Dobedobedo I need a post with an image in it to test something... so here, have a picture of my boat.
Yeah I did that for testing something not realizing I'm not at home on my unmetered fiber connection but on my boat on a 4G setup that has limited data (well, 350Gb). Ate up a good chunk of it and had to buy some extra because I couldn't watch movies anymore all of a sudden 🤣
Refactoring Vortex, again, because of course my SQL is rusty AF and I ended up with indexes larger than the table itself. Not ideal, of course!

Also still considering doing a Jetstream-as-MQTT/AMQP thing...
2/2 my straps and my lines to go strap things down in the pissing rain. Buy a boat they said, it'll be fun, they said...

(note that this is the 4th boat I've owned and it's apparent that I'll never learn :P)
Oh, fun. It's very rainy today. And windy. Very fucking windy. And of course it's coming from a direction it rarely comes from. My wheelhouse roof (which is for all intents and purposes now detached from the rest of my boat) flapped. A few times. So I got to play the whole shit shit shit where's 1/2
Yep, they are - except if you tell them that then suddenly you're anti-whatever and then the dogpile begins, or you get blocked and shit gets talked behind your back, and so on. It's very... highschool clique. And I barely remember highschool, too old for that shit :D

yeah and those people are stupid!
PDS doesn't emit anything for a blob, btw. Not saying a non-reference implementation won't, but "just a blob" isn't a record, it has to be referred to by something.
Yeah, except then you'll get a fair few people falling all over eachother to tell you it's not ATproto enough and how it all sucks :D

the atproto community needs to better highlight/promote the fact that using atproto in an app doesn’t have to be all or nothing — we should encourage people to use atproto accounts & oauth even for services that aren’t going to read/write much from the PDS but rather a private centralized database
Yeah that is still a ton of money... I wonder what they're running it on :D
That's pretty pricey, either it's a very large instance or someone's fudging the pricing some. For that money you can have pretty much an entire ATproto stack (relay, bluesky appview) for like 100k users easy enough with room to spare.
It does, but it's based on Nixery which, well, it works for a lot of apps but I need a pipeline that builds a Perl app, and then does a docker build/docker push and it seems running a docker build job "doesn't go very well(tm)".
2/2 the good thing is that I'll probably be able to fire up the public instance tomorrow and put things on Tangled (although it'll still be a mirror of my gitlab because I need the ability to build docker containers which Tangled doesn't let me do right now (unless that got fixed recently))
Oof. Had to reset Vortex' database today because I made a booboo trying to test something so, back to square one! But it's okay. Got some metrics yesterday, 8 hours of firehose takes up about 12Gb - so a day would be about 36Gb (let's make it 40Gb). It also depends on how busy ATproto land is... 1/2
Don't say it too loud because you'll get shit from people who *insist* that won't be the case. The sheer mental gymnastics required to assume that Bluesky can't ban you from Bluesky's house is... oof.

People are receiving "My daughter Amal" posts in their mentions from a Gaza account. It is not a reply nor does it seem to have a mention. Yet it gets into your mentions!

I investigated 1 post and it is 100% scam. There are 809 invisible mentions in this post! So this goes to mentions of 809 users.
Simple, you put a space at the beginning of your post, and just set the start/end byte range for the mention to 0-1 and presto. Apparently it's valid to do this according to the lexicon, but Bluesky's appview doesn't actually do any sort of sanity checking on it so it will happily process it.
Work on your sites and servers tomorrow or know that you bring great shame to your family!

(too much?)
Oh I was gonna say I too have done it, but haven't deployed it yet 🤣
The source of the backlinks may not have all the follows since it doesn't backfill (yet) :)
Resolve them how? Like, you give something an at-uri and you get a record back?
It'll go up on Tangled soonish(tm), just need to clean up some cruft and then it'll be available for everyone to look at and go "dude, what. the. fuck." 🤣
... really insulate very well. Let alone all the vents I've got. I guess I need to go pull out the duct tape and cardboard again to close them all off.

And I still need to do copious amounts of greasemonkeying ideally before it gets too cold and rainy during the day... oh dear. The pressure!
So it seems fall has fallen for real, went from 20C during the day to what appears to be about 9C at night. Which is quite the change. Had to pull out my little space heater to keep my feet warm 🤣 On a side note, boats are absolutely awful in that regard because an inch of fiberglass doesn't...
