Starts to feel like a wave of this kind of BS is hitting the world.

Says the one who doesn’t eat at all 😭

I’m tempted to try this. Especially because 68kg is literally my weight. I could gain a couple of kilos…

Intention to have slightly better visibility from the self-hosted crowd and I’m interested in more general feedback on this too.

Hey everyone! I’m trying to find a solution to a really confusing problem…

I have the following simple nginx docker compose configuration on my Fedora home server that I can run without issue on my uid 1000 user, lets call this user “userA”.

services:
  nginx:
    container_name: nginx-alt
    image: docker.io/library/nginx
    restart: unless-stopped
    ports:
      - 8181:80

This exposes internal port 80 as 8181 and can be accessed in a lan in the expected matter.

However, for security reasons, I want to actually host this service eventually on a completely different user with less permissions. Let’s call this user “userB” who has a very limited scope of the file system. This is to prevent potential escaping of the rootless container causing major file system havoc (i.e. reduce the scope of the user to a very limited network of containers.)

The problem is really simple: For some reason, when userB runs this service (uid 1001), the nginx service suddenly complains about privileges. As a result, I get a “Forbidden 403” error when hosting. Turning off selinux has no affect (so setenforce 0 does nothing, meaning I can rule out secure linux interruption.)

The errors look like the following:

nginx-alt  | 2026/09/04 20:03:34 [error] 25#25: *1 "/usr/share/nginx/html/index.html" is forbidden (13: Permission denied), client: xx.xx.x.x, server: localhost, request: "GET / HTTP/1.1", host: "xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:8181"
nginx-alt  | 10.89.0.2 - - [04/Sep/2026:20:03:34 +0000] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 403 153 "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:155.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/155.0" "-"

For what it’s worth, both users should be relatively vanilla and all ports are appropriately exported. There shouldn’t be anything, for example, that is making userA run as “privileged” over the other users and podman should be running rootless in both containers.

I did see a note on the nginx image about running in rootless that I might try, but it doesn’t solve my bigger issue here which is the lack of consistency between the two users. Additionally, userns_mode: keep-ids only caused the container to fail to boot for other reason entirely.

There must be something fundamentally wrong with my configuration of my system. Has anyone had any experience running two podman containers on two different users simultaneously that can provide feedback?

Obviously, I’m not trying to run just an nginx server, but I found this to be the easiest configuration to reproduce.

Xcancel doesn’t work again, I posted the whole tweet here so you don’t have to open twitter.

the tweet only mentions Israel, but in reality all country names were removed like the Japanese raw, only the manga has the real names

United States changed to MAG Union

USSR changed to Volgarena, this name is directly inspired by the Volga River

Israel changed to Ghorantl (or Guranto), made-up word combining “Golan Heights” with “Toru” (to seize).

Syria changed to Mesamia, inspired by Mesopotamia

The mention of Israel in the Latin Spanish dub of The Ghost in the Shell (2026) has been removed…

A few days ago, a clip from the Latin Spanish dub went viral, where Israel was mentioned directly. Fans pointed out that this version was the only one that kept this reference present in the manga, while other versions, including the Japanese one, mentioned the fictional country Ghorantl.

However, after the clip went viral, the dub would have been modified. Now, instead of mentioning Israel directly, expressions like “they” and “other nations” are used.

What do you all think?

I love my little rg280 ❤️ maybe I love you too!

Source is Int, found post here (beware, Facebook 🤮)

I’ve now managed to get the stream of my HiWatch Series, model HWI- T641H-Z 2.8-12 mm by accessing via browser to rtsp://USERNAME:PASSWORD@192.168.30.50:554/Streaming/Channels/101. Working nice. But on its own, very unusful unless I get storage and image detection going. So, I need something like Frigate.

I believe the Frigate docs suggest running in a docker container installed on a VM. Very convienient as I have Proxmox (installed on a optiples 7070 micropc with 32MB ram) running a VM on which i have a few containers. The idea is to mount a “frigate” dataset created on my Truenas server on Proxmox which is then mounted to the VM. Lots of layers but hoping it should be ok.

I heard that the Google Coral TPU is not sold anymore. Is this going to be a problem for Frigate image recognition? Are there alternatives to the Coral TPU?

If you watched the the show for Re zero you wouldn’t see what I’m talking about but it extremely clear in the web novel that Subaru is just a trans woman.

