Timothy Olyphant returns in Justified: City Primeval, a limited series revival that takes everyone's favorite modern day cowboy to Detroit.
Now I feel dumb.
That didn't work earlier.
I just went to copy the error message I saw before and... it's working.
Maybe because I switched back to Namecheap's nameserver? Or maybe because I cleared my cache again? Or maybe because I game it some more propagation time?
Or maybe magic?
Each potential reason seems equally likely to me.
Thanks
Lemmy Easy Deploy. I didn't know where to find any tutorials for using an Oracle Cloud VM. Did the official have that?
Today I decided to get an inexpensive custom domain from Namecheap and try self-hosting Lemmy. A few bucks later I was thinking, "Hey, this is going to be cake."
I'd read some of the warnings about Oracle Cloud free tier, but figured I'd still give it a shot for hosting. I found a simple how-to for quickly getting an Ubuntu instance spun up with Docker and Portainer. A few minutes later I'm thinking, "This is so easy!"
Then I try to access Portainer using HTTPS and see my first "Your connection is not private," warning. "No worries," I think. "Advanced>Proceed. I'm in."
So I run Lemmy Easy Deploy. "The lights are green, the trap is clean! Boom. Here we go!"
Nothing.
Ports seem to be open on Oracle, but no Lemmy at either 80 or 443.
"Maybe Lemmy is more particular about SSL certificates and such?" I think, for the first time getting worried.
"Err, I think that if I change my nameserver to Cloudflare I can destroy my Lemmy containers, re-run Lemmy Easy Deploy with a Cloudflare API token, and maybe fix it?
Four hours later, after repeatedly starting over, clearing my browser cache every 5 minutes, switching back and forth between nameservers, even deleting the whole Oracle Cloud VM and starting from scratch, I realize that an HTTP connection to port 443 is returning "Client sent an HTTP request to an HTTPS server."
"Were you there before, message?" I wonder.
Lemmy friends, can you help me? Or am I better off just deleting the VM and giving up the whole idea?

I thought it was ebooks-only. I didn't realize was for audiobooks also. Thanks!
Something Overseer-like for requesting audiobooks for Plex.
ChatGPT and I came up with this bookmarklet which I'm using until this is resolved.
You set your home instance, then just click it when on a post on another instance. It grabs the post title and the author, redirects to a post search of the title on your home instance, and copies the author to your clipboard to Ctrl-F if there are too many results.
You have to be pretty quick on the draw to be able to enable clipboard access when using it on a new instance for the first time. So it's like a game, too.
javascript:(function(){
let instance = "lemm.ee";
const personListing = document.querySelector('.person-listing');
const author = personListing.getAttribute('title');
navigator.clipboard.writeText(author);
alert("Post author copied to clipboard.\n\nCtrl-F + Crtl-V when redirected, if necessary.");
var title = document.title;
var lastDashIndex = title.lastIndexOf(" - ");
if (lastDashIndex !== -1) {
title = title.substr(0, lastDashIndex);
}
var encodedTitle = encodeURIComponent(title);
let search = "https://" + instance + "/search?q=" + encodedTitle + "&type=Posts";
window.location.href = search
})();
You might want to check out https://github.com/amirzaidi/lemmy. I stumbled upon it. Beehaw defederated Lemmy.world (info.) This section on defederating may help you understand that if it's unclear.
Most of us are also new to the Fediverse, but learning every day. Welcome!
TIL wasps swarm, and now I have a new fear.
According to this site wasps might swarm if their nest is disturbed, at a change of season, or to establish a new colony (like @fubo@lemmy.world said.)
Always there. Here's an ELI5 from Bing:
The article is about a very quiet sound that comes from space. The sound is made by things that are very big and heavy, like giant balls of fire or holes that suck everything in. The sound is so quiet that we can't hear it, but we can use special machines to find it.
The article says that this sound is all around us, and it comes from different places in space. Some places are very far away, like other stars or other worlds. Some places are closer, like our big family of stars. The article also says that this sound can help us learn more about space and how it works.
The article is very cool because it shows that there are many things in space that we don't see, but we can find them by listening to the sounds they make.
I've seen this site suggested in posts like this:

I'm using the spoiler tag because elsewhere I've seen this warning about the site:
run by people from kiwifarms (a known bad actor on the fediverse).
I'm unfamiliar with "kiwifarms" but the site currently does has some offensive language at the bottom that's associated with 4chan, so be warned.
That said, it appears to be the only site currently available to see which instances in the fediverse have blocked/defederated your instance. (The reverse of <instance domain>/instances, which only shows which instances your instance has blocked/defederated.)
