I had a complete mental collapse, as well as some legal troubles that lead me to completely delete all of my Lemmy accounts. I was formerly jawa21, and decided to get an upgrade to jawa22. Like it or not, I am back for good and I am currently working on more edits to post here.
Another one on the pile.
It’s kind of funny. My original IRC handle was jawaslayer, because “Who would slaughter innocent Jawas?”
Well, I would!!
Whoa! You’re back! I’m so glad to see you here!!
You must be part Vorta
Am I Mr. Combs? The world may never know.
Please post a picture of your chin so that we may judge this matter.
Sounds like something Combs would say
He would also say “Tsunkatse!”
Are you a transporter clone, a replacement chief from the future, a parallel universe ensign, or a genesis device regenerated vulcan?
Welcome back regardless of your cloning techniques. We missed you.
I am a genesis device regenerated Vulcan transporter clone from the future that was recently promoted to cheif. I hope that helps.
Morn never shuts up
Welcome back, and I hope things are on the up now. You were missed.
Thanks! I’ll have you know that the weird spot you made in Kirk’s armpit still haunts my dreams, btw.
Oh no, I’m trying to remember what I did…
(Edit - was it the bad edit from the Elon salute? Lol)
Yes, yes it was.
I wanted to be clever and on theme (… something something Dax maybe?), but I decided to go with my first reaction.
Recently somebody pointed out to me that the Gorn’s eyes are microphone grills, and now I will never forget it.
I have no idea what this means, but I’m here for it regardless! :-P
To me, they definitely appear more similar to a disco ball than a microphone, but I can see how someone might draw that comparison
Ah that makes much more sense than what I (somehow) had in my head, which was that “Gowron eyes” are microphone grills. I was going to need to reevaluate EVERYTHING there for a minute… 🤪
Missed you, friend.
Sad to hear you’ve had a rough time, glad to hear that you’re back.
I hope things are looking up for you.
Your new account is one better.
“This jawa goes to 22. It’s one more.”
Welcome back!
Thanks! And, umm, I’m not sure how to put this but your captchas for sign-ups are broken :p
On my instance?
The only issue I’m aware of is the hosted instance of Tesseract I run (for anyone to use) was down yesterday evening / last night because the hosting provider had a DC migration go terribly wrong. My main UI and API are hosted in a different DC and shouldn’t have been affected.
Just curious b/c if there’s a problem I want to fix it lol
I tried for a solid 20 minutes to get beyond the captcha. It threw an error every time saying it was incorrect, but not a normal "failed " type error. It was completely broken. And yes your instance
Huh. I do show the HTTP 400 responses in the logs for the registration attempts, but not sure why. Maybe my rate limit got triggered? (it’s set pretty low, but hasn’t changed in over a year and have had successful signups since then). I don’t show that it even created the local user, which means it didn’t even process the request.
AFAIK, nothing in my infra relies (exclusively) on my assets in the NYC DC that was down.
FWIW, I just did a test signup, and it worked.
So only things I can think of is:
- It failed to send the verification email (I think Lemmy fails if it’s configured to send an email for a specific operation and the email server doesn’t respond).
- Rate limit (which you’d think would have been HTTP 429 from the API, but wouldn’t be the first HTTP standard the lemmy devs didn’t adhere to).
Either way, I’ll keep an eye on it (thanks for letting me know), and again, welcome back.
Welcome back, hopefully things are much better for you
Not much better, but better. Thanks to some kind people here I was able to get help. It was a rough time, eating like a broke college student at 43.
One can only be excited for peanut butter jelly time for so long. Glad you’re back.
We like it very much!
So close. You could have linked this:
Nah, I never leap about without my rubber boots and tutu. No matter how glad I to see someone.
