I hate how much I agree with you in principle and how ugly it looks in practice. With doubled periods, at least - different marks don’t trigger that same reaction. For example, a question mark inside, followed by a period or comma outside feels right.
It’s not grammatically incorrect to end a sentence with a preposition. It’s a common misconception that it is a rule, basically because one guy argued in favor of it back in the 1600s and had some support for formal writing in the 1700s. But it’s never been a broad rule, and even in formal contexts it’s not a rule in any current, reputable style or usage guides (so far as I know, at least).

This is what I would try first. It looks like 1337 is the exposed port, per https://github.com/nightscout/cgm-remote-monitor/blob/master/Dockerfile

### Variables for the container
NODE_ENV: production
TZ: [removed]
### Overridden variables for Docker Compose setup
# The `nightscout` service can use HTTP, because we use `nginx` to serve the HTTPS
# and manage TLS certificates
INSECURE_USE_HTTP: 'true'
# For all other settings, please refer to the Environment section of the README
### Required variables
# MONGO_CONNECTION - The connection string for your Mongo database.
# Something like mongodb://sally:sallypass@ds099999.mongolab.com:99999/nightscout
# The default connects to the `mongo` included in this docker-compose file.
# If you change it, you probably also want to comment out the entire `mongo` service block
# and `depends_on` block above.
MONGO_CONNECTION: mongodb://mongo:27017/nightscout
# API_SECRET - A secret passphrase that must be at least 12 characters long.
API_SECRET: [removed]
### Features
# ENABLE - Used to enable optional features, expects a space delimited list, such as: careportal rawbg iob
# See https://github.com/nightscout/cgm-remote-monitor#plugins for details
ENABLE: careportal rawbg iob
# AUTH_DEFAULT_ROLES (readable) - possible values readable, denied, or any valid role name.
# When readable, anyone can view Nightscout without a token. Setting it to denied will require
# a token from every visit, using status-only will enable api-secret based login.
AUTH_DEFAULT_ROLES: denied
# For all other settings, please refer to the Environment section of the README
# https://github.com/nightscout/cgm-remote-monitor#environment
To run it with Nginx instead of Traefik, you need to figure out what port Nightscout’s web server runs on, then expose that port, e.g.,
services:
nightscout:
ports:
- 3000:3000
You can remove the labels as those are used by Traefik, as well as the Traefik service itself.
Then just point Nginx to that port (e.g., 3000) on your local machine.
—-
Traefik has to know the port, too, but it will auto detect the port that a local Docker service is running on. It looks like your config is relying on that feature as I don’t see the label that explicitly specifies the port.
When did Democrats have a supermajority in both the House and the Senate?
I thought Hue bulbs used Zigbee?
The up arrow moves through the letters, e.g., A->B->C. The down arrow moves to the next character in the sequence, e.g., C->CA->CAA. If you click past the correct letter, you’ll have to click all the way through again. And if you submit the wrong letter, you have to start all over (after it takes twenty seconds attempting to connect with the wrong password and then alerts you that it didn’t work, of course).
Okay, and? What nontechnical user cares enough to use it specifically when they could use Microsoft Office, Google Docs, Polaris Office, MobiOffice, WPS Office, Collabora, etc., instead?
But do nontechnical users care about the “missing” features? A lot of nontechnical users prefer simpler apps.
There is a version of Blender that was made for Android. It’s quite old, though. But if you’re competent enough with Blender that you’ve memorized all its keyboard shortcuts and workflows, you’re likely technical enough to get it working via Termux. But if not, Nomad Sculpt (on both iOS and Android), SpaceDraw (Android only), and several other apps can serve the same purposes.
Not sure why you listed video editing software and two different specific video editors, but Android and iOS both have Lumafusion. I’m sure there are other decent editors but I haven’t used them because Lumafusion is great. iPads do have DaVinci Resolve, though, for what that’s worth. If you care about using a FOSS video editor then you should care enough to install it via Termux. But let’s be real, most nontechnical users are probably happy using CapCut.
DJ software - Cross DJ is free. There are other alternatives. And there are web based DJ software apps like YouDJ.
OnlyOffice is available on Android already.
“any linux app” - I don’t think any nontechnical users want GParted on their Android phones, and it wouldn’t work anyway.
Android has its own games, same as iOS. Nontechnical users are way more likely to want Windows games than Linux games anyway.
Wine used to be developed natively for Android but they stopped a few years back. You can still download it at winehq though. I think Box64 with wine is a decent option?
Overall the thing I’m confused about is why you think Google or any major Android phone manufacturer have a motivation to make native Linux apps more accessible. Google certainly doesn’t want to make it easier for you to use the better versions of their competitors’ apps. Google is moving further away from Linux, not closer. Providing a usable, good enough desktop experience that’s still Android underneath makes far more sense for them.
