I have self hosted for years using Authentik and have 50 + services. Postiz has been one of the most challenging to spin up and maintain. The documentation is not up to date, the software is constantly changing and I had to tweak lots to get it to work. Even now, it seems to crash after a few days and haven’t had the chance to investigate. All these posts I set up didn’t go through and now if I turn it back on, it’ll release them all in one go before I can get in to stop it, or have to revert to a fresh install…

The vast majority of services and not like this so don’t get disheartened! Try some other ones first them come back to this when more experienced. I recommend Bento PDF, ConvertX, outline wiki, vikunja and immich (if you have the storage space).

At first, try to stick to software on Authentik’s guides (https://integrations.goauthentik.io/). Once you do a few OIDC and forward proxy services you’ll get the hang of it.

When I get a chance I’ll share my docker compose SSO settings and authentik redirect uri that worked for me with the caveat that the software crashes for some reason.

We need Warren G in here instead

We’re all fine with piracy because of enshittification and the spread of shows/films across too many services. Happily paid for Netflix when it was good but it slowly got worse and worse. If there was one fairly priced single (maybe max across 3) source(s), I’d switch back.

In terms of stream vs arr’s. Quality of video and sound matters to us but not for everything we watch. I actually use Stremio with Debrid for most items, especially my family choosing what to watch. When I want top quality I will use my arr stack. When stremio fails I’ll use my arr stack. For TV shows we watch regularly we use the arr stack, partly to remind us when they’re released. For TV shows we regularly re-watch I use the arr stack.

They are guilty of something but it is absolutely shameful, terrifying and frankfully illegal how the judge acted in this case. The burden lies with the state to prove beyond reasonable doubt they were guilty but could not do this without limiting the rights of the defendants.

Defendants sentenced as “terrorists” without ever being charged with or convicted of terrorism. The four were convicted only of criminal damage, yet at sentencing the judge, Mr Justice Johnson, attached a “terrorist connection” to their offences, which means they must serve at least two-thirds of their sentences in prison. The jury was never told this possibility existed and never found any of the defendants guilty of a terror-related crime. It is difficult to see how it can be right for so grave a label, with such serious consequences for sentence length and release, to be imposed at the sentencing stage in an ordinary criminal damage case. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/jun/12/palestine-action-activists-sentenced-terrorists-damage-elbit-systems-uk-israel https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/jun/10/four-palestine-action-protesters-terrorists-constitutional-threat

This was so even though the protest took place before Palestine Action was proscribed. The defence noted it was unprecedented for the prosecution to apply for a judge to sentence a defendant as a terrorist for a non-violent offence. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/may/12/palestine-action-activists-elbit-protest-terrorist-connection-ruling

Defendants barred from explaining their motivations to the jury. Throughout the trial the defendants were restricted in what the jury could be told about the wider context of their actions, yet that same context was relied upon at the sentencing stage. The defendants had compared their stand to that of the suffragettes, who in their own time were denounced as a threat to social order. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/jan/08/palestine-action-activist-compared-to-suffragettes-in-court

Inconsistent and missing CCTV, and questions over the conduct of security guards. In the earlier trial the defence argued that the Elbit security team had used excessive force and pointed to missing CCTV footage. When a jury heard the full picture, all six of the original defendants were cleared of aggravated burglary. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/feb/04/palestine-action-activists-cleared-aggravated-burglary-israeli-defence-firm-elbit-systems-filton

Concerns about the conduct of the trial and the judge. The trial judge referred the chief defence barrister, Rajiv Menon KC, for contempt of court over his closing speech — a referral the barrister successfully challenged, with the Court of Appeal ruling that the matter should be reconsidered. That a leading defence barrister should face such an unprecedented step over the way he defended his client raises real questions about the fairness of the proceedings and the chilling effect on robust defence advocacy. https://www.theguardian.com/law/2026/may/12/palestine-action-trial-lawyer-wins-appeal-contempt-court-charge https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckgp5k0ex1zo

Exactly! Terrorism is instilling a fear into a population. What these people did in this case did not effect any body not working in security for a company selling weapons to a proven genocidal nation which will be used to kill children. I

In fact, we will look back at this as just, just like the suffragettes, the LGBT+ communities, the racial communities and so many others.

I, a British citizen, am terrified by the far right actions all over the country directly threatening people and their houses. This is happening on our streets, in our houses and is exactly what I would describe as terrorism.

How do you/we go about reclaiming it though? I’ve thought about it a lot. It has it’s official place - outside buildings, government use, anything with the Royal family etc. It’s got it’s sporting place - union jack for Olympics and British teams, England flag for English team in other sports. Anywhere else you have to assume they’re racist or at a minimum very nationalist, especially after Raise the Flags. In one way, as a brown person it’s helpful to know which places to avoid!

I don’t really don’t want to use the flag outside of international sports, im not going to put it outside my house or business, I don’t carry it around etc

Historically it was the English flag but since brexit it’s a mix of both. I have noticed the English nationalists have seemed to join with the Scottish, Welsh and NI nationalists, and outright talking about grouping up that didn’t seem to happen before

The English flag being used by racists is not a new thing. In my whole life, outside of a World cup Cup or Euros, if I saw a house, pub or person (anything other than official buildings) with an English flag then I would know to avoid them. I remember where I grew up my bus to school went past a house with about 30 flags around which was on the local news one day. Guess what, the resident was a massive racist and a horrible person.

