Oh man. If I could find a way to stop the phishing emails, I would absolutely love it.
No idea why exchange consistently lets through emails asking to change exchange passwords? Surely they would be the easiest to seperate out

The ttionya/vaultwarden-backup tool is intended to work with Docker volumes. However, you are using a bind mount, not a named volume. Bind mounts refer to the use of local folders to store data, as in your case (./vaultwarden:/data/), while volumes create a specific place within Docker’s own filesystem for the data.
Although this tool is designed for volumes, it might still work with bind mounts if the backup container can access the data directory. You would need to modify the volume line in the Docker Compose file for the backup tool to point to the directory where your bind mount is located, i.e., to point it to your local ./vaultwarden directory.
So, you might want to adjust your docker-compose.yml file like this:
services:
vaultwarden-backup:
image: ttionya/vaultwarden-backup:latest
container_name: vaultwarden-backup
environment:
- PUID=1000
- PGID=1000
- BACKUP_INTERVAL=12h
- PRUNE_BACKUPS=7D
volumes:
- ./vaultwarden:/vaultwarden:ro
- ./backups:/backups
restart: unless-stopped
In this configuration, ./vaultwarden:/vaultwarden:ro line is the key. It mounts your local ./vaultwarden directory to /vaultwarden inside the backup container (readonly mode), which should allow the backup tool to access the data.

A few years back, I moved into an old farmhouse in the countryside. It was peaceful, except for the noises that would come from the attic every night, a soft thumping like someone walking around. After a couple of sleepless nights, I finally mustered the courage to check it out.
I climbed up to the attic with a flashlight. It was full of dusty old furniture and trinkets, probably from previous tenants. As I was examining a pile of old newspapers, my flashlight caught something - a pair of eyes glowing in the dark, staring right back at me. I nearly dropped the flashlight in shock. As I shone the light in the direction, I found an old portrait of a woman. The eyes were eerily lifelike. I convinced myself it was just the way the light was hitting it.
The noises didn’t stop, but I learned to live with them. But the weirdest part was when I left the house a 6 months later. The movers came to get my stuff, and I told them to leave everything in the attic, I’d Grabe those items myself. I mainly needed movers for the big heavy stuff. Later, when I returned to pick up some remaining items, the portrait was gone.
To this day, I still can’t figure out where it could have gone, why just that. Probably some completely logical explanation, but it still gives me chills when I think about it.

Hmm. If it needs to be live, something like red pill media may have japanese content.
I have a similar problem wanting to watch Dutch and German TV. I just gave in and found a couple of good Usenet indexers for each Language, and just host a plex media library for both. With a radarr container for each language.

Lemmy is a federated social network, similar to Mastodon, where anyone can create and run their own instance. This means it's not centrally controlled by one entity. The reasons for having many instances include:
1. Decentralization: This reduces the power of any single entity over the entire network and prevents any central point of failure. If one instance goes down, others are unaffected. This design also helps resist censorship because content moderation is handled individually by each instance.
2. Community autonomy: Each instance can form its own unique community with its own rules and norms. This can promote diversity of thought and freedom of expression, as different communities can have different standards and policies.
3. Privacy and security: Having separate instances can provide a higher degree of privacy and security. The admin of an instance only has access to data from their instance, not the entire network.
Regarding the concern of popular instances becoming like Reddit, it's worth noting that decentralization inherently provides a counterbalance. If an instance becomes too dominant or its policies become unpopular, users can migrate to or create a new instance. In the end, the federated nature of Lemmy allows for a much more democratic and user-driven online community.

Just show edit history. For titles and comments. This happened a lot on Reddit when I was moderating there. Someone would write an abusive, or doxing comment etc. comment would be removed. They’d edit the comment the complain about it being removed.
Only work around we had was to screenshot comments when removing them.
Seeing edit history would be great. could even give mods the ability to revert, if worried about advertising. Or just if someone does it. Remove it. Ban them. Whatever. But as of now, you’d have no way of knowing.

