@Tattooed_mummy And the high priests dance around the pyramid in headdresses made of shards of circuit boards and old printer ribbons.

@Tattooed_mummy its tru

@Tattooed_mummy plenty of lithium to navigate the afterlife without recharging

@Tattooed_mummy 🤣

@Tattooed_mummy
Seems only right.

@Tattooed_mummy Well yeah of course they are! *puts pickaxe and wire cutters on shopping list*

@Tattooed_mummy I think you’re describing the bird app… and they need to move on and redirect their followers before it’s a sinkhole…

@Tattooed_mummy been here 15 mins: what’s an ‘instance’?!

@Tattooed_mummy What happens to our internal organs?

@Tattooed_mummy tough but fair.

@Tattooed_mummy (still clicks accept on license agreement)

@Tattooed_mummy "Choose carefully"

@Tattooed_mummy Surely we all have to lay down to die in a cave somewhere, or on the Siberian tundra?

@Tattooed_mummy that's how I lost my brother ;(

@Tattooed_mummy just like I planned it

@Tattooed_mummy I mean, that's probably what's going to end up happening to me anyway, sooooo 🤷‍♂️

@Tattooed_mummy Wow, not even a blanket to keep warm?

@Tattooed_mummy Then @Gargron weighs your heart against a feather to decide if you get to reunite with your ancestors in the afterlife.

@Tattooed_mummy well that escalated quickly 😂😂😂

@Tattooed_mummy The top of the sarcophagus is traditionally made of Nokias to avoid the dead from being able to break free from their confines should they rise. Frankly, it's the best zombie outbreak prevention method we've seen.

It's traditional to have a few months notice so that you have the time to move to another instance well before it goes down.

@Tattooed_mummy Fair enough

@Tattooed_mummy Ah, good to see that we’re returning to the olde ways…

@Tattooed_mummy 💀

@Tattooed_mummy this is why I only use my deaktop

@Tattooed_mummy I Eek! I hope the you can keep the toot.community afloat under the influx of new users, @jorijn!

@Tattooed_mummy There is one dot matrix printer at the entrance that just prints over and over, “This place is not a place of honor... no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here... nothing valued is here…”

@Tattooed_mummy what is an “instance.”?

@Tattooed_mummy
You would hope the admin is able to give priorwarning.

@Tattooed_mummy I am sending my shabti figurines to serve this ziggurat of goods.

@jerry So, what is our life expectancy?

@Tattooed_mummy
That's almost correct. Here's film of the actual tradition.

@Tattooed_mummy I hope they give us a timely heads-up so that we can jump ship (migrate to another server) before it happens 😀

@Tattooed_mummy Well, that doesn’t sound too bad.

@Tattooed_mummy This happened to me and I am now a ghost, haunting another instance

@Tattooed_mummy they've loosened that up a bit then. Round our way it's still common to burn all immediate family. And their cats.

@Tattooed_mummy Love it! 👍

@Tattooed_mummy 😄

@Tattooed_mummy that’s a great way to go!

@Tattooed_mummy <Nokia hidden in base starts ringing>

@Tattooed_mummy

@Tattooed_mummy Reminder to myself: set up an instance

@Tattooed_mummy
😂😂😂😂
@__Chimaera

@Tattooed_mummy well I mean - it sounds a cosy fate? :)

@Tattooed_mummy 😂

@Tattooed_mummy shh! They weren't supposed to know!! 🤐

@Tattooed_mummy #laughreact

@Tattooed_mummy I'm ok with that. 😆

@Tattooed_mummy This is patently untrue!

A surprisingly lifelike clay effigy is buried along with the admins. Each effigy holding the phone or laptop used to interact with the instance.

People need to stop referring to the older academic research on this topic. I know the "buried alive" thing is widely taught in server-lifecycle courses, but there's been new research into the field of social network archeology. In this talk I will...
