protip: don't use Scaleway. I wanted to believe it's cool but.. they're just not ready. Half the features are barely thought out, many useful things are forgotten, most of it is unfinished. It's still not much more than a very lucrative alpha-phase to me.
- No 2FA;
- Very cheap CPU (C2750);
- Random SSD performances;
- Panel crashes randomly;
- Servers and data get lost apparently?
- No real project/account internal network;
- Firewall needs *hard reboots* to update;
- IPv6 needs luck to work;
Boost my toot so i know it's real

In the US. Anyone have any reccs for graphic novels good for a pro civil rights 12 year old black teen femme who lives in San Francisco? She is comics curious. I would like to start her off with good impressions. Feminist, empowered, self-assured stories!

Instagram: My life is a party.
Snapchat: My life is a quirky TV show.
Facebook: My life turned out great!
Twitter: We're all going to die.
Mastodon: Don't worry, while we are on a quirky, meandering path towards an inevitable apocalypse, we might as well enjoy the ride and show eachother some love in an unorthodox, yet irresistible manner, not in any way hindered by considerations of style, identity or consistency.

Happy to announce the release of Code Shifter, sci-fi fiction aimed at kids with elements of real Clojure code in it http://www.codeshifterbook.com/
Yes, there are languages other than english on the federated timeline, quel horreur!!. This is a feature, not a bug. Insisting that it is only english is horrible for more reasons than I have space to talk about here.
If you do want to suggest something to get a timeline where you can read all the posts don't be a racist dickbag while you do it.
Example: asking for language tags on toots may actually be useful, saying something about escaping the rice and sushi is fucking terrible
A kickstarter for a big data effort (and smartphone app(s)) to try to get the conservatives in the wallet. https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1415233260/resist-persist-fight-buyblue/
So like, I know my bank has my best interests (or perhaps its own) in mind when it refuses to take a mobile deposit of a check that's missing a corner. The government issued this check, but in doing so somehow shaved a corner off. The problem is that I already endorsed the check which means it's almost as good as cash, so when I transport it to the bank to be inspected for deposit, I will be carrying around cash that I didn't plan on carrying. Thanks, coders.
:joy: Good news: Hidden piles are only 5% or less my problem!
Yesterday I managed to review and file the entire backlog of Dad's known papers (since 2014), excepting some of the more well-hidden piles. Today I will do the same with my own paperwork from the same timeframe, and also investigate the more well-hidden piles. It's not virtuous to let it pile up, but finally getting around to it is more virtuous than lighting a huge bonfire. But the impulse is sure there. #xpost
lifehack: if you say "I'll be right back" as you leave a room, you can say "as the prophecy foretold" when you re-enter
Instance admins, I've got settings set to WEB_CONCURRENCY=4 and MAX_THREADS=5 on sidekiq. Here's what my dashboard looks like. I'm not sure how to make heads or tails of whether I need more workers or threads. https://cute.group/media/6KQlgwiblNahzJVFBmc
@stickypaws it looks great, don't worry about failures, you can look at retries/dead to find interesting stuff sometimes, if enqueued grows and you have too much unusued CPU add concurrency/threads. Best I found is concurrency=(amount of cores/cpu threads) threads=10-50