You seem on top of everything. No red flags when I look at what you are considering. Any will do great.
The Topnton i3-n305 Mini PC is a good choice. Intel NUC is another solid option, especially when used with a RAID enclosure for storage. Remember cooling is crucial for these devices, particularly if they'll be housed in a small space. The importance of a good cooling solution cannot be overemphasized.
As for the operating system, Ubuntu is user-friendly and well-supported. You can run your desired applications like Plex or Jellyfin for media serving, qBittorrent, Sonarr, Radarr for torrenting, Wireguard for VPN, AdGuard or PiHole for ad-blocking, and Home Assistant for home automation, all on Linux. For managing these services, consider using Docker. It can help keep your system organized and simplify the process of updating. If you’re currently using them in a nas, you’re probably doing so already. But take the opportunity to clean things up, and if you’re not doing so already, use docker compose.
Foe backups, rsync can be used for local backups and Rclone for backing up to the cloud.

Sometimes, it's surprising how life unfolds. I remember back in my second year at boarding school, we were all set to return for another term, standing on the train station platform. Fooling around, we missed the train.
With no other options and perhaps a bit of youthful audacity, we took dads old ford and we ended up driving it all the way to school.
The car broke down, we almost got caught. Then crazily, we crashed into a famous tree on campus.
However, as wild as that was, missing that train might just have saved us.
We later found out that the Chamber of Secrets had been opened around the time we were meant to be on that train. A deadly monster, a Basilisk, was slithering around the castle, able to kill just by meeting your gaze.
Who’s to say we wouldn’t have bumped into it, had we made that train? With our track record of stumbling into trouble, it seems more than likely. It’s a chilling thought.

Does anyone else find absolute silence difficult to deal with? In particular difficult to sleep in complete silence? I think it started from a young age, being obsessed with music. Falling asleep with music. As an adult, I still struggle with this and need some form of audio to drift off, be it music or something else. More recently, I find stand-up comedy works best - it's light-hearted and doesn't require too much thought.
How often do you brush your teeth? Sure, we’ve all been told the ‘twice-a-day’ , but how many of us strictly follow it? Are there any cultures out there with alternative practices that still maintain good oral health?

