Tonight’s sleep aid is Samuel Adams “Sam ‘76’ Lager”. So far, I prefer both the Oktoberfest seasonal brew and their regular lager. This one is just okay, and their Kosmic Sour is not good (I poured it down the drain). -

@guizzy Yeah, I’m not really saying all those specifically apply to you. I’m speaking more of the general case of hosting A site used by others. So, for example, domain and VPS rent, backups, updates, moderation all come out of the admin’s budget (time or money budget). Everyone starts out cheerful and optimistic, but time, competing priorities at home and work, even relationships can change things.
Your “no incremental costs over what I’d already be paying” is sort of a unique situation. -

#sonTwo told me tonight that a co-worker passed away about 10 days after contracting (or finding out he had) some rare disease that mostly affects Blacks. He didn't know what it was called, so I've been trawling through links like https://nu.federati.net/url/251588 [zimeye\.net] trying to find out what it could have been.
He doesn't think it was contagious. -

@1iceloops123 Not just Niu people are sad. Leo's gotten a bad rap by the blockers almost from the beginning, so it isn't a surprise. #Blockwars -

It's cool to occasionally have chats with the kids where all we talk about is servers and NAS boxes and SBCs like the !RasPi. I really enjoy our usual events/plans/feelings/grandkids talks, but these are also special. -

@sean Your quest to join the USAF helped me to speak up. When #sonOne joined the USNavy in the #1990s, I vehemently disagreed. As a result of that disagreement and his somewhat difficult teen years, we barely spoke for about twelve years.
Yesterday, I finally told him that the military benefited him (maturity, training & experience, a pattern of income) that he never would have gotten had he not chosen that path. I used these words: “I was wrong”. -

@sean I'm glad to see that you're motivated to take care of yourself. Hoping 30 pounds in 30 days (14kg, about 0.45kg/day) is something you can do without disappointment or health damage. @lain -

@amic You're too late. I went to #MacGrill because you hadn't made dinner yet. -

when ssg 3.0 comes out we might be able to offer paid hosting for feddy stuff.
thinking about offering free domains under pikabu.moe or one of the other domains i've been hoarding. a custom domain would be on you to rent. might team up with @sir for the registrar rec thing if his project happens.
probably won't open up for business for a while, but the plan is to operate as a cooperative doing different hosting things and contracting gigs to keep the lights on long-term. -

There are still plans to expand !fnetworks. Things are on hold due to my feast or famine employment schedule (and resulting financial peaks and valleys), but eventually, there should be multiple instances of #Fediverse software, #xmpp, and other federated things, most available under a unified Federati Networks account. -

Found a #MacGrill near #Sac. This chain used to be a favorite place for me and #sonTwo. -

@xj9 @sir My answers to those "secret questions" come from https://passwordsgenerator.net/ (because this way I know for sure there's no possible relationship to the password itself, which is generated by KeePassX). -

@guizzy I understand and agree.
I also think that if you have more than 10-20 active users, you should probably ask members of the community to contribute if they can ... financially, moderation-wise, admin tasks, customizing the design and function of the site, and so on. We do our users no favor by reinforcing that sites and servers are provided without any cost. That's what the #corpocentric networks do, but then they have ads and data-collection to extract resources anyway.
If we think that peer-to-peer is the eventual goal, then everyone will be responsible for their own bandwidth, backups, and administration (updates, settings). That cannot happen if we keep teaching people that "I can play for free because someone else will do the work without any cost".
Not everyone can or will contribute, of course, but if a few people help in those areas, it can be the difference between keeping the instance going or shutting it down.
