Oh, right! Duke of Edinburgh? Yeah I'm familiar with that. I think my former school (an international school that uses a UK-based curriculum up until but not including years 12 & 13) introduced it near the time I graduated. I just was not familiar with the acronym, and could only think of Department of Energy.
Do you think that these are unrelated? Capitalism builds on puritanical protestant ideology, which played a part in the early spread of capitalist ideology. See Weber's The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism. It's not a perfect cause and effect, but rather one piece of a web of cultural influences.
Oh, is this a reupload? I actually unsubscribed from William C. Fox on Nebula because I was finding his lectures a bit long and rambly. I wonder if the 10 hour version of it was what made me pull the trigger on that...I forget exactly what it was. I did see November's How Every Democracy Dies (4.5 hours).
It didn't fix everything, or even fully fix my Redis container. But it did improve things a lot. This is now my full Redis logs:
2025-12-29T17:01:52.277109213Z Redis has started
2025-12-29T17:01:52.746857972Z 7:M 30 Dec 2025 03:01:52.746 # WARNING: The TCP backlog setting of 511 cannot be enforced because /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn is set to the lower value of 128.
Sorry, I'm not 100% sure I follow. Is this a quip about Nextcloud being difficult to run? If so, is it a loving one, or do you think it's not worth the effort and I should try running something else?
Seems weird to me that there’s an AIO container that seems to contain other containers, but anyway I guess thats a synology thing.
No, that's a Nextcloud thing. From what I can tell, it seems to be the preferred way of setting up Nextcloud these days. https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one
afaict it's not that one container contains the containers, so much as one container is given control of the Docker socket so that it can create and control the other containers automatically.
all those containers are “starting” because theyre waiting for one other container to finish “starting” before starting up themselves
Apache and notify-push are waiting for Nextcloud. Nextcloud is waiting for Database. Whiteboard is waiting for Redis.
I have no idea what's wrong with Database, Redis, or Collabora, but their errors aren't obviously related to dependencies, to me. (Collabora's could be, but it's at least a different type of dependency since the logs are mostly [ remotefontconfig_poll ] ERR Remote config server has response status code: 502 (Bad Gateway)| wsd/RemoteConfig.cpp:133. I've not really started looking into it since it's a rather downstream component and the core components failing is more important.)

Is the 404 in the master container logs from you trying to access the instance in your browser?
Doesn't seem to be. Seems to add a new log periodically even when I don't try to load it up. I'm guessing the 404 comes from some kind of automated uptime checker?
Deep down I'm still an edgy militant atheist, and really want nothing to do with religious celebrations
Me too, but ironically though I agree with most of your other criticisms of Christmas, this one I actually consciously reject. I make a point of emphasising the fact that in the year 2025, Christmas is 99% a secular holiday that just happens to have a little religious backstory.
I don't particularly like the notion that it's unreasonable to expect to be able to get healthy food at affordable prices without being required to use a car...
Or the conflation of using a cargo bike with being some impractical urban hipster.
I mean, describing anything she's done as "men vs women" is pretty fucking weird. Describing problems caused by patriarchy is not "men vs women", it's ways a male-dominant society hurts women—and, sometimes, men too.
And is it a matter of her "turning every video into" that? Or is she choosing video subjects where that's a relevant factor, because it's her area of expertise?
Thankfully your explanation combined with a Google search was enough to get it.
