Is there something mystical to this?

I was looking for a word that might immediately resolve questions regarding how it might work and the like, to avoid those follow-up questions and free people up to answer however they imagine it would work. It’s…Kinda worked? Aside from a few replies like this, which I don’t mind, I just wanted to encourage people to roll with it as they will

duplicate duplicate, unless there’s something you’d prefer with multiplidicity

Only an existential crisis? What about existential crises?

Anyways. I know you probably wanted a story that was more interesting than depressing, but that’s just one that really stuck with me from that point in my life there. I don’t think that’s a normal experience for a Night Auditor to have, so I wouldn’t take my experience as a reason to dissuade anyone from taking the position, but you asked for a story, and so you got one.

Even a depressing story is interesting in its own way, so I appreciate it all the same! I can see why the experience stuck with you, it’s a rough situation to find oneself in for almost all involved

Any odd stories from that job?

I thought of “surfing the web” as more of a superficial approach personally. I was thinking more along the lines of “researching” or digging through sites with a similar topic but each went deeper or in different directions than the first.

Although on second thought and a little looking around, it looks like “net diver” never took off as its own term? What strange rocks have I been under? 😵

Have you seen Publii yet? Dunno how well it works on Linux, but there’s a version for Linux as well.

Fairly certain, as I hadn’t downloaded anything on my phone when away from my PC that would have produced a notification to mirror. Also, sorry, I should have mentioned from the start that I typically run my phone in Do Not Disturb and Silent to minimize any notifications whatsoever.

On further digging I did notice that it looks as though the files mentioned in the notifications may have been downloads, but from literally years ago in, I think, every case (e.g. from 2018!). I don’t think I even had Connect installed back then to have caught those notifications. 🤨

Is this ever noted in any of the documentation, outside of some fine print, with the printer to let someone know that it’s being done? If your product is secretly leaving indicators for anyone aware of the indicators to track your actions in some way, that’s problematic in my opinion.

Given a printer is arguably a lesser issue anymore, but the same idea applies with other tech.

Thanks!

What’s a CLA?

What sets IceShrimp apart from the other Misskey forks in your opinion?

I can comment generally that I do feel like positivity is often in short supply in social media spaces, and when one does encounter it, it may be of the toxic variety.

What does the sweet turning sour tend to look like from what you’ve observed?

That’s kind of what I was thinking may be the case, but I’m not sure if I’m asking this well enough or if I may be misunderstanding ActivityPub.

It’s not clear to me how, without communication/searching outside of an ActivityPub instance, it would ever find other ActivityPub instances to connect to and communicate with.

When I hosted game servers: Depending on the game, you may have to fix something every few hours. Arma 3 is, by far, the worst. Which really sucks because the games can last really long, and it can be annoying to save and load with the GM tool thing.

Was that a mix of games being more involved and the way their server software was set up, from what you could tell, or…?

Yeah, to clarify I don’t mean organizing/arranging files as a part of maintenance, moreso handling different installs/configs/updating. Sometimes since more folks come around to ask for help it can appear as if it’s all much more involved to maintain than it may otherwise be (with a mix of the right setups and knowledge to deal with any hiccups).

Learned and use in which senses of the terms? 😜

What do you think of corporations being able to persist almost indefinitely? As a part to introducing greater accountability, might dissolution be appropriate at times?

Thanks!
