@gamehawk Yeah, but anyone watching TV nowadays is gonna feel right at home in Vancouver.

It turns out that not knowing how to maintain something in docker written in rails may be an impediment to running it... Who could have foreseen such an event!

So the 1.2 upgrade appears to have killed my private instance. D'oh.

Domain blocked a single-user instance whose single user routinely posted harassing content. Did public chastisement, did private escalation. His third offense wasn't even local, but it counted.

Reminder that as a user here, you can report abuse even if it's not taking place directly here. I can still block people from being visible here.

I'm going to open this instance to sign-ups as soon as I get the hang of Maintaining it. Need to get some updates and customization experience, and not really understanding Rails isn't going to help.

hi all! i have a thing to share with you! my new instance is ready and it is a little different...

toots on this instance are ephemeral; they disappear after a while (between 5 minutes and an hour) depending on the current phase of the moon.

ephemeral.glitch.social

something glitchy, something witchy...

Just, you know, hope they don't do this with the *movie* because that would be weird.

we should stop saying you have to be good at math to program. yeah you use math but i say "good at" to talk about skills where ive achieved greater than average mastery or its a hobby, like im good at drawing or something. i avoided programming as a kid because i was a B student in math and considered "good at math" to mean gifted. how many potentially talented women programmers do we lose when they are ten years old because of this?

The best thing about Mastodon so far is that I haven't arranged my daily information-gathering system around it the way I have with birdsite. I constantly feel pressured to keep up with tweets because that's how I follow news and friends and tech stuff. Toots are, so far, ephemeral and no stress. I hope it stays this way.

Okay, my new Mastodon instance is live! Since @Mus made oulipo.social where you can't post the letter 'e', I am proud to announce:

DOLPHIN TOWN!
dolphin.town

A Mastodon instance where you can only say the letter "e". Follow me there! I'm @e

Mastodon is the ever present reminder that I shouldn't have slept through French class in high school.
