#MastoAdmin Im upgrading to 4.4.1 and am at the step where it's RAILS_ENV=production bundle exec rails do migrate for the post deployment migration. Been running about 1 half hrs already. The server's up though. How long should this take? Any problem if it's interrupted? Seems to be no change and no new messages. Any way to tell if its working? Should I stop the server?

@bitterseeds 🤣 It's somewhat in jest. I've gotten some absolutely bonkers replies over the years to questions.

#Ottawa people: Do any of you have an electric cordless snowblower? If so, what brand do you have? How do you like it? How well does it work in our weird ass winters? We keep looking and then chickening out. But the kids aren't going to be living at home for ever...

Start of the year I set myself an arbitrary goal of running 1000km, reached that by end of August so added 500km. Tuesday I passed the 1500km mark.

All runs from not to end of Dec are a bonus.

Enjoying my running usually 10-14km 4 times a week and averaging ~11.50km/h

Best of all...no injuries (few niggles but kept under control, Pilates helps)

All tracked using and logged using @FitTrackee

You know what would be a really handy ¹ app for me? Something that could look through my fitness activities, and say, find all the walks/runs/rides of a certain distance and show me the map of the route I took.

¹: No, I'm not installing linux, changing hardware, or willing to compile code to do this.

Me (45 years old): Robocop is a morality play about the horrors of capitalism and how it can literally rob us of our humanity in the pursuit of profit. Also hahahahah Robocop shot that dude in the dick.

[NOTE: Apparently I forgot to click Post on Thursday]

Thursday :
234 seconds of plank.
11 minutes of yoga for runners.
20 minutes of lower body strength training.
6.1 KM of (1°C, 71% humidity, and 19 KM/H wind).

Good workouts, and a nice 6km run doing the 400 metres run / 100 metres walk. I want to push more, but also want to take it easy. It was *trying* to snow.

May try a longer walk on Saturday to get the legs used to more distance.

Fedi folks in Denmark, and especially around Copenhagen, I have a request.

My sister will likely be visiting the area in December, and would like your recommendations for things/places to check out while she's there. Especially the queer-friendly places. What are some of your favorite activities? Do you have any important facts or notes she should be aware of? Would your answers change if she is considering a move vs just visiting?

Hey you know what’s super easy to say? White supremacy is bad. Anyone who espouses white supremacy is a bad person. Any company that endorses white supremacists is a bad company.

Dear white people specifically: why the fuck is this so hard for you?
