@stux @feditips The instance where I had my main account (mstdn.ai) literally did just that. I came home from work on Thursday to find it was gone, with a note apologizing for the short notice. Fortunately I hadn't shut this account down when I set up that one!

@stux @feditips It was disappointing, to be sure. I understand about life getting in the way; I would have liked the opportunity to migrate my account, though.

Are you trying to decide whether to mask when you go out? Here's a quick checklist to help you decide.- Is COVID still airborne?- Is it still super contagious?- Are hundreds of people still dying from it each week? (This might be hard to find, as governments try to hide this information... which should be an indicator in and of itself.)- Does it still cause brain damage?- Cardio-pulmonary damage?- Immune memory erasure?- How much of the above can you, personally, afford?#covid #COVID19

@stux The thing that's worrying me is that the AIs are deliberately being programmed to lie and make shit up instead of saying "I don't know". The end result, especially once you calculate in our current deep fake abilities, is that the internet as a resource for reliable information about *anything* is completely broken.That's terrifying.It's also an opportunity, but it's going to be a FUCK of a lot of work.
