cool okay so update on the webpacker error: turns out I'd left a merge conflict in a JS file so it was no longer valid JS and I just... I feel like the default warning config should, you know, warn about this kind of thing?

"This file isn't valid" would be infinitely more helpful than what webpack gave for output: nothing. A recent change to curtail log sizes, apparently. Harrumph.

I just want to thank all the mods at mastodon.technology (@bclindner @danielhglus @fuzzface) for their work handling reports on the instance, and especially this week with the wave of spam we're seeing on the fediverse.

An extra-special thanks to @bclindner for building tools to automate moderator responses to these spammers, and for open-sourcing those tools to help other admins: https://github.com/bclindner/ivory/

@salixlucida yup, we’ve suspended the account - thanks for the notice!

@dyske thanks 🙏

@chrismurray I didn’t even think of how the different bells would produce different pitches

@vy any tips on getting some error details? Nothing I’ve tried so far works.

webpacker failures, no error detail output, cool

sir, this is a Applebee's

Docker?

@lubuntu @tyil cool! I’ll look into it this weekend!

Richard Prince is an asshole, that's my opinion, and he set a precedent that's led to more artist stealing instagram posts [cw abuse] https://twitter.com/helen/status/1138504821248385024

2014: hey yeah I like art. I don't know much about the art world but let's join an art startup...
2019: I apparently have very strong opinions about Richard Prince stealing Instagram posts

@AskChip it's the 24th story of an old NYC Chinatown high-rise, so anything's possible!

fucken... that “oven timer” box makes me do a double take every time I walk by it at work

what oven?! why does it have a timer... in the staircase??? this is some Sartre-level electrician nonsense.

good morning, sir? sir. sir? I have some questions, sir.

sir!

very lol at asking Apple to pay its proper taxes because “it’s the right thing to do”

@d_armentrout while hunting down an nginx config problem, I’d inadvertently set a lower limit on nginx’s large_client_header_buffers value (I had 2*1k buffers, so any request with a header over 1k bytes would fail). We now have 4*16k buffers.

@d_armentrout thanks so much! Got it sorted, let me know if it happens again.

@d_armentrout please do! ash@ashfurrow.com
