postgre-sql-major-version-upgrades-docker-containers

PostgreSQL major version upgrades in Docker containers are a pain in the ass. How is it that MariaDB handles this much more smoothly?  #postgresql #admin

had-leave-btconf-bit-earlier-because

Had to leave #btconf a bit earlier because of, well, life happening.

Thanks to @marcthiele for making @btconf this gem that it is and looking forward to meeting all these lovely people I've met in the last days again soon. I'm full of inspirations and ideas right now that I have to process first, somehow.

nobody-seems-need-drives-and-windows

As nobody seems to need drives A:  and B: on Windows anymore (or are there any floppy disk users still out there), I thought it would be a nice idea to mount the backup drive from my NAS to B: (as in 'backup').

Seems the devs of bun, the JavaScript runtime (https://bun.com), also don't use floppy disks and use B: for their virtual file system.

So, better leave drives A: and B: alone when using Windows.

fixed-webmentions-display-and-rendering-website

Fixed Webmentions display and rendering on my website. I even added cute little overlay icons to differentiate the different types of webmentions.

And, well, I reconfigured my Docker infrastructure to properly support IPv6 on the way.  Don't ask why, but this works as well now. ;)

See it in action on https://bjoern.stierand.org/notes/socialmedia - scroll to the bottom of the page.

while-trying-migrate-some-self-hosted-apps

While trying to migrate some self-hosted apps to a new empty VPS yesterday, I noticed an unusually high load, issues during upgrade (initramfs scripts broke one by one because of missing libs) and a lot of network traffic with no actual services running. I set up the server ...

A blast from the past. Love listening to Ray Cokes' voice and his music selection. Takes me back to the good old #MTV days.

jkphl-moin-und-ein-gutes-neues

@jkphl Moin und ein gutes neues Jahr noch! Ich wollte Dich vorwarnen, dass ich meinen Spotify-Account zum 15.1. gekündigt habe, da ich mit dem ganzen Content, den sie neben Musik und Hörbüchern in die App kippen nicht mehr zufrieden bin. Dein Account, der an meinem Family-Abo hängt, wird also am 15.1. auf das Free-Level runterfallen.
Ich schaue gerade nach Alternativen. Wenn da wieder ein Platz im Family-Abo frei ist denke ich an Dich. :)

leaving-btconfmastodonsocial-once-again-with-lot

Leaving @btconf once again with a lot of new input after 2 days of nice interactions with really lovely people. After attending the events in Munich and Düsseldorf I could now cross off Berlin from my bucket list. Thanks to @marcthiele , the speakers and the crew for a really great time and see you all in Düsseldorf in 2026.

I really enjoy the time when all the software on my servers - the OS, the Tailscale client, Docker, all the self-hosted stuff I'm running - is up to date. What a bliss, those 30 seconds.
