Did you know?
Birmingham airport is a “silent airport”. That means, to cut down on noise pollution inside the terminals, the airport limits calls to only significant ones (eg final calls, emergencies).
This means that an actual airport has fewer departure announcements than the Fediverse.

There’s currently an incident involving some kind of Japanese skids who call themselves the “Kuroneko” organization.
They seem to be attempting to commit DDoS attacks on Misskey servers, constantly creating new accounts on compromised instances and spamming advertisements for their hacking services.
Admins who are federating with these compromised servers, while they might not get compromised themselves, may be affected by the sheer amount of traffic volume from their spam.
Admins are advised to #fediblock or temporarily stop sending requests to affected servers for now, if they don’t want to get secondhand DoS’d
IMO I never expected them to be Japanese out of all things, kinda funny. They also host VOICEROID and VOICEVOX TTS bots on their Discord apparently. Kinda a weird flex I guess.
But yeah, probably just a bunch of skids.

it is really fucking dumb to rely on cloud hosting providers with billing based on usage, especially egress traffic. don’t do that. i’ve seen several people get hit by hosting bills in the thousands of dollars.
