Trying to Build a Mastodon Instance 

@mawr FYI, I've tried out Proxmox VE as a virtualization solution lately at work, and I really like it. Debian 9 based, and supports ZFS for storage and CEPH for clustering!

Random thought: I am thankful to the Trump administration for one thing. They've laid bare Republicans' feelings towards minorities. There will be no more weasel words allowed after this. They're going to have to fight and say what they mean.

Vented my anger re: today on twitter mostly but still kinda pissed. This link helped me process a bit of it, though. lawfareblog.com/impeachable-of

@makyo Any of those will work. You can email me at zeta@thispartmightjustbemyusername.org

@makyo I'd be happy to give it a read and send some feedback, but it might take me a few days?

A conversation that actually happened yesterday: "The banana gun was never going to be lethal to begin with." "Well, that's a matter of how fast the bananas go. A banana travelling at orbital velocity is going to ruin anyone's day."

"Foxes blush to *incite*. They do it when they realize you're noticing them, and want you to notice them *more*."
I feel so called out right now -- in the best way.

soft warm sincere words for you click here 

Thank you all for being such wonderful things.

Thank you for being you.

Thank you for leaving a mark, for weirding up the world, just by existing.

Thank you, dear lights. Thank you so much. 💜

For example: pip is great for development, but not a good plan for end-user application installations. And many libs don't have packages in distribution repositories.

Programmers, especially Python ones: How do you chose to distribute required third party libs with an application?

FYI for anyone watching the project, I've moved development to a github organization: github.com/ArchiversAnonymous

This is so I can keep forks of the dependencies organized since a lot of useful third party libraries aren't being actively maintained by their original developers.

In smaller news, Dreamwidth pulls are now working, but I have to revamp the main git repo to pull from the new org structure, so it's a bit busted right now... XD
