Enterprise development by day; photography, blogging, art, and computer programming by night. I love music, fine art, and standup comedy. I enjoy cooking, reading literature and scifi. I don't mind JavaScript. I loathe politics.

All opinions are strictly my own and in no way represent those of the giant telecom that employs me.

I'm moving to @erik365@stranger.social because home.social is planning to shut down and stranger.social is a fun domain name. The profile migration process should automatically bring you along to my new account. Once I hit the button, I don't think I can reply here anymore. And I can't move again for 30 days. Wish me luck!

@HouseOfSchnuck I don’t know. Maybe I’ll try moving over the weekend to see what it’s like. I’ve changed email addresses a bunch of times. For me, social media isn’t that interesting, so I’m not going to invest a lot work into it. But maybe instances can be like the old forums where you visit different ones for different purposes.

@davidshq they make skin safe personal groomers with ceramic clipper heads. They’re narrower than noggin clippers, but don’t get hot or scrape you up if you’re going for clean to the scalp.

According to a May 10th update on home.social/about, the admin for home.social is thinking about closing shop soon. I'm not sure I'll bother migrating. I'll probably wander off and do other things instead.

Kim Shattuck of The Muffs and The Pandoras, an outstanding bass player and always one of the coolest women on stage.

Rest in peace Kim 🖤

Statistically speaking, you're most likely a bad person if you're still using Twitter. I know you probably don't feel that way, but the numbers don't lie.

Rear of Kimmel Center, #Philadelphia, PA, 2022. Taken with an #Olympus Mju-II 38-80 zoom, a nice little camera originally manufactured around 1998. Here you can see a malfunction in advancing the frame, likely during film processing. @ShittyCameraChallenge #ShittyCameraChallenge

Folks asked for a How To detailing how I created my own #selfhosted #Mastodon server.

Ask and you shall receive. 😊
I hope it is useful to those who might need it.
Happy to take any suggestions or corrections.

The default error screen from Mastodon. Ironically, this is what you WANT to see the very first time you boot up the Nginx server! You'll know you're very close! :)A screenshot of the mastodon setup script output. It's a lot of lines of messages!
