Yay, I now have running on a PYNQ-Z1 FPGA board. It has a 650MHz dual-core Arm Cortex-A9 with 512MB RAM. That is not enough memory to run though.

My personal mantra for not replying to trolls: "Once muted, soon forgotten."

A powerful spell. Practically magic missile.

We should train in it, because it is the same basic spell they use to forget us.

This is the actual text of Article 13 of the EU's Copyright Proposal.

Article 13 Use of protected content by information society service providers storing and giving access to large amounts of works and other subject-matter uploaded by their users

1. Information society service providers that store and provide to the public access to large amounts of works or other subject-matter uploaded by their users shall, in cooperation with rightholders, take measures to ensure the functioning of agreements concluded with rightholders for the use of their works or other subject-matter or to prevent the availability on their services of works or other subject-matter identified by rightholders through the cooperation with the service providers. Those measures, such as the use of effective content recognition technologies, shall be appropriate and proportionate. The service providers shall provide rightholders with adequate information on the functioning and the deployment of the measures, as well as, when relevant, adequate reporting on the recognition and use of the works and other subject-matter.
2. Member States shall ensure that the service providers referred to in paragraph 1 put in place complaints and redress mechanisms that are available to users in case of disputes over the application of the measures referred to in paragraph 1.
3. Member States shall facilitate, where appropriate, the cooperation between the information society service providers and rightholders through stakeholder dialogues to define best practices, such as appropriate and proportionate content recognition technologies, taking into account, among others, the nature of the services, the availability of the technologies and their effectiveness in light of technological developments.

I was bored and wrote a mastodon rake task [1] who export content to a pleroma database.
It has bugs, but globally is a good start.
It's not a pleroma mix task but it was easier to do it from mastodon because of the db model and the availability of the ActivityPub Serializer to output JSON AP object in one call.

A small aspect of 80's computer history I was previously unaware of. I don't know if we did this in the US, but I hope so. Now we do something like this all the time without even thinking about it: "How People Used to Download Games From the Radio".

i'm a bit surprised that there isn't more 'buzz' around elixir. most people who try it like it a lot, and it solves real problems.

Scene: a café
Customer: "one mastodon, please!"
Waitress: "coming right up!"
The waitress brings a cup of mastodon.
Customer takes a sip and smiles. He finishes the mastodon.
Waitress comes over again.
Waitress: "so how did you like it?"
Customer: "it was the best mastodon I ever had!"
Waitress smiles, turns the cup over. On the bottom it says "Pleroma".
Customer is confused, then starts smiling, too. "I'll take another one please!"

They both laugh and the Pleroma jingle plays.

less jokingly, if you actually find a pleroma bug, please take a look at the issue list at git.pleroma.social/pleroma and report it if it isn't there, especially if it's a security bug.

here are some perks from a rented server because apparently people easily forget the state of things in the wild and why we gave that up in the first place:
- reliable power
- reliable fast internet connection that won't keep from tooting while someone dl an image
- comes with people to watch and fix your hardware quickly
- better physical security than your house, from fire risks to it being stolen
- won't draw a big target on your home connection which yknow is a critical point for many people
