think I need a new laptop, im running out of sticker space

toast on bread across the waters may be a delightful snack but over here it's just my cat sleeping on her pillow

anyone here in need of a mischievous goth horticulturist with a drinking problen who prefers talking to plants over talking to people? let's talk rates.

@trickster@mastodon.technology one of these days someone will post a cw'd snowcrash and I will still open it

@MacLemon@chaos.social sure! @f0x:pixie.town

I've been meaning to look into Workers for ages now, I think those will likely help performance more, to move stuff off the main thread

@MacLemon@chaos.social Synapse already has a very high CACHE_FACTOR of 15 while the machine has plenty left, so will probably up the postgres limits a bit more again then

@MacLemon@chaos.social yep, at stats.pixie.town/d/000000012/s

which is basically stuff like "oh now there's a spike in state resolution so here are some massive delays again"

@MacLemon@chaos.social my home network is kind of an issue, although vps-reverse-proxy media caching already helps with that

other than that it's just Synapse... being *bad*, having to leave rooms that cause too much performance issues, disabling presence because it eats a gigantic amount of cpu, etc

and everytime I fix something like that (with help from the Matrix team) it's fine for a while again till the next issue arises, hence not being comfortable offering this service to any extra people :/

let's hope conduit.rs is finished soon :')

information req, pride, homophobia 

at various Pride events last year I remember a significant number of people reporting homophobic abuse from cishet attendees. I think it was mostly in tweets etc though, I can’t find much of it now. does anyone have any links?

would also like to hear if you've had personal experience with this and would be happy to share

@wmd@chaos.social not sure how small it still is but @MacLemon@chaos.social's fairydust.space is what I recommend to people (as pixie.town has closed signups until performance improves)

Top priority for the remainder of the year is getting diagnosed with ADHD and getting medication and not stop to think about how I could be working on my PhD now had I ever gotten any help with this.
