Images? Pixelfed.
Books? Bookwyrm.
Text? Anything, really.
Why is there nothing dedicated to playlists or mixtapes?
Maybe because you don't want to embed the media, only the meta data and link to YouTube/SoundCloud/Spotify. Yeah, of course you can embed a single track via a link but that doesn't cut it.

On this date in 1993, the IETF published RFC1519 and obsoleted classful addressing.
If anyone talks about Class C addresses, or even A, B, D, or E, their knowledge is thirty years obsolete and they can be safely ignored.¹ #sysadmin

Forget hoodies on the Senate floor, I want to see them all wear jumpsuits like NASCAR drivers with all the corporations and billionaires that bought them plastered on their suits.
One day I’ll write a book „how to build scalable system for the 95%“.
You’ll be able to summarize it with
- pick any mainstream language
- deploy on one server
- deploy Postgres on another server
- double the number of server for redundancy
So many systems I’ve seen lately could run off in memory SQLite and a replication to a CSV file.
Yet there’s a relational database, a document database, a key value store and four services deployed on k8s for all 100MB data and 2000 customers.
My favourite changelog format is the 'Daft Punk' format:

It's a shame that the #crystallang compiler seems to be going hayward with resources, I can't build https://github.com/toddsundsted/ktistec on my VM (with a DE and browser and an IDE) without oom killer killing random things. It has all 4 cores of an old i4 and 10GB of RAM, I've never experienced *any* problem building C, C++, Rust, or Java.
So it's either getting it to run on WSL (I only have WSL 1 here, running fine, so Docker is out) or using a laptop, which means it's too much work and I won't do shit.
Too bad, wanted to work on some issue I'd filed long ago, but this is not enjoyable. I've not started profiling, but the application doesn't seem to be that huge or complicated and some research had more people complaining. Yes, it's 10 year old decent hardware, but it's a small, probably typical web app and not an enterprise abomination.

Current mood: Not being able to decide if I need to write a programming language or an editor fist. At least the OS space is safe... for the moment.
