Never mind its played in game just after being exposed to some of the horrors of Night City. Act 1 of the game deserves an award on its own

Honestly, CDPR really nailed the soundtrack of #cyberpunk2077 and I think this one song represents the game so well...

Expect some of the following to happen in the coming weeks:

- celebrities with huge follower counts pushing tiny community-run servers to their knees

- instance admin burnout; shutting down of servers

- big new servers that don't "vibe" with common rules or culture being widely defederated

- some notable account violating an instance code of conduct and throwing a fit

- lots of people ragequitting Mastodon for one reason or another

- etc.

It'll be a rough ride. Patience and strength, all.

Question for the admins: Is the Mastodon Docker composed a 'production' method of deployment? It'd save me spinning up a new VM just for a personal instance.
The next thing on my mind is, how much actual effort will it be to host my own private Mastodon instance on my own hardware? Can I get away with a few GB RAM on my Homelab?

Much like my profile on the bird site, I don't really post much, I'm much more of a passive reader.

But, I mirror the sentiment that the Fediverse is a lot more positive than the other place. My feed is actually nice to browse.

  

Good to see that Brave really gets its userbase...

Hey techie/homelab friends. This is a friendly reminder to test and check your firewall rule ordering.

This morning I was greeted with a abuse notification mail from my ISP, as it turns out my pfSense gateway had the default admin account password and some silly rule ordering it which exposed ssh to all and sundry.

Fun times...
