ok friends. Elk.infosec.exchange is updated to the latest version. Don't have too much fun.

@jerry not sure graphana is going to help you there

Does Elk only work as a docker container now?

@jerry I would skip the kibana part, last time I tried it, it was a pain. I found graphana to be better. You can run graphana against mysql and skip the whole elk stack depending on what you are doing.

EDIT: while this did solve some problems for some people, it didn’t solve the notification issue that was reported.

I just found and fixed an issue with infosec.exchange that I hadn't seen in a long time. The problem was that sometimes feeds would not refresh, particularly notifications. The problem started around the time I upgraded to 4.2.0, however that isn't the problem. A look at the web server error logs shows lots of instances of this error:
24: Too many open files

This is a problem I fought a lot in the early days. The issue is the file limits in ubuntu are too low for busy web servers (infosec.exhange web servers regularly have 3000-4000 active connections)

The fix is pretty simple - adding
LimitNOFILE=1000000
to the nginx.service file. The problem is that when I upgraded mastodon, I also upgraded nginx. And apparently, like a bastard, nginx replaced the system service file, which no longer contained the LimitNOFILE=1000000 statement.

Hope that helps someone else...

Is anyone having issues with notifications not showing up in their mastodon notifications until refreshing the web browser?

@jerry I saw that on my phone last night, I thought it was some firewall app I had installed running tusky

The amount of time I spend laying on a heating pad seems directly proportional to my age. Will need a full body heating pad soon.

@jerry I just looked one up, $2500! At some scale it just becomes a sauna. Now I want a sauna

Apparently unlike the leader of another social media network, I have never turned off satellites to thwart the military operations of one of my country’s allies in their attempt to defend themselves against an aggressor.

There was an alarming amount of porn being recorded on other boats out on the lake today.

No, I don’t know where the threshold is between a normal amount and an alarming amount is.

@jerry 1-3 porns that's fine, after 4 .. well that is alarming

@jerry I just started watching it and I am really liking parts of it. But they keep interrupting the good stuff with sex scenes. I don't care ! More psychohistory and math!!!

My wife and I are talking about downsizing our house. Our kids are grown and I need something before it’s time for the old folks home - but I’ve concluded the new house has to have an atrium for my orchids. I’m also liking the idea of building a house out of shipping containers but my wife is less than enthusiastic about the idea

Eloquent_Vogon,
@Eloquent_Vogon@infosec.exchange avatar

@jerry I did a lot of research, I just downsized the house and upsized the land. Building is going to cost a lot and shipping containers are a horrible medium if you need to meet any code requirements. Better to build a small footprint eco house out of icf or some corn bricks. We ended up buying a small house 1k sq/ft on a few acres outside of a small town. Best move ever !
