last pixie.town maintenance window at 19:00 UTC (in 1:13 hours). Matrix and Mastodon will be down while postgres data gets moved to ssd

LVM is fuckin awesome. I could move my rootfs to a different disk, while everything was online and serving services/database requests. Still moved ~120GB in 14 minutes

@anarchiv To the centre of the city where goth girls are now outlawed [...]

fork free software in the streets, spoon gf in the sheets

@anarchiv that's definitely a problem with that place as well lmao. Everything is awesome and you just keep putting stuff on your plate...

@anarchiv @a_breakin_glass yee. If you ever go there again make sure to visit spiritrestaurants.nl/rotterdam best restaurant ever. All vegetarian buffet

remembered I took this good pic when I just got my new Xiaomi

@anarchiv I really like glass buildings like that :>
But it does clash with it's surroundings terribly there

pixie.town started with a full borgmatic system backup

The migration will be happening tomorrow, starting around 11:00 UTC

services will stay online during most of the migration, but expect performance to be affected (main reason for this migration was existing IO bottlenecks)

During the postgres move at the end of the migration, Synapse and Mastodon will both be down. moving around 33Gb of data from hdd to ssd

then a reboot to make sure everything is reboot-proof. If everything goes well actual downtime should be very limited

@brainblasted there's definitely people that don't know better, but recommending to use they/them instead is indeed a great way to find out

@eloisa
It's a bit slow in development currently, but a long running project of mine is working on a better Matrix (web)client, more akin to Telegram/Discord in UI

neo.pixie.town

some other things include pixie.town where I run a bunch of free services, and tilde.industries where I make and sell electronics with friends of mine
