  • I can only say that this really happened to my brother.

    Did you know that ivermectin is mainly a product for humans, and received the nobel prize in 2015? it’s not as bad as we were told during covid. Also, Merck sponsored mectizan for human use to African countries since 1987(see mectizan.org). Too bad though that the human product was banned in the US, and because of that people went as far as taking the animal grade stuff.

    What strikes me… They had zero evidence of harm for use of human-grade ivermectin with covid, but they banned it. But they also had zero evidence of paracetamols effect on covid, but they adviced it for treatment.



  • indeed. not horsepaste, just the pills for human use.

    My brother had 10 days covid and was bedridden. i called him, and i was dumbfounded that he was so sick for that long and thinking he would recover without any intervention. his judgment was clearly impaired… His test came back positive the 11th day. we arranged a knowledgeable GP. they subscribed ivermectin(against virus) and antibiotics(against pneumonia). The 12th day at evening(as soon as he had the medicines) he began his regimen. within 4 days he was back on his feet.

    Fyi: those pills have been shipped to Africa at almost no costs since 1987 to fight riverblindness. You can read company’s history here: https://mectizan.org/














  • Hi. thanks.

    i logged in and found the port number in the /etc/sites/sites_enabled/<domain>.conf

    i did the merge again, and via domain and the local port i get the following:

    i logged into portainer and found this message many times for <domain>_lemmy-ui_1:

    API error: FetchError: request to http://lemmy:8536/api/v3/site? failed, reason: getaddrinfo EAI_AGAIN lemmy
    

    in <domain>_lemmy_1 it says this many times:

    thread 'main' panicked at 'Failed to load settings file, see documentation (https://join-lemmy.org/docs/en/administration/configuration.html): LemmyError { message: None, inner: "unknown field `use_tls`, expected one of `smtp_server`, `smtp_login`, `smtp_password`, `smtp_from_address`, `tls_type`" near 40:12, context: SpanTrace [] }', crates/utils/src/settings/mod.rs:20:20
    note: run with `RUST_BACKTRACE=1` environment variable to display a backtrace
    

    mm… this use_tls field 🤔…

    On the ansible machine, i have this use_tls in the email section in inventory/host_vars/<domain>/config.hjson. i’ll check if that field is still allowed

    in the defaults.hjson (mentioned in repy below), the use_tls isn’t mentioned, so i removed that keyword, and Lemmy version 0.18 is up🙌











  • Nowadays doesn’t even make any sense to use servers. … Why not create something better?

    i think you might underestimate the problem.

    Jami.net (a decentralized messaging app) works p2p. it uses a torrent-like distributed-hashmap to locate the peers at any moment. (The main usability issue for nontechnical users, is that devices on an internal ip address aren’t addressable from outside. This requires (a single point of failure and privacy concern), a turn-server)

    They started to incorporate Git for merging chats for the reason that any of set of peers (of a group chat) can be out of reach of another set of peers, i.e. the chat continues on different branches and needs to be merged again later.(this happens in the clients-app, because there is no central server). Jami is aiming at double-digit group sizes… That’s not nearly the size of what Lemmy is handling.
