If you don't like Debian, maybe rocks just aren't your thing, I love rocks, they sit there, never move, never break, just stable, just like Debian. :debian:

Wow installing :debian: #Debian is... slow... And terribly annoying all these unnecessary questions. Maybe I used the wrong installer, but man...
And no sudo configured for the user. visudo not available as root. Only the installer cdrom set up as apt mirror, can't install anything.
Okay I'm outta here wtf 😂

Right now, forever, and probably even in my next life, I use Debian, because once you go rock solid, there’s no going back. 😋 :debian:

Obscure kernel bug use-after-free and then the VLAI severity told me "maybe important" before I read the drama #kernel

[CVE-2025-38001] Exploiting All Google kernelCTF Instances And Debian 12 With A 0-Day For $82k: A RBTree Family Drama (Part One: LTS & COS)
CVE-2025-38001 is a Use-After-Free vulnerability in the Linux network packet scheduler, specifically in the HFSC queuing discipline. When the HFSC qdisc is utilized with NETEM and NETEM packet duplication is enabled, using HFSC_RSC it is possible to cause a double class insertion in the HFSC eligible tree. Under normal conditions, this would lead to an infinite loop in hfsc_dequeue() due to an RBTree cycle. However, by adding TBF as root qdisc, it is possible to prevent packets from being deque…

In This Thread: denizens of debian-user mailing list who refuse to accept that there are people who do creative work without wanting to use email.

Too bad that you can't test the theme feature of #GNOME on a live distro since setting up "gnome-shell-extensions" requires a reboot to enable it.
Edit: it wasn't the "gnome-shell-extensions", reboot was required for enabling "User Themes" (via Extensions).
However, a logout/login was OK as well and it did work on my Debian live distro again (logout do…

@… following the #rsyslog AI debacle, will you be adjusting things like the social contract to disallow the use of AI in that way?
Or better put: what _is_ Debian's stance on this type of AI use?

Debian Hint #9: If you need to know what version of Debian you're currently
running, look in /etc/debian_version or use 'lsb_release -sc' command. If you
want to know the codename for that version (for example, 5.0 is codenamed
'Lenny'), check this URL:

You want adonthell's soundtrack, or more specifically Waste's Edge's soundtrack?
What you want is, if you are searching in Debian related channels, the debian package adonthell-data!

I won't have time for that cause right now I'm focusing on Wesnoth main soundtrack...if I get time...

Sigh, DHCPv6 still unusable for an IPv6-only Debian 13 (trixie) netinstall. Gets a lease but drops it almost immediately and doesn't renew.
So, I have to:
- Get a lease
- Switch to the shell to see what the lease is
- Go back to network config and select static network
- Set that address with a netmask of ffff:ffff:ffff:ffff:: and a blank gateway
- Proceed with install

Progress today. I got ansible working with the vmware inventory, and managed to solve the old (v8) machines complaints about python. New update script completed that takes snapshots, checks RHEL or Debian base and does update/reboot. All in all, successful day. And during all that, I got XCP-ng working.

i think my pixelfed install has been slowing down #footiMac! I stopped it temporarily just to see if it would help and things sped up and responded immediately. So I may keep my pixelfed instance offline for the foreseeable future. I don't use it anyway. Maybe i'll test it out on my external host rather #footiMac just to take away any multi-hosted issues.
I'm now at 4.4.0 and am now moving to 4.4.1. Should be done shortly!

The Python library "YFinance" decided to force an upgrade. They did this by making the old version report a rate-limit error on every request.
Confusing.
Would have been better if they reported a "old version not supported" error or something instead. So that wasted some time.
That upgrade had dependencies which have dependencies upon a newer version of Python, so needed a whole OS upgrade really.
Which failed. Bricking the Rasp PI it was running on.
Oh well, complete rebuild of the whole machine and software it runs from scratch then.
That took all day yesterday. At the end I notice that the touch-screen doesn't touch. Needs drivers.
The drivers haven't been upgraded in six years. They brick the machine again when trying to install them on Debian Trixie.
Luckily, I kept good notes and could rebuild it all again much faster with no mistakes and knowing what to do and all the required custom software changes already made and saved.
So now I spent a whole day on annoying upgrade work because a single Python library decided to break the old version, and my Rasp Pi has no touch-screen. Which isn't ideal for a machine mostly operating as a fancy light switch for all the LED strips in the house.
This happens all the time in software. Millions of man hours wasted, so much hardware dumped because the drivers get abandoned.

In other news: Microsoft abandons Windows 10 any day now. Good luck to everyone faced with doing that lap on the upgrade treadmill.
I still have more work to do to bring up this RaspPi's software to where it was, but it'll have to wait, other things to do. At least it's back to sending me the nightly finance report and controlling the LED strips. If without a touch screen now.

#selfhost v4.4.1 upgrade complete! Phew that was a long one. But I think I found the root of the issue in the zombie pixelfed install. Maybe it had a memory leak (it wasn’t a current version) or maybe it was just too much for #footiMac.. but it was definitely slowing things down. Things are much more responsive now in general. I guess that brings the pixelfed testing to an end for now. But I'll probably bring it back up elsewhere if I get a chance.

When I wrote my last post above I got an error from my instance that the post was over the 500 character limit. Which is odd, since I have the limit set to 2000 on my instance.
Sure enough, it looks like somewhere along the line I blew away the config files that had been edited to enable the longer posts.
So consider this a test to see if I have correctly re-applied the hack, which is what it is, and completely unnecessarily, in the code for mastodon when this should be a simple switch/option in the admin panel!
(edit: confirmed: 2000 character limit restored)

She's done excellent work in her space under the stairs. nearly a full year of uptime and chugging away doing Mastodon, Pixelfed (until just now), weewx Weather server, homebridge, streaming relay point, and general web server.
My next trick will be to see if I can move mastodon from using local storage for media to using cloud storage. I'm at about 70% usage now, so it's time.

TL;DR: Forgejo
Installed Forgejo and configured its native runner from scratch on Debian. Started with Woodpecker, but it turned out unnecessary. Everything now works locally with Docker integration and a working CI workflow.
