It definitely didn't feel super different to me personally, but I was really ready for a win. I'm reminded of one of my favorite quotes from Night in the Woods. "I believe in a universe that doesn't care, and people who do."

Y’all, I hate to rain on the dead bot parade, but the Yandex data center destruction doesn’t seem to have significantly impacted social media bots. I made temporal graphs of X posts about AfD around the time of the attack and there’s no sign of a sudden dip or residual impact on that conversation.

When we feel the world is cruel, it's not because it or isn't. It's because the universe as a whole isn't capable of giving a shit, while we give so much of a shit we ascribe human traits to anything that can affect anyone. Chaos IS the natural order. But we care SO much, we fight it anyway.
