This is wrong, I use IPTables but the device is absolutely not dedicated lol.

I just grep'd the nginx access log for the lemmy.world IP address and looked at the access times. you can see if it's timing out is the response code is 400. sadly ~57% of the requests are currently timing out today. it seems to work for a bit then time out for about 10 minutes, at least there is some coming through now, before the requests had stopped completely.

lemmy.ml is also back in my logs. yay
lemmy.ml is almost perfect on the timeouts, so they must have managed to fix it.

It's only been a few minutes but I'm seeing non timing out federation in my nginx access log. Hopefully it keeps working.
Also at least on my instance, lemmy.ml has completely broken, I'm not getting anything from it at all anymore. it dropped out at 13:52:22 and besides a couple few messages it's been silence since then. It seems to be working on lemmy.world so I'm not sure what's causing that.

Download ML thing.
make new venv.
pip install -r requirements.txt.
pip can't find the right versions.
pip install --update pip.
pip still can't find the right versions.
install conda.
conda breaks for some reason.
fix conda.
install with conda.
pytorch won't compile with CUDA support.
install 2,000,000GB of nvidia crap from conda.
pytorch still won't compile.
install older version of gcc with conda.
pytorch still won't compile.
reinstall the entire operating system with debian 11.
apt can't find shitlib-1.
install shitlib-2.
it's not compatible with shitlib-1.
compile it from source.
automake breaks.
install debian 10.
It actually works.
"Join our discord to get the model".
give up.

in case anyone wants to know why the bot isn't working anymore: for some reason I seem to have been soft-defederated by lemmy.world and my instance isn't getting any new comments or posts

Why does The Register get paid? /s

!wave

I have had some awful trouble trying to upgrade to lemmy 0.18.0 and blew up my instance trying. It took a while for federation to fix so your comment probably got lost in the chaos

Do you mean 2.5"? It probably is a deal breaker sadly, unless I can build a DIY SAN or something (I would love to). It sounds bad but I'm probably going to super cheap out on HDDs and buy those crappy £9 SAS drives from ebay and just use aggressive RAID and backups

Also, I can't find a single one of those that isn't shipped from the USA

I have a stupid overcomplicated networking script that never works. So every time i set up a new server I need to fix a myriad of weird issues I've never seen before. Usually I setup a server with a keyboard and mouse because SSH needs networking, if it's a cloud machine its the QEMU console or hundreds of reboots.
