haha whoops um computer fairies ran out of disk space

@lizardsquid the thing is i want to leave migration running overnight because apparently it can run for upwards of one hour depending on instance's db size

@lizardsquid about 3-5 minutes for docker but yeah

it's just ... in the unlikely case things go south, won't be awake to know :B

so.. computer fairies is backed up (oops this toot won't be in the backup now) and docker-compose build is done

... dare i try leaving the db:migrate running? :x

i could run "docker-compose run --rm web rails db:migrate && docker-compose up -d" that way it'll restart the instance as soon as it's done... whenever that'll be. so i won't be able to warn you when it restarts, but at least i won't have to babysit it >.<

@Elizafox the db contains all toots

_all_

so it depends who you federate with

also, really? :/

computer fairies' db (in pg_dumpall output) is 980mb

oops

(yeah i'm sure your instance is bigger don't @ me)

discourse 

hey nerds, uh

people refusing to let stuff enter their space is not "censorship", it's *their space*, they can do whatever the hell they want

in the case of a mastodon instance, for the admins in charge of the instance it is in fact *their space*

if you don't like your instance's policies and they refuse to budge on them, moving instances is a pain in the ass but it is also the entire point of decentralization

if you don't like another instance's policies there are options there too

pol, silly, don't @ me 

i don't even KNOW what tankies are

does anyone remember how to backup the mastodon docker db? i forgot

@chr@cybre.space oh

i think the db disparity would count from when you start the migration though

so ... one hour and 30 seconds?

@chr@cybre.space no but i mean

which part took 30 seconds, what state

i'm confused by your wording...

i think i'll give it a shot anyway

@chr@cybre.space hhhhhhh

so wait what took 30 seconds

@chr@cybre.space what i'm worried about is the inconsistency caused by using an old db between starting update and switching containers

@chr@cybre.space dockerrrrrrrrr kinda does that i mean? the old container keeps running while you build the new one

and then you just switch

can i dissolve these aniseed mints and make aniseed tea out of them because the smell of the mints are really giving me a craving for the tea

@chr@cybre.space but i mean, it'll have to be done some day, right?

what if i leave it running overnight
