  • Fine, I’ll be the low bar.

    Proxmox, I just use the GUI to update

    I use community-scripts almost exclusively. Community-scripts cron lxc updater does the heavy lifting. pct enter [lxc]

    update

    does a bunch of work too.

    For Docker, I use a couple lxcs with Dockge on it, the “update” button takes me most of the rest of the way.

    Finally, I have a couple remote machines [diet-pi]. I haven’t figured out updating over tailscale yet, so I just go round semi frequently for the apt update && apt upgrade -y

    VMs get the apt update && apt upgrade -y too. I keep a bare bones mint VM as a virtual laptop, as I don’t have one. I’ll do what I need to do and if I had to install software I’ll just nuke the VM and go again from the bare bones template.







  • Enrichment. Take up a creative hobby. You don’t have to be good, just be creating stuff you want to create.

    Music, food, plants, drawings, sculpture, journal, creative writing, exercise, knitting, flower pressing, dorodangos (literally polishing a ball of dirt). Be building something, you need enrichment. Learn to sing/instrument. Start a sourdough starter (why did sourdough become popular when we locked indoors? Enrichment). Get some pencils and scrap book. Start a indoor/outdoor garden.

    Pick something appropriate to your time/budget. Time rich, money poor: pick something you can fuss over for a long time and is no more expensive than a pack of pencils. Time poor, money poor: Mediterranean herbs thrive on neglect, start a rosemary plant.




  • The fact that it was legally mandated is good evidence that it is [necessary].

    P1 If X was legally mandated then that is good evidence that X is necessary.

    P2 Slavery was legally mandated (in the USA)

    C1 There is good evidence slavery is necessary.

    P3 [insert other silly/abhorrent thing here: ICE in general, state murder…] was legally mandated.

    C2 There is good evidence silly/abhorrent thing is necessary.

    Personally I’d reject P1, the law isn’t an arbitrator of mortality, or truth. Due to C2 I’d side eye anyone who says it is.
