Secret Panel HERE 🥞 tapas.io/episode/2517814

So well put by George Monbiot. Applies to our tepid Labor government here in Australia too. People don’t want to be regarded only as economic units, and if you block leftist reform they reach for hard-right chaos.

"The democratic recession does not begin when a far-right party takes office. It begins when a centrist party crushes hope in democracy. When Keir Starmer’s government takes a chainsaw to people’s aspirations for a fairer, greener, kinder country, he cuts off not just faith in the Labour party but faith in politics itself. The almost inevitable result, as countries from the US to the Netherlands, Argentina to Austria, Italy to Sweden show, is to let the far right in."

So that $10B bailout for farmers.

Is it a payout for political support? Yeah. Bold move for an industry that talks so much about hard work & independence!

But it's also worse than that. This is a US food crisis in the making.

how much of this will go to small farmers though? It seems like $10B is not that much giving the scale of the industry and the number of big corporations involved.

@foaylward To be seen. The chatter I'm hearing is "Don't worry, this is just the first tranche, there'll be more!" The first Trump admin certainly had multiple multi-billion payoffs to farmers.

Also, fwiw, most small family farmers in the US are millionaires with above-average household income. Even if the whole $10B went to small family farms, it still wouldn't be poverty relief by a long shot ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Speaking of news, I've also been looking at formats of coverage.

I've ginned up a "newspaperified" view of CNN's lite headlines page, as described and screenshotted here:

toot.cat/@dredmorbius/11435606…

The backstory (as that toot notes) is:

CNN's lite.cnn.com presents 100 headlines, but without any story context or organisation of the headlines.
Context is available in the URLs themselves: subject/section, and date. That along with the headline lead to my first cut which simply organised the heads & links into sections, and sorted those by my own interest in them.
That also let me analyse the coverage to see how it breaks down.

Aggregating a bit, that is roughly:
- US (30.64%)
- World (19.73%)
- Business/Finance (14.55%)
- Science (8.36%)
- Trivia (sport, entertainment, style, etc.) (26.70%)

@Friendica Support

Hi there,
working on moving old friendica sites from a shared hosting to a VPS, I ran into the following problem I can't find a solution for. This actually happens with one 2021.04 instance but not with another (anymore), so I'm crosschecking all the settings but can't find how to solve this. Both sites were installed as 2012.04 from the start:

not working version wrote:

This is Friendica, version 2021.04 that is running at the web location sub.domain.com/var/www/subdomaincom. The database version is 1413/1413, the post update version is 1400/1400.

As visible in the screen, the site also displays the following path on top of the page, and of course calls that URL:
sub.domain.com/var/www/subdomaincom

Different intents to fix this by changing or deleting the following settings from the console didn't work out:

system.basepath => /var/www/domaincom
system.urlpath => /var/www/domaincom/

Even more astonishing, sending the following setting with the console:
/bin/console config system url https://sub.domain.com
.. the site is displayed and works as it should be for a few minutes, and than falls back into the wrong behavior, like if the worker changes something when ever the cron kicks in. In that time span I can log in and even go thru the admin settings but this setting is not available.

Intents to modify the following specifications in local.config.php didn't work out either:

'system.basepath' => '',
'url.basepath' => '',
'system.urlpath'=> '',

At least I figured out/ realized that url. and system. actually shouldn't be used at all as:

'config' => [
        ],
'system' => [
        ],

.. are actually "in charge" of defining that. So now I'm not sure either if those wrong lines somehow made it from local.config.php into the DB and are now part of the problem.

I found this conversation by @Hypolite Petovan on github:

Table config, cat = "system" AND key = "basepath"

and it actually looks like this is exactly te problem but I have no experience at all with mysql over CLI SSH and don't know what commands to use to delete the apparently wrong setting in the DB.

Screen of the front page showing the error

Is there a way to delete entries with bin/console?
I did manage to change some settings from there but couldn't find any hint how to "delete" an entry entirely from there:

/var/www/inversioncom/bin/console config -h

console config - Manage site configuration
Synopsis
bin/console config <category> <key> <value> [-h|--help|-?] [-v]

Couldn't find any relevant setting or hint in static/defaults.config.php searching for the term path.

