    Peculiar; Facebook appears to be brute forcing registrations on my Mastodon instance. Weird.

    Ok, have fun with this "small" 10MB gzip file that definitely doesn't contain 10GB worth of 0's if it's decompressed.

        @TheLastOfHisName @DazRunner

        Combine that with a rate limit of 8B/s and chef kiss muah; perfection.

        Yes, I now have hundreds of Established connections that are verrrrryyyyyy sllooooooowllllyyy transferring this "very important information", but so do you Facebook, and whose servers cost more to just sit there waiting 120 days for a 10MB file to be transferred?

          @cdp1337 @TheLastOfHisName @DazRunner would they actually keep the connection for 120 days? I would expect it to time out, and you'd probably run out of ephemeral ports before the 120 days were up if they didn't
