woof, looks like radtown is down

You can find me on @adasauce@radical.town now.

Domain blocks on here were cutting me off from some folx that I interact with on the sometimes, and making threads impossible to follow.

Still love the locals I've found here, expect to see lots of follow requests coming from my new home.

Hopefully this is the last time I'm setting up shop again.

See you all on the other side!

I'm just over here linking calendar events to pizza delivery APIs that will magically get delivered 10 minutes before the event.

we're finally in 2019 folks.

I thought some people from one of my old timelines disappeared but turns out they're instance blocked here, for apparently good reasons from the blocklist.

maybe finding a new instance with a wider network.

ever just spill a freshly boiled pot of tea on your leg and now its all red and blistery? 😭

my eyes are tired today. what font is everyone using for terminals?

<kitty keyboard shortcuts>

please stay in my brain

Customized the Debian 10 cloud image yesterday, boot time on a fresh VM went from 45 seconds to 14 seconds to SSH access.

Fast first boots feel so good and clean, really makes deploying multiple servers feel magical.

what if we collectively paywalled corporations for access to open source software? 🤔

where authors joined a union of sorts and required a fee per month to the union organization for permission to use the software to "increase shareholder value". then the union redistributed the funds based on which projects were generating the income.

we'd create a community where the members are all motivated to maintain the software and contribute to member projects.

now tell me why this is bad and wrong.

people talking about making self-hosting mail more accessible to set up and run day-to-day.

<dream>

turn this hairball: 😩
- clamd
- dovecot
- fail2ban
- postfix
- rspamd
- apache / nginx
- mysql
- sogo
- solr

into this:
./smallmail-server

implement SMTP & IMAP, secure and encrypted by default, forget "enterprise" & scale-out features, bake in backups.

</dream>

make the initial cipher a riddle, the correct answer to the riddle is fed to a hash algorithm (pre-shared out of band), which generates a working password. 🤔

going camping. see you all in like 4 days.

we'll see if my jorts collection keep me in or out with these unknowning campers.

@catalina you yawned again, didn't you?

don't wink at me in your changelog.

this is the
story
of
a girl
who
gets a favor
from
someone
who
actually
possesses some power.

So I
go
back to
my
mole
and I paint
something
in the shape
of
a
cannon
that I shoot at the enemy.

I
just
want to
show
the enemy
that they
can
only
run
their little cannon
against
me
with their willing brains
and
their

weak

little

limbs.
