The diaspora* pod I’m using is closing down after several years of service. While I understand it’s admin and hope the next project goes better I’m now looking for a new one. Any recommendations for DE/EN, RSS nice and mayhap a technical audience but less bots?
Kind: Notes
Remotely execute arbitrary code vulnerability nginx and php-fpm
This is bad. Looks like there is a execute arbitrary code remotely vulnerability in nginx and php-fpm when fastcgi_split_path_info
is used.
That’s a very common setup.
https://thehackernews.com/2019/10/nginx-php-fpm-hacking.html has all the gore (CVE-2019-11043).
Mastodon POSSE
Size Matters
Of course you can add a ~12mb and 7360x4912px huge deposit picture on your company’s services website and resize it to 370x247px with CSS. It’s just a mighty stupid idea.
Why did I pick IT? Why? Ignorance is bliss.
Ranting about Medium
That’s it. Medium has totally lost it. Until now I got some more or less interesting daily highlights for programming by mail. This is now mixed up with a shiton of sex and dating related articles. WTF is this? I’m a programmer so I must be lonley in my bunk? Know what #Medium? F*ck you! Subscriptions halted, AccessToken revoked, added to MX blacklist. I am so tired of you and your bad UX anyway.
Coverage requirements gas stations
Looks like Germany is about to require #EV charger for #ElectricVehicles at gas stations.
I’m not sure I like my #EV near fluid and flamable operational materials. I hear this is dangerous.
What if that stuff catches fire?
One of those days
It’s one of those days. Looks like the power on button broke. It’s stuck and won’t fire any more.
Opened the case and shortened the pins manually. There’s work to be done and I’ve to time for this s*** 😀
On an diaspora instance shutdown
Kinda sad to read that my favorite Diaspora pod is probably about to shut down but tbf I’m surprised how long it lasted. There’s a reason that ppl flock to Mastodon / ActivityPub instead. Less technical and way better UX to begin with.
As for myself I became my own Hub by following the #IndieWeb principles:
https://indieweb.org/principles
Losing this pod means basically I’ll have to re-syndicate my content somewhere else again (if I bother at all). A lesson learnt thanks to G+, Geocities and yeah – even Diaspora and even with pubsubhubbub that is basically a nice idea.
Wishing it’s admin all the best for his next project if the decision is pulling the plug.

Learn to let go
Hey man, don’t get too attached to things. Learn to let go!
