Ladies and gentlemen, we did it.

I'm a little nervous, but I think it's working now.

dataplatform.social is now running on Docker!

On Saturday morning, October 21st, UTC time, I'm gonna give upgrading the Mastodon server another go.

This time, rather than doing an in-place upgrade of a VM, I've successfully set up a new VM that runs Mastodon in a number of Docker containers, and I've (sort of) successfully completed a test migration of the database.

Expect 10-15 minutes of downtime, but Mastodon being Mastodon, don't be surprised if it takes a little longer.

Fingers crossed.

Every process is a circle.
Let’s talk logistics.
The ease with which I can just email Helpdesk to deploy production changes to their infrastructure is both exciting and scary.

After trying a set of increasingly complex passwords, it finally just redirects me to the (actual) Stripe Dashboard login page.

Fun fact, the real login page has a cookie banner.

I gave it some fake account login. After a long wait (probably testing the credentials in real time), it told me the information was incorrect.

Gave it another dummy password, and it asked for 2FA information.

So I entered 000000, and now it's telling me I have an insecure password, lol.

Someone put a lot of work into coding this site.

So I created a new VM just to see how deep this rabbit hole goes.

Pretty convincing, no?

The link goes to what looks like a legitimate company in Greece, but someone probably hacked into their Wordpress and added some hidden script logic.