Greetings fellow researchers of truth, I have been diving into the peculiar phenomenon known as sleep paralysis, an intriguing state of consciousness marked by an inability to move or speak during the transition between sleep and wakefulness. This frightening event has been brushed off by the medical community as simply a "sleep disorder," but could there be a more sinister, concealed reality we're not privy to? Traditional explanation of sleep paralysis revolves around the REM (Rapid Eye Movement) sleep cycle, the stage in which most dreaming occurs. Scientific consensus posits that an "error" in transitioning between this cycle and wakefulness leads to sleep paralysis. But, could this "error" be an engineered one? The possibility of psychotronic manipulation during these vulnerable states cannot be ignored. Psychotronics, an umbrella term for technologies that interface directly with the human mind, have been in research since the mid-20th century. DARPA's alleged Project Pandora, or the Soviet Union's exploration into psychotronic weaponry, are testament to this interest. While these projects' existence is contested, we have credible reasons to think that this technology has significantly advanced, covertly. Could sleep paralysis be an inadvertent byproduct of these psychotronic control attempts? The symptoms align intriguingly well. The reported feelings of pressure on the chest, the vivid hallucinations, the terrifying sensation of a presence – all these could plausibly be attributed to an external force meddling with our REM sleep, causing our conscious mind to partially awaken and perceive this manipulation. Additionally, many sleep paralysis sufferers report increased occurrences during periods of stress or drastic changes in sleep schedule. Is it possible that these conditions make our brainwaves more susceptible to this psychotronic influence? While the scientific community dismisses sleep paralysis as a harmless, albeit terrifying, anomaly of the sleep cycle, we should not overlook the potential implications. Could these sleep disturbances be early warnings of a larger, clandestine operation aiming to control or influence human behavior? The world is rapidly progressing in neuroscience and technological innovation. It's prudent for us to question how these advancements are being employed. In the age of mass surveillance, psychological warfare, and AI domination, sleep paralysis could be another piece in the grand puzzle of mind control mechanisms. Keep questioning, keep exploring. There are truths yet to be uncovered.
Google Maps is undoubtedly a marvel of modern technology, granting its users the ability to explore nearly every corner of the globe in just a few clicks. However, not all places are readily visible on this platform. There are certain spots that have been deliberately blurred or hidden, raising an air of mystery around them. Here are five such enigmatic locales... **1. An Oddity in the Siberian Wilderness, Russia**  The expansive forests of Northern Russia, renowned for their strange and inexplicable phenomena, are ordinarily not a common subject for Google Maps viewers. However, there's an anomaly that can't be overlooked - an area deep within the Siberian wilderness that seems to have been artificially modified. Upon closer examination, it's clear that the geographical features are mismatched, as if borrowed from a different region. What could be the reason behind this digital camouflage? **2. Enigma at Junction Ranch, CA**  Located in California's Mohave Desert, Junction Ranch is home to an unexplained airstrip. Some speculate it to be part of the China Lake proving grounds, a well-known air force drone testing site. The mystery doesn't stop there, though. On Google Maps, certain sections of the base appear to be deliberately scratched out, revealing only fragments of the whole picture. What could be the hidden truth behind these digital alterations? **3. The Mystery of Sandy Island**  Sandy Island, a place first charted by Captain Cook in the late 18th century during his Australian expeditions, has a peculiar presence on Google Maps. Despite being a familiar landmark for over two centuries, the region where it's believed to be located is inexplicably blurred on the map. What could be the secret behind this incongruity? **4. Thule Air Base Enigma, Greenland**  During the heights of the Cold War, Thule Air Base in Greenland was a pivotal strategic location, witnessing B-52 bombers carrying nuclear payloads on a routine basis as a counter-measure against potential Soviet aggression. In 1968, a catastrophic accident occurred, leading to a nuclear weapon crash that allegedly released substantial amounts of radiation. This crash site remains obscured on Google Maps to this day. **5. The Blacked-out Peak of Kangtega, Nepal**  Located in the majestic Himalayas, Kangtega stands as an enigma on Google Maps. The entire area is blanketed in digital darkness, spurring theories ranging from secret military installations to extraterrestrial activities. Unless one is willing to endure the grueling 22,000-foot ascent, the reality behind this peculiar blackout may forever remain a mystery. These unexplained anomalies truly spark curiosity. Is Google Maps collaborating with some secretive entities to keep these sites hidden, or could there be an entirely different explanation?

Edit: Side note - in the absence of B&J, what ice cream are you turning to? I’m in AUS. So B&J was a game changer. Not anything else like it that I’m aware of.

