Oh come on, what are the odds that an entire high rise in London would catastrophically burn down?

Having just watched Ocean with David Attenborough, this is amazing.

Tesla has managed to sell just 7,100 Cybertrucks in the US, according to registration data from S&P Global Mobility cited by the Wall Street Journal. It's an astounding and rapid plummet, when in the fourth quarter of 2024, Tesla sold close to double that amount, with roughly 13,000 Cybertrucks.

Dropping by half isn't really a level I'd gasp at. From that click bait title I expected 80-90%

My dog remembers every single store that has ever given him a treat, and will drag me to all of them.

This. This is how an instance ban shows up, as a series of bans on any community they were active in on that instance.

Yep the API is on as of earlier today. It's not listed in the docs yet, which is probably why the au instance doesn't have it on.

The Eternaut.

I was curious and started it this afternoon with a friend. It's now 6 hours later, we've melted into my couch, and we're just finishing the season.

Not sure how I feel about this one. Performing assassinations in our country was unacceptable.

 

Sorry for the downtime! Unfortunately our secondary firewall took over for some reason, and haproxy failed to properly come up.

I'll be scheduling a maintenance window in the next few days to do some further digging, so I can make sure this is fully resolved.

With some hacking at the database and APIs, I've put together a python script that allows backfilling of posts. I've now pulled in the most recent 50 posts of anyone that one of our users is following.

You may now bask in cats. https://pixelfed.ca/i/web/profile/797991200484212751

Hopefully that'll help it feel a little less empty!

 

Sorry about the brief downtime there!

Wasn't related to the new users or high load, but was a combination of two problems:

  1. Our fw02 took over for some reason TBD
  2. Opnsense isn't keeping haproxy configs in sync and fw02 had a broken config

Still digging into the root cause, but shouldn't be any more issues =)

 

Just a heads up that we're now running on lemmy 0.19.9.

Sorry about the ~20 minutes of downtime there!

I was working on migrating the lemmy.ca domain out of a personal cloudflare account, into a shared one for Fedecan. Missed one little setting that took me far too long to track down!

 

Unfortunately the pictrs database migration yesterday seems to have skipped migrating a ton of data.

Since cloudflare is caching our images, almost nobody noticed. We've now been running on the new instance for over a day, collecting new images into a new incomplete db. Fun.

I now have two copies of pictrs running, one with the postgres db and one with the legacy sled-db. Requests that fail against our updated one, will be retried against the legacy one. This should result in all images working properly again for now, while I figure out a better long term solution.

Please let me know if you still see any issues with images loading!
