@politico @politics-politico it's like he's actively TRYING to destroy us.

Getting wild today - put Outlook on the RIGHT side of the screen and Teams on the left. I feel like a peasant.

Having raised 6 kids I can tell you that every single sleep position for babies can cause SIDS. Strong recommendations from baby 1 turn into "OMG not that way" by baby 3. It is a tragic reality that SIDS happens. There are things you can do to minimize the risk. https://mastodon.world/users/verdantsquare/statuses/113641473498440844

@jason Author released an update to fix the issue! Was able to recover the DB.

@politico @politics-politico Well, since they were already found guilty, that goes without saying.

@politico @politics-politico But sure, let's pardon all of the traitors.

Please consider helping fund the relay. A monthly payment of $1 or $5 per month (plus CC fees) goes a long ways. See https://thedoodleproject.com/the-fediverse/ (scroll down). You can also Venmo us (at)thedoodleproject. All proceeds fund exactly this project.

Dear fellow #Mastoadmin folks and those following our #relay. With great joy, was able to resurect the relay after almost 3 weeks offline. I am so sorry for the impact to the hundreds of #fediverse servers. Everything should just start "working." Really appreciate everyone's patience and apologies again. Give us a #boost?

@potus@threads.net Well, I mean, the EU is gonna have to hold it together for the next 4 years at least, but yeah, you did really well for us these past 4 years. Kudos sir!

Tried #bluesky for a day. Compared against #threads. I hate #meta so was figuring it'd be a slam dunk. I don't get the appeal of #bluesky. #fediverse remains great for actual people. #threads is AI garbage + meta. #bluesky is...?

@politico @congress-politico "everything" is taken out of context the moment he says them outloud. What an ass.

I'm such an ass:

@w7voa was about to post - oh crap what happened, then scrolled...oh my

@politico @congress-politico ugh, could he BEEE any older? (My Chandler voice)

the fediverse now has a fast growing TikTok alternative: https://loops.video

While it remains in a pre-release beta state atm, we are testing federation and will be releasing full federation support, along with the source code once stable.

And we expect by this time next month, you will have a bright, shiny and easy to install TikTok alternative under your tree 🎄

Spread the word. Loops has arrived.

#loops

@jerry Keep the faith <3 :)

@jsonarray assuming it's fixable, yeah, it looks like upstream dependency issue. should have left well enough alone, but given the popularity of the relay, I was biasing towards "always stay patched"

@troy Yes, directly - was trying to eeek out every morsal of performance since it was such a big relay (almost 400 servers). Really bummed :(

Coming soon to an #america near us. https://mastodon.social/users/VOANews/statuses/113579186887020430

@jsonarray I don't - posted the error here: https://git.asonix.dog/asonix/relay/issues/6 started after upgrade of Ubuntu LTS. Looks like recent module updates in Rust (reqwest) had breaking changes to the author's code.

Hi #mastoadmin friends and those watching the #relay we've been hosting for years. We've now been down for about four days and still can't get the damn thing back up. Not sure how to fix. We'll cancel all recurring subscription donations and invite everyone back as soon as we can find a solution. Apologies for the downtime.

@fulelo This effing sucks :(

All done

Hi there #mastoadmin types following our #mastodon #relay. We're rebooting in a few minutes for some maintenance!

@NewsDesk @Vox Help me learn more here - I thought recess appointments were only valid during the recess, no?
