If you’re trying to find work if the remote gig fails, good friggin luck

Gotta have a place to leave lists of their IRC servers

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.
