I suppose then, for any child born around 00:10 on 1 January, there might be some pressure to encourage the doctor to write the birth certificate as something more like 23:50 on 31 December? Because of the social prestige with being older?

Or maybe the opposite, since being physically older than your peers is correlated with better academic and sporting performance?

Wow, really interesting, thanks!

It didn’t fix everything, or even fully fix my Redis container. But it did improve things a lot. This is now my full Redis logs:

2025-12-29T17:01:52.277109213Z Redis has started
2025-12-29T17:01:52.746857972Z 7:M 30 Dec 2025 03:01:52.746 # WARNING: The TCP backlog setting of 511 cannot be enforced because /proc/sys/net/core/somaxconn is set to the lower value of 128.

A few years ago, iirc, the Korean government instructed people to stop using the traditional system and to use the international system instead. Has that had much of an effect in practice, or are people largely ignoring it? Or do you think it’s something that younger generations will pick up more over time while older people continue using the traditional system? (This last option being sort of what happened in Australia when we transitioned to metric through the '70s.)

Also, what happens to someone born on 1 January? Are they born du sal, and thus the youngest of their sal, or born han sal and remain han sal for a whole year?

Sorry, I’m not 100% sure I follow. Is this a quip about Nextcloud being difficult to run? If so, is it a loving one, or do you think it’s not worth the effort and I should try running something else?

The docker version says its API is on version 1.43. So I’ve fixed it by setting: DOCKER_API_VERSION: 1.43

Unfortunately I already tried this in my initial post, I’m pretty sure. It’s what I have with the errors shown in the OP.

Seems weird to me that there’s an AIO container that seems to contain other containers, but anyway I guess thats a synology thing.

No, that’s a Nextcloud thing. From what I can tell, it seems to be the preferred way of setting up Nextcloud these days. https://github.com/nextcloud/all-in-one

afaict it’s not that one container contains the containers, so much as one container is given control of the Docker socket so that it can create and control the other containers automatically.

all those containers are “starting” because theyre waiting for one other container to finish “starting” before starting up themselves

Apache and notify-push are waiting for Nextcloud. Nextcloud is waiting for Database. Whiteboard is waiting for Redis.

I have no idea what’s wrong with Database, Redis, or Collabora, but their errors aren’t obviously related to dependencies, to me. (Collabora’s could be, but it’s at least a different type of dependency since the logs are mostly [ remotefontconfig_poll ] ERR Remote config server has response status code: 502 (Bad Gateway)| wsd/RemoteConfig.cpp:133. I’ve not really started looking into it since it’s a rather downstream component and the core components failing is more important.)

Is the 404 in the master container logs from you trying to access the instance in your browser?

Doesn’t seem to be. Seems to add a new log periodically even when I don’t try to load it up. I’m guessing the 404 comes from some kind of automated uptime checker?

deductive logic instead, or set theory, or group theory, or finite field topology

All of these are maths, though?

Also sometimes it actually just is good to know maths. Engineers, researchers, actuaries, accountants…there’s a huge range of practical applications for maths that’s more complicated than basic arithmetic in a very direct fashion, before you even get into jobs that more indirectly use abstract reasoning learnt through high school maths.

On the nation-state

Then I think it’s really important that you are clear about that, mainly with yourself, but also any time you talk about the issue in public. Conflating Israel with all Jewish people is a deliberate attempt by the Israeli government and its supporters to make it easier for them to brush off criticism of their actions as “antisemitism”, and is itself an antisemitic act.

It’s also a major factor in increasing genuine antisemitism, because some people see the atrocities the Israel government is committing, see that Israel claims to be acting on behalf of all Jews, and then they turn around and blame all Jews for the actions of Israel. Which only serves to help Israel’s case, which is why it’s so important we be clear about the distinction whenever possible.

that’s kinda harsh on jewish people

Harsh on Jewish people as a whole, or harsh on the nation-state of Israel and its supporters, many of whom are Jewish?

