Why is this in past tense and saying it as if he’s done? Still going it looks like. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=v2utlMxAwtE. 30min from now it should beat the record.

No problem! The symtoms were light with it but beware of the thirst. They also have a max version that’s more hardcore. I couldn’t imagine what it’d do lol

Mucinex-D is a combined product that contains both guaifenesin and pseudoephedrine. It also has the side effect of making you so thirsty that you think you might have rabbies.

2 large mucinexs. It was also for 2 people, so if I can’t get any this time, I’ll have to have my SO get them. It would have been nice though having some left from last time.

I wouldn’t say easily… I tried to buy 2 boxes last time and wasn’t allowed to so hopefully when I go to pharmacy today I can buy more and not get raided under suspicion that I amanufacturing drugs to provide relief for a dang cold.

I would do a charge back with my bank / credit card. He didn’t get the goods or service he bought and it was because of the company so I’d say there is a chance. It also would hurt MSG a tiny bit.

I didn’t think of using read only replicas, that would probably be a very good way to go since its probably 80%+ of actions are reads. Thanks for answering, I am excited to see the how lemmy grows and thanks for all the devs hard work!

I 100% agree with this and there have been great strides since I started using Lemmy ~v0.17! That said at some point optimization will have lower returns and have a higher effort to put into and once a community grows extensively it likely might not be enough, so I was curious to what you guys were thinking at that point, something like Ctius for sharding postgres?

It is a k8s cluster and using ceph for all of my storage so the latency from that I bet is the largest reason and upping the memory offsets the disk writes. i also have another postgres DB syncing as a fallback for high availability. Fortunately after tuning the database and giving it enough RAM my instance has been running pretty stable for over a year without any changes.

I am also using less powerful computers for the entire infrastructure (not server grade) which brings to the point of having horizontal scaling on database I imagine will be a growing need with growing instances, communities, and users since it can be cheaper to run multiple smaller spec servers rather than a single with the added benefit of high availability.

Yeah I used pgtune as a base and found more memory needed to be assigned to certain spots especially to keep federation with bigger instances, otherwise timeouts would occur resulting in my instance being constantly behind.

That said I read postgres 17 is much more memory efficient, though I have yet to move my lemmy database to it yet since its the largest haha.

On the server perspective, I have a question, what are your thoughts for horizontal scaling on the database? This seems to be the biggest limitation and requiring higher spec hardware to scale especially for the bigger instances.

My tiny instance for example I give over 20GB of RAM just to postgres to make it perform efficient enough.

There is an issue open requesting this… I been following it for a while.

Issue #2631

The steam deck already does limit charging to 80% after being plugged in for an extended period of time so the battery cells will still have a charge but no be in the harmful range.

But that affects the president(s pocket) directly so that is the ONLY thing that will be investigated now probably.

Mine has a remote update functionality that has yet to be used! I think it only is for updated to the screens, anything else needs physical udates, I assume those are firmware upgrades on specific components.

Well he was driving one around without side mirrors… Looking it up apparently dealers are required to in the US, but some places at least may allow no side mirrors if a customer removes them? I can’t believe all states would allow that.

That said when they were first announced and talking about using SpaceX spaceship steel it sounded like it wouldn’t have crumple zones.

Like that we are speedrunning to making Earth into Mars?

I imagine it’d make the business more expensive low orbit satelites slowly fall into the atmosphere and are supposed to burn up after a couple of years. I imagine with lower orbits that they’d fall sooner and you’d have to launch more to sustain your system which then produces more pollution and perpetuates the problem.

Edit article says more space junk and slower burning up in the atmosphere as an effect so that’s interesting. If it becomes a space junk graveyard I imagine satellites will more frequently get damaged by them and become junk themselves?

They are against free school lunches…

Edit fix funny typo
