keeps throwing an internal error at the last step. Something is preventing LE from reaching my server, and I’m too clueless to solve at this point.

 

OpenVPN-Client is running normally, per its logs and ifconfig.me. The vpn.ovpn and vpn.auth files are working properly.

In the Extra Parameters field of Deluge template I have added: --net=container:OpenVPN-Client

In OpenVPN-Client template:

 - Network Type is set to None
 - I have added a port record: Host Port 8112 and Container Port 6881

Deluge's WebUI won't load at all. I tried qBittorrent instead, using the same approach as above, and it won't load the WebUI either.

It was fascinating to watch the rideshare companies convince their San Francisco drivers to actively support and evangelize the bill in California that ruined their ability to get benefits and employment protections, then turn around and extract so much value away from those drivers in the period since that most of those drivers, who tended to be American-born and have relatively nice cars, have been replaced by recent immigrants driving fleet-owned older cars. I would also not be shocked to learn that the latter are being cheated by whoever signs them up and helps them navigate Lyft and Uber’s processes.

There used to be a business joke you’d hear in the ‘60s, often attributed to John Wanamaker, a pioneer in marketing:

“Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is, I don’t know which half!”

The joke highlights the dilemma many businesses face in evaluating the effectiveness of their advertising spend. It’s remained relevant in the advertising and marketing industries, reflecting the challenges in measuring the impact of advertising efforts.

 

For a couple of years, I have been serving Plex to a few friends and family from an NVIDIA Shield Pro on a gigabit fiber. Before that, I served from a Raspberry Pi.

I have basic Linux skills, and my dream is to build a more automated setup. Unraid OS with Plex and -arr apps looks great to a non-expert like me.

So, I just picked up an unmolested original Lenovo ThinkCentre M710Q 7500T with 16GB RAM, and a 256GB M.2. I have a spare 2.5" 2TB Samsung EVO 970 SSD that I could put in it; I also have a 3.5" WD Red 4TB external HDD.

Here are my questions:

  • Do I need more RAM to be able to serve four 1080 streams at once?
  • Should I use the SSD or HDD, or both?
  • Any other advice or suggestions? It's appreciated!
 

I started with XMBC then Kodi then Plex on a succession of Raspberry Pis. Then, four years ago, I switched to running Plex on a Shield Pro.

Now, I am trying to pick up enough Linux and Docker knowledge to be able to set up a Plex server, just for video, with automated RSS torrent management, running in Docker on an 8GB Raspberry Pi 4 running Raspbian Bullseye.

I am not a technologist by trade, so hoping to find a Docker image that enables that without needing a lot of additional Linux plumbing to make it work. I am old and mostly rely on rudimentary UNIX skills left over from the late-'80s.

Thanks for considering!
