When upgrading #Mastodon #Docker to version 4.3.0, you may need to run bin/rails db:encryption:init to generate new secrets and assign the environment variables:

ACTIVE_RECORD_ENCRYPTION_DETERMINISTIC_KEY
ACTIVE_RECORD_ENCRYPTION_KEY_DERIVATION_SALT
ACTIVE_RECORD_ENCRYPTION_PRIMARY_KEY

If you're a Docker user, navigate to the Mastodon directory with `cd /app/www`, run `bin/rails db:encryption:init` to generate the required variables, and then add them to your Docker configuration. #update

Also whoever came up with the "tentative" option in #Outlook? Straight to jail. 😤

It's giving "I might come to your meeting, but I want to keep my options open in case a cooler meeting comes by." 😒

I tend to use it more as "there's a chance I'll be out of the office at that time, but if I'm still around I'll be there."

En fait, son papa est Patrick Sarrazin, chef d'état-major de la direction des renseignements à la préfecture de police (ex-RG). C'est ce qui s'appelle chercher l'info à la source... Curieusement, le fiston signe ses articles du nom de sa maman. Il officie aussi sur M6 lalettre.fr/fr/medias_audiovis…
