Similar like Christmas, Halloween is not celebrated in the same commercialized way in parts of Europe for example. It focuses more on the remembering and honouring of the dead, commonly done with heading to evening mass and then lighting a candel at the cemetery.
Halloween as we know it evolved from two main sources: the ancient Celtic festival of Samhain, which marked the end of summer and the beginning of winter, and the Christian observances of All Saints’ Day and All Souls’ Day. The night before All Saints’ Day, November 1, became known as “All Hallows’ Eve,” which was later shortened to Halloween.
Celtic festival of Samhain
Purpose: To celebrate the end of the harvest season and the beginning of the dark, cold winter.
Beliefs: Celts believed that on the night of Samhain (around November 1), the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred, allowing spirits to roam the earth.
Traditions: To ward off evil spirits, people would light large bonfires and wear costumes or disguises.
Timing: Held around November 1, the time of the new year for the ancient Celts.
Christian influence
All Saints Day: In the 8th century, the Roman Catholic Church moved the feast day of All Saints to November 1, likely to absorb or replace the pagan traditions of Samhain.
All Hallows’ Eve: The night before the feast of All Saints became known as “All Hallows’ Eve,” or “the eve of all the hallowed (or holy) ones”. Over time, this name was shortened to “Hallowe’en”.
Merged traditions: Many pagan traditions from Samhain merged with Christian observances, such as the “souling” tradition in which people went door-to-door asking for food in exchange for prayers for the dead. This is a precursor to modern trick-or-treating.


This is a interesting question. I believe it comes down to if the “corporate version” of Santa Claus (and Christmas) has made its way to the southern hemisphere. Christmas is a major Catholic holiday celebrating the birth of Jesus. Santa Claus is derived from the Saint Nicholas a patron saint.
“Saint Nicholas is the patron saint of sailors, merchants, archers, repentant thieves, children, brewers, pawnbrokers, toymakers, unmarried people, and students in various cities and countries around Europe. His reputation evolved among the pious, as was common for early Christian saints, and his legendary habit of secret gift-giving gave rise to the folklore of Santa Claus”


Absolutely, hopefully these “true costs” can be accounted for, imagine for example the price of gas without government handouts, or the costs of traffic lights, street signs, and roadways.


Seems like a good thing, cars starting to show their “true cost”.
Now if only all the other external costs would be accounted for.
The person holding the camera looks like they are about to fall over themselves just standing still.


I was under the impression a Supercut meant a condensed version of a mini series or season where the episode have all the filler removed and turned into a 1-3hr movie depending on content left over.
This would take work and dedication for someone to do, with some artist style thrown in as well.
The last supercut I watched was Ashoka


Very Alien sounding. KInd of reminds me of the Heptapods from the movie Arrival (2016).


Thank you! I have been wanting this and had no clue it already existed!
Now if only it were possible to have a VPN active on wireless Android Auto.
Edit: WG Tunnel is compatible with Android Auto. To enable compatibility, use the app’s split tunneling feature to exclude the Android Auto app from the tunnel.


Simple fix with better infrastructure that’s not car centric in nature but people focused.
Though we North America’s have forgotten good design and instead opt for big open roads, parking lots and driveways.


I like to use bootstrap studio for website design.
Another tool, not sure it will fit your needs exactly, called reactive resume. Might be able to use it as a business card.


Nicely said, it’s generally the sheep that goes it alone that gets eaten by the wolf!


Never understood this as well. During COVID the anti-vax crowd was calling people “sheep” as in being asleep or easy to control and direct.
Somehow that seemed to have morphed to “woke”, but woke to me implies that your are “awake” or “thinking”. If someone calls me woke I assume it to be a compliment.


What’s a Next Cloud, what came before it? /s


I feel attacked! I have a ziplock bag of assorted USB thumb drives!


Ohh man this brings back DOS vibes
It looks the same, but the optical illusion does not.


Ahh yes that’s what I was looking to do.
I was thinking if I already have a key file on the remote and local servers then I may not need shh installed on the docker container to do this setup.
How can I run this on unraid, and can I point it at multiple domains and sub-domains?
