  • How would you expose Jellyfin securely without a vpn?

    Jump

  • That’s basically the VPN solution but with a little more flexibility.

    If you want to actually expose the service, you can use Tailscale to connect it to a VPS and then expose that port to the web with Nginx, but if you do that, be prepared on the security front because…you know…open internet be full of hazards.

  • As your friendly neighborhood cigarette representative, I would also like to ELY5 and say: have you seen our cool animated camel and did you know that menthol tastes like candy? Also, your older brother has a pack in his drawer that you definitely shouldn’t steal from. Good luck, kid! /s

  • Is it just me or is Lemmy less active than reddit?

    Jump

  • Well…duh! Reddit had a massive head start plus they’ve sold their soul to the money guys to ensure that they remain a staple part of the normie diet.

    Furthermore, Reddit is a home for propaganda that gets artificially inflated by bots and state actors, thus leading to insane upvote counts.

    Here, we have a refined palate. We don’t have 1000 posts of slop, we have 100 posts of open source trans autism. Once you train your taste buds to be accustomed to nutritious content again, you won’t be able to stomach the slop anymore.

    It’s an adjustment, but it’s worth it, and in the end, I feel like this place has been better for my mental health.

    Welcome to Lemmy. We greet you with open arms.

  • I think she is poorly wording an idea that I’ve been talking about for a minute: the death of the cottage industry.

    The avenues for a temporary gig are diminishing. You can’t drive uber or make store deliveries if a robot does it cheaper, you can’t sell weed if it’s legal everywhere, and you can’t even stand outside Home Depot and get picked up as a builder if the powers that be are arresting people and enforcing trespassing laws. We don’t live in the 1930’s anymore—you can’t make ends meet by pickling your backyard vegetables. Unless you’re a hot chick who is willing to sell her nudes on OF, then there aren’t really many options for the unemployed to survive.

    The human connection is great and all, but the bigger thing she learned was that those drivers needed that opportunity to drive so they could meet their expenses. It still isn’t enough, but something is still better than nothing.

  • What are some provocative but legit characterizations of a substance you learned and that makes sense?

    Jump

  • Put simply, I’ve done a whole lot of drugs and been around a whole lot of drug users. I’ve used just about every method of administration.

    My personal experience and opinion is that powder cocaine is a medium level drug. The intoxication isn’t super extreme unless you are really digging in to a bag, and if you pace yourself, it is easily manageable and enjoyable. Crack and injected cocaine come on much stronger and shorten the duration of the high, so it is like compressing a powder high into a bigger “up and down”.

    As with many drugs, the addictive potential lies partially in the users inability to tolerate discomfort and partially in the habit forming nature of dopamine stimulation.

    The more you use in a session, the more awake you are, and the less you are receiving the euphoria. This leads some people to chase the high for days, slowly going a little nuts from sleep depravation and exhaustion. I believe you would see a similar effect in anybody who stayed up for an equal length of time, it can just look more erratic on cocaine because there is extra energy fueling the exhausted person due to the sped up metabolism.

    That said, the discomfort of a comedown, especially from only a gram or two of powder, is not actually that extreme, especially when compared to other drugs like heroin or methamphetamine. It’s just a little anxious awake-ness that wears off in an hour or two and is totally gone after you sleep. You might wake up a little foggy, but probably better off than a night of drinking would leave you.

    In my years of using hard drugs, the only people I saw display bipolar behavior on cocaine were people who were either already mentally ill to begin with or people who were doing large amounts of crack or intravenous cocaine.

    This is all just my experience and my opinion though—nobody should read this as scientific proof of anything. That said, I think first hand accounts can also paint a clearer picture of behavior and risk sometimes too, so take it for what it’s worth.

  • I disagree with your assessment of cocaine. It tends to make me awake, calm, and talkative—not really bipolar. The comedown can include a little anxiety, but it isn’t that bad—mostly just still feeling wake when you are out of happy chemicals from the high.

    If I were to try to make a similar generalization, I would say:

    [Cocaine Wakefulness Unit] is equal and opposite to [Marijuana Sleepiness Unit].

  • The /s was to indicate sarcasm. You’re on Lemmy—you’ve definitely watched every episode of Star Trek. /s

    I’m with you on the science, but I also leave a little room for the possibility that we don’t know what we don’t know. There is a lot of theory within our scientific cannon about multiple dimensions, folding space time, wormholes, etc, and we barely understand how any of it works. It’s perhaps unlikely, but possible that there is a level of scientific understanding which resolves these issues and makes long distance space travel doable.

  • I don’t know how you’ve made it this far in life without realizing this, but other people don’t act and think about things exactly the same way you do. I have totally done the year subtraction to calculate an age gap before, so that makes at least two people in the world who have done the thing that you think is totally inconceivable.

  • You clearly haven’t watched Star Trek. /s

    The aliens could be coming here covertly to observe us like a nature documentary. They may even have non-interference rules for primitive cultures. Or maybe they’re just shy.

  • Uh…you do if you just google a celebrity’s birth year and subtract it from yours, just like a young woman might do when making a random post about her celebrity crush.

    Your posts in this thread have been kind of intrusive and inappropriate in my opinion. Maybe it’s best to just drop it. It isn’t that important how she calculates year gaps.

  • This person’s super sleuthing of your post history is weird and kind of creepy. I believe you, and the other dude’s insistence that you’re a secret 17 year old is bizarre. It’s usually best to leave people like that alone because they are unlikely to concede even if you provided proof.

    Also, Brad Pitt is pretty endearing on screen, for sure.
