Sure, but if it wasn't for vulture capitalism trying to cut every cent possible, it'd be a minor increase in cost to make these systems degrade gracefully. Then at worst it'd still function as the equivalent 'dumb' device.

What subject, and was it time limited? If there was any chance of not finishing in time I'd probably leave those until last.

This is an absolutely braindead lazy take.

The same professional journalists who've worked at these big media corporations have used the substack platform to open up sites in droves so they can focus on more niche topics, or just escape the censorship of owners and advertisers.

If you think that legitimate news can only come from a company owned by billionaires, then you're wrong.

Oh, so Rust is like JavaScript!

Like I get it, they don't want someone torrenting 100tb of data in a day. That bogs things down.

No, that isn't accurate and isn't getting it.

All the data caps today are for total cumulative quantity per billing cycle. That is not a reliable method for controlling what actually bogs things down, which is the bandwidth used at any moment (speed).

Limiting bandwidth is also done by most ISPs today, but that's not what this is asking to change. The data caps are exclusively a way to charge more.

Which type of performance? Surely not fuel economy/emissions?

Shouldn't the pipeline have failed unless the functional tests passed?

This is the equivalent of saying that MS Outlook is a community. It's not and neither is Lemmy. Each server has its own rules, and each community on those servers can add rules beyond that.

Address a specific community or server, there's no central control over the fediverse.

How many cops has she arrested or ticketed? This is a foundational component of the calculation.

Almost every state requires some manner of concealed carry permit

Are you intentionally untruthful or just ignorant?

Is your definition of "almost every" LESS THAN HALF?

These are facts which are easy to look up and here you are spreading misinformation.

One way would be by implementing features the Lemmy devs have no interest in such as better interoperability with other fediverse platforms. If any added feature turns out to be well received and in demand, it would pressure the others to implement similar.
