Holy macarolli!! It's back!
Bullshit clickbait, bullshit article.
Trump is a dumbass. Don't get down to his level.
Kurzgesagt has a brilliant, if uncomfortable, video.
I think this might be interesting to test, but development seems to be a bit to quick for production, yet.
Huh TIL. Thought it was cock.
Clickbait article, as well as a shit one. Trump is this context is only relevant as much as him changing US stance on NATO. Nobody is bothering to appease him here, this is all pure self preservation.
Thanks for a good chuckle!
I'd just like to point out (or remind) that .cafe does not federate with .ml. All inter-node communication is dropped.
Sorry, it's rare people are not asking for trouble here :)
I mean that any (reasonable) distance travelled at 90km/h will have consumed less fuel than that travelled at 30km/h; given the same car is used, reasonable gear is selected, etc, of course. If there is less fuel consumed, then, naturally, the emissions are lower as well, since that's just a byproduct of combustion.
While travelling at 90km/h will consume more fuel per unit of time than at 30km/h, the speed increase makes up for that.
No, I'm not.
You're arguing something else.
It's a direct correlation. Emissions come from fuel burnt. Less fuel - lower emissions.
I don't really understand this. Air quality is not affected if it's electric cars. If it's about ICE cars - then, in general, efficiency goes up till ~90km/h.
I feel like the limit was lowered for a fake reason and is now suggested to be brought back up for a bad one.
I think looking for a parking space in what is, effectively, a lorry - is a bit of a waste of energy. It will only fit into >=4 spots anyway, might as well just stop wherever you need. You'll be a hated by everyone anyway.
Not taking a piss - are they legal in EU to drive on a B cat license?
Still cool!
That is something I've already run into at my previous workplace. The name escapes me atm...
Inatances self report these stats. All you have to do is a single db query and all of a sudden you have 100 million MAU.
There is no AI.
What's sold as an expert is actually a delusional graduate.
My bad. I thought it was only outbound federation that worked, but have now just created a comment and it has been accepted. Carry on!
Episode 8: On the third day of BOFH-mas the sales guy took from me: 3 MFPs, 2 unasked-for shoves, and a cartridge in a cup of tea...

Got a good chuckle out of it :)
All on my own!
I've heard horror stories about it taking months upon months in the past and they've been keeping me from trying. Silly me :)
It took under two days; and most of the time was trying to figure out all the problems caused by being behind a an http proxy. Looking back, I can see it can be done in a minute or so now that I've got a few bits of config nailed down.
Granted this is a very bare bones cluster atm, but applying that test nginx deployment and seeing all three replicas running, one on each node, has sent me buzzing :)
Next step - generating an internal intermediate and shoving it into the cluster.
Happy Monday!

It appears Trump is going to be the next president of US. I'm not sure such a thread is needed in the first place, but here goes.
Feeling anxious? Desperate? Got the expected result?
What do you think went wrong? What do you think went right? What do you think the future holds?

Lemmy Cafe will be having its database upgraded.
Reasons
- PostgreSQL 17 has been released and the changelog is promising a lot of IO improvements. Lemmy sure could use it given the constant stream of small events flowing in.
Plan
- Point
nginx
to the maintenance page - Shut down PostgreSQL 16
- Run the upgrade tool
- Start up PostgreSQL 17
- Point
nginx
to lemmy
Expected downtime
About an hour, if things go well. More if not so.
Will try to keep the maintenance page updated.

Admittedly, I have a fairly serious bias against Microsoft, so it's unlikely they'll every say much I can trust; but I am genuinely surprised their marketing department didn't even bother coming up with another name to try selling this atrocity.
Due to the recent @Soup's post I have decided to do some housekeeping. I've been getting frustrated at lemmy's performance at times as well and this simply was a wake up call, if you will.
I am sorry about no advance downtime annoucement - Sunday is the only day I can really put any meaningful amount of time into lemmy.
___ Things done today:
- Upgraded
database
VM 1 core 2GB -> 2 cores 4GB. Double the compute, double the memory. - Adjusted database config to account for increased resources
- Adjusted
hugepages
config to account for increased database's requests - Updated both lemmy and database VMs
- Rebooted the lot

Thank you for your patience. I will also use this moment of focus to write up a financial report in a separate post.
Also, thank you, @Soup!
___ EDIT: I've also marked all instances known to lemmy.cafe as active. What this means is that lemmy.cafe will now keep retrying to federate to everything very aggressively. This is a compute-intensive process and will also impact performance for a few hours, until exponential backoff kicks in. I've done it to revive any falsely-marked-as-dead instances; there's no fix for it on lemmy itself.
