I wouldn't say we're afraid. I don't particularly like speaking on the phone though, but it's alright, I even worked call center for a while so it doesn't bother me much these days.

Anyways, essentially texting is just more efficient. I can't speak for everyone else, but for instance at work, I hate it when I have a question or need assistance on a specific topic, ask on my team chat and have a couple of people saying "quick call?".

If it's something really complex, fine... that's fair. Other than that? It's just so inefficient. I can be working on something else and just reply during my off time between tasks, same with whoever I ask help from. Also, most of the time I'm listening to music, or I have my TV with ambience sound on the background. So then I have to turn everything off just so I can go for a 5minute call for something that could be done over chat on the same amount of time.

Sorry this comment turned out way longer than I thought it would.

Impressive, but imo still not as good as No man's Sky redemption.

Can we stop posting political memes?... It's getting annoying.

I wonder if in the future, millennials and gen z will become the new boomers and gen X.

That will make me kinda sad. I just hope we don't go down the same path...

Honestly, having know this I wouldn't have bought D4 in the first place.

It was expensive as fuck for a game that I played a week at most, and got boring. Not saying the game isn't great on some aspects. The story and graphics are amazing but... other than that it's not that interesting late game.

Spending 60€+ on a game that has battle passes and an ingame shop on top of it, for them to add one expansion a year after, yearly? Wtf

It's true what they say. Blizzard has gotten greed af.

This has probably been the last game I will ever buy from them. There are already Diablo 4 private servers, I think I'll just wait until those catch up with those expansions...

Please don't fuck toothbrushes :(

Same. I can't even be in the same room anymore. Somehow made gaming there feel like a chore as well...

So bored of games, that I'll go work on some other stuff (home servers) and just taking care of day to day life stuff. Maybe I'm just growing up, but I never thought I'd be bored of games... Ever...

I still prefer working remotely though!

I'm wondering where I can should post this? Any specific communities?

He actually was on the 1337x comment section defending himself and at a point he said he downloaded it from [Russian website] and only repacked it. He said we could go download it from there if we didn't trust him, but I also got a virus warning from that one...

Change dns provider and it's no longer blocked. Going by you're username we're from the same country :)

Downloaded that torrent, thought it was weird that it triggered my AV. Usually I just assume it's a crack file or something, and even Windows defender will say it's a "game crack" file or something on the threat information.

However, BG3 being released on GoG I found it odd... And it wasn't even detected as a game crack file or wtv it's called. Ended up downloading one uploaded by InsaneRamZes which ALSO was detected by AV...

I've ended up downloading about 4~5 clients to finally find one that didn't trigger it... The amount of trash that was going around is insane.

The one I finally found that doesn't have a virus was from a private tracker. (which was the RUNE release)

Edit: Just checked on 1337x and this one that I had from InsaneRamZes has also been removed it seems. I can't actually find a BG3 full game torrent on there atm... But I did manage to add the tracker to my private tracker's RUNE download so I'll be sharing with you all too 🤝

This reminds me of the "you eat X amount of spiders in your sleep every year". It's also been debunked so many times and I see it popping up from time to time.

Even more ironic, this was created by some professor (?) to prove that starting fake viral facts was easy or something...

WSL and docker (lemmy.ml)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by Waker@lemmy.ml to c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to get WSL and docker to work together. They kinda do at the moment, I installed an image of HomeAssistant but I noticed that I can't connect to it from Windows.

I've used the virtual adapter IP, localhost, 127.0.0.1 but nothing let's me get through it.

I did install debian instead of the default Ubuntu on windows since I've used debian before so I thought why not, and I'm wondering if that's what messed it up. After a quick Google search I found some people with the same issue but apparently this should've been fixed in newer Windows Updates (I think it was fixed back in 2020~2021).

Also, I just want to use WSL because it's easier from Windows imo but mostly just to test things :) I didn't even have anything to put on HAI just testing stuff really.

Edit: someone pointed out that I should use the HA app on windows. That's exactly what I am doing. Sorry if that isn't clear.

Windows 11 WSL enabled Docker Windows app installed.
