Got the server migration done and Sopuli is as good as new! Hopefully I can rest for a while.

As the instance’s owner and admin, there was a server migration that lasted for a day and nearly 8 hours. And yes, [email protected] and my Mastodon are good places to check out regarding Sopuli’s status.

Why wouldn’t I? We are living in interesting times.

Well, if anon thinks he is too late at 30+ years, it will become a self-fulfilling prophecy.

And some few weeks ago a memo leaked where Satya Nadella assured that “whatever business decision Microsoft considers, security always comes first”.

It definitely has to be summer. Around that time I feel very social.

It’s pretty concerning, as health authorities in the USA don’t seem to do enough to prevent the situation from getting worse. The dairy industry doesn’t want its profits to be touched, and several politicians seem to be more concerned about the economic impacts. Various far-right groups basically created the framework for their anti-science actions with the COVID pandemic and various anti-vaxx groups that existed before it. Therefore they will double down in their efforts to resist any kinds of mitigation efforts because of “freedom” and “do not comply”. Hell, many of them are buying raw milk in hopes of “gaining immunity” and of course “owning the libs”!

It could be said that I am already preparing. When at work, doing groceries, hitting the gym and so on, I am wearing an FFP2 mask (equivalent to N95). This is exceptional here in Finland, where many people have drunk the Kool-Aid of “COVID being over” fed by the THL, our equivalent to your CDC. The only people I have seen masking actively are people collecting bottles from streets and parks! The THL has done similar blunders about public health messaging and “studies”.

I am not losing my night’s sleep because of this, but who knows what happens in the coming months?

Amen, Sopuli wouldn’t federate with such instance either. It would introduce too much problems. Bad idea.

In case of 4chan it’s obviously other anonymous imageboards. There doesn’t seem to functionality in Lemmy that would allow for posting without accounts.

This Tumblr page listing nostalgic designs, they are also on Mastodon.

Jerry Seinfeld had a standup routine about this exact subject.

Really good, I’d say. My tech support job has gone great and I have plenty of spare time to code my own projects. Sopuli is also doing great, the performance problems have been gone and there hasn’t any need to adjust settings. And the weather is getting warmer!

For occasional chatting with Bing and translation help with DeepL.

Based on classification? Taken from a Wikipedia article concerning lemmings.

In the first two pictures it looks like Hitler and Modi are eating invisible baguettes.

Just read that woman’s manifesto and it was exactly the kind of shit that one writes after reading too much Linkola and Kaczynski, in addition to finishing the first course of philosophy in upper secondary school. The humanity is doomed because of excessive individualism and consumerism, and countries should strive economically for degrowth instead of growth. Governments should do more things for the environment and grassroots action is necessary. TikTok makes people dumb and ignorant of societal issues. “Drastic measures are required, for we have gone too far”… and the solution is to have a gun and kill a bunch of people??? These people don’t really have creative solutions for such big problems.

Explanations, explanations…

Looks like something that should be tagged as NSFW.

This will be downright disastrous and the consequences will soon manifest.
