I guess it is better to spend some little time cleaning up your existing install than doing a fresh one. From what you describe, you just have some leftover configuration files you can delete.

Fresh installs is needed when you messed up your current install with broken packages or missing ones or missing configuration and you just don’t know how to clean it up.

So as long as you can clean up your install, just clean it.

I don’t eat soup. Full stop.

The only two important columns are “Local address: port” and “process”. The later is what process is listening whille the former is the interface that process is listening on and the port.

So you see that I don’t have any process listening on any port other than 80 and 443 iin the host and the regular ones.

That said, you containers will still listen on the ports you want but only on a virtual network interface.

Basically you only need to publish ports 80 amd 443 on the container or pod you have your reverse proxy on. Other containers need to only be attached to the same network as you already did.

Yes this is very important.

For spending, calculate your daily spend limit (monthly income divided by 31) and try not to spend anything more than that any given day. If you need to spend more then you have to save that money from thee day before. Do not lend money from future days. Only accumulate from money not spent in the past. For example your monthly income 3100, then your daily spend limit is 100. You cannot spend 150 and hope that tomorrow you will only spend 50. Do it I. Reverse. Today spend 50. If you manage it, tomorrow spend 100. Only if necessary that you can spend 100 + the 50 you saved the day before.

Also try getting rid of the pets. I can’t believe you pay insurance for the pet. We do have people that have no insurance even for themselves. I know you love them, but it times are hard. Maybe be give them to someone you know so you can get them back once you are doing better.

You haven’t spoken much about food but you have cook your own food and snacks. Do not eat out. Do not but snacks. Your health and pocket will thank you. You can have snacks for really cheap. Just find inspiration in the internet or your relatives.

It is good you have solved you initial issue. However, as you say, your rules are too permissive. You should not publish ports from containers to the host. Your container ports should only be accessible over reverse-proxy network. Said otherwise <my domain>:3000 should not resolve to anything.

This can be simply acheive by not publishing any port on your service containers.

Here is an example of my VPS:

You can use a black theme. Look at gnome-look.org

You can also reverse engineer them to look how they make the theme blank and apply it to adwaita. This is not complicated as themes are mostly CSS.

Edit to add that you can chat with people from open deskttop (gnome look) to ask your question: https://chat.opendesktop.org/#/welcome

@noclue I guess the dress is just three hundred fifty five dollars.

I guess they say $335,000 with a coma si it is just three hunder thirty five dollars while the interest rate is 6.95% with a dot so it is almost a seven?

Why should the drives be sneakily deposited. If he trusts his relative or friend he may just tell them to keep it safe until new gets out.

However the bigger challenge would be to read the files using newer technology since those drive connectors might get obsolete. Maybe you need to store technology you can read it with. For example an external disk drive with USB 3 cables and Somme USB C adapters. If using internal drives this gets a bit complicated since you would need also some cables and motherboards. So external hard drives would be easier.

Seems like you have a permissions issue. I just tested it on Fedora workstation gnome, run it from regular menu, then it asked me for password. You, you have a permission denied isssue, so you need to figure out how to run it as root.

Thanks a lot!

What do they know?

They get better everyday. You will use them at some point if you cannot find your software via your favorite package manager.

I haven’t read other comments but it is worth checkjng your TV audio setup. You might want to set the sound output to cinema or speaking mode. Thus changes the sound and optimizes it for easier listening. If the audio is set to music, it will be amplified and nice to hear but difficult to decipher.

My guess is you your brain puts too much work to decipher the sound and construct words. You can make your brain do leaa work just by changing how the sound is output so it becomes easier to distinguish word, thus not need to compensatory with higher volume.

Of course you may need to experiment with you TV settings to find what is suitable for you. Obviously an audio setting ibtized for speach would reduce quality of music out put.

If you use MS Teams, you will notice that when you start a phone call but still have music playing then out will change in tone. For the same reason, Radio presenter in the past would speak a certain way so they can be heard correctly over the radio.,

Yes, and its activitypub bridge Mostr.

As @xmunk said, cleaning needs to be embedded in other tasks. If you cannot figure out how to embed a given task then you can set it for a fixed schedule. For example, you say that you clean your desk or office on Saturday morning and you have a given set of steps you accomplish.

Another trick I learned from corporate world is to delegate the tasks. It is more manageable to follow up on someone doing it for you than you actually doing it. This can be someone else living with you, or someone you can hire to do. For example, you can hire someone to clean the house every Sunday. This later option could be expensive.

If you want to embed tasks and do it yourself, then you need to make them easy for you, for example, you can overstock cleaning products. Let’s say you have a kitchen microfiber towel that hangs nearby and a dedicated cleaning product at reach. You consider that a meal (launch or dinner) equals, fetching the ingredients, cooking, eating and cleaning dishes, putting away dishes, and finally cleaning them. If you don’t clean dishes then you consider you did not finish your dinner.

Same thing for the bathroom, you need cleaning tools at reach when you are in the bathroom, don’t reuse kitchen stuff to clean the bathroom. Then when you shower, you clean the bathtub, the mirror, the sink, your underwear, wipe the floor, etc.

Great to hear it is a good drop-in replacement. I’ve been using KeyDB, but seeing valkey is more actif, I may endup using it too.

I cannot reproduce it, I just tried to copy some files with various methods but they always end up correctly named. The only difference is that I have Btrfs. I never encountered this issue when I was using ext4 though.

Seems to be a Pixelfed instance.
