That reminds me - we have bats nesting in one of the walls of our house. We want to move them to a better location (we want to put up a bat-house) on the outside of the wall; we don't want to harm the bats - we kinda like them being around.

How I started my #caturday - with Nibbler on my long lap, TLC leaning on me (which for her is practically lap-sitting), and my husband folding laundry on his side of the bed. #CatsOfMastodon #CatsOfInfoSec #TheLadyCatherine #TheLadyCatherineAndNibbler #Nibbler

Scene on a bed in a sunny bedroom. My legs are sausages under the striped comforter. A fluffy brown tabby stretches out in a fine cat baguette, his head and shoulders between my feet, tail and his feet tucked, turning his head toward me. On the outside of my legs leans a chubby brown tabby with shiny fur and stripes in almost a wood grain pattern, also in a cat baguette form but with one tiny white paw sticking out. Piled next to her are some folded t-shirts and sweatshirts.

With only 24 hours of uptime (a little less, actually), media storage is already growing rapidly.

Self-hosting is already making me appreciate those who run large instances *so* much more. I can see myself having to scale up within a month or less just to cover this experiment.
