Ok. I am tired of Infosec.exchange being sluggish. I just submitted a crazy order with Hetzner to upgrade the instance. Hopefully the last time for a while. I ordered a dell AMD Genoa 48 core server with 256 GB of ram to act as a database and redis server, a dell 64 core sapphire rapids server with 256gb of ram to act as the single front end/puma/streaming server, and an amd 7950 with 128gb of ram to run minio (insourcing from Backblaze).

I ordered all with 10g network interfaces to be connected to the same switch.

I continue to see issues with Backblaze performance causing issues with posting.

This will consolidate the environment down from about 13 servers to 4 (I will keep using less expensive servers on 1G networks for Sidekiq if it can’t run on the sapphire rapids server.

I will be putting that behind Fastly for global distribution and ddos mitigation. I don’t know whether I’ll keep serving media via bunny.net or try to do that with Fastly also. Bunny works pretty well and is cost effective for media delivery.

Anyhow, changes are coming. Thanks for patience.

@jerry Damn... that's some beefy stats for this home we have here. Thank you for all that you do!

Am I bent out of shape about the CSAM acronym being hijacked? Yes, yes I am.

With just one toot, @jerry got a slew of curious googlers added to some new lists 😂

Hmmm apparently if you move from server A to server B then back to server A, your followers don’t come back with you.

Looks like 2/3rds of my followers didn’t migrate back when I moved from @therealahall. I don’t think there’s anything @jerry can do but good to know for fellow and migrators like myself.

I have all of the data, maybe there’s something I can do on an import?

@jerry @therealahall yeah I kind of figured that was the case since you don’t own the external servers but figured I’d shout it out anyway. My loss of ~50 followers won’t kill me even though that is well north of of half of what I had 😂

This just means, much like the Bears, I’m in rebuilding mode.

I wonder how long it will be until we start seeing targeted/personalized ads that use deepfakes of people in your social network…

@jerry or creepier, from yourself…

Listen, me, I know you’re struggling with XYZ, but since we’ve started using PRODUCT, our life has improved dramatically.

Then imagine this from a weight loss scheme that shows you 20 pounds lighter. Or worse, tied to an MLM

Should we even let married people who have consensual sex with each other run for public office? Seems kind of risky https://apnews.com/article/susanna-gibson-virginia-house-of-delegates-sex-acts-9e0fa844a3ba176f79109f7393073454

@jerry it won’t be long until we have candidates that have their OF link in their campaigns.

No shame intended, I just bet it will be a thing one day

@jerry the campaign attack ads might get interesting
