Roni Laukkarinen<p>Been doing good shit lately - building clustered server stacks for some of the world's greatest corporations.</p><p>I've been doing Bash programming for over 20 years, long before Puppet and Ansible came along, so I never really got into those technologies. I gave them a chance, but I prefer having full control, access to sources, and flexibility in my work. That's why I'm not a fan of the previously mentioned tools - or things like Tailwind and Docker. I love building my own tools and frameworks.</p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Bash" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Bash</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Servers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Servers</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/SysOps" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SysOps</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Sysop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sysop</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Work" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Work</span></a></p>

Roni Laukkarinen<p>I absolutely love being a sysadmin to this server and many others, even if it means during my holiday I need to be the maintenance guy. During my Christmas holidays so far I've </p><p>- Improved one clean up script that had an error which temporarily made one of the smaller disks fill up too soon<br>- Fixed an nginx block for a domain that didn't allow renewing a Let's Encrypt HTTPS certificate for a certain domain after database migration and re-release of a web service<br>- Repaired an old MySQL database manually, because of a very old MyISAM corruption bug</p><p>Some people find this stressful, but for me it's like taking the trash out, these are chores I'm very accustomed to. Most of the weeks they require nothing, but for some reason it's the holidays when some things just happen. That's life.</p><p>I'm very glad Mastodon stack is so sophisticated compared to some of the older stacks I'm running also I thank myself and my experience from last year that I really built it almost fool-proof and big-enterprise style. This is why no big hiccups present here, yet. 24/7 backup system is in place, too.</p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/SysAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SysAdmin</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/SysOp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SysOp</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Servers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Servers</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/MastoAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a></p>
Roni Laukkarinen<p>:skull360: Heads up! I need to rescale the database drive soon. It’s growing and I want the disk to be able to hold more data. The current max size is about 40 GB and I will grow it to 500 GB to make it more future proof.</p><p>This means I have to shut down my instance for this operation to make sure there will be no data corruption. The downtime will be probably only mere minutes, but there will be visible downtime. I’ll let you know the exact time for this to take place.</p><p>Database operations always make me kinda anxious for some reason despite the fact there has not been a single issue with them for me in the past.</p><p><a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/MementoMoriSocial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MementoMoriSocial</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/MastoAdmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MastoAdmin</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/SysOp" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SysOp</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/Servers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Servers</span></a> <a href="https://mementomori.social/tags/PostgreSQL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PostgreSQL</span></a></p>

Derek 🌈<p>There is a little bit of a history behind this Mastodon Instance. SMUG stands for "Sequoia Macintosh Users Group" It was a BBS operated using <a href="https://smugglersbbs.com/tags/FirstClass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>FirstClass</span></a> server in <a href="https://smugglersbbs.com/tags/Humboldt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Humboldt</span></a> County, <a href="https://smugglersbbs.com/tags/California" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>California</span></a>. It went offline a very long time ago. I found the original domain (htan.org) bought it and now we are here. ❤️ 😎 Attached are some images from the original <a href="https://smugglersbbs.com/tags/sysop" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sysop</span></a>. SMUGgler's was the first online experience I had at home as a young little nerd. 🤓</p>

Steve Ross<p>Back when I was a teenager, before the Internet was a thing, I was the <a href="https://mountaintop.social/tags/SYSOP" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>SYSOP</span></a> (System Operator) of a <a href="https://mountaintop.social/tags/BBS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BBS</span></a> (bulletin board system). People would dial into my computer via my cutting-edge 9600 bps modem and post messages on discussion boards, send email to other users of the system, etc. Running a Mastodon instance reminds me of that, although federation takes it to the next level. I hope I can do this long term, because it’s way way cooler than Twitter and feels like going back to my roots.</p>