I plan on making a detailed post about this later and even a youtube video but just as a small thing;

in the very first volume of the web novel Subaru rants about how he misses being a kid because of how feminine he was, his long hair made everyone treat him like a girl and he then explicitly says that this was before puberty ruined his life.

then later when we get his back story its explained that he started high school cross dressing felt like his “real self” for the first time and was happy until his voice outted him as cross dressing.

His tragic back story is literally male puberty.

Im saying this mostly because how Subaru is written becomes really sad when you read some of ther Q and A stuff the author is on record saying.

Tappie the author of re zero was be on record saying (and this is paraphrased “I wrote Emila to be naive and child like because to me childhood and innocence represents people being their true selves, after puberty people are forced to give up their true selves to fit into society and this goes doubly so for men its my to me the ultimate expression of being who you really are can only be experienced by women”

“Subaru cross dressing has nothing to do with them being gay, Cross dressing is a normal thing guys like doing Subaru is just really good at it, their wont be any lgbt relationships or characters in re zero”

Like I understand this might just be a thing where it sound way worse because this is not the original japanese but just the general idea is still crazy.

All this added with the fact that his two biggest projects are pretty on the nose representations of dysphoria especially VIVI and them writting only female protaganists outside of subaru who himself is constantly said to be more like his mom than his dad.

i dont know it just feels like so many japanese mangaka are have these half way to being trans characters

What I have

I have an old Acer Aspire A515-51G and I also have a desire to have a home server. In combination this creates a need for the laptop to carry more HDDs than it can from factory. Usually it can take one M.2 SSD and one 2.5" SATA drive.

What I want

I want to make the laptop able to run at least 4 HDDs in RAID 5 for storage and have one SSD as boot drive.

What I did

The buying phase

• 4 HDDs
• M.2 to SATA adapter
• 12V/5V SATA power converter
• 12V 10A power supply

The designing phase

I needed space to hold the HDDs, so I designed a 3D printed a cage to attach to the bottom of my laptop. Two 80mm fans can be attach to it. You can see it on printables. Also I remixed a tray (here is the original) so the HDDs can slide in and out of the cage.

.

The assembly phase

A cutout at the bottom of the laptop was needed to give access to the SATA ports of the adapter.

I put a 2.5" SSD into the already present place for it in the laptop.

Then the cage was attached to the laptop, the HDDs were put in their trays, the trays inside the cage and the cables attached to the adapter and HDDs.

Discussions

• Lobsters;
• Hacker News.

The results of the Debian general-resolution vote on the use of large language models have been posted; the winner is choice 5: Responsible Use of Generative AI.

Responsible Use of Generative AI

Text of proposal:

Using its power under Constitution section 4.1 (5), the project issues the following statement describing its current position on AI-assisted contributions. This statement describes the position of the project at the time it is adopted. That position may evolve as time passes without the need to resort to future general resolutions. The GR process remains available if the project needs a decision and cannot come to a consensus.

Debian neither endorses nor prohibits the use of generative AI tools in the development, maintenance, or documentation of software, packaging, documentation, and other media published within the Debian Project. We recognize that such tools can substantially improve the productivity of contributors when used responsibly, allowing volunteers to spend more of their limited time on work that requires technical expertise, judgment, review, and collaboration.

The Debian Project nevertheless expects that all contributions submitted to Debian, regardless of how and with which tools they were produced, satisfy the same standards of quality, correctness, maintainability, and legal compliance. The use of a generative AI tool does not diminish the contributor’s responsibility for the work they submit. Contributors are expected to understand, review, test, and, where appropriate, modify AI-assisted output before incorporating it into Debian. Blindly accepting or uploading AI-generated material without appropriate human review is inconsistent with Debian’s established development practices. We enourage our contributors to disclose whether a contribution was made with AI assitance, but do not require them to do so.

Debian acknowledges that the legal status of material produced by generative AI systems remains the subject of ongoing discussion in many jurisdictions, including questions relating to copyright, authorship, licensing, and potential reproduction of training material. The Project does not seek to resolve these unsettled legal questions through this General Resolution, nor does it adopt a position on whether AI-generated output is, in whole or in part, copyrightable or derived from copyrighted works.

Instead, Debian continues to rely on the judgment and responsibility of its individual contributors. Project members are expected to exercise appropriate care when using generative AI tools, to consider the provenance and licensing implications of material they contribute, and to avoid introducing content whose legal status they cannot reasonably justify. Existing Debian policies governing licensing, copyright, software freedom, and the acceptance of contributions continue to apply irrespective of the tools used to produce those contributions.

