@Nine oh your pkcell
#mastoadmin This happened to me with a live server, and I've verified it experimentally, and so I pass it on to you:
If you're upgrading to Mastodon 4.3.x, it no longer supports Postgres 9, and it's tempting to export your PSQL 9 database and import it directly into a more modern version like 12 or 16; this is supposed to auto-convert it to the new format.
Please don't. Step upward by one version at a time. The direct upgrade trashes Mastodon's performance somehow.
@himbovoorhees thanks. Postgres is such a pain in the butt
@cinnamon no I do think he should do those things
@himbovoorhees I only see vagueposting about this, what's going on?
@cinnamon I hope not he should be working on deltarune
@TonicBH fyi there's a new guitar controller coming as well https://www.ign.com/articles/pdps-new-wireless-guitar-controller-works-with-rock-band-4-and-eventually-fortnite-festival
@lyncia oh hell yeah
mitxela has built an #LED matrix earring from 52 0201(!) LEDs (i.e. 0.65 × 0.35 mm footprint) on a 9 mm diameter circular PCB. Or rather, two PCBs soldered back-to-back because this density of components basically requires a four-layer PCB with blind and/or buried vias, which would've been very expensive. The video also features a "very cheap" (3600 USD) pick & place machine. I expect these to show up in makerspaces soon.

@xerz oh shit that's potentially really useful in legalities where you can't waive copyright
@hellomiakoda EPG is a newer system that encodes the program data in a computer-readable fashion.
Teletext just encodes text and very blocky images on a limited number of pages. Stations are free to use that however they like, though usually there's program info, news and weather. For subtitles they just showed the Teletext page number and you had to navigate to it
ARD still maintain theirs, you can use it online to read German news or on a TV that supports HbbTv

@eldang that's even weirder
if I ever buy a laser printer I'm putting a power monitoring plug on it, that's for sure
