Never heard about The Story Graph before, but it looked cool so I created an account to check it out. I could not find any way to create custom integrations (or make any integration at all).

One option would be to pull your data from ABS via its API and then use JavaScript to navigate The Story Graph’s website to “manually” update your progress.

Edit: If you want to work with Python, someone has created a library to work against their website as if it was an API: https://github.com/ym496/storygraph-api/tree/main
It uses an HTML parser to map the response from the website.

Is it possible to view files in the root of the vault?
Also, is it possible to show non .md files?

My use case for the second question is that I have .pdf and .xml that acompanies my notes. Having HelixEditor showing them as well (or opening them in system default editor) would be nice.

How do you manage your containers?

Would a self signed certificate be an option? Not sure if the hassel is worth with the applications on the phone.

If you like compose files: https://www.composerize.com/

docker run -it --rm -v <your-data-path>:/data -e SYNAPSE_SERVER_NAME=<your-public-address-subdomain> -e SYNAPSE_REPORT_STATS=no matrixdotorg/synapse:v1.136.0 generate:

name: <your project name>
services:
    synapse:
        stdin_open: true
        tty: true
        volumes:
            - <your-data-path>:/data
        environment:
            - SYNAPSE_SERVER_NAME=<your-public-address-subdomain>
            - SYNAPSE_REPORT_STATS=no
        image: matrixdotorg/synapse:v1.136.0
        command: generate

docker run -d --restart=always --name synapse -e SYNAPSE_REPORT_STATS=no -v <your-data-path>:/data -p 8008:8008 matrixdotorg/synapse:v1.136.0:

name: <your project name>
services:
    synapse:
        restart: always
        container_name: synapse
        environment:
            - SYNAPSE_REPORT_STATS=no
        volumes:
            - <your-data-path>:/data
        ports:
            - 8008:8008

Caddy makes HTTPS a breeze. I’ve tried nginx before but I never understood when and why I would need which setting.

What’s bad about hairpin NAT? Not having to maintain a local DNS server is nice.

Do you need one app for syncing caldav and another app for using the calendar?

I learned from anther comment that this picture is from the Birmingham Civil Rights Institute.

Thanks! Much appreciated.

I’m not in the US.

I just read about “Racial segregation in the United States” on Wikipedia. Does signs like these still remain in places today?

I’m not from the US. I knew about Apartheid in Africa and I knew about the Triangular trade. I know that being a POC in the US comes with problems, for lack of a better description, compared to being a white male. I did not know that black people were seperated by law until around 1968 (according to Wikipedia, that is when segregation was outlawed in full, as of Civil Rights Act of 1964, Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the Fair Housing Act of 1968 (but not in de facto, because people)).

As to my original question, I consider recent around the last five, perhaps ten years. I would imaging this picture being taken around 1970, before something like this (hopefully) would have been removed.

EDIT: I should add that I also knew about black people and white people not mixing back then, but not that it was also by law.

EDIT 2: Now that I think about it, this is depicted in Umbrella Academy.

What is the context behind this image? This cannot be recent, can it?

A snapshot is like copying a the files in the snapshot to another location, while the original files remain as is and can be written to or read from.

As an example, if you have a folder, let’s say /important/secret/stuff, and you want to take a backup of it. You have to make sure that nothing is writing to those files while the backup is running, otherwise the backup risk being corrupted. (This is because if the backup starts to read the file, and halfway through the first part of the file changes, you now have a backuped file that half the old and half the new file).

With a snapshop, you can “copy” /important/secret/stuff to some other location, run a backup reading from this other location and then remove it. Any changes to the original files will not affect the backup since the backup is reading from the “copied” files (snapshot).

So what you do is take a snapshot before running the backup, have the backup read from the snapshot and when it is complete, remove the snapshot.
