@pluralistic Ha. It’s in your audiobook outro for The Lost Cause. I guess I cut out too much. Just thought it was clever and fun.

Yesterday was rough. Our yard backs onto a mountain here in AZ. It is visited by a family of wild rabbits. A gopher snake killed a baby and dragged it into the pool, while the mother watched, helpless. The mother left. Later, after we got the snake removed and the yard had calmed down, we noticed two more dead baby rabbits in the pool. We figured that they were hiding out somewhere and then strayed into the pool, looking for their mother. Heartbreaking.

@wez Our dog, Stanley, suffers/suffered (they seem to be under control now) from seizures and it’s truly heartbreaking to see it happen. Hope the recovery is quick and easy. 🩶

Remember when if the GUI had a toggle, it was actually a toggle control and not a button that sort-of-acts as a toggle control?

And remember when, if you clicked that button, it didn’t move out from under your cursor so that if you try to toggle it again, you didn’t actually accidentally click a DIFFERENT button because the button you want moved?

That was cool.

@anthony Sure. I meant a control that has a state and a checkbox is that. Buttons that don’t change visual state and also move? That’s fire death.

I saw (by way of my feed) that React—the Thalidomide of the Web—is 11 years old today.

Plunge deep into full enshittification mode and then ask me about recommending you, 1Password?

@grmpyprogrammer I’m on Strongbox now. It’s not perfect but it’s worth distancing from 1P’s mess.

A single-user server should not require so many resources to run. 1 vCPU and 1 GB of RAM should be plenty.

@sean@scoat.es avatar

@ramsey FWIW, ours runs on an AWS/EC2 t3.micro (which is 2vCPU @ baseline 10% + bursts) and serves ~25 people on a given workday. It also does Tailscale, and runs our self-hosted Element if anyone happens to be using that today.

Load average: 0.02, 0.03, 0.02 ; MemTotal: 972356 kB; $0.0104/hour (<$8/month) on-demand + bandwidth.

@ramsey Yeah; we’re not doing Docker there, so you’re probably right.
It’s EC2 -> NixOS -> Synapse (via systemd).

sean,
@sean@scoat.es avatar

@ramsey No Caddy. nginx in front of Synapse.

@ramsey I forgot and had to look it up, but it’s Postgres. Not in a separate container though (same ec2 node).

What’s the deal with skinny 12 oz. cans?

sean,
@sean@scoat.es avatar

@ramsey People giving you logical suggestions here but the obvious actual answer is: marketing.

sean,
@sean@scoat.es avatar

@ramsey I think it’s probably about being different. Or the same as others who are doing well. I bet it started as copying Redbull.

I know retro tech is big right now, but I never expected this kind of grassroots anti-TCP campaign!

(Yes, this is a 90s joke that barely 8 of you will get.)

@olivier Yep!

@anthony @olivier That never happened to me AFAIK.
