It's time for another question thread!

The rules:

- You may ask any dev-related question you have in a comment. (It doesn't even need to be about Dreamwidth, although if it involves a language/library/framework/database Dreamwidth doesn't use, you will probably get answers pointing that out and suggesting a better place to ask.)
- You may also answer any question, using the guidelines given in To Answer, Or Not To Answer and in this comment thread.

DW is seeing some issues due to today's Amazon outage. For right now it looks like the site is loading, but it may be slow. Some of our processes like notifications and journal search don't appear to be running and can't be started due to rate limiting or capacity issues. DW could go down later if Amazon isn't able to improve things soon, but our services should return to normal when Amazon has cleared up the outage.

Edit: all services are running as of 16:12 CDT, but there is definitely still a backlog of notifications to get through.

Edit 2: and at 18:20 CDT everything's been running normally for about the last hour.

Hello! If anyone is interested in making shrines (shrines as in fan websites), I'd like to promote an event a friend is running: the Ghost of You Shrine Challenge. The goal is to create shrines to the challenge prompt “Ghost of You”, however you might interpret it. The event runs from 1 October 2025 to 31 January 2026 for a total of four months.

More information and sign-up form on the event website.

If you've never made a shrine before (especially in this sense of an individual website for a subject), feel free to check out makeashrine for discussion with other webmasters in this sphere.

(Not sure what to tag this, and hopefully it's okay to promote other stuff here - please let me know if not!)

The YouTube Channel Parkrose Permaculture is doing a video series on Nonviolent Resistance.

With military invading our cities, I think this is very helpful knowledge to have. It comes from the information this person obtained from attending a Nonviolent Resistance Bootcamp. They live in Portland, Oregon, one of the places troops have been sent in a show of force against non-violent citizens exercising their Constitutional Rights, so they are a good source of factual information for what's really going on there, as well. They are calm, rational, hopeful and insightful and I've found their videos very helpful in putting things in perspective when I'm starting to freak out. They aren't pandering to sensationalism the way many channels do. I highly recommend all their videos.

Indeed do many things come to pass
