back from vacation (lemmy.beyondcombustion.net)

Just completed a 450mi bike tour. Sorry the site went offline, tried to fix an issue with the mobile version through my phone and it took the whole thing down. Whoops.

I didn't take my laptop, couldn't afford to carry the extra weight with the vapes I took lol.

TM2 is ❤️ (lemmy.beyondcombustion.net)

Hitting the TM2 to relax and pause while thinking about how to fix this so I can ebike the 300 miles back home..

What’s your favorite vape for fixing fucked up problems?

Couldn’t bring everything I wanted to because it was like 500lbs of stuff.

Two of these will run/charge directly from my eBike though (since it’s got a 12v DC system), so they were obvious choices to keep when cutting weight.

Updated Voyager to 1.8.0 since that was just released (linked)

Expanded the volume for lemmy by 100GB

Cleaned up old snapshots of VMs, created new baselines.

Scripting and posting shit on Gitea.

New VM for Lemmy w/ separate VMs for Redis and PostgreSQL are just about done. Same with MediaCMS, Pixelfed, and Invidious.

I was also smart enough this time to remember and make snapshots along the way so I don't have to start over if something goes completely wacko.

Documentation, configs, etc (gitea.beyondcombustion.net)

Finally started putting some things up on the Gitea for the server config.

Started by adding the docker-compose.yml files for two of the lemmy-ui alternatives that are running now.

mlmym, Voyager, and others don't seem to have docker-compose.yml files on their project pages yet, so I'll fork and properly PR those later this afternoon.

Here is a message from his family:

Dear all,

It is with a heavy heart that we have to inform you that Bram Moolenaar passed away on 3 August 2023. Bram was suffering from a medical condition that progressed quickly over the last few weeks.

Bram dedicated a large part of his life to VIM and he was very proud of the VIM community that you are all part of.

We as family are now arranging the funeral service of Bram which will take place in The Netherlands and will be held in the Dutch lanuage. The extact date, time and place are still to be determined. Should you wish to attend his funeral then please send a message to funer...@gmail.com. This email address can also be used to get in contact with the family regarding other matters, bearing in the mind the situation we are in right now as family.

With kind regards,

Will fix that once I get back from the colo. The docker container wants a reboot for whatever reason, and there's some updates to that front-end pending.

Combusted on the first bowl w/o capsule, so I need to clean it and keep using it for a bit to give good feedback on this thing. In the meantime, here's an unboxing and a couple pics.

Posting multiple pics, let alone videos here sucks. I'm going over to put the 2nd server in the colo this afternoon and hopefully fix that.

Agree 100%, !@sabreW4K3@lemmy.tf is pretty bad ass for finding/posting all these awesome memes.

I ain't got nothin better to do so might as well run a server forever

you should see how many of these big servers were (and still are) running their instances as 'root'...

I specifically stopped trying to grow my instance to focus on security and sysadmin back-end administrative infrastructure.

ya know, it's not hard to setup a totally independent instance on the same hypervisor as another.

I have servers, you have people, we could make independent lemmy instances on my two Dell R720xd and one Dell R730xd servers. They're not overloaded with people like lemmy.world yet, that would put way way more stress on that server.

This is awesome. heck yeah for posting it on gitlab later.

I need to expand the disk for this server's Gitea instance. But once you get it posted we'd be happy to mirror it

I have the shuruggie tattooed on my right wrist. Shruggie is a state of mind.

That's what this Dell PowerEdge I'm posting on is for

Hellll yeah!!

I don't want to be the only one out here churning through ActivityPub data for all those $5 VPS Lemmy servers ;-)

Might even be in a silent server specs race with @TheDude@sh.itjust.works.

TheDude just doesn't know it yet, and neither does my checking account.
