He was at a drug-fueled party with wealthy, well-connected people. There would be no reason to believe that a 17 year old girl would have the wealth or connections needed to gain access to that party.

are you new?

of course a party like that would have underage girls. it is a situation that FAMOUSLY has underage girls.

can you at least tell me they were IDing at the door?

Gaetz had every reason to believe he was engaging in consensual (if abhorrent) sexual activity with a willing adult.

what reason?

The committee said it found evidence that Gaetz did not learn the victim’s age until a month after they had sex. But “statutory rape is a strict liability crime,” the report said, referring to crimes that don’t require proof of intent for a conviction.

I took no steps towards this. I can’t see any hashtags from my end.

I don’t use mastodon but I vaguely recall something about a bot that would add hashtags to lemmy posts to get them visibility on there. It was opt-in at some level but not per-user or per-post. Maybe the community moderator? Or the instance admin had to install something?

I posted to my instance here https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/obsidianmd@lemmy.world and the comm’s home instance is https://lemmy.world/c/obsidianmd. Maybe someone at one of those can tell you how it happened.

I clicked through from your comment and I found my profile on your instance, https://masto.ai/@laserjet@lemmy.dbzer0.com. I see one other post has been tagged with #piracy which I also didn’t take any active steps towards. Maybe if you use this method to look at a more active user you can deduce where it’s coming from.

Sorry I was not clear. I want to use the lemmy formatting in obsidian and have it correctly render the effect. They for some reason invented their own novel spoiler code that nobody else uses or supports.

See the post, or documentation (ctrl-f “spoiler”).

Or click the [!] button in the WYSIWYG toolbar above the comment text entry box:

If I paste your text into lemmy I get this: <details> <summary>Short Summary</summary> <p>text to hide</p> </details>

If there would be a way to make the lemmy ::: spoiler code style render as details. That’s what I want. So I can copy/paste the exact same text and it will work in both places.

sudo docker compose up

OK, well that works enough to access the specified port and loads the webapp. So that’s cool. :) There’s a tcp error printed in the page itself but ?maybe? that is caused by improperly running it.

It could well be some self imposed error. But I’m always gonna be making those. If it is, it happened because I was trying to solve some other rudimentary issue. I’ve never gotten anything functional with this so it’s not like I was trying to do something fancy and got in over my head.

Part of the issue with docker in this attempt and other times is it doesn’t give good enough errors/output to diagnose. It’s really kind of you to help me here but I can’t call you every step. The documentation is too focused on making things look simple even when they’re not, and therefor glossing over whatever system weirdies are getting in the way. You identified a user issue and even I suspected it (that’s why I tried all those commands with and without sudo in the above comment). Yet it is not in the official documentation as a potential cause of said error. And now that I have confirmed it, I have no idea how to solve it. I see in my browser history I’ve previously looked up “rootless mode”. Maybe that’s how I screwed this up in the first place.

Moral of the story is, docker becomes a mess immediately. :D

I really appreciate the time you took to help me but seriously there is always issues even when it’s supposed to be simple/basic. Nevertheless I am in the mood to be wrong and pleasantly surprised so I follow your instructions. (Spoiler: It doesn’t work. But I am not trying to request further help about this, because I am fairly resigned to the situation. I am just showing you, that I tried.)

I already had docker and docker-compose installed; I was already in the docker group; and the service was already active per systemctl. I guess from last time I tried this (not too long ago). Create directory, file etc.

$ docker compose up
unable to get image 'zefhemel/silverbullet': Cannot connect to the Docker daemon at unix:///home/username/.docker/run/docker.sock. Is the docker daemon running?

So I find Troubleshooting the Docker daemon | Docker Docs. It has several methods to find out if docker is even running which now I am confused about.

reports as inactive: # systemctl is-active docker, # systemctl status docker.service, $ docker info

report as active: $ systemctl status docker.service, # systemctl is-active docker,
$ systemctl is-active docker, # docker info

$ env | grep DOCKER_HOST and # env | grep DOCKER_HOST have no output.

ps aux | grep docker and top | grep docker tell me dockerd is running by root. So I think maybe I need to start it as a regular user for this exercise?

Found Start the daemon | Docker Docs which advises the use of dockerd either with or without sudo depending on environment.

normal user:

Starting up
dockerd needs to be started with root privileges. To run dockerd in rootless mode as an unprivileged user, see https://docs.docker.com/go/rootless/

Oh it needs to be root. OK, try again with sudo:

Starting up
failed to start daemon, ensure docker is not running or delete /var/run/docker.pid: process with PID 3952 is still running

So it is running? 3952 was pid reported by top and ps. It is running. But it’s not running.

Who knows… honestly this is how it goes every time. Maybe I am running services wrong… maybe I set something up last time because I was trying to solve another problem and it was suggested and that thing is now causing me am issue. I could chase my tail on this all week.

Like I said I completely believe everyone that once you’re rolling with it, it’s great. I’m happy for everyone who is able to access this. I will continue to live without it for the time being.

Also syncthing fork for years here.

I got worried when the official app was discontinued but from the fork repo it seems fine.

Even though syncthing is great you should MAKE BACKUPS while you are setting it set up and anytime you tweak things. Things can go wrong. They might not, and there are lots of people who can truely tell you they have not had a single problem. But if you have the bad luck to check a box you didn’t understand or make some other error you will be SOL.

I wish more projects would have cheap rate subscriptions. Bitwarden was my first floss subscription and I don’t even consider canceling it even though I don’t really need any of the premium features. (I think its more like 1€ per month.)

But these “its the price of a fancy coffee per month” ones… Girl I haven’t had a fancy coffee since like 2018.

I would love to remove non floss obsidian from my day but its just so gosh darn useful. I came across Silverbullet a while ago in one of my periodic searches for alternatives.

Main issue getting in the way for me to even try it is docker. I understand that once you are comfortable with it, its convenient, but I never got there. I have tried running it every so often and its always some kind of issue that makes me give up. I keep a list of docker-only software to try in the event I ever get over that hump and this is on it.

As a competitor against obsidian, Joplin etc the docker pre req is a very high bar to clear. Overwhelming majority of users of note taking apps have not and will not run docker.

Knowing this, it makes me less excited about this project as it exists today because the best thing about obsidian is the giant user base creating so many plugins and tools to work with it. I wouldn’t care for vanilla obsidian at all, it is made great by all the community generated add ons. So a small user base is kind of inherently a knock against any given project for me.

I don’t know or presume this projects goals. If they want to be an alternative to desktop apps for less technical user-base, this would have to be resolved. But totally legit if that’s not the priority.