Contributors are expected to exercise appropriate care when designing and implementing workflows that incorporate generative AI tools. In particular, they should ensure that confidential information, private communications, security-sensitive information (such as embargoed information about security bugs that is not yet public), cryptographic keys, credentials, and other non-public material relating to the Debian Project, its infrastructure, or its community are not disclosed to third-party AI services unless such disclosure has been explicitly authorized and is consistent with Debian’s security and privacy requirements.

The use of generative AI does not alter Debian’s established expectations regarding large-scale or automated project actions. Contributors intending to perform actions with broad project impact, such as mass bug filing or patch submission, large-scale code modifications, or other automated changes or requests affecting many packages or contributors, should seek prior discussion and consensus through the appropriate project channels before proceeding. Any such automated process should be overseen by a human who remains accountable for its behavior and output.

This resolution therefore affirms that generative AI is neither exempt from nor subject to special rules beyond the standards already expected of Debian contributors. The responsibility for every contribution rests with the contributor who submits it, who remains accountable for its technical quality, legal acceptability, and suitability for inclusion in Debian.

Ramble your interests at me, yo. I love to hear it

Hi there my dear people of r/selfhosted! Fresh bunch of Dawarich news is due, make yourself comfortable :) To whom it may concern, Dawarich — is your (is and always will be) a free open source self-hostable alternative to Google Timeline.

Nine releases, what a month! And not a puny ones, this time we managed to speedrocket Dawarich performance in browser. If you have hundreds of thousands (or even millions!) of points and you’d love to see them all on the map, previously that would be not an easy task for Dawarich. It would crash your browser, as many times as you try loading the data. But no more! Our very own community member, the man behind the Docker image we’re using to run Photon, Robin (github.com/rtuszik) suggested a fresh approach to loading points: just render them as map tiles! Together we brought this idea to life and now my own dataset consisting of 957,350 geo points gets loaded in less than 1 second! That’s kinda insane to me, to be honest. And yeah, instead of ~590MB of JSON transferred to your browser, it took uhhh 150KB? Just don’t forget to enable the toggle in the map settings.

---

If you want to drag your points, do disable it though, seamless points editing will be added bit later. Oh, and tracks are being now served in the same manner, too. And routes, and fog of war layers. It’s all a lot faster now! Dawarich now speaks 6 languages! German, Spanish, French, Polish and Catalan were added to the default English. Simplified Chinese is on the way, and feel free to suggest your own locales :) You can change it in Settings -> General

---

Visit detection was rebuilt from scratch and it’s finally useful. God knows I procrastinated this feature long enough, but now it’s in a very good shape. Suggests real places I visited, and community members are also confirming it’s not just me — for them it also yielded very relevant results. By the way, you’ll no longer see the annoying “99+” counter of the visits on your timeline button. We all hated the feeling of an unfinished job but let’s be real ain’t nobody got time to click all the suggested visits. Now they are just there, without the irritating counter, sitting patiently, waiting for you to delete them or… just let them be. They are precise enough now, after all, so why not, right?

Deleting a visit also leaves an invisible tombstone now, so the visit won’t be resuggested again. And the Timeline panel got much cleaner. I’m still not entirely satisfied with its state, so some changes are due, I want smoother UX.

By the way, one of former Dawarich user mentioned something like we’re making the Timeline “less and less useful with each release”, so here I’d like to use the opportunity and ask you guys, do you share same feeling? What’s good about Timeline, what’s not so good? I’d love it to be as useful and convenient as possible, so your feedback is very important. Thank you!

Transportation modes, also rebuilt. This one is a lot trickier and even Google itself fails to properly attribute the way a human being moved (suggesting driving over train ride for example), but it’s still got significantly more reliable. I have some cool work ahead of me to make it even better, but that’s a secret.

---

Videos are finally here! God I love videos. The Video Studio first was released as a free tool on our website (dawarich.app/tools/route-video-maker/), and then I added it to Dawarich itself, which makes it easier to use your own routes to create a video.

Check it out!

And here’s an actual video produced by Dawarich Video Studio: youtube.com/shorts/mEUe4RktKSg

Also, the “Share” button on the map page now also has a way for you to create and share a poster or a video. Your memories were never more material!

Rendering is being done in your browser, and it allowed me to not cram another backend service into the Dawarich stack, neat.

---

Map v1 (Leaflet) is gone. I’m surprised nobody really complained about it. I’ll take it as a sign that Maplibre version is a lot better!

