Uptime update


So we're at the next hurdle in keeping Friendica.World stable.

We now hit an issue where a cleanup job hangs the database. The database query it fires takes too long, and after a while this starts locking other processes in the database. Then the database connections fill up to the maximum, and the site becomes available.

I've raised an issue for this : github.com/friendica/friendica… and someone proposed a workaround they are using, we might try that as well until a fix has been created.

@mastoblind Any blind folks have experience with Linux desktop environments? I have thoroughly enjoyed Bash over SSH for many years. I want to switch away from Windows entirely, but my experience with screen reader accessibility on Linux desktops has been mixed at best. Any tips or advice? Has the situation improved substantially? Is one desktop environment better than others for blind users?

I downloaded the #gnome-iso from the #Bazzite website. There were no significant problems during the installation. However, when the PC started for the first time after the installation, an error occurred due to the #secure #boot. I then deactivated the Secure Boot, restarted the computer and lo and behold, everything worked perfectly. Then I read through the documentation and took a closer look at the mistake, which is very well explained there.

docs.bazzite.gg/general/instal…

After the changes in the #BIOS regarding the Secure Boot, I started again and everything was fine.

Steam was already pre -installed and I just had to register and then download my games again. After several attempts, I found that the mouse was not recognized in some games. When researching further, I found that it may be a problem with Gnome.

Danach habe ich GNOME deinstalliert und bin auf KDE umgestiegen. Und siehe da, alles funktioniert einwandfrei. Ich habe ein kurzes Video ohne Kommentar hochgeladen, das sieht schon mal nicht schlecht aus. :baz: 😜

After that I uninstalled Gnome and switched to KDE. And lo and behold, everything works perfectly. I uploaded a short video without comment, that doesn't look bad :baz: 😜

Linux UI should copy Amiga OS

As my first (that I owned) childhood computer was Amiga 500+ it is only natural that I have affection for it. But even beyond that - I believe that its user interface still holds up today and I would love to see Linux steal some of that awesomeness.

I was catching up with my youngest uncle, who is a big computer nerd like myself. I told him I had finally ditched windows for #linux, (ok, technically I tried doing it back in 2002 but it wasn't ready for primetime back then). He just sent me a copy of The Linux Phrasebook in the mail. While I'm pretty comfortable in the command line, I think this might be a required item for anyone dipping their toes into *nix for the first time.

Help me to find a new Peertube instance


Dear Network,

I am searching for a new PeerTube Instancefor n816 Life project to complete the instance I already own on infosec.exchange (video.infosec.exchange/a/tofm2…).

Topic: professional Life Sciences video.

Technical specs requested:
- 200 GB available space (illimited is better)
- Immediate account creation (a couple of hours max, urgent need)

I know some lists of PeerTube instances already exist, but I am rather searching for real users experiences, especially concerning the account creation delay.

Thank you for your insights.

yeah, it is pretty solid stability wise; the only issue is holding back kernel updates and some oddities with mounting new datasets and such that I find a little awkward.

I suppose I could use Ubuntu, but I am a spite motivated creature and two years on from the absolutely awful interview experience Canonical forced on me, I’m still mad about it and refuse to use Ubuntu 😅

in reply to Amber

it varies a lot depending on needs (hardware, packages, need for cutting edge well integrated software, etc); currently Arch and Fedora here and there, but NixOS has been in the mix in the past and I have nothing against Debian. I feel like there’s one I’m missing. Oh! Gentoo 😂
But yeah, it usually boils down to the individual machine and what I need out of it. I guess that’s one reason I’m not too into the idea of keeping more than one machine dependent on an out of tree kernel module (this is technically true for proxmox, too, but they obviously handle it on their end rather than me having to use the AUR on Arch, for example).

Slowly trying things out...


I've been playing around with the webapp a bit. Trying to update my info, finding people to follow. I've not used FB for years now, so I don't know how much this app differs from what FB was/is these days. Some things make sense, some I need to learn about.

I'll try to write a better profile soon, and do a proper introduction post. Tomorrow will be a busy day, so I'll probably have some time this Friday to finally get things sorted better.

Thanks to those that connected with me already! 🌹 Looking forward to meeting more folks and learning more about this part of the FediVerse.

Have a good day everyone! Catch you all later!

