@pollbot Six-and-a-half years ago! Can't quite believe it's been that long. Last time was March 2018 to see Cillian Murphy in 'Grief Is The Thing With Feathers' in Dublin.

A fun piece of chess trivia:

"In medieval chess, as an attempt to make the pieces more interesting, each pawn was given the name of a commoner's occupation."

These include: gambler, innkeeper, doctor, and farmer.

My Chrome extension for devs who use #1Password is now availabe in the chrome store!

It blocks the 1Password UI on specific domains that you choose - preventing the annoying popups when you're doing things on dev sites (eg localhost).

Its called 🥁 "Block 1Password on domains"

Hey #Mastodon instance admins! Please tell me I'm missing something obvious but how would I go about updating to v4.3.0-alpha.5 ? Not the upgrade process, I mean specifically the latest alpha release. I can't find any info about it at all.

not saying I'm a prophet or anything but stuff like this happens to me all the time

Opinion divided. I thought it was the worst film I’ve seen this year, easily. My cinema buddy went in not expecting to like it but was pleasantly surprised and even enjoyed the second half of the film. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Why the fuck do I still go to watch new M. Night Shyamalan films?

I must be doing something wrong.

"Mastodon averages about 1GB of RAM for running processes, suggesting a box with about 1.5GB would be sufficient."

Best I can do, for a single-user server, is a bit under 3GB RAM used.

I followed a few other guides, including:

- https://blog.thms.uk/2024/01/pg-repack-mastodon

Would love to hear from other folks running their own single-user Mastodon server about their experience.
