I've been really getting a kick out of seeing these old games getting the raytracing treatment.

A government that doesn't respect the rule of law will find ways to make their will work.
Oh look, an ad for my book. Well, guess the CRTC can send thugs in to kick my servers off the wall.

1. You want us to support current thing.
2. You say everything is political.
3. You say that because everything is political, to not enthusiastically support the current thing is to oppose, because "you're either with us or you're with the terrorists"
4. Therefore we are npcs because your philosophy tells us we oppose everything by default because we don't automatically agree with current thing.
Checks out.

This is the Trudeau government. They don't respect human rights, and they will incorrectly use any law that comes even close to silence any dissent.
Besides, I'm not using facebook or twitter. I'm using my own website, hosted on my own hardware. Why should the CRTC get any say in what I have on my own website or the order I display it in? How is that not interfering with my right to speak, or my right to listen to my users?

There are multiple pieces of legislation. Bill C11 is an internet censorship bill that is different than Bill C13 the "paying for links" bill.
Handing control of censoring the Internet to the CRTC is effectively nationalizing the Internet, bringing it under direct control of the federal government.
I'm not sure if I'll be continued to be "allowed" to run any of my websites under this new nationalized Internet.

There is a big difference between self-hosting and hosting elsewhere: You are in full control. If you want to defederate from someone, go ahead. If you want to federate with them, go ahead. If you want to have a color scheme nobody else has, go ahead. If you want special features, your own special emoji, special rewrite policies, or whatever else you want, it's all within your power.
Once you start following people on other servers, soon it doesn't matter that you're not on the same server because you get a fantastic feed with just a few hundred active follows.

The Liberals nationalizing the Internet the way they are is so fundamentally morally wrong that the fact it's all breezing through without any problems is like everyone's worst nightmares made manifest.

The idea that something so obvious would take so long to determine is a damning indictment of the social sciences.
Too busy proving what they believe instead of measuring what is true.

Most people don't realize what the cloud actually is, so this diagram helps explain exactly how it works.
Lots of free software people forget this freedom. It doesn't matter what someone else is doing, worry about yourself.
Teaching people to install an apk seems a lot simpler than getting them to fully switch ecosystems.
Some additional info for anyone who is dumb like me and wants to do this:
To do this, I first had to install pg_repack using the postgresql repo:
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Apt
Then I had to follow these instructions, including adding the extension to any of the databases I wanted to repack:
https://dbsguru.com/install-and-configure-pg_repack-in-postgresql/
I ended up just running pg_repack -a as the postgres user.
I chose to run it on my peertube and pleroma databases. Peertube was done in just a few minutes.
Note that it's a pretty serious operation. It seemed to take about 40 minutes on my relatively trivial instance, and it pegged an entire core at 100% the whole time, though the sites kept running while the operation occurred. Even with an SSD, I ended up with pretty high IOWait times during the repack because it was moving a lot of data around.
It seems to have brought my peak loads down quite a bit. The Pleroma task still can take up a whole lot of cpu power when there's lots of stuff going on, but the postgresql tasks basically idle now whereas they were significant beforehand.

Can you believe these racist conspiracy theorists in (checks card) the major airlines?
