Just checked all the 13 of 220 folders that were created as belonging to user and group root and that I consider shouldn't exist as owned by root i the folder /smarty3.
In general terms speaking I couldn't find a common property.
They refer to posts or replies by three different users.
Most refer to one specific post.
Two create a page:
Not Found
The requested item doesn't exist or has been deleted.
Request: XYZ
All were created with the theme VIER.
root? It should run as www-data. Same question if you're using the daemon.
So this is a "tricky" one for me as I have no idea what or how to do this.
In the helpers page:
tupambae.org/help/Install#cron…
it only states:
helpers page wrote:
cron job for worker
If you are using a Linux server, run "crontab -e" and add a line like the one shown, substituting for your unique paths and settings:
I did my installation with the help of @hankg's tutorial:
nequalsonelifestyle.com/2022/0…
ubuntu install tutorial wrote:
First log into the server through SSH using your root@<domain> user. Then execute the crontab edit command:
sudo crontab -e
How do I set this so "It should run as www-data."
??
Something like this?
# For more information see the manual pages of crontab(5) and cron(8)
#
# m h dom mon dow command*/5 * * * * cd /var/www/html; su -u friendica /usr/bin/php bin/worker.php
As off now it was running like this:*/5 * * * * cd /var/www/html; /usr/bin/php bin/worker.php
Your suggestion:php command with su -u friendica*/5 * * * * cd /var/www/html; su -u friendica /usr/bin/php bin/worker.php
What we didn't actually clarified is what friendica stands for.
Like to say, is it a "place holder", a variable for a user or application name?
Is "friendica" defined as such in worker.php?
Or would it actually be www-data?
friendica is the name of my local node web server user. You should be writing www-data instead.
Well, this;*/5 * * * * cd /var/www/html; su -u www-data /usr/bin/php bin/worker.php
.. didn't work out.
Looks like cron job didn't execute at all.
The last worker execution was on 2023-12-22 16:25:28 UTC. This is older than one hour. Please check your crontab settings.
Still monitoring this and wondering if some setting and changes while moving the server has to do with this.
Right now there are folder structures like the mentioned created and visible in /smarty3 and /storage.
Of the two folders that have root as owner in the /smarty3 folder, there is one subfolder that exists in the /storage folder and one that doesn't.
The one that does exist in /storage and /smarty3 has the same creation date (Nov 28 2023).
It actually points right now to this very answer above:
/display/0ac89072-1165-95dc-31ec-a8a342054692
That folder contains an completely unrelated unknown avatar.
While trying to nano the file contained in the other folder right now the following message came up:
"File root is being edited by root (with nano 6.2, PID 3334); open anyway?"
Opening anyway gave an empty nano editor with something like 1/7.
Trying to leave with [ctrl-X] and [N] wasrejected and an empty nano editor with 1/2 showed up on top.
Closed the SSH window o escape this.
utterly strange
I start getting the feeling that the admin profile has or had the ability to publish as root.
There is specifically one post right now that is public where this profile commented on. That post shows up on the profile page but when this profile tries to open it or even open a notification of an answer on that post done by the admin profile a blank page get's displayed. Occasionally with a code error, occasionally with nothing at all.
This is the link of the latest notification that display a blank page:

@Muse Oh, no apologies necessary! I do the same thing, but perhaps for slightly different reasons.
Basically, if I'm not sure if someone is being earnest or making a joke, I err on the side of assuming earnestness. It just seems ... I dunno ... erring in that direction seems more respectful overall and I feel like it's less likely to become awkward for all involved.
You know every time we compare ourselves to others, it's an act of violence to self. It's a form of self-harm.
Not only that, it's disrespectful to your own unique superpowers. There is something intrinsic to your uniqueness. The thing that makes you You that no other person on this Earth can replicate.
Every time you commit this act of violence, you betray your personal experience, your starting place, the things you've overcome, your setbacks, your wins, and triumphs. Those little daily struggles only You know about.
I don't mean to be forceful, or maybe I do... but don't do that. Because every time you do, those scars cut deep, they penetrate the surface, and you run the risk of bleeding out. Trust me. I know.