I’m curious, does anybody else sit down in the shower. (That’s right not a typo. Sitters, not shitters) This started for me when I was younger, usually when I was nursing a gnarly hangover. The warm water beating down on me was a solace and sitting just made it feel all the more comforting. Though I’m sure it’s not the most hygienic. Over the years, it's evolved into a ritual, now my preferred way to unwind and relax. So much so, I’m building a concrete bench seat in the shower, with a custom shower head above it, as part of our bathroom renovations. (Similar to the pic) I'm curious if anyone else has a similar routine. Do you find it therapeutic too? Any particular reason why you started? 
Based on the comments of another community member here, I've been recently drawn into a compelling hypothesis that radically opposes our textbook understanding of human origin and evolution. This traces its origin back to the intriguing work of environmentalist Ellis Silver, specifically his book, "Humans are not from Earth." In his groundbreaking work, Silver casts humanity in an unusual light, suggesting that we are not the native inhabitants of Earth we believe ourselves to be. Instead, he proposes that we are descendants of a distant extraterrestrial civilization that was banished to this planet, transforming Earth into a form of cosmic Alcatraz. Silver's hypothesis relies heavily on several unique quirks and ailments that are surprisingly prevalent in humans. These peculiarities have led him to question whether we are indeed as 'native' to this planet as we assume. Here are some of the crucial points he raises: **1. Chronic Backaches**: One of Silver's arguments points to the widespread issue of backaches in humans, which he attributes to our upright posture in an environment with a gravitational pull that could be higher than where we originally evolved. He hypothesizes that our skeletal structure might have adapted to a lower gravity environment, leading to various back-related issues when confronted with Earth's stronger gravitational pull. **2. Sun Sensitivity**: He also comments on the human susceptibility to sunburn, highlighting how our eyes are less adapted to bright light compared to other species. This could imply that we may have originated from a planet with a dimmer sun. **3. Chronic Illnesses**: Silver notes the high prevalence of chronic disease among humans compared to other animals. He speculates that this could indicate our biology is not fully adapted to this environment, hinting at an extraterrestrial origin. **4. Discomfort with Natural Foods**: Silver remarks on our apparent need for extensively processed and cooked foods, which is unlike any other species on Earth. This, he argues, might be another sign of our 'alien' nature. These are intriguing points, and while the mainstream scientific community has not embraced Silver's hypothesis, it's interesting to explore. Furthermore, Silver's idea is not the only hypothesis that suggests an 'alien' origin for humanity. The author Zecharia Sitchin proposed based on his interpretations of ancient Sumerian texts, that humans might be a genetically engineered species. Created by the Anunnaki, a supposed race of extraterrestrials, to work as slaves. Silver's hypothesis, while challenging the scientific consensus, forces us to confront some existential questions. If Earth is indeed a cosmic penal colony, who are our wardens? Could an advanced civilization be observing our progress from a distance? Is our relentless drive towards space exploration a manifestation of our innate desire to return home? It's essential to remember that our understanding of the universe is continually evolving. What we regard as outlandish speculation today could be the accepted truth of tomorrow. So, share your thoughts. Even if we do not find answers, the questions we ask might bring us closer to understanding our place in this vast cosmic arena.
First off, let me start by saying I'm a big proponent of donations as a means of supporting platforms like Lemmy, and their hosts. This approach, when carried out in the spirit of transparency and community engagement, can do wonders for the growth and sustainability. Hosting an instance myself, I’m fully aware of the costs associated with running servers, handling traffic, and providing the best possible experience for users. I am Lucky that im in a position where right now I am able to wear that coat, but I am more than willing to financially support other instances where I find value (and I have), and I have no doubt many of you feel the same way. But while we're on this topic, I think it's important to talk about financial transparency. As users, we entrust these platforms with our time, our discussions, and in the case of donations, our hard-earned money. I believe it's fair to ask for a little insight into how our contributions are being used. What proportion goes towards server costs, maintenance, development,staffing, or perhaps even community projects? My hope is for Lemmy instances to set a precedent by adopting an 'open book' policy when it comes to spending. It would be a great step towards fostering trust and engagement in our community. There are plenty of platforms out there which handle donations, but I wonder if there's one that already facilitates such transparency? If not, I believe it would be a worthy endeavor to find or create one that does. Would you appreciate more transparency on how donations are spent? And do you know of any donation platforms that encourage this level of openness? Your feedback is always appreciated, as at some point, I may need to do the same.
