We’re also reliant on water and are mostly made out of it. water is such a “universal solvent”, it’s quite OP. It dissolves so much, that we don’t even think about it
We’re death breathers, but also basically have acid blood like xenomorphs

- Comment on Instance admins, how much does it cost you to run your instance? How much does that represent per active user? 3 weeks ago:
Masto admin here. Small instance. 20ish users. costs me about 1€ per user.
Most of the costs comes from media cache storage, so it would scale nicely if I had more users, but I want to keep it small

- Comment on Kim Dotcom to be extradited from New Zealand to the US 1 month ago:
He and his lawyer started doing that in the late 90s. When the labels just started knowing what the heck this newfangled internet even is.
In den späten 90er Jahren, kurz nachdem er wegen Kreditkartenmissbrauch verhaftet worden war, wurden in Hackerkreisen Stimmen laut, dass Kimble auch seine Freunde an die Softwareindustrie gegen Entgelt ausgeliefert habe. Der damalige berüchtigte Schwarzkopierer-Jäger und Anwalt Günther Freiherr von Gravenreuth hat seinen eigenen Aussagen zufolge Kimble als sogenannten Testbesteller beschäftigt.
Just one of the articles that goes into this assholes history
Translation
In the late 1990s, shortly after he was arrested for credit card fraud, there were rumors in hacker circles that Kimble had also handed over his friends to the software industry for a fee. Günther Freiherr von Gravenreuth, the notorious pirate hunter and lawyer at the time, said he employed Kimble as a so-called test orderer
They mass-collected the connection data and started mass-sueing/extorting. Nobody else did on such a large scale at the time.
- Comment on Kim Dotcom to be extradited from New Zealand to the US 1 month ago:
from odd eccentric file sharing site founder
no. he basically started with credit card fraud and “sueing people who fileshare”. Together with a lawer he basically invented the practice of “see which IPs share copyrighted data, request the user data from the ISP and send out C&D extiotion letters to the ISP customers”