---

Geocoding settings are now available in Settings->Integrations, with selection of providers supported by Dawarich and appropriate settings available for them. The ENV vars are still there and take precedence over what’s configured in the UI, so no breaking changes.

---

Imports got smarter:

• Google Takeout & Polarsteps now extract visits, named places, tracks and the source app’s tication — not just raw GPS points. Google’s own place names (Home, Work…) are kept. Older imports: “Extract additional data” in the Imports list. “Remove extracted data” undoes it without touching your points.
• FIT files with developer data fields (Wahoo devices) now import instead of failing to parse
• Traccar KML exports now import LineString points instead of finishing with zero.
• Google Timeline: fixed altitude/accuracy/speed being silently dropped from rawSignals, and estamps no longer scramble path order.
• Imports finishing with zero saved points now tell you instead of completing silently.
• Tracks no longer stitch two different devices together (Records.json contains every device

---

Tracks calculation got a lot smarter: fewer skims along the route, better anomaly points detection, better distinction between different devices tracking simultaneously, hence stats distance calculation now has better precision.

---

Preparation work is being done for the Family feature coming to our mobile apps. We’re currently testing it internally and are hoping to release it there soon. Also, OwnTracks’ HTTP mode now can show your family members in the app: every upload is answered witveryone sharing with you.

---

Database optimisation works are also in progress: most of the August releases are containing some changes to how Dawarich writes and serves your data, it may lead to bigger space consumption. In the end, when the process is done (hopefully before end of September), I’ll provide an instruction on how to shrink your databases with no data loss. If you’d like to do it now — do the full vacuum to the points table. For the rest of you — please wait for the next post or keep an eye on our changelogs, it will be there.

⚠️ If you’re upgrading from 1.10.x, do these once

• Restart the app after migrations have run — until then, deleting a visit looks like it worked without saving.
• Settings -> Visits -> re-detect (self-hosted does this fleet-wide automatically; SKIP_VISITS_FLEET_REDETECT=1 to opt out).
• Map settings -> Transportation Mode Detection → "Re-classify my history."
• Map v2 -> Settings -> “Recalculate tracks & stats” to apply the gap-distance fix to past months.
• Expect background backfills to run for a while on big histories. Progress is under Background jobs settings.

---

Mobile app UI was updated! It now includes better navigation between days, you can select date range to show your data, and you can also replay your day on the map. We added new layers: points and heatmap, more to follow.

If you’re hosting Dawarich behind cloudflared or similar gateway, you can now benefit from custom HTTP headers to connect your mobile app to your Dawarich instance.

We added Smart Tracking mode for Android and Continuous Tracking mode for iOS. Enable precise tracking mode to see the toggle. Both modes use motion-aware updates to toggle tracking on and off to save your battery life.

P.S. 1st of October I’ll be speaking at Berlin’s Geomob event ( thegeomob.com ) come and say hi!

See y’all soon!

For context:

On August 26, 2026, the U.S. Department of the Treasury, through OFAC (Office of Foreign Assets Control – the authority responsible for managing and enforcing economic and financial sanctions) sanctioned Autistici/Inventati (A/I), an Italian collective that has been providing digital infrastructure – email, hosting, mailing lists, chat, videoconferencing, streaming, and services related to privacy and anonymity – to movements and activists since 2001. Washington designated it as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT), alleging that it has provided financial, material or technological support to terrorism and to organizations already subjected to sanctions. A/I rejects the allegations and declares that its activities consist in providing tools for digital self-defence and infrastructure for the freedom of communication.

On August 28 the autistici.org web domain was found to be unreachable. The collective attributed the problem to the DNS level and to the .org domain registry, Public Interest Registry (PIR). This technical point is important: it does not necessarily mean that the server was shut down; a domain can be made unreachable by preventing the normal DNS publication or resolution. Technical findings indicated a serverHold status for the domain (see below, “10. The blocking of autistici.org: facts and attributions”). The exact cause and the formal chain of decision-making must be however distinguished from the collective’s inferences: there is no public statement from PIR explicitly saying that it acted on OFAC’s orders.

What is EU Inc.? The European Commission proposal aims to make it easier to start, grow and expand a business across the EU with simpler rules, digital registration and fewer barriers.

Backed by the European Commission under President Ursula von der Leyen, EU Inc. could allow companies to register within 48 hours for less than €100, attract investment more easily and operate across the EU under a more standardised framework, while national tax, labour and social rules continue to apply.
