@hansw@mastodon.social No it isnt at all, but its actually a common practice in docker containers to pick unusual root directories for volumes that is intended to be mounted into the container.

@hansw@mastodon.social indeed!

@hansw@mastodon.social they seem to run it in /data/db not the usual /var/log/mongodb.. probably runs as root like most containers tend to.

@rodolpho Did you look with their plugins. There are a **lot** of plugins. I am using like 30 of them at my sight.

@sgryphon while the point being asserted I would think should be common sense, this is very well done at proving the point anyway. Love this sort of stuff, debunking everyday myths with good experimentation.

@rodolpho I tried media goblin, didn't much like it and it doesnt use activitypub for federation so its federation capabilities are effectively nil.

Any particular reason you picked it? I tried about half a dozen different server software before I finally picked the one I use ( https://photo.jeffreyfreeman.me ). When i setup the server PixelFed wasnt really usable at the time, but I might give it another go now that it has matured a bit...

@hansw@mastodon.social Just made double sure, went in and created the file just to get rid of the warning... Didnt change anything though other than get rid of the warning :(

Thanks for putting eyes on this at least.

@hansw@mastodon.social Hmmm thanks, let me double check the docker image, I think so

How is it even possible I stumbled across the bug.. The version is 4.4.1 right now and the bug has been in there for all of 4.*. Plus the bug seems to happen on every system I've tried it. What baffles me is that I'm not even doing anything weird, this is literally the very first step you do when setting up a mongo cluster... so how.. HOW am I the one catching this?

@Demosthenes

Nah, just the days where I was migrating servers so the bots were down for a bit.

@users

@snder Indeed, thanks..

@snder Hey what was the name of that federated chat service you use? I am testing out options (right now i have a mattermost instance up im looking at since it was already bundled with gitlab).

Has anyone here ever heard of or used scuttlebutt? Apparently its a decentralized social media network, in that sense it is like the fediverse. but it uses a totally different approach (gossip network).

I'm just now hearing about it and looking it up.

Sure, obviously thats what I figured you meant.. but im still not sure its saying anything useful when you really think about it.

I mean, sure, sex can have varying degrees of meaningfulness and that can often be a reflection of how closely connected you are with the person. I'm just not sure if thats really saying anything that wouldnt apply to any other activity.. consider if i reward it for something else.

"lets assume there are two kinds of conversation: One based purely on an interest in the subject, and another that grows organically on you through the development of an intimate relationship with another person"

The thing is, "sex" isnt the unique element here, the truth is, when you have a special and intimate bond with someone, even if there is no sexual or romantic element to it, then many activities can become quite special and go well beyond an ordinary friendship.

I do agree that sex adds an element of trust and relying on the other person for some element of safety, it puts you at risk of STDs for example. So there is at least some need for a level of intimacy that comes with trust if nothing else. but then again so does riding on the back seat of a motorcycle with someone.

Even the "One can't break such a relationship just like that".. i mean sure thats true, but again I dont think it has much to do with sex.. When you have a close meaningful relationship with someone sex has little to do with how easily you can break such a relationship. It should be unthinkable regardless of sex, if the relationship is truly meaningful anyway.

@fluffy

@josemanuel

But is sex just friendship taken to the extreme? You exclude one-night stands from that assertion. So clearly sex is sometimes less than friendship, and sometimes more than friendship. So is that really saying anything at all, its basically just saying "some of the people I have sex with are very close friends to me, some are not"

@fluffy

@olamundo

really should be the only goal.

@cy

@cy @olamundo Who said anything about being pressured to have sex being an issue?

The part I find counterproductive and even puzzling in terms of human nature, is that without an element of sex any such venture would seem insufficient to both you and the child.

My concern has more to do with the odditiy of seeing sex as a requirement for raising a child than any concern about pressuring two people to have sex if they happen to have a child. Typically people wouldnt respond by pressuring them to have sex at all, the response would be more like "Is it right to raise a child in a loveless marriage, your hurting the child staying with someone you dont love", implying romantic love. If anything they would be discouraging the relationship from continuing in that scenario rather than pressuring the people couple to have sex to legitimize it (which isnt how most people would approach it I dont think).

@fluffy I have a few people whom I'd be very happy to spend a lifetime with and have no sexual interest. Though to be fair the more I enjoy being around a person the more attractive they will look, so it might make sex less of a barrier. but it is hardly the central and defining quality of spending time with someone.
