Moving servers for Misskey and Firefish
Currently I host my Misskey and Firefish instances on their own server, which I want to cancel, so I need to move them to where my personal mastodon server lives.
another dead-on-arrival blog, just like my last one
Currently I host my Misskey and Firefish instances on their own server, which I want to cancel, so I need to move them to where my personal mastodon server lives.
¹I am running a single-user instance as my main account on mstdn.fun.systems. ²I used to run a public instance on mk.zn.rs but couldn't figure out how to migrate it when I cancelled its server. ³Same as Misskey. ⁴I am running a “public” “single-user” instance on pxlfd.fun.systems. ⁵I tried installing it once and failed miserably, but I think that happened with every “successful” software that I run. ⁶I have only heard of it but am intrigued.

See this answer over at the Akamai community questions or your own .local/bin/upgrade-mastodon which is based on that answer.
Maybe actually also include that stupid script.
#!/usr/bin/env bash
sudo -u postgres pg_dump mastodon_production > ~/mastodon_production.sql
sudo su
cd /opt/mastodon
git fetch --tags
git tag -l && git tag -l|tail -n1
git checkout $(git tag -l|tail -n1)
bundle install && yarn install
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails db:migrate
RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails assets:precompile
systemctl restart mastodon-{web,sidekiq,streaming}
This is just a guideline and not meant to be run on its own.
I broke the mastodon instance set up to annoy my employer. It's good I don't care about hosting services consistently.
I have too many servers and too many bad ideas. Sometime this will backfire in a major way. Technically it already has backfired, but that is in the past and also was really stupid, and all services I currently run are not that stupid and illegal.
I am the admin of – this blog – a misskey instance – a firefish instance – a mastodon instance set up expressly to annoy my employer – another mastodon instance (broken right now)
My WordPress blog also has the fediverse integration plugin installed but it doesn't work so good.
Most of these will probably be abandoned within a week and crash and burn in a year.
Oh well.
*Games that are not games are not to be excluded
Really I only play Tetris Effect: Connected Classic Score Attack and Tricky Tower, it's all that keeps my mind going while listening to niche Australian comedy current events podcasts.
I am a simple man (he/him, cis). I see an ostensibly young woman on the fediverse (federated universe, decentralized social media) with a cute anime avatar and Japanese name, and I immediately wanna smash.
Now. I am very aware of my own limitations and the zero possible realities in which this scenario ever happens. But a man can dream! And read another raunchy manga on fakku (CW 18+)!
Prostitution is legal in Germany. There's a brothel down the street from where I work. I don't know their prizes, I've never been there. I also don't really wanna go there. Or to any brothel. Feels weird.
Unfortunately I lack the financial ressources to just order an escort to my home or a hotel.
Yes.
CW for furious descriptions of male masturbation (tame)
This is the most likely outcome. My masturbatory practices are twofold. I first jump on my dakimakura (currently dressed in Kirino Kosaka from Oreimo) and vigorously hump her for two minutes. Once I'm close to cumming, I get up and run to the bathroom where I jerk with some toilet paper and ejaculate.
This is my process.
