Me, disabled and using smart tech to improve a shitty situation, while reading your total lack of understanding or imagination of anyone’s situation but themselves: 🙄

‘to reset this device, it needs internet access. it will automatically reconnect during setup.’

Me, watching you be a little bitch while I slash the manager’s tires, put sugar in their gas tank, and [redacted], before going back home to crawl back in bed, feeling refreshed knowing that I made a positive difference today: 😊

So you’re offering to manage my ~40 services, and make sure that all the dependencies are met - and none conflict…?

I mean, I enjoy hosting things myself, but I’m not going to invite issues that have been resolved by simple solutions. I’ve been around the block with dependency hell, fuck all of that. Now if I was getting paid like 6 figures instead of zero, sure boss, whatever the fuck you say boss, job security all day long. But unless you’re offering, I’m sticking with the easy way.

I don’t see any options or mention of changing instances, beyond discord canary and public testing…? I might be blind

It’s been around a few years. I investigated it last year. It had a name change some times ago.

I can’t vouch for the code quality, but it’s too old to be slop.

I set this container up yesterday. Technically it’s running. But all the settings are in the fucking sql db, and I know fuck all about sql other than drop tables is funny meme from xkcd. But also, ignoring the settings, I would like to point out that there is effectively no client. I mean, there are two official ones - the depreciated one, and the alpha one, and the alpha one has a total of 4 releases with the newest being two years ago. How do you deprecate a client when the server is still in alpha? What the fuck? And on all pages it screams ‘this is alpha testing software, do not use as a daily’. Also the docs are, uhh… rough. If rough was falling 4 stories into a bed of poisonous cacti. It took me 3 hours to get the container running properly and finally poking at the db. It’s as organized as my bedroom (‘it’s somewhere in this dresser, I think…’).

The idea, the potential, is brilliant. Literally everything about getting it working though…

Will the real tree shady please stand up

I’ve read that Stoat is bad for self-hosting, something about calls/video broadcasting not being part of the docker image, and needing to compile from source with every update?

I spent most of my day searching, spinning up containers, and discussing with friends and users on my discord ‘server’ about what to do. I burned out after a few hours of frustration. I had Mumble up and running a year ago but that was a bit too techy for new users, and it’s not really the ‘community’ feature set that I’d want…

makes us look like some third world war zone

It doesn’t just look that way…

Actually, he is a cat. I am a wolf.

I can’t feel a difference…?

Stay in the store, overnight, raid the staff fridge, fall asleep on a mound of pillows, hide again before the store opens, casually leave as they open, repeat for a couple of days.

Lmfao, as someone who dreams about being at the level of poverty (USA social security is a fucking joke), buying a god-damn burrito on deferred payments (or concert tickets, or fucking cosmetic botox injections) is one of the most moronic asinine decisions you can do with your financial… stability, future? It’s a dumbass move on every fucking front.

I became disabled 11 years ago and I tried to move out on my own 10 years ago. Even splitting an apartment meant for low-income individuals 5 different ways, rent and utilities were high, and I would regularly have to skip meals to not throw myself into a spiral of debt in a hurry. And even then, I still accrued debt that lead to moving back in with family.

I occasionally use deferred payment plans - I need something that I can’t pay off in a single month (again, fuck you social security) and the store offers no interest on it. Sure. But that’s shit I actually need - I’m currently paying off a bathtub seat, for example - not a fucking set of concert tickets.

I will absolutely judge everyone making dumbass financial decisions that are blatantly, obviously bad choices.

So uh, what are your feelings about butt licking? A-asking for a friend…

Gonna need a salad at this point

ohhh fuckkk yes, aerodynamics

This feels like the simpsons ‘football to the groin’ laugh and obvious explanation from Homer. For everyone watching, they aren’t laughing with him, they are laughing at him.

I can totally believe this is made by a person, I just thought I left all those people behind when I abandoned Facebook.
