  • Mainly that I don’t understand how to use containers… or VMs that well… I have and old MyCloud NAS and little pucky PC that I wanted to run simple QoL services on… HomeAssistant, JellyFin etc…

    I got Proxmox installed on it, I can access it… I don’t know what the fuck I’m doing… There was a website that allowed you to just run scripts on shell to install a lot of things… but now none of those work becuase it says my version of Proxmox is wrong (when it’s not?)… so those don’t work…

    And at least VMs are easy(ish) to understand. Fake computer with OS… easy. I’ve built PCs before, I get it… Containers just never want to work, or I don’t understand wtf to do to make them work.

    I wanted to run a Zulip or Rocket.chat for internal messaging around the house (wife and I both work at home, kid does home/virtualschool)… wanted to use a container because a service that simple doesn’t feel like it needs a whole VM… but it won’t work…




  • So it’s you.

    I am well aware that it’s a popular song. I also know that karaoke is about having fun and being a bit cringe. I get all of that, I used to do karaoke all, the, time…

    For you, you’re just kind of visiting… you both think you’re being cutesy and special and unique… to everyone else, hatred. It’s like when someone goes to Guitar Center and thinks they’ll show off how “cool” they are by trying to play “Stairway to Heaven” but to the staff and regulars it’s like the 4th time that day… hatred. Plus everyone there now knows you’re basic, and probably a poser.

    #Evanescence - Bring Me To Life

    Absolutely hate that song. It’s bad enough that it’s the poster child for baby’s first “emo/goth” song. Badly written, overly dramatic, cheesy cringe af… But I hate it for more than that.

    I used to do (nearly) weekly karaoke with friends at the bar. And almost every week, every goddamn week, some “quirky” scene couple on their first date thinks they’ll try to be cute sing a duet together… and everytime, every goddamn time, it’s “Bring me to Life”. And no, they can never sing, it sounds like if gym sneakers had autism.

    Hate that song. Not just me, like, everyone who frequently does karaoke hates that song. Most karaooke DJs don’t even let you pick it, they know what’s up and they’re even more sick of hearing it. I hear that song and I get fucking PTSD flashbacks. The cringe is physically painful.
