Recent twts from kat

so i had the idea of adding a page to my otherwise single page girl on the moon personal site that featured my more notable projects, but it’s been hours and i CAN’T THINK OF ANYTHING TO ADD THAT I HAVEN’T ALREADY MENTIONED. i just host other people’s stuff!!!

In-reply-to » @kate @eldersnake @abucci -- I've already spoken to @xuu on IRC about this, but the new SqliteCache backend I'm working on here, what are your thoughts regarding mgirations from old MemoryCache (which is now gone in the codebase in this branch). Do you care to migrate at all, or just let the pod re-fetch all feeds? 🤔

@prologic@twtxt.net alright! i can try that… whenever i am capable of upgrading and figure out how to lol

In-reply-to » 7k words of docs on deploying a livejournal folk. you absolutely want to read 7 thousand words of me forcing dreamwidth into production shape in docker https://stash.4-walls.net/selfhostdw/

@bender@twtxt.net awww thank you :‘))) you all are too nice!!! i really wanted to share how i did this because i think i’m the first person to publicly attempt a production instance of dreamwidth code in docker, so i’m glad i did a good job at documenting it!!!!!!!

In-reply-to » Conduwit is set to archive on GitHub. It was my favourite Matrix server, which I still self host. I think I am going to get off Matrix altogether now.

@bender@twtxt.net NOOOO i self host an XMPP server and also revolt but as much as i love XMPP (gajim client reminds me of using skype as a kid highkey) i don’t use it much and revolt is a bitch to maintain. like i broke revolt file uploads and it stayed that way for months until literally last week lmao. i never bothered with matrix tbh maybe i should’ve but it seems not worth it

@prologic@twtxt.net hm would there be any loss with the re-fetch option? i wouldn’t mind either but i’d like to hold onto what i got if possible! but if it IS possible but also really annoying to do i’ll just do the re-fetch of feeds because i’m lazy af LMAO

In-reply-to » guys omg the people behind pico.sh are so nice ;_; one of the people running it emailed me to let me know i had what was likely a malfunctioning (or well, not working as intended) script that was spawning the same SSH tunnel over and over and they wanted to give me a heads up.

@movq@www.uninformativ.de no no it’s ok i say it because it’s true also it’s funny to me hahah! don’t be sorry

@movq@www.uninformativ.de i’m usually depressed so when i’m doing stuff like this i guarantee it’s fueled by coffee and adderall lmao

oh out of boredom yesterday i made my blog available via markdown files too so you can use charmbracelet/glow to read them in your terminal :)

basically i just set up a file directory on a path of my blog, organized the MD files by year, and so in theory you can navigate to that path and choose a folder, then copy a link to a markdown post and run this:

glow -p https://bubblegum.girlonthemoon.xyz/md/2025/2025-03-31%20premature%20reflections%20on%20sudden%20responsibility.md

and then as long as you have glow installed, you can read my posts from the terminal :D it’s so cool

guys omg the people behind pico.sh are so nice ;_; one of the people running it emailed me to let me know i had what was likely a malfunctioning (or well, not working as intended) script that was spawning the same SSH tunnel over and over and they wanted to give me a heads up.

and i felt SO BAD because i worried i was straining their service or something so i disabled my 4 tunnels (they were serving little SSH games and services) and got back to them.

but i just woke up to THE NICEST EMAIL EVER reassuring me that i was actually using it as intended, it was just my script that was having problems, and they even said that if it was intended to work that way it was fine and they just wanted to let me know!

so i restarted the tunnels but have since added lockfiles as safeguards so that when the script is run it’ll check if it’s already running :D

In-reply-to » @kat I think it happens if you don't follow them. Replies used to be broken if so, but not sure if @prologic ever fixed that. I used not to follow him, so that he would see the broken mentions, and feel shame (he didn't, he is shameless! LOL), but ever since the re-creation of my account I just decided to follow, so I don't know if the issue is fixed or not.

@bender@twtxt.net i had to go to your instance to see the root post because I ACCIDENTALLY MUTED THE THREAD LMFAOOOOO but interesting re: unfollowing!

In-reply-to » This weekend (as some of you may now) I accidently nuke this Pod's entire data volume 🤦‍♂️ What a disastrous incident 🤣 I decided instead of trying to restore from a 4-month old backup (we'll get into why I hadn't been taking backups consistently later), that we'd start a fresh! 😅 Spring clean! 🧼 -- Anyway... One of the things I realised was I was missing a very critical Safety Controls in my own ways of working... I've now rectified this...

@prologic@twtxt.net been there done that with several of my docker volumes to the point of me just not doing docker volumes anymore and manually mounting folders now LMAO
