"The Third Principle of Sentient life is the capacity for self-sacrifice, the conscious ability to override evolution and self-preservation for a cause, a friend, a loved one."

I always wondered what the other principles of sentient life were.

@ChrisReimer Why not? I had leftover pizza for lunch. Had to work late yesterday so I couldn't cook.

@Richard_ermen I must be following the wrong people, I haven't seen a single dick pic yet....

@Frans I saw a posse of librarians go by yesterday, they shushed me so hard I can still barely speak above a whisper....

@blurredweasel "Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed" - President Dwight D. Eisenhower.

Republicans used to be different.

Fortunately for us, I am not the only person on the internet to imagine the idea of teacup dinosaurs.

@joshmillard Problem is that due to federation I think it'd be possible to establish a community of trolls who can still be jackasses to everyone else.

@levans For that matter, who are the admins and can we message them? Is admin@octodon.social an account that exists and they check?

@levans Yeah, images foul up the calculations.

I suppose, since it's all open source, we could dig into the code and see if there's any guestimates there.

Or, we could ask the folks running octodon if they'd tell us what their server specs are and how much space is already used.

How about it admins? What's the setup like on octodon.social?

@levans If we assume all toots are 500 bytes, plus a few bytes for backend stuff, we can just round it to 1kb per toot.

That's 1,000 toots per MB.

A one TB drive would, therefore, have enough space for a database of around one billion toots (ignoring ^10 vs ^2).

So probably a long time even on a tiny little server.

@groofay I think we can count on that statement being true for the next four years.

Is an Octodon what Sleipnir would have been had the Norse warriors existed a few tens of thousands of years earlier and used tamed Mammoths as mounts?

Cuz I can totally see Odin riding an eight legged mastodon into battle, Gungnir gleaming in his hand as his Valkyries ride flying mammoths to retrieve the souls of dead cave man type Norse warriors.

@fobo I think so, nice harmony, good old school metal tune going, just all around great. And the Ye Olde Silent Movie acting in the video is fun too.

Plus, I think Papa's third incarnation is is best looking, I mean the first was ok too, but the third is clearly superior.

@pts Naah, stick with being internet famous as your source of self worth.

Ghost: Year Zero is considered the best Ghost intro, but I prefer Square Hammer. youtube.com/watch?v=_Mbxe33BYW

@pzmyers As far as metal goes I really can recommend Ghost. Solid old school style metal, none of that modern GWAR screaming wordlessly into the mic stuff.

And, as a bonus, the band is fronted by a dude in a Satanic Pope costume, which is always fun for grins and giggles. It's explicitly "Satanic" music.

@bradlibum Do you know what bothers me? Windows updates as of Win 10. I mean, I get that some people don't reboot for far, far, too long, but Win 10 went way to aggressive in forcing reboots.
