Tomorrow is the day that you can watch #TheFallout on @hbomax. I heard many good things about it.
Tomorrow is also the day that I'll start being jealous of people in the US, Canada and New Zealand, since they get to see this film, but on @hbomaxnl I can't. 😢
The Fallout begins exclusively streaming on @hbomax tomorrow.

Learning new stuff about myself every day. I already knew that I somehow in my formative years missed out on learning to interact normally with friends and I'm slowly getting to terms with the fact that that side of being human, i.e. being a social being with close friends and relationships, is closed off to me. But what I don't like about myself is how jealous I get seeing videos of other people having fun interacting with friends. Why can't I just be happy for them that they have a group where they belong? Why am I like this?
Anyway, sorry to be so heavy. I'm ok, don't worry.
Mobilizon is some groups server marketed as an events server (you can create events as yourself or as a group) which is built with Pleroma as starting point and looks very very good. I tried to use the demo instance, but failed in a few things, Like following a group from Friendica, becoming a member from Friendica and deleting a group.
The self hosting instructions seem very clear and are basically the same as Pleroma. It allows having multiple identities (profiles) to separate your professional and friends interactions, like Friendica used to have.
I'll look into it again another time.

Often heard complaints and their workarounds:
- "Twitter doesn't give you posts in chronological order and inserts 'posts you may also like' based on their algorithm." Not if you select the 'newest posts first' timeline, use the website on a mobile device and hold the device in portrait position rather than landscape. Also when you use lists, it is always chronological and doesn't have adverts.
- "iTunes uses DRM." If you use iTunes on Windows and download the mp3 files you bought, the files are DRM-free.
- "Instagram no longer allows you to see a post if you're not logged in." If you remove the user name from the url, you get a publicly visible page again.

I have similar experiences. But to request $5m to cover the price of two DVDs seems a bit much.
Hollywood does however need to wake up to the fact that many people watch films for the actresses (and I guess actors) that appear in them and not because of the producers or directors. Marketing often seems to assume that the cast is not important.

Switched on caching for the networked filesystems (EFS/NFS) that I use, so they are now backed by a local block device. It isn't any faster, but it feels better knowing that it's cached...
Essentially added the ,fsc mount option, installed the cachefilesd package, uncommented the RUN=yes line in /etc/default/cachefilesd. The directory /var/cache/fscache is filling up, so it's doing something.
One thing that is slow over EFS (NFS) is restarting an Elixir or Nodejs server (running them is fine). These access many files, so the network latency adds up. With a cache, this is still the same; it needs to check whether the files are changed after all. Running PHP applications from a networked filesystem is actually very fast, despite what the internet says; opcache does its thing rather well.
I stepped down as a Pleroma maintainer today.
Thanks to everyone who has been there for me for the past 3 years, it was a blast. But things change and I think it's time I go my own way.

I was ready to watch #Donkeyhead (by and with #AgamDarshi) on #Netflix which I thought I remembered came out today. The film, not Netflix. But I guess I'm wrong, or maybe it's in the US only.
So it's #TheLastLetterFromYourLover with #FelicityJones instead.

Interesting, even though I don't use Funkwhale yet. Especially the first point seems to apply more generally to fediverse servers. I think with current settings I'm ok, but I'll check some more. These are the questions for servers like mine, I think:
- Does your server proxy remote media to be included in a visible post and does it check the media is indeed remote and is actual media. It's my belief that on my servers the answers are 'no, n/a' and 'yes, yes'.
- Does your server show link previews in a visible post and does it sanitise the included information? Here it is for me 'yes, yes' I think.
Hey everyone! o/A few months ago, we had a security audit of Funkwhale performed as part of our funding agreement. Due to the recent changes to our structure we've not had time to talk about it, so let's do that now!

![A comic strip in three panels of Pepper&Carrot, colored and digitally painted.
Panel 1:
Large shot on the back of Pepper, she stands in front of a black board, a stick of white chalk in her hand. She has a proud pose because she filled the black board with many line of TODO. Every items are visible by their square boxes ready to check when task will be complete. The board has a large title: "TODO LIST FOR A FRESH START TO A NEW YEAR!". Carrot look at the scene, curious about the board.
Panel 2:
Close-up on Pepper's face, she is full of hope and good energy. She says with enthusiasm: "I'm sure this can all be done in a week!"
Panel 3:
Narrator: "Two weeks later..."
A wide view on Pepper's Room, she decided to break the board with an axe, she walk away the debris of the board, red of anger. She probably couldn't manage her TODO list after even two weeks and decided to destroy it out of frustration. Carrot is surprised at her reaction.
