Despite being a person who gets confused by SSH keys every time I have to set them up I actually got things working today. Huzzah!

Crikey, just (finally) nailed the 'family photo gallery in a frame' functionality for my mum (with failing memory, in an assisted living situation) across the world. Can control it from here in Aotearoa (via screen share or ssh) with the extraordinarily handy 'RaspberryPi Connect' functionality. The key technologies are:
- Firefox (in kiosk mode),
- Immich (

Turns out #synology 's home folders are set to chmod 777 by default!

Tried switching to #ghostty on both macOS and #NixOS. On macOS, it replaced iTerm2 for me and the transition was pretty smooth. Also worked fine with fish and starship ootb. Just the still persisting SSH issues (which are blamed on ghostty being too new for external applications to recognize it)…

Just bought some stickers via CLI/Terminal

6 years and I'm still stumbling across stupid crap done in my hiatus.
E.g. someone partly disaggregated a system of shared SSH configs and keys such that when I made one change needed for slow-rolling updates across 3 dozen intimately interoperating physical hosts, it created a nightmare.
So now I rebuild what I did in 2016. At least I documented it, so it took far less time to fix than to diagnose.

I never imagined getting used to a new #HPC infrastructure would be such a pain.
I got used to cli, ssh access, bash scrips before, but suddenly everything is handled via a GUI, everything is containerized.
AND ALL MY WORKFLOWS ARE BROKEN!
I don't even manage to set up a simple #conda environment.

I’ve never seen this memory issue on #MacOS before. I had left Safari with Mela’s share sheet/importer app snippet open overnight and came back to a nearly unresponsive computer. I assume one of these has a memory leak. I was able to reboot via the shell using SSH from another device.

Going back to first principles on this debugging. Which is definitely not going to be done tonight.
1) The baseline configuration (MULT_AREA_OPT=0), regardless of REGFILE_OUT_REG setting, works in hardware. It gives answers that match the NaCl curve25519 implementation to every query I've tried, and is interoperable with OpenSSH (when I put the bitstream on a board, I can SSH to it).
With that in mind...
2) The original test vector in my simulation that I had thought wa…

Time wasting of the day: I'm working on an #Ansible playbook to configure my NAS. I just want to create a few tasks and test it. I get "no route to host", even though it works perfectly well with plain SSH.
I tweak a few parameters. I Google Search. I ask GitHub Copilot. Zilch.

related: I figured I should see if I can cut down on the size of the remote media and came across this (fairly aged) post about pruning the caches.
https://ricard.dev/improving-mastodons-disk-usage/
So I have initiated:
# Prune remote accounts that never interacted with a local user
RAILS_ENV=production /home/mastodon/live/bin/tootctl accounts prune;
And the ETA is 33hrs on pruning 325,000 accounts!
lol. clearly I will not be able to do this in an interactive ssh session. I'll setup a cron for it to do its work silently in the background.
How did I miss this basic management?

So Bitvise, the developer of an SSH client that competes with PuTTY, the widely-used open-source SSH and Telnet client, somehow got hold of the domain putty.org and is using it to promote its own products.
Here's how Bitvise responded to a tech blogger/journalist who wrote about this situation.

Anyone use Fedihost for their mastodon instance?
I get an error ("something has gone wrong”) when I try to load my instance.

Any ideas?
