  • I feel you but... it's too quick. Maybe we could do a trial where they just get drilled by smart people for several weeks about every single shitty thing they did, then the sentence could be death by mortal combat.

  • If I made a list of the members in this administration that I'd like to watch defend themselves in a trial, obviously Trump would be at the top of the list but Kristi is a solid, though somewhat distant, second. I just want to see those vapid tapped out bimbo lips flapping around "but I was just doing my job flappity flap flap".

  • I just had hot English on my roast pork for dinner. Magnificent.

  • Yeah nah.

  • This is obviously "good" but can someone help me understand how meaningful this is?

    I presume this is a good indicator that the happenings in recent month have "activated" voters?

  • But... he's right?

  • Not sure what youre getting at.

    Obviously it depends how good and how bad.

    Also, there going to show both - but the frequency of each will depend on their assessed likelihood that im going to click and the revenue generated if I do so.

  • Sorry I don't understand why your grandma would say that.

    If she got pregnant to a guy out of wedlock she would be entirely at his mercy. Presumably your great-grandpa did the right thing all the way along. However, there would be no way to force him to contribute to the child's welfare. Additionally, your own prospects as an unmarried mother were pretty dismal I think.

    In 2025 I think things have changed - there's certainly no point being married in Australia for example. The mother of my children is not my mistress, she's my partner. In the context of the law she is the same as my wife. The reason we're together is not a piece of paper or a promise, it's because every day for the last 12 years we have woken up and chosen to remain together.

    Polygamous or poly-amorous relationships are more common than they ever have been?

    Honestly it sounds like great grandma was saying "I stayed with the man I loved and it worked out for me but you should get married".

  • I don't think that this dynamic was particularly uncommon in the before times anywhere in the world.

    I think it would be uncommon for a family who's daughter had been violently abducted and raped, to force that daughter to marry the perpetrator.

    However, in cases where the daughter may have been manipulated with trinkets or promises of marriage, into providing consent (rape by some definitions), then requiring the guy to marry the daughter may in some cases be a desirable outcome for the daughter because it does at the very least ensure her welfare, after a fashion.

    As an aside, yes this is more or less the definition of a shotgun wedding in English. Although, in 2025 it's not really rapists being forced into marriage but fathers. As in, if you get someone pregnant you might be forced (not by law but by social custom) to marry her, usually in a few months before she starts to show.

  • Is it only me that finds personalised / targeted ads to be very poorly personalised and targeted ?

  • Sorry what?

    I think I've misunderstood you because this is certainly possible, and I'm sure you're aware of that.

  • Its this.

    IDK about "lonely" exactly but I definitely dont get a lot of attention or kindness from people.

    Now I think about it i dont offer much either but thats life i guess.

  • How do you feel if someone who is not medium attractive winks at you?

    Or if they just say something weird, like a joke you don't appreciate, and wink at you?

    I guess there has to be some kind of established not-a-creepy-stranger before risking a wink becomes appropriate.

  • I, uh... think most people are pretty unattractive when they're naked.

  • Let people use post whatever they want.

  • Yeah but you guys have your own kind of mustard, and tomato sauce, and the epstein ballroom, and those ridiculous big cars. It's surely the greatest country in the world.

  • I generally do my best to avoid accusing commenters of being bots, but when a commenter only has the capacity to comment about the one issue which has been engrained into their personality, they may as well be a bot.

    services:
      qbittorrent:
        image: lscr.io/linuxserver/qbittorrent
        container_name: qbittorrent
        environment:
          - PUID=888
          - PGID=888
          - TZ=Australia/Perth
          - WEBUI_PORT=8080
        volumes:
          - ./config:/config
          - /srv/downloads:/downloads
        restart: unless-stopped
        network_mode: "container:wg_out"
    
      

    this is my compose.yml for a qbittorrent instance.

    the part you're interested in is the final line. There's another container with the wireguard instance called "wg_out". This network mode attaches this qbittorrent container to that wireguard container's network stack.

  • I'd seen gluetun mentioned but didn't know what it was for until a moment ago.

    I've heard of tailscale and at least know what that does but never used it.

    I personally have a mullvad subscription. I have a container connected to that with wireguard, and then for services I want to use that VPN I just configure them to use the network stack from that container.

    I'm not suggesting that my way is the best but it's worked well for several years now.