Fortunately, like I said earlier, there are workarounds to get access to those Linux apps.
The thing that is more likely to change is for the creators of Android apps to build apps that function better when used in a phone-as-desktop format. And even if they don’t, there are enough competent web apps out there that just being able to use your browser full screen on a monitor solves 90% of people’s actual use cases - and probably over 95% when you include the other apps that have decent desktop experiences that can be run alongside them.
The Steam Deck approach is much closer to what you seem to want. The Steam Deck is an actually competent Linux machine that has a Valve-supported compatibility layer in Proton for running non-Linux games. It plugs into a USB-C hub connected to a monitor, mouse, and keyboard just fine, can install any Linux app, etc… It’s completely usable handheld as well. But it isn’t a phone, and even though it’s quite portable, it’s not “stick into your pocket” portable.
I don’t expect a major manufacturer to make a Linux phone any time soon, and I don’t think the Linux phones that are out already have - or will have in the next 5 years - a smooth enough experience to convince any nontechnical user to switch.
There are mobile versions for all of those?
What are the gaps in functionality for nontechnical people? And “apps that exist on Linux but not Android” doesn’t count, because such people are unlikely to have ever even used a Linux desktop in the first place. The improvement that matters won’t be Linux apps; it’ll be Android apps that are more usable in desktop mode.
That said, what are the issues with the apps that are currently available?
If a user installed Chrome, an office suite (whether that be Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides, the Microsoft equivalent, or something else), an email client, and other commonly available apps, what tasks would they be unable to complete, if any?
Are these, or other commonly used apps, substantially less usable than on desktop? If so, how so?
Can’t you just use GNURoot Debian and XServer SDL to get a Linux desktop env on any Android phone?
There’s an xda-developers guide on this and the two apps are still in the Google Play Store, so I assume it’s still feasible.
I’m not sure how well it plays with DeX and other similar solutions, though.
That’s assuming the apps aren’t capable enough to handle being used on a desktop on their own, of course. What sorts of gaps did you see, and in which sorts of apps?
This is already a thing
Samsung DeX was the first big one but there are a bunch of competing ones that do similar things now.
A big part of the reason that Republicans are more able to pass legislation is that smaller states have a larger impact than they should, based on their populations.
Each state has a number of members in the House of Representatives in proportion to their population - 52 for California. Each state has two members in the Senate, so CA has the same amount of power in the Senate as Wyoming, which has a population of under 600k to CA’s 39 million.
Beyond the impact on Congress, the sum of those counts determines the number of electoral votes a state has in presidential elections. So California has 54 electoral college votes.
If California split up into 12 different states, each would end up with 6 electoral votes. The total count in the House would decrease from 52 to 48, and some other state would get the remaining 4 (though even that could be avoided by just having some sub-states be large enough to get 5 Representatives) but the total count of Senators would increase from 2 to 24 and the total electoral vote count would increase from 54 to 72.
Many of the smallest US states are firmly red, which means Republicans don’t need as much popular support to make policy changes. This would help reverse that. Heck, if California went all the way and split into 65 states, each with the population of Wyoming, they’d end up with 195 electoral college votes.
I feel like the US would take over California again if that was the case.
I’m not sure how you think the US would take over CA again, or what the impact would be, if it continued to be part of the US and just split into several different states. Could you elaborate?
I’d much rather California split into 12 different states, each with roughly the population of Nevada.
No offense taken, but thanks for the comment! If someone was offended and they saw your comment, I think it would probably help
I thought it was like the way one’s brain is wired that causes them to have slightly different perception than the rest.
I’m no expert, either, but this is a solid explanation IMO. It’s why autistic people are prone to sensory overload; their brains don’t filter out noise (like the hum of the refrigerator, the sounds of people chewing, or background conversations) the way that most allistic people’s brains do. It also definitely could have been the reason, or at least contributed to, why the woman from your post was confused - particularly if she was trying to figure out why allistic people did something.
Sorry, that’s incorrect.
Autism is commonly comorbid with mental health disorders (aka “mental illnesses”) like anxiety, depression, ADHD, etc., as well as with intellectual developmental disorders, but autism is still considered, at worst, a neurodevelopmental disorder, regardless of where an individual falls on the spectrum.
Both the DSM-V and ICD-11 are in agreement about this, for what that’s worth, but you could also just do a search for “Is autism a mental illness?” on Duckduckgo, Kagi, Searx, Bing, Google, or whatever, if you want to confirm.
I’m lucky enough to be able to budget for things I want. If it’s in the budget, no justification is required. If it’s in the budget but expensive, then I just have to figure out if I want it more than the other things I want (or will want) that I won’t be able to afford as a result.