I did (again) a diff check of the print of bin/console config of the two subdomains.

The domain that doesn't work still displays the setting;
config.system.basepath => /
.. and I have no idea how to delete/ erase the /

The subdomain that works has the following line that doesn't show up in the one that doesn't work:
system.urlpath => /var/www/sudbomain2/

@utopiArte Sorry, I was on mobile and couldn’t check but these keys should have been mentioned in this file, along their purpose.

system.basepath is the absolute file path where Friendica is installed, e.g. /var/www/subdomaincom in your case.

system.urlpath should only be used if Friendica is installed in a subfolder of the domain you’re using, and is relative to that domain. It doesn't seem to be relevant to you, so it should be blank.

system.url is the absolute URL where your Friendica node is accessible. It should consist in the protocol, the domain and the urlpath together. In your case it should be https://sub.domain.com/

system.php_path should be the absolue path to the PHP CLI executable. It should not point to PHP-FPM, which is used to process web requests.

It should not point to PHP-FPM

Changed this setting in the local.config.php to phpX.y. The sites are working like before.

I decided to copy/paste identically local.config.php of the site that does work to the one that doesn't, only changing the specific detail of DB and folder structure, and also made sure that the .conf files are alike.
Still having the same problem.

Compared the print of:
/var/www/subdomaincom/bin/console config
in the few minutes it is working correctly after sending:
/var/www/subdomaincom/bin/console config system url https://sub.domain.com
and when it doesn't work but the prints are identically.

The print right now for both sites show the following quite at the bottom of the print:

system.url => subX.domain.com
system.php_path => /usr/bin/phpX.y
system.urlp

system.php_path => /usr/bin/phpX.y
system.urlpath => /var/www/subXdomaincom/
system.ssl_policy => 1
system.basepath => /var/www/subXdomain/

The only difference between the two sites in the print is the following line quite at the top:
config.system.basepath => /
This line doesn't exist in the site that is working and I can't find a way to skip it or delete the /.
Meld (the diff program) shows a dot in front of the the slash ./, the simple text editor Kate doesn't.

Meld actually also shows the [enter] signs in the same way, a little bit less colored, in lines that have them, like it shows the dot.
🤷‍♂️

As of now local.config.php does define system.urlpath, but as the site that works uses the line I left it for now.

@utopiArte So, forget about system.urlpath, it isn't used in any way by Friendica anymore, so value or not will not change your predicament.

However, the system.url should include the scheme. It is the most important config values to determine the base URL of your Friendica install.

What do you mean by "works for a few minutes"? How many pages correctly show in the mean time? What happens when the few minutes have elapsed?

The site works correctly for several minutes.
I can log in.
All pages show correctly, including admin pages.
Once it falls back to redirecting to:
sub.domain.com/var/www/subdomain/
.. I have to execute again:
/var/www/subdomaincom/bin/console config system url https://sub.domain.com
.. the console prints (as always):
system.url <= https://inversion.tupambae.com
and I can use the site again for several minutes before it falls back to the wrong behavior.

@Hypolite Petovan

After a break I started to check out everything again and did several tests.
I changed the order of the lines in local.config.php and managed to get the exact same lines and order in the bin/console prints of both sites.
The problem stayed.
Than I checked example_local.config.php to compare and found that actually any of the lines figure there, so I deleted them all together.
Right now local.config.php looks like this:

        'config' => [
                'admin_email' => 'anyname@subdomain.com',
                'sitename' => 'sitename',
                'register_policy' => \Friendica\Module\Register::CLOSED,
                'register_text' => '',
        ],

        'system' => [
                'ssl_policy' => 1,
                'default_timezone' => 'UTC',
                'language' => 'es',
        ],

The site still behaves the same way. At f

@Hypolite Petovan

        'config' => [
                'admin_email' => 'anyname@subdomain.com',

                'register_text' => '',
        ],

        'system' => [
                'ssl_policy' => 1,
                'default_timezone' => 'UTC',
                'language' => 'es',
        ],

The site still behaves the same way. At first it loads correctly, and quite fast, after some minutes it starts taking lot's of time and ends up like in the screen of the initial post.

