  • My mother keeps spending 11 hours a day in Facebook and then sending me random shit from it.

    Everyone always tries to pinpoint when Facebook got terrible. I was there for it. I remember it. While it happened over time the instant it was uncool and lame was when the first parent signed up.

    The moment it was over for me was when my mother sent me a friend request.

    Hold on, you never said residents. If this was a neighborhood-wide push then I would be open to it. The neighborhood may have a good reason to say bus stop should be here or there, if there were many home owners asking for a change then that is something I would agree with. Maybe there’s a coffee shop a block away that more people congregate at and it would be better used there, maybe people don’t want to j-walk to catch their bus. Those are reasons that make it worth changing - for the good of the public and the neighborhood.

    However, if it was one house then as I’ve said and stand by, I view it as selfishness. I see it as one person dictating how many others can or can not go about their time on public property, and trying to dictate to the city where they can or cannot put public services on their own land. I don’t care if it was 70 feet or 700 feet, it’s one person with a minor, tiny, insignificant change. I said this elsewhere and I stand by it:

    They didn’t want to see them out their window? Deal with it. You want privacy? Close the curtains or pay to put up a fence. Someone is loud? They’re there for 20 minutes max until the next bus. Or what is most likely from the photo - they probably wanted a parking space there. I don’t see any reason to push to move it that wasn’t selfish.

    The best reason I heard is that maybe it was an issue with how loud the bus was, that one may have credence. However, pushing it closer to the neighbor doesn’t seem like a solution, and it seems like it should be a neighborhood discussion.

    I’ll say the noise factor is the first reason that I’ve heard could be a legitimate issue for the person living there, I appreciate that reason. If that was the case, then I would back it, but also I live ~1 block from the bus stop and I can hear the air brakes from my house through walls, so I would think they are pushing it to their neighbor’s house instead of talking about the actual problem with the city.

    because to me it’s pure NIMBY-ism. Maybe it’s because I’m a city guy, who is used to whatever going on around my home, but it’s just a weird thing from my perspective to get upset about. I personally just don’t see anything that’s worth going to city council and complain about. To me I see a bus stop which from the image below looks like it’s a very suburban street so we’re talking a few dozen people a day, max. Whatever the reasons were in my opinion were selfish. They didn’t want to see them out their window? Deal with it. You want privacy? Close the curtains. Someone is loud? They’re there for 20 minutes max until the next bus. Or what is most likely from the photo - they probably wanted a parking space there. I don’t see any reason to push to move it that wasn’t selfish.

    It’s the city’s property. It’s on the city’s sidewalk, it’s for the city bus, and street parking is public funds for private vehicles. It’s theirs to do with as they will. The homeowner has rights up to the edge of the property. The city has a duty to provide ingress and utilities to that property. To me it’s the definition of Karen-ing.

    People disagree with me. Fine, but I’m holding my ground. I call it selfish. Yeah it’s 70 feet, but it all in my mind is “The city must change their plan and their property for my convenience”

    We have no knowledge of why it was there in the first place, we’re only given one side of the story. Maybe this was closer to a crosswalk, or nextdoor was less safe. We don’t even know if the stop existed there before she moved in. We don’t know. All we know is old lady didn’t like view of people outside her window and decided that instead of dealing with it she had to change it herself.










  • Sure! I use Kaniko (Although I see now that it’s not maintained anymore). I’ll probably pull the image in locally to protect it…

    Kaniko does the Docker in Docker, and I found an action that I use, but it looks like that was taken down… Luckily I archived it! Make an action in Forgejo (I have an infrastructure group that I add public repos to for actions. So this one is called action-koniko-build and all it has is this action.yml file in it:

    name: Kaniko
    description: Build a container image using Kaniko
    inputs:
      Dockerfile:
        description: The Dockerfile to pass to Kaniko
        required: true
      image:
        description: Name and tag under which to upload the image
        required: true
      registry:
        description: Domain of the registry. Should be the same as the first path component of the tag.
        required: true
      username:
        description: Username for the container registry
        required: true
      password:
        description: Password for the container registry
        required: true
      context:
        description: Workspace for the build
        required: true
    runs:
      using: docker
      image: docker://gcr.io/kaniko-project/executor:debug
      entrypoint: /bin/sh
      args:
        - -c
        - |
          mkdir -p /kaniko/.docker
          echo '{"auths":{"${{ inputs.registry }}":{"auth":"'$(printf "%s:%s" "${{ inputs.username }}" "${{ inputs.password }}" | base64 | tr -d '\n')'"}}}' > /kaniko/.docker/config.json
          echo Config file follows!
          cat /kaniko/.docker/config.json
          /kaniko/executor --insecure --dockerfile ${{ inputs.Dockerfile }} --destination ${{ inputs.image }} --context dir://${{ inputs.context }}     
    

    Then, you can use it directly like:

    name: Build and Deploy Docker Image
    
    on:
      push:
        branches:
          - main
      workflow_dispatch:
    
    jobs:
      build:
        runs-on: docker
    
        steps:
        # Checkout the repository
        - name: Checkout code
          uses: actions/checkout@v3
    
        - name: Get current date # This is just how I label my containers, do whatever you prefer
          id: date
          run: echo "::set-output name=date::$(date '+%Y%m%d-%H%M')"
    
        - uses:  path.to.your.forgejo.instance:port/infrastructure/action-koniko-build@main # This is what I said above, it references your infrastructure action, on the main branch
          with:
            Dockerfile: cluster/charts/auth/operator/Dockerfile
            image: path.to.your.forgejo.instance:port/group/repo:${{ steps.date.outputs.date }}
            registry: path.to.your.forgejo.instance:port/v1
            username: ${{ env.GITHUB_ACTOR }}
            password: ${{ secrets.RUNNER_TOKEN }} # I haven't found a good secret option that works well, I should see if they have fixed the built-in token
            context: ${{ env.GITHUB_WORKSPACE }}
    

    I run my runners in Kubernetes in the same cluster as my forgejo instance, so this all hooks up pretty easy. Lmk if you want to see that at all if it’s relevant. The big thing is that you’ll need to have them be Privileged, and there’s some complicated stuff where you need to run both the runner and the “dind” container together.
