ugh apparently my old mediawiki install was old enough that when I try to load it into the new version of mediawiki, it says it's too old to upgrade

so I guess I'm upgrading to 1.38.7 first

a version so old that wikimedia doesn't show it on the download page anymore, just tells you to upgrade

I'M TRYING

okay it's working now. I just need to remember how I fucked mediawiki into not allowing registrations, so I can re-enable it and then make my new user an admin

@foone I just checked out your personal website. Nice! Then I clicked on Twitter info Threads. Wow! Massive postings! But it immediately occurred to me that all that is sitting in X/Twitter system, and I don't trust this company to remain around for long. I would kindly suggest those postings get copied elsewhere, ideally on your website. Thoughts?

@thebluewizard it's planned (has been since I left twitter) but sadly my twitter archive is too large to be loaded properly by the usual tools, and I just haven't had the energy to deal with it so far