Deep down I’m still an edgy militant atheist, and really want nothing to do with religious celebrations

Me too, but ironically though I agree with most of your other criticisms of Christmas, this one I actually consciously reject. I make a point of emphasising the fact that in the year 2025, Christmas is 99% a secular holiday that just happens to have a little religious backstory.

Yeah the speed with which the social media minimum age law was passed was astonishing. The public had just 24 hours to make submissions, and those submissions—thousands of them—were given just 4 hours of consideration by the parliamentary committee.

Not an invasive surveillance power, but an extremely untransparent piece of rushed legislation that’s already proving an abject failure as predicted by the many critics.

The gambling industry, facing its own potential ban

Considering how key this part is to the point, it’s rather understated in this article.

In September 2022, Australia started a Parliamentary inquiry into online gambling. In June 2023 the inquiry handed down its full report, including 31 recommendations. 2 of those recommendations included a phased full ban of all advertising of online gambling.

Parliamentary rules require a response to inquiries within 6 months. 30 months later there still has not been any official response.

@non_burglar@lemmy.world is correct, but is perhaps not explaining it perfectly for the practical questions you seem to be asking.

If you have, say, two Docker containers for two different web servers (maybe one’s for your Wiki, and the other is for your portfolio site), you can have both listening on ports 80 and 443 of their container, but a third Docker container running a reverse proxy which has access to your machine’s ports 80 and 443. It then looks at the incoming request and decides which container to route the request to (e.g., http://192.168.1.2/wiki/%s requests go to the Wiki container, and all other requests go to portfolio site).

Now, reverse proxies can be run without Docker, but the isolation Docker adds makes it all a lot easier to manage, in part because you don’t need to configure loads of different ports.

Sorry mate, but you’ve got it wrong. The Prime Minister has specifically come out and said that this law is aimed only at companies, and that children or the parents of children who are able to get onto social media anyway will not be punished. Only the companies that let them slip through.

And you only need to read the legislation to see that that’s true. There are no penalties associated with accessing social media under the age of 16. Only with “a provider of an age-restricted social media platform…failing to take reasonable steps to prevent age-restricted users having accounts”. Or less closely related, “a provider of an age-restricted social media platform must not collect information…for the purpose of complying with [the above requirement] if the information is of a kind specified in the legislative rules”, and another similar “a provider of an age-restricted social media platform must not…collect government-issued identification material…for the purpose of complying with section [the above requirement]”, but this last clause “does not apply if…the provider provides alternative means…for an individual to assure the provider that the individual is not an age-restricted user”. It is also the case that a person who provides an age-restricted social media platform “must comply with a requirement…to give to the Commissioner, within the period and in the manner and form specified by the notice [about that person’s compliance with the law]…to the extent that the person is capable of doing so.”

That’s it. That’s all the new penalties that can be applied.

Here’s a page from the eSafety Commissioner that also confirms it.

Are there be penalties for under-16s if they get around the age restrictions?

There are no penalties for under-16s who access an age-restricted social media platform, or for their parents or carers.

The fact is, right now we know that Facebook has at times made a deliberate, conscious choice to leave in aspects of their algorithm that were causing harm. Their own studies have shown this. Making that practice illegal—knowingly causing harm with your algorithm—would be a good place to start with regulation.

no age can go on the internet.

I don’t think anyone had ever suggested anything like that.

it’s way too obvious that this law ain’t gonna achieve its stated aim

Absolutely. See my much longer comment elsewhere in the thread for all the real problems with this bill. We don’t need conspiracy theories. Hanlon’s razor very much applies here. It’s incompetence, not malice.

However, I think we can look at the worst part of this Bill—the nature of its passage through Parliament—for a clue as to its underlying purpose. It passed in just a week, right before Christmas last year, but didn’t actually come into effect until yesterday. The goal was good PR. I suspect not rattling cages with the big social media companies was part of it too. They wanted to look like they were doing something to protect kids, and hopefully win the election off the back of it (not that they needed much help with that, with how incompetent the LNP were), but they didn’t want to put up the fight that would be necessary to force the social media companies into actually making their algorithms less harmful…to children and adults. It’s lazy, it’s cowardly, it won’t work. But it’s not a secret ploy to spy on you.
