I am a hyper carnivore so I do not eat fiber. This can be difficult on my microbiome. So I eat yogurt to keep my microbiome happy
. I typically make my own Greek yogurt though my favorite store brand is always an acceptable standin. It must be made with whole milk as I do not eat any dairy products that are low or no fat. I add a teaspoon of instant coffee and a teaspoon of unsweetened baker's chocolate to my yogurt and sweeten it with a teaspoon of Stevia & Erythiritol extract. I typically also add a half teaspoon of bourbon vanilla. I also have a glass of GG Energy Acid Rain (peach) on the side which is a no-carb no-caffeine engery drink.

Germans may need to brush up on their Sieg Heil salute. This setting is nearly identical to Hitlers 'Elbow Room' platform. It is scary how much it has in common, just substitute the Ukrainians for the Jews.

I preferred notepad++ or using gedit or kate via mingw64 Though these days I suppose people could use WSL2 as it supports GUI applications as well.
I am completely MS/Windows free these days so it is not really an issue to me anymore. I know that some people, due to work, are force to still use that OS. I feel sorry for them. I dropped all support for all MS/Windows projects early this year as I now personally consider the entire OS spyware and unfit for use.

I am a bit different than average. Okay, maybe that is to mild of a way of looking at it. In reality my focus is never on the metrics I observe others using. For instance, I do not care what your political views are or your pronouns, biases or what your other identifiers may be. What I focus on is how you behave despite how you would like the world to perceive you. I tend to always believe a person is of the best intentions until they give evidence otherwise. In short I am evidence driven rather than being dragged around by my emotions. Does that mean I do not have emotions? Of course not, it means that how I feel about what you said is far less likely to have an effect on my view of you than my evaluation of your intent.
It is all to easy for us to say 'I do not like labels.' and this may be true. It does not change the fact that labels is how the human brain tracks. We label everything. That is how we developed language in the first place. When I think about my own identity I am not focused on accidents of birth like my hair color, eye color, race, gender, nationality. I am more concerned about the attributes I play a role in. Such as humanity, apprecitation, awareness of my surroundings, awareness of now.
It is easy to define yourself by common labels such as Christian, Atheist, Muslim, CIS, Trans, etc. How important are these to your identity and why? When a person thinks of me I would far rather their first thought be 'He really cares' than 'He is a great Software Developer'. I really do not even care what pronouns they use as long as they are comfortable with them. To me if you confuse my identity I do not find that as a flaw in you. I find it a a flaw in me. How am I not representing my ideals? How can I more clearly reflect my ideals. If I have failed in this, it certainly is not your fault. Identity is a real issue these days. Though, the next time someone tries to set boundries ask yourself this. Are they building a privacy fence around their yard or are they building a fence around my yard? Respect the fence around their yard, do not accept their trying to control the way you think or express yourself. If a person offends you at the moment then do not dwell on that. Just move past that moment to now. If they tend to always be offensive toward you then move on in a way that seems most productive. These are ideals I live by not just talk about. Were most people tend to be very critical of others. I am most critical of myself. The reason is quite simple. I control my behavior not other people's. So I am only responsible for my behavior not theirs. It is about accountability. I am me, it would be very nice if you could be you. No one else has a right to impose on who you are. The good news is that they only can if you allow them to.

This pie chart is relevant to Rogue Project's Friendica and its federation distribution. It does not reflect the entire Fediverse just the Instances this Instance federates with.

Recall that the CDC lab that tracked outbreaks like cyclospora was hollowed out to a point of being non-functional. More than 17,000 people have been sickened with cyclospora. This is deliberate, part of Project 2025. 🧪 https://www.politico.Princess Vimentin PhD | Cancer Biologist (@princess-vimentin.bsky.social) (Bluesky Social)

After about 8 hours or more of work I have finally gotten the Instance back online. Unfortunately there was some data loss. Though all user accounts are still available and everything appears to be up and running smoothly now.
One huge hurdle I have had is that the developers of Friendica use Ubuntu by Canonical. I will not use anything from Canonical personally. I prefer the RHEL side of the spectrum. My workstations are Fedora which is RHEL upstream. My VPS for this Instance is Rocky Linux 9. The issue here is that Debian based distro's such as Ubuntu use AppArmor which is arguably less secure or at least less configurable than SELinux. So Friendica upstream has no concern for SELinux (to be fair they do warn that this is their position and only support Ubuntu so it is what it is) and how it effects a server using this heightened approach to security. It usually leaves me with headaches after every upgrade of Friendica. Not only because of their updates, but because of the updates Rocky Linux makes to SELinux Context causing me to have to mass re-label and configure files and directories. The changes are needed for security and not just designed to give me a headache
.
To any of my users that may have bumped into my Maintenance page the answer is no. No, I am not going to scrap Rogue Project's Friendica. Though it was tempting earlier today when I was looking at the hours of work I had to make sense of what was going on. The losses were minimal and I hope no one is to disappointed. At least this go around I did not lose the entire site and have to build over from scratch.
I have made some changes that I hope to be worth the effort. I have gone away from using worker.php from the cron and now use daemon.php via systemd. This should help with the SELinux issues if nothing else because the context issue will not be so wide spread. Hopefully this also helps with the memory leak issues of the worker.php. It will show just how much of a change good or bad it will have in the future. As usual time will tell.
I hope everyone has a great day! Take Care!

Still having issues, but i am spent, I will have look into it more later, but at least the Instance is back up.

At least at this point I have the db corruption and its cause sorted out. I have fixed the big issue, and db bloat seems to have dwindles away as the db is now less than half its size in two days. There are still some SELinux context issues but I will sort them out soon. Then all will be smooth riding. I have learned a lot today as I usually do when the Instance goes down.
For right now it is just a matter of watching for SELinux alerts and seeing if they are valid or if I have to edit yet another context ...

And after my timeline > I will hunt them on the hashtags.
Also the people that made it come on my timeline, friend or not I'm tired of your dumb bs and wanting to fill in with the crowd to make you be loved and have friends online.
2 mutuals propaging bs on my timeline, scored out so far. I get blocked because of you you get blocked because of me.
What sublimely annoys me are the notifs on a thread where I'm blocked for just saying the truth of which that thread was reposted by some idiot following me so I take proportionate action now so it will be erased from mt timeline whoever you might be I do not care. I'm sick of this.

just with this post alone.. friendica.rogueproject.org/dis…
Did I mention actively hunt them, comment per comment and their friends I missed will do that as well after a fast check. Just 2 of them saw me blocked me with my responses there, all the rest is now trash apart from the few and those that pre-blocked me well I ignored their server so I don't see them at all. Also the self hosters.
The retards didn't read even or did not got the point at all.
