Looks like my first time hearing about those is from them being removed

Evil if true

Nono, just joking. I’ve recently been noticing that practically everything I see is Nestlé under a different brand 😂

The issue is... I think it's gonna be hard to find a non-Nestle candy.

Exactly, the bottom 10% don’t have enough money, meaning that any money you give them will go towards consumption. The top bracket’s spending as % of income or wealth is tiny and is mostly independent of their income. Their money is spent on investments, not basic goods and services. They practically don’t affect inflation.

I think money should be printed during periods of low inflation. E.g. Japan could have benefited from that. After this bout is over, governments can return to printing, carefully.

Well, you can disagree without being angry. I in general think that anger is a liability, not an asset. It hinders debate and argumentation.

Ah, I was talking about the demand for commodities/services.

Either store that data yourself or rely on your servers to store it and distribute it, just like they do today.

I think it's already split out!

If I had to propose something, I’d suggest writing a spec and implementing an API for Lemmy servers that would allow one to submit signed actions, like posts, comments, likes, display name, etc. Then people will write clients that will allow generation of certificates to be used to sign those messages + add the ability to export/back up the key to be used by other apps too.

I think people who actually understood crypto used it correctly. It's just that most people were there to speculate and gamble. And, tbh, I think crypto is here to stay.

Yup, I'd support an option to store the key on a server. Or just use an account tied to a server, just like now. Currently, servers sign all messages to other instances with their key, so all messages are tied to the identity of the instance!

If storage space ever becomes an issue, you could potentially shard communities. I'm more worried about the network traffic. I already suggested a routing algorithm that would spread the load between all federated instances and would scale like O(log(N)). There was some interest, but it would be a long term project. There's still a lot of performance that can be gained by simple optimisations.

Yeah, I know. It is possible to implement it though. Posts and comments are cached in every federated server, the only thing you need is attribution to the author. Your key/certificate could be your identity.

 

As it says in the title, trying to report a post returns error 400.

 

I've yet to make an account on Mastodon and I'm wondering, how good are its consistency guarantees? Do posts get lost? Will they eventually get to all federated instances?

From my Lemmy experience, posts do get lost here, from time to time. Is it the same on Mastodon?

 

Think about it - all the most easily extracted fossil fuels, the stuff near the surface, are already exhausted. And, to transition to sustainable energy, you have to bootstrap manufacturing with fossil fuels, since mainstream sustainable energy requires photovoltaic cells and controllers and electronics.
