Why am I getting more out-of-memory events now memory has increased? Current working assumption is that 'some process' starts up and uses memory based on ram totals, rather than ram available, thereby not taking other running processes into account. With small ram sizes this caused small memory usage spikes which were covered by the swapfile. But larger ram, under these assumptions, causes larger spikes, which with a smaller or no swapfile could not be accommodated. But I don't know whether this is right or which process it is.
One argument against running too much stuff on a single resource (server, file share, etc). It's not as easy to assign blame.
How about some #Studies of stills from the TV show Wednesday? Here are some scenes with nice composition/lighting for you to have a go at! Happy painting!
(There's nothing hugely spoilery in there but I've hidden the images just in case)

When you're busy creating EFS volumes and are interrupted by an email from AWS saying that an action on EFS volumes is required, it takes a while to realise these two things are not related.
(There's a new version of efs-utils you should use to avoid a race-condition. This was communicated earlier and I've already done that, but just now there was an update to the communication.)
Apparently having the worker processes of four unrelated server programs running next to those server programs on the same node is not ideal. No matter how much memory the node has, the out-of-memory killer will eventually kill the web server. It seems that the worker processes look at how much memory is in the machine and use it, not at how much memory is left unused in the machine.
I've reinstated the swapfile and changed the cron schedule of the workers to not happen at the same time anymore. That was a bit optimistic...
@financialtimes is reporting that #Mastodon inventor @Gargron has so far rejected five approaches by US-based #investors to take a piece of Mastodon. Seeking to retain its (our) #nonprofit status he has rejected these approaches.
If you have the ability support your instance/server by a regular (small) donation to ensure we can make sure our & #Rochko's vision of a #socialmedia unlike other places can be maintained... its worked for #wikipedia it can work here!

"JavaScript heap out of memory"
No! Not you too!
(I didn't even know Javascript also had a heap to run out of)
@Beko Pharm Apparently from nodejs v12 onwards it automatically sets the heap limit dependent on the machine. I guess as a simple user I had sort of assumed everything automagically to be correct, but that's from v12 onwards. The internet says that in browsers you have hardly any control over the max heap setting, while in node.js you can use a command line switch, which is documented as 'not part of the official api so likely to change'. For now it will just be more RAM in the VPS...
I guess I should have known since I did a bit of nodejs development in the past...

Also upgraded this Friendica, to version 2022.12. It went smooth, though the database update took a bit longer than normal. Normally I don't notice any downtime, now it was busy for a few minutes.
I also enabled the new 'fancybox' add-on, which is very neat!
#Friendica
Upgraded this Pleroma to version 2.5.0, the latest stable version. Other than previous updates, it appeared necessary to stop the server before doing the mix deps.get rather than later, before the mix ecto.migrate as I usually do. Some file was in use. The instructions don’t specify when to stop the server.
Also, there was an error involving rebar3 (the tool was probably not recompiled after upgrading erlang/elixir a while back) which could be solved by running:
sudo -u pleroma MIX_ENV=prod -s -- eval 'mix local.rebar'and checked with:
sudo -u pleroma MIX_ENV=prod -s -- eval '~/.mix/rebar3 --version'I found this command in my history, so I had this problem before and there may be better ways of solving the error, but this worked.
Highlight in this version for me based on the change notes: lists!

A long interview with Jenna Ortega at a screening of Wednesday, during what I think is a fashion show. She talks of course about Wednesday, but also other aspects of her career.
And I also don't know why the video is mostly on its side and why the beginning is edited to be at the end. As far as I can tell, this is the official recording.

[UPDATE]: FIXED by @RinCat 😍 Thanks you all for feedback! 👍

So, I had a kernel panic while I was recording a video tutorial with OBS, and I had to hard reboot the computer because everything froze. Unfortunately, the ongoing record before the crash was corrupted at reboot.
It's an important piece of the video, and I can't retake it. So it ruined my long video tutorial... 😭

@Paul Jakes I didn't even mean that... But I guess that's also true, as I'm here following the people I'm also following on Twitter...
But I was talking about using both my Pleroma and Friendica accounts to follow the same people, in case one breaks, but also to get migration notifications, which don't work on Friendica.
I'm also on Zap and Osada where channels are technically linked using 'Nomadic Identities' and thought that was similar.

I don't know why the main socials of His Dark Materials are promoting today as being the premiere of series three, since we're already four episodes in, but I guess they have a bit of a UK focus. Anyway, UK people, in about twenty minutes it starts for you on BBC one!
And stick with it, series three takes a few episodes to get into it.

Wow, Twitter now disallows all links to other social media, including Instagram and Facebook, also to non-social media sites like linktree, including just mentioning handles without link or giving a plaintext description of your link or handle.
What is still allowed, is automatic crossposting to Twitter from the other site and including a link like that.
I guess putting your social media handles on your own site, and putting your own site in your bio's, is the way to go.
How they see the difference between automatic crossposting to Twitter with link back and on the other hand posting a link out, I don't know. I also don't know why they include linktree in the ban, as it is just like a personal homepage listing your identities.

if you see "me" messaging about joining a Telegram or buying crypto, please double check the Mastodon server they're on!
I'm only on hachyderm.io, and there's now someone trying to impersonate me on a different instance, asking people to join their telegram.

I started watching The Act because the lead character is played by Joey King. I noticed AnnaSophia Robb as well, which is great. I didn't recognise Patricia Arquette and I'm ashamed.
Luckily 'the twist' came in the first episode already rather than at the end of the season, since I suspected something along those lines early on.
