Almost to 400 followers, thanks to everyone who follows me and shout out to kirby who is half of them
Iβd tag Kirby but idk which one he uses now ππ

@m0xee @Tony Why are you not on your instance?
I follow you so hard
@dcc
Man, I don't even see the parent post, the one that is "It seems i have not been followed yet......" β this branch is just hanging attached to the opening post. Nor I can even look it up, and it's "Unable to parse JSONβ¦" in PeromlaFE already
That's what I'm talking about! If I follow you, it will receive everything from annihillation.social β I'm telling you, this will kill the poor thing
But okay, let's make an experimentβ¦

That's a little personal, don't you think?
Oh. Very well then, carry on.

I did! And I have played around with timeouts in Pemorla itself, but it either starts dropping absolutely everything due to timeouts or the queues grow insanely long and it slows down to a crawl β I have found more or less balanced values and given up on improving it further. Most probably this hardware isn't powerfull enough, considering it's also a bittorrent seedbox, hosts git and a few other things.
Oh, yes, it also runs a Python script that displays clock on a monome β really pretty
I hope you understand β I can't just get rid of the clock

Oh come on, it's a low-powered Mac from 2005 designed with average joe tasks in mind β there were no multicore G4s and it's maxxed out at 1Gb.
It's surprising actually that this thing can pull off even this β thanks to PowerPC CPUs being really good at multitasking for the time, I think context switching is a cheaper operation than it used to be on Intel, that is why they remain responsive even when the system is overtaxed.

mac's do last, mine is 6 years old and it's still chugging along with very few issues. The new ones with the M chip can run stable diffusion.
They are quality products...

@Tony
Yeah, they are. Most of my computers are still Macs: I'm typing this post on a Mac Pro from 2008 β it's really old, but with two quad-core Xeons and 28 gigs of RAM, still a capable machine; one of my laptops is a Late 2011 MacBook Pro, quad-code i7 and 16 gigs β can still do everything I throw at it, I don't do stable diffusion or professional video editing in 4kβ¦ It can build even something big like Firefox in reasonable time β the only thing I care about.
I don't really need much hardware-wise β I can even do fun things on my ThinkPad T43, also from 2005 I think β the web being the biggest problem with 3 gigs of RAM, it can pull off 1 tab of modern web shit, but not more.
I'm not even sure I want newer hardware β especially Macs, I' disappointed in both Windows and Mac OS X (I don't even know what's it called now, macOS?). Running linux system on ARM Mac based on reverse-engineered shit sounds too unreliableβ¦ I'd probably just pick something from System 76, Purism, Tuxedo, Framework β there are lots of hardware makers nowadays targeted at linux users.

Right now don't see the point in investing in something like that. When I get a job and have some cache to spend on these things, I'd probably pick one of those Altra boards and move all my stuff to this system. Right now everything is spread among equally anemic machines, e.g. my Gemini capsule and squid are hosted on a Genesi Efika MX, a single-core 32-bit ARM machine with half a gig of RAM, I'm not even sure how old it is β still runs
