    Oh no, you’re going to make me be that guy lol.

    Ricing comes from “rice cooker”, meaning a Japanese car. The term is so far removed from any racial implications now, that some people say RICE means “Race Inspired Cosmetic Enhancements”, though it’s just an excuse where one need not exist.

    I regularly see people brigade for others to stop saying it, even though the word now exists on its own. People treat it like it’s comparable to something like the Washington “Redskins”, it isn’t.

















  • “It would be weird to get offended because someone told you to”

    Right, but it happens. The post which triggered this reply chain is essentially a litmas test for what I’m describing.

    The acronym of RICE was made after the racist connotations were already established. It’s an attempt to rewrite history so people could continue saying it.

    It is documented to have come from racial origins in the 1960’s. Yet, I can’t find anything about the acronym from more than twenty years ago.


  • How to docker-compose in thirty seconds.

    Simply make a file called

    compose.yaml

    Then paste in the text from your application’s docker-compose instructions.

    Often the timezone needs to be set, along with the volume

    Example:

    volume: /mnt/hdd/data:/data

    This means the application’s data directory will be mounted at /mnt/hdd/data

    Then

    docker compose up -d

    You’re done, that’s all there is.

    docker-compose is fantastic because in a single compose.yaml file you can list multiple services.

    For example, my compose.yaml file contains my sonarr/radarr/bazarr/lidarr/prowlarr/qbittorrent/deemix/jellyfish/jellyseerr

    And I can update them all by running a shell script made of three lines.
