Because cops have a state sanctioned monopoly on violence

I first saw this trick used in an episode of Burn Notice, which was (in my opinion) during the peak of the USA channel’s golden era

Yeah, everyone knows the correct pronunciation is Chip-ōl-tay

Hell yeah! Crackstyle, a true classic

Because bumbling into failures is the tactic he chooses to achieve the goals of his donors, not his constituents but the people who have given him the money to get into his position of power in the first place specifically so that he can pretend to be on board with improving the country only to torpedo anything that looks like it might improve people’s lives if that improvement means his donors missing out on even $1

Ive got a reverse proxy config that was available in the Audiobookshelf github documentation, I was mainly struggling to understand how to get all of the parts working together. Thanks for the help

Is 172.17.0.1 like dockers loopback for its own services?

I had considered the VPN route, but i think its enough of a technical hurdle for other people that it would stop my parents and friends from being able/willing to get onto the audiobookshelf server

I had considered not using nginx for precisely those reasons, but like the plex server i want to make it available to my family and friends and so the nginx reverse proxy build seemed to be the most widely applicable and still secure option so I only need to tell them to download audiobookshelf and point it at the correct domain name.

Thank you so much this is very helpful, I’ll definitely be taking a run at it with all of this advice in mind this week. When you mention running the whole thing as a single stack does that mean getting all of it running inside a single docker container such that it only takes the 1 docker run command? Is it a requirement to get them able to talk or just a more elegant way to have the entirety of the server running in a singular container instead of spread across several?

I know, and that’s on my to-do list, but I wanted to get this up and running at least once before upgrading and potentially having to start from square 1.

Every time I see this video I will watch the whole thing and upvote it. Its always a worthwhile reminder.
