Im rewatching harry potter and the half prince... I realized that Severus originally was a death eater, then became a double agent for albus during the first wizarding war, then when Voldemort returned he convinced them he was a triple agent and was actually always working for Voldemort... but in fact he was a quadruple agent and was, in fact working for the order of the phoenix all along.

I love harry potter and all but man JK Rowling was not the best at realism :)

@freemo I think it was meant to be taken as he really did side with the death eaters, but gave it up at great risk for love.

@obi Well yes, originally in the first wizarding world whenn he first joined the death eaters it was sincere... but then (for love) he became a double agent... then he became a triple agent... and thenn we learn he was really a quadruple agent all along :)

@freemo I guess I see it as he is a death eater, even when being a double and quadruple agent, and his love for Lilly was so strong that he betrayed his kind. Interesting to think about his motivations though, if there was more.

@obi I think we are basically saying the same thing.

@freemo On a side note. Have you checked your servers performance in the past half hour. Seeing noticeable delays even in typing. New wave the cause?

@obi Typing should be affected only by thing happening on your machine. This might very well include your (web?) client being busy, but the server being busy should not cause that effect (other than maybe when you're typing a mention). @freemo

@robryk Strange. 5 tabs open, 3 Mastodon, 1 Tweetdeck, and email, a few other apps open, nothing else was doing the slowed typing, just assumed it had to be this instance. I've never seen it before, strange. @freemo

@obi Was any of your mastodon tabs backlogged (i.e. had lots of posts that weren't displayed yet and was presenting a "NNN new items" entry at the very top)? @freemo

@robryk Nope, all running free. Was at the top of all columns. I'd freak out if I wasn't. If I scroll down, I click the top tab to get back to the top. All the column were moving, in all instances, only the input box for toots was slow @freemo

@obi

Cant think of any other reason that would happen that I've heard of happening before then...

@robryk

@freemo Oh well, all working fine now. Thanks! @robryk

@obi

Let me know if any problems come back :)

@robryk

@freemo Thanks, will do. I was trying to add my 3 fav instances, this being my fav, to the Sengi App but it didn't work. Get 504 app for qoto, but not the others. Figured you didn't allow api access, but that idea was squashed when i just added qoto to Tusky. Oh well, who knows, probably a Sengi issue. @robryk