Now the bin/console config print shows only the following two specific lines related to the whole path issue, all the other references mentioned above are gone.
I have no idea how to delete the remaining references. Those lines have to figure somewhere in the DB I guess, but again, no idea what lines to execute to display them or delete them:
config.system.basepath => /
system.basepath => /var/www/subdomain

@utopiArte Once you set a config value using the console, changing the value in the config file won't help as the console stores the value in the DB and it has precedence over the files.

No matter how you did it, the important part is that system.basepath must be set to the install folder, and system.url must be set to the full URL. You can verify what the current value used by Friendica for either config keys is using the console.

I've browsed https://inversion.tupambae.com and when the style is missing, the first line shows inversion.tupambae.com/var/www/inversioncom even though it should show https://inversion.tupambae.com. This is governed by the system.url config key.

To me it "feels" that /var/www/subdomaincom is added by some mecanism to sub.domain.com. In particular because when setting specifically with the console command /var/www/subdomaincom/bin/console config system url -> https://sub.domain.com it works for some minutes.

As last intent I tried to use the following commands to reset the two mentioned settings but the behaviour ist still the same:

/var/www/subdomaincom/bin/console config system basepath /var/www/subdomaincom/

@Hypolite Petovan

No I can't.
There is no change at all in the results of the bin/console config output (print).
Actually even the settings send and "officially" accepted by the system do not show up in the print.

Latest thing I tried, totally feed up, was to send the commands several times and also making sure they end with a slash.

So I send:
/var/www/subdomaincom/bin/console config system url https://sub.domain.com/
system.url <= inversion.tupambae.com/
/var/www/subdomaincom/bin/console config system basepath /var/www/subdomaincom/
system.basepath <= /var/www/inversioncom/
/var/www/subdomaincom/bin/console config system url https://sub.domain.com/
system.url <= inversion.tupambae.com/
/var/www/subdomaincom/bin/console config system basepath /var/www/subdomaincom/
system.basepath <= /var/www/inversioncom/

And right now it looks like it sticked, for now the site remains operative!
🙄

For what it's worth, I found friendica to be unfriendly to non-root URLs, that is to say URLs that aren't at /, so I setup a subdomain specifically for friendica, friendica.eskimo.com/. You may wish to give that a try. The machine domain does not need to be this, you can do it by configuring DNS to point to the base IP of the machine and then configuring a subdomain in Apache or Nginx as a virtual host.

Also, this is a btop from an 18 core machine with 256GB of RAM with the major load being friendica, a secondary load is hubzilla, mastodon, and miskey, but friendica represents more load than the latter three combined, but it also gets more traffic than the latter three combined. But what I am getting at here, you may want to consider dedicating a physical server. I'll grant you it's busier than usual as we've just returned the server to service after three months of downtime, 7 motherbords, three power supplies, and two CPU's later.

It's no coincidence that alt-right people have taken up AI generated artwork so intensely. It allows bypassing all the ethics and care of typically left-leaning artists. To show the ability to wield aesthetics without the social values tied to those aesthetics is a power move.

This is well covered in "AI: The New Aesthetics of Fascism" newsocialist.org.uk/transmissi…

AI: The New Aesthetics of Fascism

It's embarrassing, destructive, and looks like shit: AI-generated art is the perfect aesthetic form for the far right.

OpenAI is using Studio Ghibli-style memes as an ad hoc promotional campaign for its new image generator—despite Ghibli founder Hayao Miyazaki's famous hatred of AI. Sam Altman even made his X avatar a 'Ghiblified' portrait.

Disgracing Miyazaki is part of the point: It's more proof to the industry's biggest boosters that they have won—that they're free to use, appropriate, and commoditize art however they see fit.
