Had to say goodbye to Chaos this morning, the curliest, squeakiest, most rain-absorbingest cat you could ever hope to meet. A sad day at home today, give your pets a cuddle from us <3 #CatsOfMastodon #cats

A ginger cat inside a cat teepee. He’s looking and the camera and looks very happy.
A ginger cat crouching on top of a wooden fence. There’s green leaves of a hedge behind him and he’s looking intently at the camera with green eyes.
A ginger cat sitting in front of a low-profile led-backlit keyboard. He has a paw forward on the wrist rest as though he’s mid-typing.

Nice quiet visit to my parents, then

Turns out the result of not drinking enough milk can be more serious than playing for a football club you haven't heard of :o

Blood donation cancelled due to technical issues (needle/vein interaction), but was far enough through the steps that I can’t retry until after standard three month timeout :/

Not sure who set up this swap partition — I mean, I’m the admin of this instance but it was originally launched from a provided template, I think — but I don’t think I’ll bother using it.

@MonaApp any idea why Mona can’t sign in to snac? After going through the oauth form it GETs /api/v1/accounts/verify_credentials a bunch of times (looks successful in my logs) before the app says “The data couldn’t be read because it is missing”. Is it looking for something snac doesn’t include in the response? The response code is here if it helps: https://codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2/src/branch/master/mastoapi.c#L1112 Thanks!

A beer (can) from Cloak + Dagger, called Holy Calamity. Session Pale, 4%, citrus pale.

Upgraded my mastodon server to #FreeBSD 14. Fairly straightforward but ended up updating Ruby to 3.2.2 to fix a build error.

Added notes to my post at https://jamesoff.net/2022/12/05/mastodon-on-freebsd.html