Rebellion against the U.S. oligarchs


Rebellion against the U.S oligarchs

In my rebellious journey against the US oligarchs, Zuck (Facebook) and Bezos (Amazon), I have managed to find alternatives to:

Facebook with Friendica
Twitter with Mastodon or Blue-sky
Google Chrome with Brave
Amazon Music with Qobuz
Spotify (who have donated £150,000 to the orange man who should not be named) with Qobuz

I can confirm that there are very good alternatives and, they are better, because they don't have ads and have better ethos. My journey was interesting and not complicated.

Qobuz has even automatically downloaded my playlists. Impressive.

Curious about downloading #AI model weights

We usually download these pre-trained models from sites like HuggingFace GGUF, Ollama, or vLLM. The companies that build these things tell you if you want to use their models locally, just download their apps or Python scripts, then run a command and it pulls the models for you. Great, nice and easy.

But what if the servers are down, or being blocked by the government or something? Is there anyone out there BitTorrent-ing model weights and paramaters like #DeepSeekR1 ?

in reply to Ramin Honary

I had thought (naively) that was what was novel about DeepSeek.
Ie. there was messaging that you could build the whole thing locally
and train it locally too.
But, that doesn't seem to be the case?

Hangover is the #opensource project that pairs Wine with emulation tech like #FEX, #QEMU and #Box64 for being able to run on other non-x86/x86_64 architectures. #AArch64 remains the primary focus of Hangover but there's also been work carried out on POWER and RISC-V support too.

Ich bin #neuhier auf fedi.at. Im Fediversum bin ich schon ein gutes Jahrzehnt unterwegs. Jetzt habe ich mir hier einen Account angelegt, in der Hoffnung mich in meinem Heimatland Österreich besser vernetzen zu können.

Mich treiben vor allem technisch sociale Fragen um. Besonders die zunehmende Abhängigkeit gegenüber internationalen Großkonzernen besorgt mich.

Ich setze mich für digitade Selbstbestimmung ein, was für mich auch freie (im Sinne von Freiheit und nicht notwendigerweise gratis) Soft- und Hardware beinhaltet. Hauptberuflich entwitkle ich auch, leider nicht so frei wie ich gerne würde aber zumindest muss ich nur in Ausnahmefällen Windows anfassen.

Auch übers Gärtnern und über Fahrräder tausche ich mich gerne aus, hiervon habe ich aber weit weniger Ahnung.

New to site


Hi all, just starting to learn how to use this site after leaving facebook due to their hate speech changes.

Just so you know, I am what everyone now refers to as trans. This is not something that you decide you want to be you are born this way and cannot change it any more then you can change being human. Yes god made me this way and so the best way to look at it is that its like a major development as a fetus that doesn't develop along the same line as what is considered normal development. Some think of it as a birth defect like so many others that they know about. However too many accept all the misinformation about us and call us perverts/pedophiles etc and just want us destroyed.

I could go on and on about this and how it has effected my life but it will not change how all the lies that has made life harder for me.

Feel free to ask questions and I will answer as best I can.

Stay safe and enjoy life,
Jackie

Interacting with Mastodon conversations


I guess I'm doing something wrong, but I'm trying to comment on Mastodon conversations from this Friendica instance, but it doesn't seem to work.
I have follow a person, and replied to one of their posts a good 6 hours ago.
I logged in to my mastodon account and found the same thread, but could not see the reply from my Friendica instance, though I could see the same replies from other people as I can via Friendica.

I'm completely new to Friendica, so I'm guessing I have overlooked something?

in reply to Peter Sørensen

Disclaimer - I have no specific knowledge, and this is an educated guess based on what I know as a user of distributed social media.

Friendica advertises that it has integrations for various ActivityPub/alternative social media services. My guess is it's one-way only. Friendica gets content from other sources, but without buy in from Mastodon devs, Friendica content won't show up there.

in reply to Peter Sørensen

@Peter Sørensen I just signed up for Friendica and I'm noticing the same thing. I'm not sure what's going on either, but I did notice that replies to Mastodon from Friendica seem to be hit or miss so far (mostly miss, but not completely). I noticed that someone else's reply from another Friendica instance than my own shows up in Mastodon, but my replies don't. I'm starting to wonder if it may be something broken with specific Friendica instances.

Not for sale.

Pixelfed belongs to the people.

I'd rather be broke and true to my beliefs, than sell out.

That's why I'm organizing a Kickstarter to fund the ethical development of Pixelfed, Loops and more.

It's time that someone stood up to them, instead of joining them.
