oh my. the SP500 just crossed into correction territory. fantastic job, commander.

@paco that's not a bad idea, but not sure who can afford that any more. I'll just go up to what used to be my kids' rooms and sleep there.

@grumpy4n6 I paid $0.44 for that whole order using coupons. Delivery is free.

Do you ever just really need a nap?

@kaced I think it is about 3 miles

Turns out drones can deliver root beer floats

I just saw a post about the Kessler Syndrome and it hit me that Earth is like one of the Silos in Hugh Howey's Silo book series. If you try to leave, you get torn apart.

@SecurityWriter btw, it's a good question. I'm sure lots of people have similar questions.

To put a fine point on it - even if I wanted to comply with a law that requires more aggressive age verification, it's just not possible. I couldn't afford to do it- whatever it is, I wouldn't have the time to do it, and I wouldn't be willing to accept the risk of handling people's identification. So I go back to the point that there is just no way forward for complying with those laws. I suspect 99.5% of the rest of the fediverse, maybe even 100% would be in the same spot. For now, we keep our heads down and hopefully stay off the radar.

@GossiTheDog @SecurityWriter

@SecurityWriter it’s hard to say. Outside of the U.K., most country laws place limits of applicability so that they are really focused on larger platforms. We don’t have a U.K. presence and it seems very unlikely we will pop on their radar.

Mastodon recently added a requirement to add your age on signup and lets admins set a minimum age, but that’s basically cosmetic. I don’t see a future where we can do anything more than that. If it becomes too legally perilous to continue, I and likely most all other operators will close shop. I love yall, but I’m not sitting in jail to protest a policy that I have no hope of changing.

Anyhow, things like this have happened every few months for the now 9 years I’ve been running the place and it’s never once been an issue.

@deFractal I see what you mean. The 1 is there, but it's cut off.

I've updated our installs. I now await the completely rational and unemotional reactions of 16000 people across 5 instances on the new changes to the software.

Wake up, babe. There's security updates for mastodon and lemmy waiting for you.

Due to rapidly increasing prices, Lacie has begun a controlled release from the Strategic Bark Reserve (SBR) to stabilize prices. People and small animals in the vicinity are advised to wear ear plugs.

THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

@pq1r @briankrebs aye. It isn’t very often I see butthurt motivation be that intense.

@ePD5qRxX I think that’s where all of them are on this go around.

@briankrebs I know that happened a few weeks ago - is it happening again? I haven't seen any so far today

Has anyone ever heard of a security breach of a Fedramp moderate or higher authorized environment? I mean the parts that are authorized.
