5th gen iPod resurrection continues.

  • 5th gen iPod resurrection continues. Battery and SD adaptor came in. Installed a 256GB SD and it started up saying it needed to be restored. Hooked to Mac and Finder opened restore dialog, confirm a few steps and off we go! At least I think so, no progress shown on either device. Left overnight and this morning there was a happy ✅ on the iPod (mac said it was still restoring). Unplug, replug, and still needs restore. Tried a couple times before swapping in smaller 4GB SD to hopefully speed things up. Same thing. Found YT video showing extra step of force quitting AMPDeviceDiscoveryAgent process, which worked! More stupid apple tricks authorizing and re-authorizing my music and finally there's music synced to iPod and it's playing!
    Well, it looks like it is. Would you believe I can't find headphones with 1/4" jack? All of the ones stuffed in drawers have a lightning connection. 🥹

    @jerzone very cool!

    The sad trombone part of this story is that after I got the parts secured and snapped the (tight!) iPod case back together I realized it still had the 4GB SD card installed.

  • @coreysnipes Having mostly physical controls (wheel has touch for volume, scrolling) is a treat. Although I'll admit to trying to long press select button to see if there was a second function on one of the screens. ":^)

  • In my humble opinion, hosting instant messaging is something completely different than ActivityPub - due to the instant aspect of it.

    With this, availability is a far more important aspect of it all. Hence the high available setup. Ofcourse, backups are just as important, but it shouldn't cause a full service outage in the unlikely event that one datacenter has a blackout.

    You have given me your trust - and I want to do just by all of you. No matter whether you are messaging a family member about dinner or blowing the whistle about injustice.

    At the moment in the upcoming two weeks when Exquisite.chat will be taking signups, I will be vocal about it. Thank you all - Exquisite has been such an awesome experience from the very start. And continues to be just that.

  • @josh three years sounds reasonable especially if it's a no-brand. Are the batteries replaceable in your UPS?

  • @bbfnart I have sporadically seen this kind of stuff, usually starting by this or that artist out of personal initiative, and I agree that it's an incredible way of discovering new artists (heck, I remember this even from the old webcomic days when everyone had their own website and this was one of the primary ways in which artists helped each other gain visibility). I guess that here the only way to get something like this started is to do the legwork? Hopefully your call gets heard!

  • Announcing Exquisite.chat

    Within the upcoming two weeks, Exquisite.chat will officially be launched. The first iteration will be an XMPP server - in a later phase more services will be added.

    It does have a few twists:

    Uses a hardened setup, powered by both OpenBSD and HardenedBSD. We have our own STUN/TURN setup so you can talk / video with your beloved ones.No logs, full encryption to benefit your (and our) privacy. It is setup in 'high availability' mode. Served from two different datacenters in the Netherlands (our main datacenter, DC1 in Amsterdam, but now adding Rotterdam to the mix) for increased resiliency. So, no clouds (oh hai us-east-1).And some more details that will follow shortly

    Might happen less frequently here but I still see people doing some over on the #

    It would make me feel fuzzy inside if we could see more art community challenge on here
