There is freedom waiting for you,
On the breezes of the sky,
And you ask

"What if I fall?"

Oh but my darling,

What if you fly?

PAY NO ATTENTION TO THAT MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN

"If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack."

Winston Churchill

Über allen Gipfeln
Ist Ruh,
In allen Wipfeln
Spürest du
Kaum einen Hauch;
Die Vögelein schweigen im Walde.
Warte nur, balde
Ruhest du auch.

-- Goethe. Wandrers Nachtlied.

Hm I need to figure out how to properly repost something from twitter over here. Was there a proxy that does this?

I swear I almost know what I am doing

I feel like I should set up my mastodon instance in a way that's like "configuration as code" in Chef of Ansible or something and not just however I can nail it together, ummmmm

How it started......... How it's going

I fixed my wikimedia bots! @artbot @[email protected]

Another day, another test uploading something

I still can't believe changing cloud storage providers was relatively straightforward -- I only had to write a multithreaded migration script and do a bunch of complex configuration and bam, done 😆

American pizza anyway

also, pineapple *definitely* belongs on pizza

well that seems to work.

go me.

Obviously, we test our cloud storage setup with a silly meme

Masto-admins: when I change .env.production, do I really have to rebuild the entire mastodon container from scratch?
