What happened with fosstodon?
Can someone make a quick summary please? I just quickly read that fosstodon must be blocked because someone with relevance there is a nazi and not being kicked out or something
Thank you Gary
Making sure restic backups are right
I am quite worried about losing information and not being able to recover it from the backups, so I am trying to nail the best automated way to make sure the backups are good.
Restic comes with a check
command, that according to the documentation here has this two "levels":
In plain words, I understand this as: The data you uploaded to the repository is still that data.
Now my question is, do you think this is enough to trust the backups are right?
I was thinking about restoring the backup in a temporary location and running diff
on random files to check the files match the source, but I don't know if this is redundant now.
How do you make sure you can trust your backups?
Why nobody mentions samba?? That is the only thing I knew

My first services were running on an old laptop from 2006/2007 standing on an old leather chair in a corner of a room. The laptop was standing on four old and used skateboard wheels so there was some space between the laptop and the leather.
Humble goal, to keep increasing the number of healthy plants in my apartment without having any mass extinction event. Right now I'm close to 30 plants.
Top 1 for me would be a strong backup mechanism, and by that I mean something that is tested. Currently I have restic in place but I don't even know if in case of a disaster the backups are ok.
And considering my lack of time, I would be happy with just that.
This is so relatable, I've carried my bag of stickers while moving houses three times by now.
Looks very nice
How come he has a cello if he is also playing the drums?
This is very true, last time I played chess IRL I was struggling with perspective
Arch Linux is the best time to take care of the kids are in the same boat as well as the other day in the morning person to be back home
Looks very good! Nice job!
Seems to be back now!
Pleroma git repository is unavailable
The git repository is unreachable since a few hours ago, when I turned off my instance for the first time months to upgrade it, removed the docker image and was cloning the source code to build a fresh one. In the middle of the clone operation the repository went down. How can I be so unlucky?
It is time to take refuge in the Subscribed tab of your Lemmy app or choice
Why do I even try it, now I want to remove half of my repositories lol
I just did my personal research, this is shady, my personal take is that this is likely a scam.
Count me among the skeptical, I will check the team social media profiles.
At what hour you go to sleep?
1 am!
My advice would be, be pragmatical, an error on a backup script I did not notice wiped the time tracking data I had been collecting on my self hosted database for over a year. I got really anxious at first, because of my mistake and because of the data lost. But at the end of the day... Who cares, life goes on, this is only a hobby.
App Idea: Location History
I like the fact that my Android phone records my location timeline from Google Maps, but the fact that this is stored in Google servers creeps me out.
I know you can download the entire location history database from Google so I was planning on building a custom app to store and browse this data.
I was also curious if there would be the possibility of making the phone send locations to this app instead of Google, but I don't know much about Android and I don't know if this would be possible.
What do you think about it? Is there already an app like this? Do you think this is a good idea?

Disney Renaissance. Was it for videogames too?
When I was a kid, during the 90s I lived what it is considered the Disney Renaissance: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disney_Renaissance
And I was wondering if this was happening with Disney videogames as well. Some very high quality games came to my mind, like Aladdin and The Lion King for 16 bits consoles, Hercules for the PS1? And so.
Do you think there was an equivalent to Disney Renaissance un games during the 90s? And if so, what games would define it?

Anyone remembers this one?
Why so many POST requests?
I've been running my self-hosted one user Pleroma (like Mastodon) instance. When I discovered Lemmy I started following some communities from it and also posted some comments.
Since then lemmy.ml makes one request per second to my /inbox url.
Can someone who knows ActivityPub explain why is necessary one request per second always? What are all these POST requests for?
On top of that, is there any way to tell a server or a relay to stop sending information to my inbox? Like if for example I followed someone in that server, but I don't follow them anymore, is there any way to tell the remote server to stop? If I start returning a 403 or something like that will it stop?
My experience with Lidarr
As much as I like radarr, lidarr has some problems radarr doesn't. Some bands nowadays do not release albums and directly release singles on YouTube or Spotify, so the albums organization doesn't work that well anymore.
On top of that, the content you find in the trackers is very heterogeneous, entire albums as a single track, discographies as zip files, different file formats, single albums... and it seems to confuse lidarr all the time so it cannot figure out what is what.
What do you use for your music collections? How do you organize them?
Do you run locally?
I was curious, do you run Stable Diffusion locally? On someone else's server? What kind of computer do you need to run SD locally?
Essential reads for new parents?
Hello everyone! I'm about to become a parent in a few months and I was wondering what books would you recommend reading to get myself prepared. Is there a new parents bible or something like It? The baby won't come with instructions. Thanks!