Flags are great at sporting events but outside of that, even though it is sad, they only really mean one thing and doubt that will change anytime son, if only because its been so ingrained into their racist messaging. Same as British Bulldogs

Do American police really arrest people for civil matters? I might be wrong now but if you called the UK police they would not turn up unless there was an actual disruption or violence, and would just say it’s a civil matter to sort between yourselves or go through courts if you really need to. They’d also be struggling to hide their laughter at this!

I stopped listening to The News Agents a while ago because of this exact thing. There’s so much outrage about any attacks on Jewish people in the UK and by Hamas with them being only talked about as being completely evil but it’s when talking about Israel suddenly nuance is allowed back in. No mention of genocide, no mention of islamaphobia, lots of immediate challenge to Polanski but never any mention of Farage or Reform saying stuff that’s 10 times worse.

I always hated that they are really the typical Westminster journalist inside type who try to break stories early and come up with so many discussions about what might happen but only before an event so complete guesses with no real facts.

This vehicle is turning

GDS is one area the government has done really well.

Fucking hell, how long you been holding on to this to post it?

Tge police fucked up massively but this time they killed a while person. Let’s bring out the big guns from 6 years ago!!!

This is it though, the definitive proof that Starmer only cares about black people! I mean, you think you can trust a PM…

South Africa’s sports minister has said his nation was “being made to look like fools” after its football team was delayed travelling to Mexico ahead of the World Cup due to visa issues.

Gayton McKenzie demanded an explanation from South Africa’s football association (Safa) as to why this had happened, adding: “Action must be taken against those responsible for this mess.”

Safa admitted the team had “experienced challenges regarding visas for some players and officials” but did not give further details.

McKenzie later confirmed all the players had received permission to travel and would be leaving for the international tournament on Monday.

National broadcaster SABC described what happened as an “administrative bungle”.

The team, nicknamed Bafana Bafana, are due to face Jamaica in a friendly in Mexico on Friday.

They will then play in the World Cup opening match against Mexico, which is co-hosting the competition alongside the US and Canada, on 11 June.

“This Safa travel & visa debacle is embarrassing & grossly unfair towards the players & coaching staff,” McKenzie had written on X earlier on Sunday.

Shortly after the minister’s comments, a brief statement from Safa said it was “working around the clock to ensure that the team travels to Mexico City as soon as possible ahead of the opening match”.

Efforts were made on Sunday to get the team US visas, according to South African news site TimesLive.

The Bafana Bafana squad and staff need permission to enter the US as they play their second World Cup game against the Czech Republic in Atlanta, in the US state of Georgia.

The government’s international relations department was also involved.

It seems that the efforts paid off, with McKenzie saying on Sunday evening that a chartered flight would be leaving on Monday with all the players onboard.

However visas had not yet been secured for the “assistant coach, team doctor, head of security and one analyst”, he said.

South Africa is one of 10 African nations taking part in the expanded 48-team World Cup.

The game against Jamaica will be Bafana Bafana’s last chance to get ready for the tournament, which they last appeared at when South Africa hosted the finals in 2010.

Their final home match on Friday - a 0-0 draw against Nicaragua that included a missed South African penalty - was described in some reports as “disappointing” and extended their winless run to four games.

I can’t seem to login to the root user on two different mariadb databases to make those changes so must be doing something wrong

Ok, so you’re the genius who never does anything that doesn’t make completely logic sense because of traditions, culture, upbringing or even just making mistakes, as opposed to every single human society in history. Not sure why you brought up that particular practice which is abhorrent. Presumably you are against people wearing crosses, tattoos of significant people or events in somebodies life, football shirts, or any other symbol of something to care about.

I say this as an atheist by the way. I don’t believe in religion but who am I to tell people the beliefs they care about are dumb without knowing anything about them.

Sikhism is less than 600 years old which is not ancient.

The religion requires 5 symbols including this one. The purpose of the kirpan is to always be ready to defend yourself and others regardless of religion, as part of an idea of being a spiritual warrior, because at the time when it was formed, their land was being invaded and people of multiple religions being forcebly and violently converted to another religion and different way of life. Other symbols represent different things.

They used to be long swords but are now dagger sized. Most religious Sikhs nowadays in places like the UK and Canada wear a symbolic one, which either cannot be opened, is dull and/or very small so they have already adapted to living here. They don’t take them on airplanes for obvious reasons but still want to keep on their traditions. Like any group, there are dickheads like this guy but in reality, anybody could chose to carry a knife and use it.

It literally says in the article “Under current legislation, a practising Sikh may wear a small, curved blade, known as a Kirpan, close to the body but drawing it in an act of aggression is illegal.” This is similar to people going camping, or with work tools. If you’re not a danger and have a good excuse for having it then you are acting legally but the second you use it aggressively or to hurt someone it’s the same for everyone.

Please don’t call a central concept of a religion or any way of living dumb without looking up or knowing any facts about it.

Part of me would love to see him destroyed in a real debate with people who will easily tear apart any of his “arguments”. There is no way I’d be touching Redorm TV to watch it though

Calendar days to me would be actual days, I.e. including weekends and bank holidays. There is no way it can be the same as working days!

Yeah it blew my mind when a few times I was called black in Australia when I am of Indian heritage. One even made a joke about my penis being larger!

In Britain, Asian means someone from Indian/Pakistani part of area of Asia, whereas in North America and Australia it means Chinese/Japanese parts of Asia.
