    It's 2am and I'm generally in a bad mood so I'm blogposting on Telegram.

    Everyone here has seen the technocrats stomp around and try to dictate who can do what. There's this fucking asshole named Jeremy Bicha. This guy signed to fire Richard Stallman, a founder of the very important FSF organization, and a literal autistic savant who contributed a lot to the core philosophy of free and open source software. FOSS is in every single thing you use. iOS uses foss UNIX utilities, Android is open source, almost all web servers in existence run some flavor of Linux that is completely free. It is the reason why computers develop at such a breakneck pace.

    Bicha signed to get this guy thrown out of his own organization and it was successful, he resigned. Stallman is a sperg so he said that he didn't think the accuser against Epstein was credible. We tolerate spergs like Stallman in the industry because autistics write good code. They can figure out why compilers don't work. No normal person can sit down and figure out why a compiler doesn't work. There's a reason there's so many trannies in tech, it's because we know we need mind-broken autistic trannies to figure out why compilers don't work and then fix them.

    Bicha also doesn't like fascists. He contributes to a project called Wayland. Very long story very short: Wayland is a replacement for X11, an API for rendering application windows on Linux. Not everyone is happy that X11 is being replaced and so, as is customary in FOSS, it was forked and rebranded XLibre, an X11 modernization project. Lots of chuds in XLibre so Bicha literally spreged out at them and defaced their wiki calling them nazis.

    Jeremy Bicha sounds like a really moralizing guy, right? Lots of principles. Cares a lot about protecting people from chuds and groomers. The issue: he is a convicted pedophile. Not just a pedophile, he is a sadistic incestuous pedophile who torture-raped his own little sister.

    Canonical (the for profit company that owns Ubuntu, and his employer) knew of this conviction when they hired him. However, their open-minded philosophy is that sadistic pedophile child torturers are OK to hire. They only screen out white collar criminals like hackers or commercial fraudsters.

    So while these technocrats are finger-wagging at foundations for controversial opinions and condemning competing projects, while they're shutting down important infrastructure and dictating who gets to be on the Internet, they are literally child rapists.

    Remote hands are on their way to the datacenter so we will have downtime today as hardware and networking is configured.

    Just an FYI that actual work began about half an hour ago.

    Old, broken drives were replaced and the main raid was unaffected so there appears to be no data loss.

    We are nearing completion. There will be a second round of work that will either happen later tonight or tomorrow but should not involve hard downtime again.

    Round 1 of maintenance is complete. I do not expect further extended downtime. We will have another round of maintenance either tonight or tomorrow before you will see performance increases.

    Round 2 is now.
  • @kiwifarms #437 07:02 AM, 16 Jul 2025
    New raid set up, database moved over. Done for the night. More optimizations to come this week.

    An issue with connectivity affecting one of the 8 randomly assigned frontends has been resolved. Issues with page loads or image loads not happening should be resolved.
