Busy weekend of epic server rebuilds, new K3S cluster, new storage array. #nerd
Hey there #mastoadmin folks of the #fediverse! One of the longest running #relay platforms on the network just got a nice shiny upgrade to keep up with a deluge of traffic. Servers are now slowly reconnecting. If you're interested in relaying with us, please visit https://mastodon-relay.thedoodleproject.net. Tips most welcome.
Happy Friday #journalism friends. We recently upgraded our free service that helps #journalists and #news orgs around the world verify their presence on #mastodon and the #fediverse! Check out https://verifiedjournalist.org to connect with verified journalists.
To support our mission to provide this service, please consider a monthly tip of $1 or $5 (links available on the site).
Can we get a #boost?
Curious, why didn’t Georgia (the country) move in to it’s occupied territory like the very second Ukraine moved into Russia?
Working on my #kubernetes cluster today using my 4 node computeblade.com kit that I backed. Such a great set of hardware! I did encounter the voltage bug though and fried one of my CM4s but support was on it so fast! Love these guys, highly recommend.
"This is Putin’s war against Russia. And if he doesn’t like it, if it’s making him a little uncomfortable, then there’s an easy solution: He can just get the hell out of Ukraine and call it a day."
- White House national security spokesperson John Kirby

Excellent. If that was the strategy, it's working. But I think there's even more to it here yet to be seen.

Wild but unsurprising stat for my neck of the #fediverse. Our #relay that we've been running for almost four years for the #mastoadmin of the world - 90% of the registered servers are offline. Instances come and go, but that is still wild.
Is it time for this?

Pssst: influencers struggle with Mastodon because it's harder to influence people here. It's not because this place isn't neat.
I asked a long-time political pro if he thought the press would fall meekly in line and provide stenography for this week's kinder-and-gentler Trump, and he said of course it will.

Still the superior interface for a handheld device. https://flipboard.com/users/DigitalTrends/statuses/ZlssPT7bRkeGZHv_o_1PKg:a:201375877
This happened in my model Y three weeks ago. I always have a glass break/seat belt knife dongle that is always with me just in case. And my kids all know how to pop the emergency latch. It’s a great car, but this is an absurd design defect.

Had a great call with my lawyer about this today actually. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE my Chevy Bolt, but they did wrong here and should be held accountable. https://mastodon.social/users/arstechnica/statuses/112604957411153836
A new anothology about the extreme dangers of staying on our current trajectory — global warming of 3 degrees or more. The book includes an important chapter from Mastodon's Stefan Rahmstorf (@rahmstorf).
Best of all it's free to read!

T-Mobile was once an entertaining semi-upstart in U.S. mobile phone service, but it became a sleazy operation. Customers who believed a promise about a lifetime price are the latest victims of a cartel that couldn't care less about them.
