Added a zoom level to the Category page on the Exocortex-Log app. Can make the graphs look a lot cleaner now.
Looking back over the last 100 months here, we can see in general my social life is quite seasonal -- Festivals are a lot of social all weekend long and a couple of them in a month really bumps up the hours from my usual habit of sitting alone in a dark room pressing buttons.
The peak in 2019 is a summer filled with Glasto and Noisily and another festival or camping trip I don’t seem to have recorded the name of.
Then clearly visible is the drop-off in social activity as the COVID pandemic hit. Virtual-Social (IE zoom meetings and the like) picked up quite a bit around there but had died back to almost nothing way before the hours spent with actual people started to tick up.
Annoyingly, I have my biggest gap in data right on top of the pandemic there, where I failed to back up for months and then data became corrupted.
When the data-hole is over we see social life still not really returning until the middle of 2021 and not really getting back into stride until summer 2022.
It remains much lower now on average with lower peaks than before the pandemic too. Multiple reasons.
Work is pretty constant all the way though other than the data-hole. Dipping when I take time off for social mostly.
That data-hole is annoying. Back up your data kids.

I'm getting closer with my nginx-rtmp-Docker-container-on-MacOS project!
I started from scratch on the mac a couple days ago, reinstalled docker with homebrew and then realized that part of my problem was that macOS (and windows) has to run docker in a virtual machine container of its own and *that* can mess with networking.
So I have now figured that out. Colima, the vm that seems most popular on macOS, needs a mac specific option (--network-attached) when starting so that it gets the mac network going. Major Aha! moment.
I also learned more completely how to build my own Docker images.
I've gotten to the point where nginx is definitely running, I know the port is open (via nmap on another device), I know nginx is accepting the stream, but nginx still refuses to publish that stream to Youtube (or at least youtube is not seeing it).
I also can ping apple.com and youtube.com from within the container, so access to the outside world is working.
I
So that's where I'm at.
I just figured out how to get into a container and examine the nginx log files now.
At this point I am going to rebuild the container with nginx configured for full debug level logging. Hopefully that provides some more clues on where it is getting stuck.
I give it a 50/50 chance that it is either an nginx configuration/installation problem or another colima virtual machine/networking issue.
I've learned a lot at least and feel better about my overall Docker knowledge!
And I'm documenting on my blog as I go so I'll have a howto produced from this when it finally works!
