Absolutely cursed doorbell

@peek_pdx no i will not be explaining further

[sarah @foophoof]

@peek_pdx ah yes, my answers to the questions at the gender clinic

[sarah @foophoof]

tfw you’ve primarily been talking to someone in twitter dms for years and move to signal and suddenly you have fancy things like replying to a particular message

[sarah @foophoof]

@theyfemme I guess it can be hard if you don’t actually respect user privacy and want to find a way to comply with GDPR while also fundamentally not wanting to

[sarah @foophoof]

@CaseyExplosion no, a turkey is not a starch…i think

[sarah @foophoof]

@xssfox oh my god i had completely forgotten about this game and seeing those sprites instantly transported me back to like 1999 or something

[sarah @foophoof]

It don’t think it will happen but I would be lying if the thoughts of posting tits on main hadn’t crossed my mind in the past 48 hours or so ^^’

I've seen a lot of people asking "why does everyone think Twitter is doomed?"

As an SRE and sysadmin with 10+ years of industry experience, I wanted to write up a few scenarios that are real threats to the integrity of the bird site over the coming weeks.

[Read Raising Expectations (and Raising Hell) @JPHilllllll]

Okay all of your final tweets made me finally realize why I love Twitter so much. It's kinda serious but bear with me for a sec. It's these two ideas that Samuel Delany calls contact vs. networking. I'll try to explain it in a quick thread.

[sarah @foophoof]

I’ve always associated this with just the noises that hard drives make but it always makes me wonder.

[sarah @foophoof]

Okay so while this site still works, I just realised there’s audio tweets so I can ask this:

These kind of hard drive sounds: Normal, or “probably replace your drive”?

The apocalypse wasn't as bad as you expected—blankets remained soft, and there were plenty of them; fire remained warm, and there was plenty of it; and more than anything, hiding from the vast monsters reminded you of childhood

[sarah @foophoof]

So I feel like it's less "this site might disappear any moment" panic posting and more "it might not be possible to tweet for a while, let me post contact details while I still can" panic posting.

[sarah @foophoof]

My suspicion is that Twitter won't just go poof and disappear into a puff of smoke. My guess is more that we're gonna have various outages, probably long ones as a good chunk of institutional knowledge is gone.

[sarah @foophoof]

Whatever is left after that is probably going to feel like a bit of a ghost town. Some people will probably still remain here, posting, but it'll probably be a shadow of its former self?