I continuously grapple with this intricate web of thought that intertwines infinity, atomic structure, and consciousness. It's predicated on the assumption that if time truly is infinite, then there isn't just a probability, but an inevitability, that all the matter in the universe will align exactly as they are now. (I posted this over at [c/stonerthoughts](https://lemmyunchained.net/post/6149), where it will inevitably die without a single interaction, but this is an ongoing pervasive thought I have, and i just wanted to put it out there for more eyes to see.) This possibility stems from the Poincaré recurrence theorem, a principle in mathematics and physics which suggests that certain systems will, given a sufficiently long but finite time, return to a state almost identical to their initial state. Now, if we consider the universe to be such a system, it implies that given infinite time, every atomic configuration that has ever occurred will inevitably reoccur. Now, let's venture deeper. If our consciousness is an emergent property of a specific atomic arrangement, then the recurrence of that atomic arrangement implies the recurrence of that conscious experience. Hence, if we're bound to this specific arrangement of matter, and time is infinite, are we not then destined to relive this conscious experience an infinite number of times? The implications are staggering. It suggests a form of cosmic reincarnation, a cyclic existence governed not by spiritual dogma but by the immutable laws of the universe. My next step is trying to figure out how this concept could integrate with the theory of an afterlife. Also the infinite nature of the individuals conscience, being the observer and therefore the centre of their own universe. What's your take on this perspective? How does it change your understanding of consciousness, existence, and our role within this infinite cosmic dance? [- !stonerthoughts@lemmyunchained.net](https://lemmyunchained.net/c/stonerthoughts)
The theory posits that the Amazon Rainforest, a veritable tapestry of biodiversity and a symbol of untrammeled nature, may in fact be a monumental testament to ancient human ingenuity and environmental stewardship. At first glance, this notion may seem a stretch. After all, the Amazon is often depicted as a pristine, 'untouched' wilderness. However, an ever-growing body of evidence points to extensive human influence over the millennia, suggesting that much of what we consider 'wild' might be more accurately described as a managed environment, cultivated by the region's indigenous inhabitants. Central to this theory is the observation that the Amazon Rainforest is curiously abundant in plant species of direct benefit to humans. The forest teems with trees bearing edible fruits, medicinal herbs, and other useful plants, often clustered together as if intentionally arranged. Could such a beneficially skewed biodiversity truly be a random act of nature, or might it be the result of deliberate, sophisticated botanical manipulation over generations?  Further support comes from the discovery of vast swathes of terra preta, or 'dark earth,' across the Amazon Basin. This nutrient-rich soil, markedly different from the region's naturally infertile soil, is widely believed to be a product of sophisticated pre-Columbian agriculture. The terra preta zones, often teeming with beneficial plant species, seem to signal a long history of human intervention, possibly reshaping the forest into a vast, managed 'garden.'  The imprints of complex civilizations uncovered by archeologists lend more weight to this theory. These remnants of pre-Columbian settlements, often found near areas rich in beneficial plant species, include elaborate road systems, intricately designed moats, and evidence of sizeable, organized human communities. These signs point towards a highly populated and interconnected Amazon, starkly contrasting the 'untouched wilderness' narrative. 'Forest islands' - small, elevated forest patches within the otherwise swampy Amazon wetlands - offer additional intrigue. Recent research links these islands to human habitation and cultivation, suggesting that ancient inhabitants might have intentionally engineered these ecological niches.  The implications of the Amazon as a largely man-made environment are profound, revolutionizing our understanding of human-nature interactions and sustainable land management. If we accept that this lush landscape is not merely a product of natural processes but also of human intervention, our approach to its preservation must be similarly nuanced. So, where do you stand on this thought-provoking issue? Could the Amazon Rainforest, in all its splendor, be the world's oldest and most extensive example of sustainable human landscaping? How should this potential reality shape our approach to conserving and managing this vital biome?
Half shower thought, half [stoner thought](https://lemmyunchained.net/c/stonerthoughts). It may seem obvious, but I was dwelling on the point for a while, deeper and deeper. We exist in a symbiotic relationship with nature, a sort of balanced trade of breaths. Trees release oxygen which we breathe in to survive, and in return, we release carbon dioxide that fuels their photosynthesis. In this manner, we are locked in a reciprocal, almost parasitic yet mutually beneficial relationship with nature. We are entwined in an unending dance with the natural world, each sustaining the one other. ✌️💛
