Dyskolos

It’s literally in the term. But yeah sure, it’s easier to just smack the same label on everything. Whatever makes you happy.

They could simply

A) dislike X

B) hate/despise X

C) came to the logical conclusion, that X is bad/wrong/shouldn’t be/whatever

D) genereally mistrusting against X due to a careful nature

E) have had traumatic experience with X (e.g. Being raped/attacked by a member of a specific ethnicity) and hence totally overreacting to an otherwise harmless stimulus, even forgetting the rules of civil behaviour

Those all don’t mean there’s the medical condition of a phobia for X.

A real xenophobic has an irrational fear of anything unknown/alien. Doesn’t mean the person just hates e.g. Mexicans for no real reason. It might even like them once they get to know the better, which often just won’t happen as phobics tend to avoid the cause their phobia instead of treating it.

I just dislike the lax use of medical terms until they’re bereft of any real meaning.

So, a person who yanks “speak English!” to someone, could have many reasons to do. None are neither polite nor politically correct. While the asshole is probably just the uneducated asswipe, the phobic could be helped and probably even feels bad afterwards for being so compulsive and insulting.

Not everyone disliking something is necessarily phobic towards it. That’s just one possoble explanation.

Aye. SMS still exists. And for those boomers with their facebook and WhatsApp, it’s not even a new thing ☺️

Added bonus: those who do install “your” app, show a minimum in interest. You’re even worth the “effort”.

Well. I do it the other way. I would not install effing whatsapp just to reach someone. I tell then once where to find me, and, if they want to know, why this is and why i prefer it and why i wouldn’t install app X. If they don’t, then bad luck for me. Or not.

Ubuntu and WinServer2019 vms split over a proxmox-machine and server2019-hyperv-machine

2 each for replication.

Well, it’s a hobby/passion. Simple as that. I’m a nerd, i love such things. And home automation is a thing I’ve dreamt of since the first automatic door in star trek. Automatic lights, alarm-system, cameras, a smart AI (locally, no stupid alexa et al),a tablet at the door which tells us everything we want to know on a quick glance (weather, shopping-list, fuel-prices, status of all machines etc). And all that with some many thousand lines of code and triple redundancy 😍

When i visit other people I actually find it “retro” to use light-switches 😁

I’d second a selfhosted dav too. Recommending Baikal. But it needs a lil bit of “work”.

Yet, if FOSS is more a wish than a requirement: Try Bring. “free”, syncs and has an api to get it connected to smart-home or whatever. Definately the easiest thing.

Didn’t knew it exists. That might make me give nextcloud another chance. Thanks man.

Well, telegram e. G. Still is problematic in germany due to not complying. We in germany might be relatively safe for now, that’s true. But don’t forget what’s at dawn for us. Then tgram & co will be banned and whatscrap will thrieve even more.

I might come across as bitter, but that’s only because i am 😁

No. Never use a messenger for those things, that is legally allowed in most nations. They advertise e2e-encryption and stuff, but also need to comply to governments.

Remember e. G. The reason telegram’s owner was kicked out of his own country because he didn’t comply to leaving a backdoor for the gov? And how it’s, in some nations, one of the only few messenger left that can be used to express a free opinion without “dissapearing” after?

With your pics you’ll train AI-models for free at best.

I would never ever share personal stuff over some mega-corpo’s “free” thing.

If you’re somehow tech-savy go iobroker. Its5like homeassistant but on steroids. There’s nothing you can’t do. Do your logic by moving blocks or pure Javascript. Things you could do?

• your cars gets near the house => unlock door, open garage-door, turn on lights

• you leave home? Let your sonos-speaker tell you which doors/windows are still open or if you left the stove on. Let it Ask you if it should enable the alarm and then switch on the ip-cams and set the system to armed and lock the doors.

• have a tablet display the weather-forecast, the climates around the house, the fuel-prices near you and what’s on your shopping-list.

• have multiple light-scenes (or air-condition or fans or…) on a key at each rooms entrance. Or voice-controled. But not between 2200h and 0600h. Except Sundays. Unless it’s bright outside. Or you’re on holiday. Or YOU are not home but a burglar.

This is part of my setup. Endless possibilities 😌

Ah okay. Sounds safe enough. Thanks again :-)

Thanks for the tips! But did i get it right here? A container can has access to other containers?

I only use like 10 VMs, guess there’s no need for overkill with additional stuff. Though I’d like a gui, there probably is one for docker? Once tested a complete os with docker (forgot the name) but it seemed very unfriendly and ovey convoluted.

Ah ok thanks, the security-aspect is indeed important to me. So I shouldn’t really use it for critical things. Especially those with external access.

Lol…nah i somehow prefer at least caddy non-containerized. Many domains and ports, i think that would not work great in a container with the certificates (which i also need to manually copy regularly to some apps). But what do i know 😁

Won’t need to containerize my own stuff. Yet. But many apps just give a recent docker or some outdated manual install stuff. Hence why i get more and more annoyed/intrigued by docker 😁

Thanks for the guide!

Oh… But that means I need another server with a reverse-proxy to actually reach it by domain/ip? Luckily caddy already runs fine 😊

Thanks man!

Thank you. Guess i really need to take some time to get into it. Just never saw a real reason.
