  • Plugging in my steam deck dock to my steam deck, then putting a mechanical keyboard makes the dock station turn off?????? (SOLVED)

    Jump

  • If you plug the Deck charger into the dock, then plug the Deck and keyboard into the dock, it works, right?

    If so, the problem is that the Deck does not provide enough power for both the dock and the keyboard.

    I have my charger plugged into the dock 24/7 with no problems.

  • What happens if you do:

    Deck -- docking station -- regular usb hub -- mechanical keyboard

  • I still do not trust Sony after the CD rootkit incident.

    Maybe HMD?

  • What's your strategy to ensure date night goes well?

    Jump

  • My strategy is to have been married to the person for at least a decade so expectations are set.

    1. "They're rambling about trains again; good thing I brought my knitting."
    2. "Oh, they brought their knitting, I may as well keep rambling about trains because they are not paying attention."
    3. good food
    4. walk
    5. bed

  • How to manage docker compose apps?

    Jump

  • I have 5 docker-compose-based services. I wrote a shell script:

     
        
#!/usr/bin/env bash
for y in $(find /etc/ -name docker-compose.yml); do
  cd $(dirname $y)
  docker compose pull
  systemctl restart $y
done

  • The number of times I wanted to go get a burrito for lunch (Moe's was next door to my office building) but went hungry instead solely because I did not want to hear "WELCOME TO MOE'S!" is very non-zero.

  • The Mayor of Los Angeles is urging Governor Newsom to veto a bill making it easier to build apartments near transit

  • Letting the majority of voters who have to deal with the consequences of our collective decisions impose their will on the minority of self-centered rich people is a great way to run a government.

  • UK could raise nearly £2bn by taxing SUVs in line with European countries, study shows

    Jump

  • It would be better to have no SUVs than to have the 2 billion pounds.

  • Driver claims cyclist punched him in face and threw bike at car, causing £1,000 worth of damage, after motorist hit him “at about 2mph”

    Jump

  • "at about 2mph" means at least 10.

  • You just described me better than I could, down to what my wife says. (Except I never got therapy.)

    I never got treatment, and do not see what advantage treatment could give at this stage of my life. The important thing for me is having a few friends who are also autistic, having a spouse who understands my issues, and having a job that accepts my strengths and weaknesses.

    I think the lack of friends who are also autistic was the big difficulty for me early in my life. I did not know I was autistic, and did not have any interactions with anybody else who was. I always felt like an outsider, even at home with my family. Having a few (but no more than a few) friends I could really relate and connect to, and the independence to be me and not have to conform all the time make life good.

  • Why not just keep /home on a separate partition? Or just backup ~/.mozilla/?

  • How old is she? It can take a long time to learn to express emotions. I was terrible at it in my teens, still pretty bad at it in my 20s, and I finally feel like I am getting kinda okay at it in my mid-40s.

    Be patient. Let her know that it is okay if she cannot explain an emotion today.

    Consider the two of you keeping a diary of times that she was and was not able to express feelings. Maybe in the future at other times she can go through it and say "I feel like I felt when we wrote this entry", or "I think this word/expression/description describes how I felt then", or "I think this fictional character we are watching/reading is supposed to feel how I felt at this time". Maybe it will help her learn how to explain some emotions, or least help you identify in retrospect.

  • How to use a domain I own to self-host services?

    Jump
    1. Consider getting a VPS to play around with to learn how this stuff works before you expose your data to the internet.
    2. Learn about how DNS works. You will create an A record (and possibly also an AAAA recordy) for your domain pointing to your home IP (or VPS).
    3. If SquareSpace does not let you set records (and will only allow you to use Squarespace-hosted services) you will need to migrate your domain to another provider. I like gandi.net.
    4. Learn how your router does port forwarding. You will forward port(s) for the calendar service from your router to your home PC. (Or learn how to do firewalls on your VPS.)
    5. Before you actually connect to it with credentials over the internet, set up SSL/TLS certificates with LetsEncrypt.

  • What's your dream bike like?

    Jump

  • That looks pretty nice.

    Those brake cables should be cut much closer to the caliper though, you do not want those getting caught in the rotors.

  • I bought an old brown steel Salsa Fargo frame for cheap on a whim to build up with other parts I had lying around. The fork I thought would work did not, so I bought an old brown steel Surly fork for cheap. 1x10 mountain drive train, Jones H-bar, rack, fenders, and 50mm semi-slick tires. It is great for riding around the neighborhood. It is great for gravel, dirt paths, and fire roads. It is great for grocery shopping. It is fun once in a while on mild mountain bike trails.

    I have a nice mountain bike that I have the most emotional attachment to. If I could only have one bike, I think I would have to pick my Brompton. But somehow this became the bike I ride the most.
