server rolled back 4 days (lemmy.beyondcombustion.net)
submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

supposedly CSAM got posted to a lemmy.world community that may have federated, I didn't check.

it needed nuked and blocked to be safe. so that's why the server was rolled back.

Just completed a 450mi bike tour. Sorry the site went offline, tried to fix an issue with the mobile version through my phone and it took the whole thing down. Whoops.

I didn't take my laptop, couldn't afford to carry the extra weight with the vapes I took lol.

Hitting the TM2 to relax and pause while thinking about how to fix this so I can ebike the 300 miles back home..

What’s your favorite vape for fixing fucked up problems?

Couldn’t bring everything I wanted to because it was like 500lbs of stuff.

Two of these will run/charge directly from my eBike though (since it’s got a 12v DC system), so they were obvious choices to keep when cutting weight.

Updated Voyager to 1.8.0 since that was just released (linked)

Expanded the volume for lemmy by 100GB

Cleaned up old snapshots of VMs, created new baselines.

Scripting and posting shit on Gitea.

New VM for Lemmy w/ separate VMs for Redis and PostgreSQL are just about done. Same with MediaCMS, Pixelfed, and Invidious.

I was also smart enough this time to remember and make snapshots along the way so I don't have to start over if something goes completely wacko.

Documentation, configs, etc (gitea.beyondcombustion.net)

Finally started putting some things up on the Gitea for the server config.

Started by adding the docker-compose.yml files for two of the lemmy-ui alternatives that are running now.

mlmym, Voyager, and others don't seem to have docker-compose.yml files on their project pages yet, so I'll fork and properly PR those later this afternoon.

Will fix that once I get back from the colo. The docker container wants a reboot for whatever reason, and there's some updates to that front-end pending.

Combusted on the first bowl w/o capsule, so I need to clean it and keep using it for a bit to give good feedback on this thing. In the meantime, here's an unboxing and a couple pics.

Posting multiple pics, let alone videos here sucks. I'm going over to put the 2nd server in the colo this afternoon and hopefully fix that.

Agree 100%, !@[email protected] is pretty bad ass for finding/posting all these awesome memes.

I ain't got nothin better to do so might as well run a server forever

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

you should see how many of these big servers were (and still are) running their instances as 'root'...

I specifically stopped trying to grow my instance to focus on security and sysadmin back-end administrative infrastructure.

[-] [email protected] 5 points 1 year ago

ya know, it's not hard to setup a totally independent instance on the same hypervisor as another.

I have servers, you have people, we could make independent lemmy instances on my two Dell R720xd and one Dell R730xd servers. They're not overloaded with people like lemmy.world yet, that would put way way more stress on that server.

I have the shuruggie tattooed on my right wrist. Shruggie is a state of mind.

it's been off for about a week

[-] [email protected] 4 points 1 year ago

100% agree, which is why:

The post you commented on and linked to is in 9 days old

That bot has been off for at least 4-5 days now.

If you don't want to talk to bots, make NEW posts :-)

It was to get something in here, exactly as you said. But that time passed.

We'll still be bringing the old-as-hell stuff onto this server somewhere, but it won't be continual bot reposts like that

That's what this Dell PowerEdge I'm posting on is for

Sorry to hear about the CHS :(

Totally cool w/selling the zion gear here and glass as long as it's clean and do one of those username/date pics w/it like EntExchange and stuff do. Always suggest using PayPal Goods and Services for buyer protection, can't mention what it is tho cause things are grey w/that.... TL;DR everything is risky, it's something we accept after doing as much due diligence as possible. So, just be aware/careful/keep exceptions aligned with the above and you might get scammed like any other place items are sold/traded secondhand.

For the giving away consumables in a legal way... I'd want to stay on the side of caution and say no because Ohio sucks and I'm not confident w/my potential personal liability for that taking place in a sanctioned/open way on communities my hardware hosts. If someone came at the site for selling a used mighty or RBT zion that was clean/above board/etc... I'd be willing to try to fight the state on that one (would prob get expensive and I'd do my best, would end w/a gofund me and a fight at least lmao). I registered an LCC in Ohio to deal with the banking/taxes/not in my bank account related to hosting the server (plus other things), and most importantly keep shit away from my Ex wife..... Don't want that getting swooped up in a DEA raid over an 8th of shrooms or herb ;-)

With even giving away consumables "legally", like a Washington DC resident posting something along those lines on this hardware.... Personally I'd LOVE to, but unfortunately I'm not lookin to be low-key Heisenberg at this stage of my life & It would complicate other things in my life quite a bit IF there was an issue in the substance space.

It's all about those fucking advertisements the official app is plagued with.

Gotta get that $$$$$

*and why links REALLY can't be posted to vendors by users or posts w/individual to individual trades on Reddit. They want to charge for that stuff eventually I'm sure.

Yep! Haven't tried it but we'll found out.
