Hmmm.. Maybe it's to prevent scripts from downloading / ripping content off their platform? That's the only theory I can come up with. Although if it's true, they don't do a very good job at it, considering I've seen plenty of WebDL-1080p Netflix exclusive content on torrenting platforms.
Tip: if you have an Android TV, you can install SmartTube as an alternative, privacy-friendly YouTube client. It has no ads and sponsorblock integration
If there are no external volumes and the container is in its own network without any other containers, then any malware in the container shouldn't be able to reach / affect the host server, because it's isolated.
Docker is a container manager, but that doesn't say anything if you don't know what containers are.
Containers are basically isolated apps. For example, take something like Nextcloud. Nextcloud can run in a Docker container, which means that it runs in an isolated environment completely separated from the user's system.
If Nextcloud breaks, the user's server won't be affected at all, because it's running isolated.
Why is this useful? Well, it's useful because dependencies and such automatically update. Nextcloud for example, is dependent on PHP and if you install Nextcloud directly on your server, you'll need to ensure that PHP 8 has been installed and set up properly. If PHP (or the required PHP extensions) aren't properly installed, Nextcloud won't work. Or, maybe if there's a Nextcloud update that requires a new version of PHP (PHP 9 or 10 in the future), you'll have to manually update PHP to the newer version.
All that dependency management is completely gone with containers. The container itself automatically installs and sets up a proper environment for the app that's running. So in the case of Nextcloud, the PHP binaries, extensions, and all the other stuff is all automatically included without the developer having to do anything at all. Just run one command and your entire Nextcloud instance is automatically updated.
I'd first recommend that you think about what you need.
What do you need? Do you want a safe space to back up your photos & videos from your phone? Or maybe a way to stream your movies, series and/or music in a cheap way?
Once you figure out what you want to host, you can look into which program can fulfill your needs. Check out the awesome-selfhosted list for a HUGE amount of services you could host.
You could try making a symlink, so that there is a 'file' in the Nextcloud directory which points to the Immich gallery, although I'm not sure how good it truly works.
My parents grew up before TV and I asked my Mum what they did instead. She said they were mostly just bored.
Reminds me of a tweet I saw. It went kinda like this:
"I asked my sister what our parents did before there was internet. She didn't know either, so we asked our 18 other siblings".
That man is a genuine threat to the European Union, Europe as a continent and the Western world as we know it.
As an European, I used to think of an 'European army' as a stupid idea, but now I think it has become a necessity to ensure the security of Europe. We can no longer rely on the US to be a reliable ally. Whether it's about supplying arms, maintaining military hardware or coordinating military exercises, they should no longer be trusted. Why? Because this guy is crazy enough to provide Putin with all the highly sensitive data on European defenses. He'll probably tell Putin where all the (secret) military bases are located, where the anti-air defenses are placed, and how the defenses work. He's a traitor to the NATO alliance and a threat to the security of Europe.
Personally, the main thing that makes me stay alive is the hope that it might get better in the future.
I tell myself that as long as I believe in myself, there's always a chance for a better future. Always a chance that whatever bullshit I'm in, it'll be over eventually.
Additionally, I keep suicide close with me. For all problems, I think to myself that there's always one solution, which is suicide. This thought kind of comforts me, because regardless of how bad things become, I always have an easy way out.
For some general tips, I'd suggest you start exercising. Additionally, make sure you stay hydrated, drink enough and eat enough. Basically, just make sure you've got a healthy body, because a healthy mind cannot exist in an unhealthy body. Or at least, it's very difficult to have a healthy mind in an unhealthy body.
Next, I suggest you start thinking 'What's the main problem in my life right now? If I were a millionaire, how would I use my wealth to get out of my problems?'. If you know what exactly is causing your unhappiness, then you can try and fix it. And if your job is a problem, then be more specific. What exactly about your job makes you unhappy?
Why are you unable to participate in the world? What withholds you from gaining happiness? If it's just your job, then I'd suggest finding another job, but that seems like an obvious answer, so I assume you've already looked into that.
I wanted to study computer science, but I needed to do a calculus-like course in order to qualify. Unfortunately, I didn't have this course during high school, so now I'm doing something called "Adult education", which allows me to catch up with this missed course. If everything goes well (and it seems like it!), I'll finish the course in May 2024 and enroll in September, after summer break!
Besides that, I'm also a bit bored lol. I was working on this programming project of mine, but I've almost finished it. Unit tests are the only things left and I don't like writing those, so I'm procrastinating.
Something that (sort of) makes me fulfilled, is going to the gym. I'll be honest, I don't really like the workout itself, but after a couple of months, I have seen actual muscle growth in my shoulders, back, and (upper) arms and it feels like I'm actually making progress. This has only encouraged me and now I'm lifting 18kg for the dumbbell press :D
If you would like to keep track of the movies you watch and give them a rating from 1 - 10, I'll suggest Movary. I'm a contributor of the project and the goal is to eventually add support for TV Shows as well.
