Les larmes qui coulent sont amères mais plus amères encore sont celles qui ne coulent pas.


"Proverbe" introuvable en gaélique et en anglais. Par contre, on trouve une citation très proche dans l'homélie LXIV "Sur les actes des Apôtres" de saint Jean Chrysostome (vers 400 après J.-C.).

Extrait de l'homélie LXIV "Sur les actes des Apôtres" de saint Jean Chrysostome:

Les larmes qui coulent sont moins amères que celles qui ne sortent pas du cœur; celles-là soulagent la douleur, celles-ci l'augmentent en la concentrant en nous-mêmes. Ainsi, lorsqu'on est dans la peine et qu’on ne peut exprimer son chagrin, pour ne pas paraître rechercher la vaine gloire, on souffre plus vivement que si l'on donnait cours à sa douleur.

Ils ne savaient pas que c'était impossible, alors ils l'ont fait.


Citation faussement attribuée, selon les sources, à Mark Twain, Winston Churchill, Albert Einstein ou JF Kennedy. La citation est en réalité de Marcel Pagnol:
«Tout le monde savait que c'était impossible. Un ignare ne le savait pas: il l'a fait.» (Cinématurgie de Paris, 1967)

Qui avale une noix de coco fait confiance en son anus.


Proverbe de Côte d'Ivoire apparue dans "Afrique magazine" en 2003.
Je me permettrais cette modification:
«Qui avale une noix de coco a une grande gueule et fait confiance en son anus.»

|Qui avale une noix de coco fait confiance en son anus.|



Slightly sketchy account makes me uncomfortable and others report it... I politely give them a warning to migrate before shutting them down...

Day and a half later "Protocols of the Elders of Zion"... whelp, that's an immediate delete...

2 months into a relationship and god I love her so damn much. There's a lot of passion, but there's also that steady comfort and safety... God I already can't imagine life without her.

How do y'all process the lesbian uhaul instinct? lol

Servers that consume significant resources (ie. fediverse servers...) cost so much... 😭


Sorry for the downtime


Housing situation has been a pain, still on the temporary server environment and been hitting major resources bottlenecks.

I'm hoping to get a place sooner, but I've hit some roadblocks that very likely will push it drastically further out... in which case I'll need to spend more money on this environment to return things to stable.

Reminder that I'm covering this entirely out of my own pocket and these constraints are because I'm between homes and can't use my own much cheaper hardware. If you appreciate this instance I would very much appreciate a donation.



Long time no writing here


I started to digging into my latest hobby of #bookbinding (but it's not the only one i assure you)
And made several pamphlet, with also some custom design.
I recently made couple of handmade hardcover journals. One using a custom hero-quest character sheet, the other one is just a lined notebook.
More info for who is interested are available here: ko-fi.com/post/Two-more-bookbi… (don't worry all my posts on #ko-fi are free)
It also gave my a nice surprise of receiveing the first donation ever (even if it will be the last it still made me happy! :) ) Any opinion comment is appreciated.
These are couple of pictures of my latest works:

Hello there. Glasgow calling.
I'm an analogue digital hybrid who cares about mental health issues, music, photography and art.
I'm deeply suspicious of ducks (in a less than serious way) and although I exist on Mastodon I'm keen to migrate to Friendica.
Best wishes all.

@Shiri Bailem Thankyou very much. Hope you are well.



Mist and fog clouds over this domain. The thoughts of raceme flowers and pinnated ferns hang over my minds eye as I walk with covered pupils. The hard dirt feels rock like, with an occasional trip over roots.

Listened to a command on the internet informing me how to remove dependencies using pacman on arch. Ended up removing ca-certificates and fucking my system. Had to reinstall those packages from cache.


It's just too warm to do anything... I loathe this heat. I want the winter temperatures back... 😩

Still don't understand what the differences between the 3 timelines "latest posts", "latest creation" and "latest activity" in Friendica are. 😆

@Shiri Bailem Thank you so much for the detailed explanation! It’s been very helpful in understanding the differences between the individual timelines.


Since nerdica.net collapsed, I was searching for a new Friendica instance. I've finally found one.

@Shiri Bailem Yeah. They messed something up with their backups while updating Friendica or something like that. They couldn't manage to restore everything and gave up, sadly. But I'm glad I've found your server! 😀

So the temporary system had some sort of failure, I'm not even 100% sure what caused it to be honest. It went down sometime yesterday and some of the virtual drives got corrupted, which caught the database and the virtual gateway device.

I was able to restore the system... most of the way. Thankfully there are backups of the database, but some of them were also flawed as well, the most recent intact one was from 5/16, so 5 days were lost.

To be clear, this problem was exacerbated by the fact that there's not as much redundancy in the temporary setup (sadly it looks like it'll be a few more months before I have a place of my own and can spin up my own hardware again). But I'm going to still look at how I might get those in better shape.

As far as how long it took: I had a busy day yesterday and didn't see that the server was down until I was too exhausted to do anything about it, so it had to wait until I got off work today... each attempt at restoring the database takes around an hour, so that took *a while* to get restored.



Image Upload Trouble


If y'all have had issues uploading images... sorry about that.

I missed a setting when re-configuring the server after transfer to it's current environment and it's fixed now.

Longer Explanation: there are two servers involved, a reverse proxy and then the actual Friendica server. The Friendica server accepted uploads up to 100MB... the proxy didn't have that setting... so it would just go for a bit, then timeout. Added that setting to the proxy and all solved.

I like crafting things basically. And writing OS (and about Osdev in general).
Also have an interest into arts, and so far i made a small bunch of paintings (i'm a newbie so don't expect high level art), i will maybe post the photos here in the future.

Sorry I've not been on here for a while. Been busy.


Life has been very busy lately. I have been diagnosed with Breast Cancer and had a lump removed & a lot of appointments. I dressing changes 3 times a week. I am having CBT counselling.