Australia's Clive Palmer is a real piece of work.
Who Knew Queensland's richest man is a foreign investor
The Australia Institute is among NGOs and academics that for years have raised the risks of including these “Investor-State Dispute Settlement” or ISDS provisions in trade agreements.
They let foreign investors sue under a secretive international arbitration process if a government passes a law or makes a decision that harms an investor’s future profits – even if the government is acting on environmental or other public interest grounds.
The potential to undermine efforts to combat climate change is enormous.

Clive Palmer's controversial legal strategies challenge Australia's trade agreements and environmental laws, and have profound implications for global climate action, writes Stephen Long.Chris Redman (The Australia Institute)

About 250M years ago, 90% of species on Earth died during the Permian extinction. All of that loss created a lot of vacant niches to fill. And not long after, the first mammals, our ancestors, appeared.
Life on this pale blue dot will continue to be resilient - whether or not we’re part of it. #Thanksgiving #science #history
we probly need something LIKE religion to help us remember to pay attention to that miracle. i think most of us don't take so much opportunity to sit back from the slog of life to pay attention to such miracles.
i would call science (a very organized social process) a tradition similar to religion in this respect.
religion does not need a god nor supernatural. just practices in the attention on what life IS.

Yeah, Mastodon’s Got A Reply Guy Problem
The “reply guy,” the internet-native take on Florida Man, has started to cause problems in the fediverse, and it comes down to ideology.Tedium: The Dull Side of the Internet.
Curious to hear if others on here are experiencing what’s described in this piece. I enjoy most of the replies I get on here (though I never have time to respond to most of them, I like reading them)
I do think Mastodon could use more safety/audience limiting tools though, like what Ernie describes. Esp for larger-ish accounts on here who get a lot of replies, it would be nice to limit conversations on some posts. I would also love a real DM inbox on Mastodon! but that might be a pipe dream 😅
In case you haven't seen, we're experimenting with something in this area:

Improving the quality of conversations on Mastodon
In our most recent Mastodon for Android release, we’re testing a new feature aimed to curb unneccesary negativity that comes from being on the Internet.Mastodon Blog
this solution sounds convoluted. if it's worse here than other places, let's understand why that is first. let's group boosts and likes first. and let's start doing things the platforms can't. why can't we handle replies like lemmy/kbin do? reddit has the best mechanism for managing comments ever devised. instead of different apps to replicate different platforms, we can take the best from each an build lots of versions of Mastodon instead that try them out.
@Gargron
"If they [convo improvement features] prove successful, we’ll be bringing them to the experience on the web as well."
As a middling new presence, I'm hoping the data supports keeping the first feature (Reply thoughtfully) but not the second (Hey, you're replying to an older post).
I was reminded once not to tag you into a thread, which was annoying but valid. But if I'm replying to an old post, its because I deliberately dug it up. So I don't need that extra step.
@Gargron
One mistake I sometimes do is reply to a post in a thread, without realizing there's more posts in the thread, some of which already made the same point I was writing.
An interstitial alert that there's more to read is perhaps too clumsy, but some kind of improved visual feedback that I'm in the middle of a discussion thread, not at the end, would be welcome.
I didn't expect to like this idea, but I do. I hope it comes to the clients I use.
If you really want to move the needle, make the reply button work differently when one is replying to a boosted toot: if my buddy Alice boosts a toot by Ben, and I hit reply from my stream where I see that it's an Alice-boosted toot, that reply should go to Alice, not Ben. I don't know who Ben is. Ben doesn't know who I am. Why should I be having a conversation with Ben, a complete stranger, when it was my friend Alice who thought whatever he wrote was interesting enough to promote to her stream? It's my friend Alice I should be having that conversation with.
Ben didn't start a conversation with me or ask my opinion. Alice, however, very much did something to start a conversation with me: by boosting Ben's toot she said to me, and all her other her followers, hey, all, check out this thing Ben wrote.
@Gargron
This proposal recalls a feature from Eudora (early-2000’s email MUI). The developers added a new dictionary which used the Bayesian message filter to gauge the “temperature” of a message. If it scored as too hot, the sender was shown a dialogue encouraging them to delay sending the message, giving them time to cool off and edit it.
We never had a chance to study how effective it was. I still think it’s interesting for its simplicity.
Unfortunately we'll never get any more of their music, but I'm very appreciative of the great vibes we did get from bossFYTE.
