  • Mom was 18, Dad 20 when they had my brother.
    Mom was 20,Dad was 22 when they had me.

    Mom was a narcissist, dad a weakling so no standing up for himself or the kids.
    They lived as teens/tweens and had no handle on life nor how to raise kids.
    One set of awesome grandparents, one set that severed contact with me and my brother 3 times.
    I tried to kill myself at 13.

    Dad severed contacts with me and my brother twice.

    Mom got alzheimer at 58 and died soon after, was not allowed to attend funeral.

    All in all I like my current life and have a great partner and two lovely kids. Awesome group of friends as well.

    They should have never met, never have kids and certainly not at that age. It fucked me up something fierce.



  • Yep, you can. Came as a surprise to me as well at the time but you definitely can.

    You probably got this already if you look ta the Tesseract page and how this all works but I wanted to share with you my docker-compose file to give you an idea how I did it. I find it helpful to look at examples of others sometimes.

    Good luck!

  • So always assume some piece of knowledge is not obvious for someone out there and share

    You just described a thing of mine I cannot help but do; explain the ever loving crap out of things
    I need to be careful with that though as relatives start to complain and push back on me telling things over and over.
    Thing is, until I see a full comprehension on the other side on what I try to convey I just keep explaining in variations, keep finding metaphors and keep pestering you until you ‘get it’. Some say it is a virtue, some say it is a hindrance.

    I have had therapy on this… 😂


  • I use NPM in a docker container. It could not be easier in my opinion but then again, I did not use any of the alternatives so I might be missing out on something, who knows. I did manage a couple of proxy servers in the past based on Apache and I can tell you that NPM is much easier and logical to me than that.

    Just create a compose file and start it. Create DNS records pointing to your NPM IP address/exposed IP and make a host in NPM sending traffic to the right container IP:port. The compose file is super simple, could not be easier. Here’s mine for example:

    services:
      nginx-proxy-manager:
        container_name: nginx-proxy-manager
        image: 'jc21/nginx-proxy-manager:latest'
        restart: always
        ports:
          - '80:80'
          - '443:443'
        volumes:
          - ./data:/data
          - ./letsencrypt:/etc/letsencrypt
    
    

    I just make sure ports 443 and 80 are exposed on my router so DNS records can point to that IP adrdess. All traffic on port 80 gets re-routed to 443.

    I’m probably stating all the obvious things here 😀



  • I just don’t think this is all due to hippies in the 60s. 🤷‍♂️

    I am sad and disappointed you failed to grasp what I meant in my diatribe of a post and keep pointing to hippies. I knew the moment I typed that word, bam, it would be someones focal point. So this one is on me, mea culpa. Now please, pretty please with cherries on top, stop referring to hippies as being the center point of my argument. You could not distill this from my post, again my mistake, but if you continue referring to hippies as my argument then that is from now on on you.

    Have a good one.
