I’ve woken up with pain though my shoulders, must have slept funny. Getting older and waking up uncomfortable is rubbish.
What’s happening, dudes? I’m looking forward to taking the little man to a burger restaurant tomorrow that I’ve been trying to go to for ages. Yay for burgers.
Apparently lemmy.world will be going down for an attempted server upgrade at 1900 BST, any posts after this time may be lost if @ruud@lemmy.world has to roll the update back. If successful, we should see an improvement in performance. 🤞
Edit: back up and seems to be running ok, should settle down soon
For those of you that have found us in the Reddit 3rd party exodus: welcome!

Spent quite a bit of the morning working on my lemmy instance, had to send a bunch of verification emails manually lol
Definitely been an influx of new users over the last 24 hours
Hi Tom, I tried to join feddit UK however I got an error “email fails” when I tried to register. Now when I try to sign in it says “email not verified” - account name is “ToastedYoyo”
Any chance you can help?
Hey yeh today has been wild there’s been a lot of signups and I’ve hit the rate limit for my email relay provider.
I’ve been sending out manual verification emails so will send one to you now
Hey Tom, sorry to jump on this one too, but I couldn’t work out how to private message you from this instance account. I’m having the same issue; Email verification never materialised and I can’t login without one. Guessing it’s also likely due to having hit your email limit?
Tired today after a returning from a long trip and immediately having to replace my dead home networking equipment as apparently the telephone pole outside my house was struck by lightning while I was away.
My getting old moan is that my hands barely function when I wake. I used to think it was because I lie on them, but apparently it’s a form of arthritis. No doubt brought on my 30 years of work in videogames development. Luckily my SO has brought me a cup of tea to wrap my creaking hands around to warm them up and get them moving again.
On holiday in Marsden. Arrived Friday to endless rain, which continued through to this morning. Attempted a hike up Pule Hill but the big factor was too much. Went for a waltz along canal instead. Weather perked up so we had a scramble around Buckstone Edge. Incredibly windy day for landscape photography, but fun nevertheless!
*bog factor
Finally got to the end of the work week. Taking the kids out to family tomorrow and hopefully I’ll get some me time in the evenings before Tuesday comes back around.
Just discovered Lemmy because of Sync closing down (Though I’ve been a fan since the Hawkwind days) Is there anywhere I can get an ELI5 for this Fediverse thingy? I see there’s a UK-centric Feddit but I can’t get my head round how they’re connected
Here ya go Lemmy World
Recovering from seeing Guns N’ Roses in Hyde Park, very pleased that I’ve ticked off another one from my gig bucket list!
Wasn’t it a good gig? Pretenders and The Darkness were on awesome form, too
Spent the first couple hours of the day doing tech support for all our confused new Lemmings, as is my duty as an old lady of…checks notes…26 days experience.
We’re heading out for a bit of a hike and picnic in a bit which sounds lovely but in reality will probably be cut short due to wasps. Then back home for more tech support, some game dev of course (navmeshes in Godot you will not defeat me!) and then we’re watching Reign of Fire tonight which I am unreasonably excited for! 😅
The For your reconsideration review of Reign of Fire is very funny
This better not be about to imply it’s anything less than a total 100% banger of a film from beginning to end…
How was it?
It was a total 100% banger of a film from beginning to end, of course.
Awesome, I’ll have to watch it
