:alert_red: upcoming maintenance warning :alert_blue:

in 1-2 hours (or earlier if the blizzard dies down) the matrix server will be taken offline for maybe 10-15 minutes to swap drives from the failing chassis to the new prepped chassis and re-racked

as always i don't suspect any issues but im scheduling about 1 hour of downtime in the event something happens (something has only happened maybe twice)

thank you friends and have a blessed wednesday morning or afternoon depending on where you are

"The collapse of the West is being orchestrated not so that it can just decline, but so that there can be a controlled collapse big enough that they could implement much more radical solutions. Part of that is world government, dressed up in green rhetoric, a lot of it is going to have a religious angle to it." Terry Wolfe of WolfPox.com 🐺

@Hyolobrika @koimoa @PunishedD @PurpCat It doesn't change the fact that some mentally ill people are dangerous and we shouldn't just let them roam around freely or play into their delusions.

@Hyolobrika @koimoa @PunishedD @PurpCat Raddle's only saving grace is that it's completely FOSS, unlike Reddit which was only partly open source before becoming completely closed source around 2017-2018. Their wikis also have *some* useful information (like Internet privacy), but it should always be taken with a grain of salt.

@koimoa @PurpCat Odysee was the closest to a viable Youtube alternative only because it had the most non-political content on there. I've seen a lot of people joining not because of deplatforming, but because of YouTube demonetizing random videos.

@PurpCat @koimoa @PunishedD I've seen worse. I use to lurk block-happy Mastodon instances like lgbt.io or forums like Raddle (basically Reddit for far-leftists) out of pure bile fascination and you will have the exact people that I'm talking about.

I even remember one person complaining about gender dysphoria being removed from the DSM because of the "ableist connotation that having a mental disorder is a bad thing".

@PurpCat @koimoa @PunishedD Are we talking ResetEra levels of bad? Is it the type of SJWs who claim that words like "crazy", "lame", and "dumb" are "ableist"?

>Just like how CNN did that one alt-tech video with the woman going on about how it was all shit like moon man videos

Because it literally was, if we were talking about Bitchute. Seriously, nothing but culture war, conspiracy, and other political shit on there. The few non-political stuff were just mirrors from Youtube and possibly not even by the original creator.

@PunishedD @koimoa bluesky is literally a left wing version of alt-tech complete with the same problems.

Just like how CNN did that one alt-tech video with the woman going on about how it was all shit like moon man videos, bluesky is literally only focusing on Elon Musk and Donald Trump and as one person on another instance put it, it feels like a retirement home for 2010s socjus types on Twitter.

Other fun facts about Bluesky:
Someone I know who was begging for an invite a few months back has literally said the fun of the site is gone
Accounts are getting inactive
The people I know hyping the site up have also gone inactive, except for the most vocal anti-Musk people (who couldn't make it on Mastodong because of the fact furry instances all suck ass).
No DMS or federation in 2024 yet
You still can't post gifs, or videos
Despite all your rage, if you're a furry or internet artist you still need to use Twitter, where you can post furry porn once a month or year and then go back to crying about AI/Trump/cars.

The more I learn about it, the easier DIY bioengineering seems to be. Maybe not super affordable upfront, but definitely a super cool hobby to have

@Mr_NutterButter I don't think they're mascots. The software allows for custom voicepacks with some you have to pay for. They seem to be the most popular probably because they're free.

I just find it crazy that Japanese text-to-speech software has fictional bios for the voices they provide, but it's not shocking.
