I know a few people IRL that were first person witnesses to what happened. From what they say, Leif was escorting families at the event when a guy in full crusader armor hit him with a megaphone, and Leif defended himself and those families with mace. Now, I’m a bit fuzzy on the other people involved, but there was supposedly some parent with his 12 year old kid who had a pepper ball gun pointed at Leif and a knife of some kind who also were involved. And yes, the KID had a pepper ball gun.

Edit: the guy in crusader armor is known around the Cleveland, Ohio area as the Alt Knight who pretty much protests anything even remotely progressive. Pic below.

Here is a (not that great pic) I snagged of him at a drag story hour event I was at yesterday. Looks like his mom bought him a new helmet lmao.

I haven’t watched it yet but there is video of the whole thing somewhere online as well if you want to see what happened.

What’s also funny is he showed up to court to testify against Leif in his chainmail armor. I don’t think it helped his case.

2 cats really isn’t too different than one cat. I mean, yeah, you’ll pay for another vet bill from time to time but it’s usually not that big a deal. If you can afford it I’d say go for it.

Federation broke on my instance

So, I run my own instance (dandroid.app), and as of about 10 days ago, all outgoing federation stopped working. Incoming federation still seems to work fine. I’m not sure exactly what changed. It was around the time that I set up pihole on my network, but I have since shut down pihole and federation has not resumed. I have...

Try select * from instance where domain = ‘popular.instance’; and see the last time it was updated via the updated column. I’ve been having to update that column with update instance set updated = now(); because once that timestamp becomes older than 3 days your instance assumes it’s “dead”.

seahorse,

I believe anything prior to that timestamp will not federate. New stuff should.

I was shooting my fully legal, registered SBR at a private range I was sharing with some boomer. He saw the length of it and was like, “Ooooh! Don’t get caught by law enforcement with that or you’ll be in deep shit!”. I explained that I had all the proper paperwork for it and even showed him that it was engraved with my name and the city I “built” the gun in like the law requires. He was still like, “…yeah but that’s a stock, not a pistol brace”. I just decided to drop the topic after assuring him one more time that it’s legal.

In my case docker didn’t have a default max size that logs would stop at, so they just grew and grew exponentially. I also had the highest log level turned on to debug something so it was constantly logging a bunch of data.

Nazis/extremists don’t respond to rational arguments against their ideology.

seahorse,
@seahorse@midwest.social avatar

That’s different than arguing with people on the internet. Daryl Davis shows these people their shared humanity face-to-face. All I’ve ever seen from letting fash “debate” people on the internet is them slowly spreading their ideology to vulnerable people who are viewing the same conversations. Saying stuff that sounds reasonable on the surface like, “not everyone you disagree with is a nazi” even though they want to kill minorities as if that motive vs not wanting that to happen/doing everything in your power to make sure it doesn’t happen is a simple disagreement.

Ohio effort to legalize recreational marijuana gets enough signatures for November ballot (thehill.com)

However, even if the measure passes, it could face opposition from the state legislature. Because it is an initiated statute, it could be modified or repealed by Ohio lawmakers. Gov. Mike DeWine ( R ) has previously stated that he does not support legalized marijuana....

That’s what I use for my NAS. I remember with protonvpn you need to pull down the config file for the server you want to use and place it in the proper directory. Here’s part of my docker-compose:

I half agree with his gun regulation stance. While ideally there would be more caution given to who owns guns that is unfortunately not the world americans have been living in the last 80 years or so. The fascists have guns, lots of them, and I’m not giving mine up while they have them.

Everything else he said is 100% based.

Unfortunately, there’s also a record number of far right nutters running for Congress as well as other positions.
