Had somebody ask me to keep politics off the platform for a post I made today.

They're blocked.

If you ask people not to post political stuff, it means "don't post political stuff I don't agree with." And that's BS.

It was attitudes like this that made me mostly stop using social media for 4-5 years. I'd post something or retweet something, and get a barrage of folks sea-lioning or brigading me. For daring to have beliefs that were not theirs.

Ironically, they also got angry about "cancel culture".

At this point, I'm done with debates, and nobody is entitled to a debate. If you don't like my views (yes, I'm a socially progressive person, though hardly extremist; probably petit bourgeoisie best describes me), you don't have to follow me or engage.

I'm tired of having to mask in public. I'm not going to do it anymore.

Lessons in city and school planning.

Our high schools don't use the school bus system, and rely on city buses. However, they've also reduced service. Most kids who ride have a large walk to a stop, and either have to get there absurdly early, or risk not enough space on the buses that get there on time.

And our city is now doing road construction on each of the major roads to the school, AND the one backup route coming from the south.

Talk about setting kids up for failure...

I’m only a few episodes into this season (3rd season) of #StarWars #TheBadBatch, and wow! It’s darker and with an ambiance/tone like #Andor. I like it.

@ramsey I had watched ep 13 a few weeks ago and it ended on a huge cliff hanger, and, being ep 13, I got excited because I thought that meant another season!

Then my son told me Friday that the finale had aired.

I watched the last two episodes yesterday, and damn... All I'll say is, from mid-season 2 to the finale was some of the best SW storytelling I think we've had.

What do you use for offsite backups for applications and databases?

mwop,
@mwop@phpc.social avatar

@sarah I have a recurring job that (a) runs pgdump, and then (b) uses logrotate to rotate backups and expire old archives. This runs on a mounted s3fuse volume, which gives me backup to, in my case, DO spaces.

@willpower232 Yes, within a container, via elementary/s3-volume (https://github.com/elementar/docker-s3-volume).

4th of May... That's the right day to watch "The Wrath of Khan", isn't it?

mwop,

@heiglandreas Absolutely! My favorite part of that movie is when the sentient trees fight the wookiees for control of the Daleks. So moving!

Who knew that going to a conference rebooted my interest in giving more talks and teaching folks about stuff I am interested in?

mwop,

@grmpyprogrammer INORITE?

I ended up brainstorming a "boring tech" talk with @auroraeosrose while at #phptek last week that I'm hoping to flesh out and pitch.

Web developer: my dynamically typed language is now faster than that other dynamically typed language. Sometimes. By a small amount.

Also web developer: SELECT query in loop.

@sean The performance is always limited by the number of I/O operations. It’s almost never the runtime. I’ll die on that hill.

@cstross "Modern conservatives are afraid of using power" 🤣🤣🤣

Wiping tears from my eyes as I look at all the rights modern conservatives have stripped from us...

I just folded a fitted bed sheet… without any cursing. And on the first try.

Ask me anything…

If Kristi Noem killed her 14 month puppy because it was “untrainable,” imagine what she wants to do to LGBTQ folks, atheists, and hippies.

mwop,
@mwop@phpc.social avatar

@theusasingers Those of us who live in SD don't have to imagine, unfortunately. 🫤

We've kept the worst at bay (you know it's bad when even the R-led legislature often works against her worst tendencies), but still see our rights chipped away every single year.

I've missed conferences and live tweeting - what is the mastodon term for it? - good talks

@auroraeosrose I think it's called shitposting.
