So Mastodon and Scuttlebutt are Twitter and Facebook of fedivers?

The CW feature on Mastodon makes it basically THE BEST social media platform for talking about movies and TV and not spoiling anyone.

If you have friends who complain about having to leave social media when a new movie comes out, perhaps this feature could convince them to try masto.

They stuck me in an institution
Said it was the only solution
To give me the needed professional help
To protect me from the enemy, myself
It doesn't matter, I'll probably get hit by a car anyway

Ooo the update that came after release of Ubuntu 18.04 fixed my wifi

@gargron it's amazing. The rage scenes are so ๐Ÿ˜

is Joomla so fucked up or just most of the devs don't understand the tool they use?

@espectalll and than there is Google Fuchsia which is intended to replace Android and Linux as a kernel for this OS

After few months of diaspora to Windows land I came back to using Linux. Installed Debian - internet works sketchy. I have low and high ping at the same time (2 packets with 14ms, 1 with ~1000ms). Ok, time to try Ubuntu. 17.10 same bug,.18.04 same story. Turned of power saving, installed wicd. Nothing helped. So now I'm using old android phone as wifi dongle ๐Ÿ˜‚

This is interesting comment about decentralized social networks - news.ycombinator.com/item?id=1 and I think it would be very easy to put a shady instance just to collect user data. Just like the Cambridge Analytica did with Facebook

@espectalll for me they starting to copy the shitty candy-like design of iOS. Sadly MS back out from mobile race. Windows Phone had some good, innovative design features. From OSS community can't see anyone to compete against the iOS/Android duo.

@thog @sn0w Docker is an absolutely fucking genius solution to the problem of configuration management. I like to think of docker more of a configuration management system than a containerization system because it's just so fucking good at it. After years of ansible and chef being FUCKING SHIT someone thought... Oh why don't we just version control the ENTIRE FUCKING FILESYSTEM and then they made docker. Tue fact. Docker is the single most genius idea in sysadmin since linus laid down the holy gospel of git. The networking and isolation and other shit is cool but docker is fucking awesome at making me rant at FUCKING 1AMm i'm not CRAZY noU

Hopefully today will come part that will let me hook Wii to monitor. Bought it last Saturday and I'm anxious to play on it

Interesting thing, for PHP autocompletion VSCode works better than NeoVIM with LSP plugin

Finally woke up and started doing something. Slept for total of 12h ๐Ÿคทโ€โ™‚๏ธ

Time to get out of the bed, but after the move and some work catchup I'm to tiered for everything :(

Remember, yesterday I told you about importing big mysql dump? Yep, it's still going. It's close to 24h of importing. I need a better laptop at some point ๐Ÿ˜‚

Half day of importing 1.9GB dump of mysql and it's not done ๐Ÿ˜ญ

@starbreaker currently I'm using Windows 64bit distro of Emacs. Was playing with mobaXterm (has Xserver built-in) but that didn't go well and was freezing on fetch packages from melpa. On free time I'll check VcXsrv.
