You are most welcome.

Turns out we already have some clear data, and don't need to speculate.

5 Fingers, + 1 Thumb. LoL

I should totes have that on speed dial. I use it at least monthly.

It's sort of cute when Roman's lawyers appear on face to have no idea why these charges were brought. I can't wait for discovery, when they find out. You may have seen that XKCD comic about how wonderful it is to be the person to learn a new thing, something that nearly everyone in the entire country, if not the world already knows. Enjoy your new found knowledge, Mr. Altman.

Cool, another fine. Where's that Piped bot when you need 'em? Ah, here it is on Invidio.us (https://invidious.materialio.us/watch?v=8BXoYYwwCFw)

I've been watching the Aptera progress for years. I hope they can get to a saleable product. So efficient!

Dude's a superhero, and needn't be a 'lone ranger'. Agreed. As the Fediverse expands, it will be the work of many; it just has to be that way.

Oh Honey!
