The peering agreements are based on network traffic of the customers. Passing through costs to customers is always a thing.

Peering agreements have been around for a long time on the internet, they're part the backbone of the internet.
Peering agreements for internet traffic, what a stupid concept.

Tux is a blackbelt in Karate, and has many combat skills including using Katanas and flips (which he learned from Kat and Ana). Tux also has an iq of 135. He's also a skilled Marksman. He's good at driving, can slide on his belly, and is resistant to extreme cold, being a penguin. He's also a good general, and of course, he's great at using Computers. Mostly Linux, but he can use Windows a bit too. He's especially good at Emulation.
LOL
At least I got a laugh out of it. It does seem pretty useless as a reference though.

How would this help? What is the problem this addresses?

Many of the functions provided by a Mastodon service is split into separate services in the AT Protocol. This means there are instances that just handle an end users data, instances that just handle indexing and streaming out the amalgamated end user data being streamed to the "relay", there are instances that are just filtering the stream from the indexing relay. so basically the various backend parts are modular with the AT Protocol rather than monolithic as is assumed by the ActivityPub protocol where separation is assumed to be only between the frontend and backend of the service.

Bluesky is probably going to capture more of that than Mastodon. But threads is similarly struggling to develop it as well and they have very low barrier for new signups for anyone with a Facebook or Instagram account.

Many people are most interested in profit as their only KPI and mastodon puts up a lot of hurdles for those people.

Anything that you're not willing and able to keep financially sustained yet rely upon will likely be used against you by someone with more resources. This is why groups like Fosstodon, Beehaw, and Fedihosting Foundation stand out in these spaces. They are both transparent and financially sustainable. But most of that sustainability relies on unpaid volunteer labor.

Bluesky has no documentation for running a relay (indexing node). It doesn't seem like they intend to have any documentation on it any time soon. But it is possible to set one up yourself. I don't know anyone that has done so.

Whenever this guy gets out of prison, he’ll have his wages garnished and the money that he owes will be paid back.

You can even question if the compiled version running on an instano is the same as the version posted to GitHub. There's no way to even check what's running on the server you don't have access to.
Trust is necessary at some level if your going to participate on any hosted or federated service as you pointed out.

I agree with just about everything you said, except that it won't be a technical can of worms to implement the change according to the devs.

Seems like a good strategy would be to not have every post and comment shown to you if your goal is to break your habit of spending too much time on your phone or PC.

This was organized crime by a corrupt school official. This isn't petty crime. So I don't think this situation is one of those that "does nothing useful" to have severe consequences. Additionally, your dismissal of the circumstances around the crime seems odd. This person stole from the most vulnerable where restitution isn't possible because we don't have time machines and they stole an amount that restitution is beyond the means of the thief without further commiting theft or fraud.
Jail is the best option here. I think the sentencing could be lighter and the parole and probation system should be fixed, but there's not much better to be done in a scenario like this.
Also I think making kids starve constitues violence.

Probably independently owned and operated, non-franchised restaurants. Fast food franchisees generally aren't around the day to day operations and are contractually obligated to buy supplies from the franchise. But it's not impossible that one is dumb enough or desperate enough to do something like that.

there’s tremendous value in repairing and upgrading existing things.
Value created doesn't translate to value extracted and VCs and managers and marketers and the general public fork over more money in exchange for new shiny than old, reliable, maintained. There are few exceptions.

Over 6 months and over a month, I think most users with multiple accounts use their accounts at least once to post, comment, or vote. So it wouldn't surprise me if active users to active accounts was 1:2

The worst consequence is that you get stuck with 4 days of food and water and no one comes through that can help for a week. Cell phones don't work everywhere, maybe a satcom subscription and equipment could help, but a rescue is going to be way more expensive than whatever fines they are issuing.

No. I think that there are enough users with multiple accounts including bots that it wouldn't surprise me if the ratio of active users to active accounts is 1:2.

Each story seems to be priced at $1 to $2 or around $5 for a collection for non-prime subscribers. Each ebook is also bundled with an audio book (for prime subscribers at no extra cost). Kindle (.mobi) format only so best accessed with a Kindle device, but also accessible via Kindle Web, Android, iOS apps as well as other options if you're savvy enough to figure that out. Looks like the free offer is for US prime subscribers only. There is a email newsletter for notifications of new collections. Other newsletter options look useful too.

This was helpful in changing the settings in my OneTouch Reveal glucose monitoring app on Android to something more meaningful. The default settings are not intended to be appropriate for everyone (and I suspect that it's wrong for the vast majority). Talk to your doctor about it.
