chat what do you use for monitoring your servers? i'm looking for something that's small, light, not "ai-native" (🤮), and is easy to set up to watch http requests and what caddy/nginx is doing with them, and optionally/ideally other traffic like ssh and wireguard 🔄 boosts appreciated #selfhosting #sysadmin #cloud

@whitequark to people who govern you, pay you for labour, administer public services? yeah but i hope your sense of self-worth isn't predominantly based on how capitalism rolls the dice, or what complete strangers who serve as its minions think of you

@whitequark does that mean that, if you become unemployed and start running out of money, that's it, time to walk into the sea? forgive me, i don't wanna sound mean (quite the opposite), but that seems like a very unhealthy way to view life

@whitequark @letsbeworms you're not wrong for saying this is how nation states and the owning/ruling class treat people, because that's true but whether or not a king gives a fuck about me won't stop me from finding the best way forward in whatever situation i find myself in. *i* care about me, unconditionally.

@coreyspowell Not that long of an exposure, as far as astrophotography goes anyway - just 1/4 s. The amount of light captured is thanks to the wide open aperture (f/4), which also made details blurry, and the insanely high sensitivity setting (ISO 51200), which put a ton of noise over the whole image, and made a lot of stars indistinguishable from aberrant pixels :( as a photography nerd this makes me a little bit sad, especially since the settings were manual

@whitequark @letsbeworms to me, saying "disaster victims deserved to live" isn't supposed to undie them, but rather to help support the spirits of those grieving, and strengthen community more broadly. its value isn't in "i wanted them to live, but couldn't do anything to make that happen", but rather "you're not alone in thinking that was tragic and unfair"

@ignaloidas @whitequark i think that's part of the line that for me separates friends from strangers, and family from distant relatives (taking things like individual means to help into account, of course) but to me, the sayings quoted at the top refer more to how one perceives their own existence and moral value

@whitequark @letsbeworms and that's fair. in my view that's the value you're leaning on to find support for your own cause. but your own cause is there regardless of external support. it may not always be able to make progress, or feel particularly strong, but it's there. at least i hope it is. i think you deserve it.

@ipg@wetdry.world My PC audio experience: Windows: generally works but once in a while decides to fuck up your setup without you knowing, also you can't decide what plays where, also turns devices on and off and switches your defaults completely at random, also had 70 million control panels each doing something different Linux: there's a bit of crackling while an app adjusts volume in a shitty way (e.g. youtube player) and,,, that's it

Hmmm wonder why #Trump banned CNN?! “The US narrowly avoided boarding a Chinese ship based on an “entirely false” US intelligence report. That erroneous intelligence, submitted by a US Special Ops analyst, suggested the Chinese ship was transporting nuclear arms program components. The US military was preparing to board the ship, with air support, before they discovered an #AI chatbot used in the report had “inaccurately identified the material the ship was carrying.” https://arstechnica.com

@AmyZenunim 3 is what doesn't really happen. People who are savvy enough to have a fedi account (be it Mastodon or something else) already are already weighing things like terrible/nonexistent moderation, ads, data collection, etc. that happen to them on big tech social media and don't happen on Mastodon. Others either don't care and never will, or can be encouraged to move to the good side of fedi - especially when a bunch of their slightly nerdier friends leave Threads behind.
