Damnit, I need a teenager. There are tedious technical things I want done but don't want to do myself.

@mcmoots @trwnh _our_ elders? aren't they all dead?

@mcmoots @trwnh ok, step one: project needs a name. I'm trying to come up with something that combines 'aggregation' with 'aggravation', and it's not coming together. ideas?

I accept that I have unreasonable standards for technology. I think that software should work and do what it says it will. I believe that $500 disk arrays shouldn’t get stuck in a reboot cycle 12 hours after I take it out of the box. I believe people should support their KS projects past the time they finish shipping.

I realize I’m crazy. Angry and crazy.

Fry’s is looking seriously post-collapse these days. Entires aisles bare of merchandise. Display models broken or missing parts. Definitely wasted the trip.

Second attempt at getting Known up and running on my docker cluster. Looks like the only way to make it work is to build my own containers, which I'm not in the mood to fight with right now.

At this point, would honestly rather write my own. In Rails.

The rpi compute module looks a lot like a naked pentium 2

@trwnh yeah, not interested in Wordpress. Tried to set up Known with docker, ended up irritated and deleted everything. Was hoping someone out there HAD written their own and then made it available, as I’ve got more than enough projects open at the moment and don’t need another. Ah well.

Does there exist a decent self-hosted personal social media aggregator? I'm looking for something that will collect anything I post anywhere and collect it all in one place. Been searching, and only finding things that are paid and/or are crap.

I've burned a day and a half trying to figure out why acts_as_tenant was causing specs to fail randomly. Turned out it uses request_store internally, and THAT doesn't get cleared between specs, because it's implemented as middleware. Whee.

@lmorchard that’s not very nice. Let us know how it goes. ::D

Set up boinc on several idle or semi-idle machines last week, joined three different projects because why not. Now wondering if there’s a tool to let me see my status across both projects and machines at the same time.

@mcmoots This story was making me angry, but then it had a happy ending.
