Just here for the florps.
Hi, everyone over 30: Who was your favorite local band when you were in highschool?
Did they put out a cassette?
Do you own a copy of that cassette?
How many other people, do you think, still own copies of that cassette?
Do you still keep up with any of the band members?
After a few false starts, we are up to 3.0.1 and in a better place to roll new updates out as they come.
I'll be moving us to daily backups today, and setting up a brutaldon instance soon!
We have elastic search! It might be resource constrained, but it exists. I'll be monitoring and balancing.
Big thanks to @danhunsaker for all his help!! Send them some good feels!
Also, our sidekiq queue is a little backlogged becuase it's retrying a bunch of jobs that failed last night while we were broken.
For users, this means stuff will be a little sluggish for a few hours. It'll start working normally after that.
Now, to write a custom theme...
This is a combo #RetroHardware and #HardwareHacking project: Running a 1980s monochrome CRT with a 6845 chip (found in a lot of Z80 and 6502 chip based machines of the time) and an Arduino Uno
It sticks everything in a folder, though, and I don't love that.
I'll make some updates.
Anyway, trade radio will be online soon.
retro.social should be back soon.
My tilde site will be up soon, although I lost a bunch of content, which makes me sad but whatever.
For future reference:
```~/ia download --search 'collection:georgeblood AND blues' --glob='[!_]*.mp3'``` will download the best available MP3 version of 78RPM records from the great 78 project.
I'll do a blog post later.
Here's a picture of one of my XT clones that I recently got working.
It's a sharp pc-7100, and it has a dead HDD, but it is beautiful.
I'm joking, of course, but in all seriousness: If any other #InstanceAdmins want to help me out with this, I'd be really appreciative (and willing to compensate financially.)
This week especially, I'm just not going to have the time to get things cleaned up and repaired the way that I want. (I'll explain why in another post, under a couple of CWs.)
Fixing this is pretty simple. I could just blow out everything I have, take a fresh database dump, and do it all again, but install it the right way this time.
I'm just not sure when I'm going to have the time to do it.
So I've got the fallout from mom's passing, plus the fact that my mastodon server is broken *and* another server I run went down with hardware problems, and work is very busy.
I just don't have much time to think this week.
So if someone wants to step in and help me get retro healthy again, I'd really appreciate it, and I'll gladly pay for your time.
