The rich at this rate

Bit of a blind spot there

When Musk gets kicked out of art school, we'd better be ready

Typically people will prefer the option that gives them a $50 water bill over a $200 one.

This one is so reposted in my Star Trek groups that they ban you if you post it. Just a heads up if you're just now getting into Star Trek stuff...

Shut up and take my gold.

Wait.

Gravity Falls?

One. One nuke could potentially disrupt it...but it's not really advised for a few reasons:

• If the conditions are still there that built up the storm, you've basically just nuked some wet air - if the pressure gradient remains and the waters are still warm, it very much could simply reform immediately
• Dumping large amounts of energy into an active system might just turn it a different direction, unpredictably; you might steer a storm right into Miami that was just going to hit some empty marshes
• Dumping large amounts of radioactive materials into a storm heading towards you might just end up making a giant somewhat radioactive hurricane, which is not great
• Puerto Rico does not appreciate you dropping nukes just offshore

The nice things about the Federated universe is that, yes, you can bulk create user accounts on your own instance - and that server can then be defederated by other servers when it becomes obvious that it's going to create problems.

It's not a perfect fix and as this post demonstrated, is only really effective after a problem has been identified. At least in terms of vote manipulation from across servers, it could act if it, say, detects that 99% of new upvotes are coming from a server created yesterday with 1 post, it could at least flag it for a human to review.

I'm just excited to be back in the Wild West again -- all of the big players had bumps, at least this one is working to fix them.

Unrelated but someone needs to port Bobby B bot over here
